To help people experiencing the same struggle to find a good barber, Omile teamed with his best friend, Kush Patel, to launch theCut, a minority-owned software company providing tech solutions for barbershops. The 4-year-old company primarily manages a mobile marketplace connecting barbers with clients nationwide. The biggest struggle, however, has been gaining access to venture capital and raising funds, in general. “When some of our peers were able to raise with just an idea, it’s been harder for us because investors we’re speaking with don’t have context, which makes it harder for them to see the vision,” Omile told Lifewire over email....

The feature, called Kids Clips, is rolling out to some of Netflix’s users starting this week, according to Bloomberg. Kids Clips is currently being tested on the Netflix iOS app, and it includes short clips from the streaming giant’s library of children’s shows and movies.

Starting today, apps on the Google Play Store will have to mandatorily share details about their data collection and sharing practices, which will be listed under the new Data Safety section. However, as some people have noticed, Google now expects people to trust these developer-provided privacy considerations instead of the old Google-generated list of privacy permissions. “We know that to meaningfully engage users, software systems themselves must inspire trust, and any effort to that end on their part is undercut by an app store that presents self-disclosure as its policy,” Vuk Janosevic, CEO of privacy software vendor, Blindnet, told Lifewire over email....

Dubbed CloudMensis, the previously unknown spyware, spotted by researchers at ESET, exclusively uses public cloud storage services such as pCloud, Dropbox, and others to communicate with the attackers, and for exfiltrating files. Worryingly, it exploits a plethora of vulnerabilities to bypass macOS’ built-in protections to steal your files. “Its capabilities clearly show that the intent of its operators is to gather information from the victims’ Macs by exfiltrating documents, keystrokes, and screen captures,” wrote ESET researcher Marc-Etienne M....

What Is an ODS File? A file with the .ODS file extension is most likely an OpenDocument spreadsheet that contains typical spreadsheet data, like text, charts, pictures, formulas, and numbers, all placed within the confines of a sheet full of cells.

How to Open an ODS File OpenDocument spreadsheet files can be opened with the free Calc program that comes as part of the OpenOffice suite....

OnePlus shared the update information on its official forums on Tuesday, noting that it is now available in the North American region, with releases in other regions to follow soon.

Today’s video presentation introduced both the OPPO Find X5 and the OPPO Find X5 Pro, with the Find X5 Pro being the somewhat more advanced (and costly) of the two models. It has the kind of features you’d expect from a ‘Pro’ model, like a slightly larger display with a higher resolution, increased RAM, and a better GPU. But it’s the Hasselblad camera system, which is the same between the Find X5 and the Find X5 Pro, that OPPO spent the most time detailing....

Specifically, running certain (unspecified) applications can see processor speeds drop up to 5%—or up to 15% in some games. This is caused by either the processor’s cache suddenly taking up to three times as long to access or some tasks being mistakenly handed off to a slower processor core. The report goes on to state that any of its Windows 11-compatible processors could be affected....

The radio signal is sent by microwave to a similar microwave receptor on the grounds where the transmitter and tower reside. The microwave communication is then converted into a signal that is broadcast to the general public. It is not uncommon for a radio station’s studios to be located 10, 15, or 30 miles away from the transmitter and tower....
