State supervision as a risk
It seems as if state supervision becomes a good
business for Darknet users. A french marketplace
called “Black Hand” has been recently shut down.
The owner: an employee of the DGSI!

Well it was expectable that once again a big update
wouldn’t run without flaws. The Windows 10 Update
With Build 1809 has been pulled after several data
losses have been reported, although they are known.
This is some interesting kind of protest. An image
sold at Sotheby’s auctions just started to shred
itself after it has been sold for £1 million to an
anonymous buyer. The image was made by Banksy.

What happens if you fill too much carbonized liquid
into a big silo? Watch the following video and you will
see how a silo looks like if it contains too much of
freshly made Most (the base for Prosecco)
Some fun for the weekend. This video shows
various drivers who wreck their cars or get
wrecked in a spectacular way. Again this shows
that driving with way less attention will end bad!
Again Apple’s iOS12 is subject to reveal secured data.
Yet the process is really complex and might need a
second phone as well as Siri being activated in the lock
screeen. Most users should hence be safe though!
Travelling gets even more difficult at this time. It already
starts with the arrival at the airport at the travel destination.
In the USA for example, you can be forced to unlock your
personal phone protected by FaceID / TouchID if needed!
It seems as if the project of bendable phones
isn’t buried at all. Lenovo shows a prototype of
a bendable phone in a short video. However it
looks kinda odd and it has a strange aspect ratio.
Spitting is already disgusting if someone hits
you with it. But if you order a meal in a restau-
rant you certainly don’t want it in your meal!
This worker must have had a very bad day!
With the release of the so-called GrayKey it
seemed as if even the newest iPhones were
prone to being hacked easily. Although there
were some hurdles to take.
We all know this tiny 3×3-tiled cube with 6 colors that
made many of us fall in despair when trying to solve it.
There are people, however, who manage to solve it in
a blazing fast speed. Also robots can do that well.
Chrome and Google are known for it’s
aggressive data collection behaviour.
But with Chrome version 69, Google has
reached a new level of privacy breach.
Security leaks are always a nuisance. The 0day leak
that is shown below is a tool that allows access to
private Data, such as the Address Book and other
files of the user. And this without any prompts!
So while the heat has come down from Apple’s Event and
the published iPhone XS line, it seems as if Huawei wants
to steal the show from Apple. They say that their new
processor “Kirin 980” is faster than Apple’s A12 Bionic.
Is NVidia running out of good ideas or is fake
marketing the new business to sell hardly faster
graphics chips at a higher price? If you read all
the negative comments on different news sites…
As if ads and commercials on TV weren’t enough
already, buyers of Xaomi Mi phones with MIUI
will see “recommendations” all over the Android
environment. Luckily you can get rid of them.
Art can be defined in various ways. In America
it seems, however, that casting anthills is common.
Some artists cast ant hills of rogue fire ants with
liquid aluminum. The result is stunning, however.
Now this is what you don’t see often. A bunch of
squirrels got into a miserable situation while in
their nest. Five squirrels had such bad luck when
their tails entangled. Luckily they were found.
While many people are taking a big gulp seeing the new
iPhone prices, investors seem to be happy with the way
Apple is making the prices for each of their currently
available iPhone models. The customers hate it though!
In a suburb of London a rat has invaded a McDonalds
restaurant. In Croydon, where the mcDonalds is situa-
ted, the rodent has found a way into the restaurant.
The clerks were quick with the brooms and evicted it.
If you thought, a high tech car with a value of over
100’000 US$ cannot be stolen easily, then you’d better
not watch the following video. A team of the catholic
University Leuven in Belgium shows how.
Well, it’s hard to imagine but have you ever thought
that your dog could make you a very special gift?
A homeowner in the USA. Interesting to see that he
dragged the hose though all areas of the house.
Most people are afraid of snakes. And even I would
not like to be close to these except I can be sure that
they’re not biting or poisonous. A python is not poi-
sonous and rarely bites (just if in danger or hunting).
This monday a driver was on the wrong lane on a
highway close to Airport Lyon. But later he decided
to breach the security fence and drive onto the peri-
meter of the airport Lyon causing a huge chaos.
If you think as a teen you’re safe from being arrested
think again. The following story is about 15-years old
Isabella Messer from Hopkinsville, KN who got arrested
for protesting against her school’s dress code.
We all know it from our time as we were kids.
We did something our parents didn’t like much
and we got punished for that. Be it the cutoff of
our allowance or the prohibit to play with our toys.
Airplanes are not very comfortable when you travel
Economy class, that’s for sure. Business class and
First Class have a lot more to offer and private jets
even are much more luxurious on personal space.
Lego did it again. Reproducing real life items is
not always easy. Especially if movement comes
into game! The replication of the real Bugatti
Chiron is hard to distinguish from far away.
Small embedded systems are omnipresent today.
Routers, IoT devices, household devices, every-
where where IT is necessary you will most likely
find a mini-PC embedded in those devices.
Now I’ve seen a lot in the past but this is indeeed
ridiculous. Two guys seem to do a repair while the
driver is in the cabin. But I ask myself several
questions: How does he drive if the engine is off?
This news might be good for Gamers: The sales for
desktop graphics cards have reduced by approx. 30%
as cryptocurrency mining is not very appealing any-
more. Their value has dramatically reduced.
Vertical Mice are nothing new. There’s already a
competitor (Evoluent) on the market. However
the Evoluent mice are at prices beyond 150 Euro.
Will this price tag now fall with Logitech’s mouse?
