— Gabriel Aul (@GabeAul) July 17, 2015 Windows 10 Build 10240 Update Gab Aul announced the news on Twitter late this afternoon. In a response to one Windows Insider, he said ” It will be described as a security update, but that’s just because it’s cumulative and includes the last package’s security fix.” Like we said in our post when Windows 10 build 10240 was released, you can expect several more updates and patches up until, and after the July 29th official release date....

I think this might be one of Microsoft’s first Universal Applications. It also has the installer that is built into XCode…take that for what it is worth. More screenshots and info after the break… Here’s the list of toys that you get: And it is free! (Sorry MacBU at Microsoft.) Universal BinaryRuns natively on both Intel-based and PowerPC-based Macs. Remote Desktop Protocol 6.0Provides better compatibility with Windows Vista, improved security features, and many other improvements....

Windows 10 looks like an amalgamation of Windows 7 and Windows 8. Microsoft has retained the Live Tiles (or Modern UI) of Windows 8, but has brought back the much missed features like Start Menu and shortcuts for Shutdown & restart. “It gives the familiarity of Windows 7 with some of the elements of Windows 8,” said Joe Belfiore. This is how the new start screen looks. You’ll be able to resize the tiles on the Start Menu....

You’ll be able to see the floats the giant balloons from immersive street-level views thanks to 360-degree cameras placed at strategic points along the route. ile it’s arguably more social to watch the traditional NBC broadcast on a large screen with friends family, anyone a closer look can check out the 360-degree view on a laptop—or pull on a Cardboard headset pretend the family disappeared for a few minutes. The parade’s live stream starts on Thursday morning at 9 a....

The official MLB At Bat and NHL apps on iOS have introduced a new update today that allows users to change the app’s icon to their favorite team’s logo. The new feature comes as a part of a developer related change in iOS 10.3 allowing apps to request permission to change the app icons. The MLB.com At Bat and NHL’s usage of the new iOS 10.3 feature is a welcome show of what’s possible with app icon changes....

Microsoft further explained how the Windows 10 S laptops would be designed to support STEM learning and in a way will democratize the education. It’s worth noting that one cannot sideload an app and if they try doing so the Windows 10 S will suggest the same or similar app from the Windows app store for download. Furthermore, the operating system is capable of running a diversified range of hardware including that of entry-level notebooks and Surface Book....

The tech giant Microsoft’s Surface Vice-President Panos Panai was initially expected to come on stage to introduce the second generation of the Surface Book, but the latest rumors indicate that this will not happen. The tech giant Microsoft Surface Book was introduced in October 2015 and was, by now, the most powerful Surface device of the tech giant Microsoft. Meanwhile, the tech giant Microsoft has been announcing new devices and new generations of existing ones but Surface Book has never seen the second generation....

Modern Family is close to ending its run with the final episodes of the 11th season set to resume in early January 2020. Throughout the run of the successful Emmy-winning series, which debuted in 2009, we have followed the Pritchett, Dunphy, and Tucker-Pritchett extended family households as they go about their daily lives. The families all live in suburban Los Angeles, not far from one another. They get together often and are very involved in one another’s lives....

So, it might seem a bit too good to be true when Monoprice comes along with Bluetooth headphones that claim to provide ANC for just $60. While that skepticism turned out to be well-founded during my testing, I still found that the Monoprice SYNC-ANC Bluetooth headphones had a lot going for them, especially with their shaky ANC disabled. I won’t bury the lede. The ANC on these headphones is just not good....

Want a free version of Microsoft Office? Well, perhaps better said a Diet-Coke version of Microsoft Office 2010? Good news, this week Microsoft finally delivered on their push into the online document collaboration realm bringing to market (finally) a competing product to Google Docs and Zoho. Months after the initial announcement and tech preview they’ve finally released Office 2010 online as web apps. You can find them at Office.live.com. Although the online suite is limited in comparison to the desktop version, here are some highlights I’ve noticed after playing with it for a few minutes:...

Windows 10 20H1 Preview Build 18975 Finally. Microsoft is including the ability to move the Cortana window in this build. The default position of the Cortana window has never been ideal. But starting with this Microsoft notes that you can “Move the window (by dragging the title bar area), to anywhere you’d like on the screen–just like you can with other windows.” You start to wonder why this wasn’t a feature of the Cortana app in the past....

The Electronic Frontier Foundation had published a blog post “With Windows 10, Microsoft Blatantly Disregards User Choice and Privacy: A Deep Dive” where they claimed that Windows 10 collects an “unprecedented amount” of data. Amul Kalia, the author of the published blog post, blasted Microsoft’s attempt to push Windows 10 install “The tactics Microsoft employed to get users of earlier versions of Windows to upgrade to Windows 10 went from annoying to downright malicious....

Since the rate of remote work has considerably witnessed a growth over the years, the need for online facilities has uniformly increased too. And so, at these times, the requirement for reliable online video calling services is more than ever. Surely, Zoom and Microsoft Teams are two of the most trusted names, yet a debatable matter as to which one holds better facilities. But people still want to choose between the two so today we will test both the platforms out in Microsoft Teams vs....

Earlier in the month, Microsoft rebranded its corporate UC client from Lync to Skype for Business on the Windows platform. Although Microsoft has said we won’t see an update on Mac until end-of-year, I had assumed that meant they would give mobile users a refresh. I guess not, at least not in May. Lync for iPhone Version 5.7.563 Details Unfortunately I can’t share a lot of details as to what the update includes since Microsoft left the release notes fairly vague… Bug Fixes…....

Now it looks like something is finally being done about them.

Naomi Harris stars in Black and Blue, but she’s backed up by an incredible ensemble cast that includes Mike Colter (Luke Cage) Nafessa Williams (Black Lightning), and Frank Grillo (Captain America: The Winter Soldier). Colter plays a ruthless criminal kingpin, while Grillo plays his opposite number in the police force, a crooked cop who uses the plight of post-Katrina New Orleans to line his own pockets with blood money. Meanwhile, Williams plays a gangster’s moll who quietly laments the righteous path she was too scared to take when she was but a young girl....

As Modern Family enters its final season this fall, we can’t help but look back at all of the relationships the characters have gone through. Each relationship has helped to shape a character’s development, but some were just too weird to watch. Ultimately, some of these relationships were loved by fans, while others just didn’t fly. Of course, we are all behind the main relationships and marriages that create the core balance of the show....

Microsoft took the wraps off its Azure-powered Mesh mixed-reality collaboration platform at Build in May 2021. Later, at Ignite in the fall, officials said they planned to bring Mesh to Teams and would make available a preview of Mesh for Teams in 2022 that would feature a set of pre-build immersive spaces for meetings and mixers and later, tools for customers to create their own custom spaces.
