Design: Eye-catching and functional Because the Flip series is JBL’s most popular portable Bluetooth line, the Flip 5 ends up being the de-facto flagship of the lineup. The cylinder chassis with a directionally fired main driver and two gimmicky pulsing “subs” on the ends of the device has been the go-to design for JBL for a few generations, but it’s also been copied by the likes of Ultimate Ears and countless overseas manufacturers....

However, there are a couple of areas where Kaspersky falls short of the mark. The first is in iOS offerings. There are a few tools available for iOS from Kaspersky—Security Cloud, Password Manager, Safe Kids, Safe Browser, Secure Connection, and QR Scanner—but no antivirus scanner. Kaspersky also has a reporting feature, called Kaspersky Security Network (KSN), that takes liberal rights with what it collects and reports about not only the scans that Kaspersky antivirus products conduct, but also about your system and the data on your system that is examined by the application....

What Is Kids Mode on Microsoft Edge? When you turn on Kids Mode in Microsoft Edge, Edge will enable a content filter limiting which sites your child can visit.

Kids Mode in Microsoft Edge also fills the entire screen, so your child won’t be distracted by your desktop or tempted to click on your taskbar and open other applications....

What Is a KML File? A file with the .KML file extension is a Keyhole Markup Language file. KML files use XML to express geographic annotation and visualization by storing locations, image overlays, video links and modeling information like lines, shapes, 3D images and points.

The Yoga Tab 13 looks to be the same model as the 13-inch Yoga Pad Pro, which was released in China earlier this year, with the biggest difference being global availability; the Yoga Tab 13 will become available globally in July. The Yoga Tab 13 will likely work very well as an external monitor for other devices like the Nintendo Switch, in addition to its more standard functions. The Yoga Tab 13 features a built-in stand that allows you to adjust the viewing angle when placed on a surface, but also functions as both a carrying handle and a way to hang it on the wall....

Lenovo’s ThinkPad X1 Nano promises all the productivity of a larger, heavier laptop is one of the thinnest, lightest laptops available today. It weighs just two pounds but packs Intel’s latest Core processors with Intel Xe graphics and a 13-inch display. That’s an impressive feat at a glance. Is the X1 Nano a featherweight champ, or does it give under pressure? Design: Classic ThinkPad I’m surprised how effortlessly the classic ThinkPad look transitions to the ultra-modern, superlight ThinkPad X1 Nano....

Scientists from the US Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory say they have taken another step towards building a new kind of computer that uses quantum bits, or qubits. The technique involves spraying electrons from a light bulb’s filament, according to a recent paper in the peer-reviewed journal Nature. Michael Nizich, a computer science professor at the New York Institute of Technology, who was not involved in the paper, called the Argonne research “quite important” in an email interview with Lifewire....

Startup Keyboard Shortcuts With startup keyboard shortcuts, you change the default behavior of your Mac when it starts up. You can enter special modes, such as Safe mode or Single-User mode, both of which are troubleshooting environments, or you can use startup shortcuts to select a boot device other than the default startup drive you usually use. The many startup shortcuts are gathered here. Using a Wired Keyboard When you use a wired keyboard, enter the keyboard shortcut combinations immediately after pressing the Mac’s power switch....

While there’s certainly joy in a child ripping open a box and immediately playing with whatever treasured toy is within, there’s also a pleasure in building something amazing from pieces. With the Makeblock mBot, what your child builds can come to life as a pretty awesome little machine. The mBot isn’t the only DIY, coding-centric robot kit on the market designed for young minds and STEM-focused parents, but the relative ease of build and use—not to mention the reasonable price point—make it a compelling option....

According to a post on McAfee’s blog, the team reported this issue to Peloton a few months ago and the companies began working together to develop a patch. The patch has since been tested, confirmed to be effective on June 4, and began rolling out last week. Typically, security researchers wait until vulnerabilities have been patched until announcing the issue. The exploit made it possible for hackers to use their own software loaded via USB thumb drive to manipulate the Peloton Bike+ operating system....

That first job was at a robust nonprofit in Washington, DC under an educational pilot program, where she served as a program assistant and social media strategist. After learning different Adobe applications and programming languages, she decided to bring all of her expertise under one umbrella and venture into entrepreneurship. After doing similar work as a freelancer for a year in 2019, Dent founded Orcinus Media in 2020 as a company that provides technological support and content development to small businesses, nonprofits and organizations in an effort to increase their online visibility....

Luckily, the perspective on these products comes into focus when you consider a few key ideas. Microsoft’s Marketing Challenge Got Desktop Users to Adopt Microsoft 365 It does seem that Microsoft is at times using these two different product names interchangeably to lead consumers to switch from desktop versions of Microsoft Office to the cloud-based Microsoft 365. The blended approach is also due to product evolution. The lite versions of program apps previously available under the name ‘Microsoft 365’ have now grown into a cloud experience that includes the full desktop versions....

In particular, the Edge browser will get a new scrollbar design called “overlay scrollbars,” according to Windows Latest. The new overlay scrollbar design reportedly will match other Windows 11 apps and hide the scrollbars from view when you don’t need them. Members of the Edge Insider program can experience the new look (as long as you’re running the latest build of Canary), but for everyone else, the feature will be available once Windows 11 debuts in October....

Context: More and more people are working from home (Microsoft’s Puget Sound workforce of 50,000 and tens of thousands of global employees are all remote workers now) due to the pandemic COVID-19 crisis. What they said: “We have seen an unprecedented spike in Teams usage,” writes Microsoft in a blog post, “and now have more than 44 million daily users, a figure that has grown by 12 million in just the last seven days....

Microsoft says: “Beginning with Windows 10, version 2004, all new Windows 10 systems will be required to use 64-bit builds and Microsoft will no longer release 32-bit builds for OEM distribution,” wrote the company in its documentation. Earlier versions of Windows will continue to get 32-bit support, however, as the hardware included typically won’t support 64-bit code. Advantages of 64-bit: A 64-bit processor can handle 64 bits of data at once, which lets it process information faster than a 32-bit processor....

What is a Motherboard RAM Slot? RAM slots are often found in pairs and are sometimes color-coded for identification. We should note that RAM slots in a desktop look different than RAM slots in a laptop. A RAM module is rectangular and has a connector on one of the long sides. RAM slots or sockets on a PC motherboard are long channels, generally located close to the CPU. There are clasps on each end of the socket, which will snap tight around the edge of the RAM when plugged in....

A Thunderbolt dock is like a deluxe USB hub. It will let you connect not just USB drivers and peripherals, but also connect to monitors, Ethernet, audio devices, and more. I’ve been using a CalDigit TS3+ Thunderbolt dock with a Mac mini for the past few weeks, and it’s pretty good. The CalDigit TS3+ At $250, the CalDigit TS3+ is one of the most recommended docks around. It’s Wirecutter’s top pick, and reading around the web, there’s almost nobody saying anything bad about it....

The exploit was discovered by security researcher jonhat, who shared his findings on Twitter in a video detailing the process. Tech news site Bleeding Computer replicated the access and stated it took 2 minutes to gain admin privileges on a Windows 10 computer. The way the exploits works is through Razer’s Synapse software, which is a hardware configuration tool. When someone plugs in a Razer device, a mouse, for example, into their Windows 10 or Windows 11 PC, the computer will download Synapse to configure the device and allow various functions to be available....
