As Americans work to become healthier in everyday life, it is important to know both the benefits and drawbacks of different cooking styles, so you know what works best for you and your family. Air-fryers have become extremely popular in recent years, but is it true that air-frying is better than oven-baking? Before you hit the kitchen for your next meal, this is what you need to know about air-frying vs....
After announcing in August it would be heading down this route as part of its Digital Platform Services Inquiry, the ACCC on Thursday released a new issues paper [PDF] that hopes to gather information on online retail marketplaces, ahead of preparing a report for the Treasurer in March 2022. “While general online retail marketplaces provide benefits to sellers and consumers, concerns have been raised to the ACCC about the conduct of some marketplaces and the risk of harm to both sellers and consumers,” it said....
Now, however, you can finally pick up the wireless earbuds on sale.
Still a Kindle for e-reading Also: How to get free e-books on Kindle The higher brightness levels, glare-free Paperwhite display, warmth controls, and 10.2-inch screen make for an awesome reading experience. I only wish there were hardware buttons like I have on my Oasis to easily turn pages. It’s an essential feature to have, especially when handling a tablet this big. The left side bezel is a bit wide, in my opinion, but it does make it easier to hold the tablet with my left hand and write with my right....

According to the blog post, the Android SDK extension will “help make development more flexible and broaden the reach for app developers....
And sometimes benchmarks can be quite unbelievable. This is how I feel about the recent benchmarks for Samsung’s newest flagship smartphone, the Galaxy S22. Now, we’ve already seen benchmarks that show that the Galaxy S22 Ultra and S22+ outpaces all other Android smartphones but is still beaten by the A15 chip in the iPhone 13 Pro Max. But it gets worse. A lot worse. Another benchmark has emerged that shows the Exynos 2200 chip present in some versions of the Galaxy S22 being outperformed by the A13 Bionic chip that powers the iPhone 11 and the current-generation iPhone SE....
The anti-trolling laws, which were introduced into Parliament last month, seek to compel social media platforms into creating complaints schemes that allow people to issue complaints about potential defamatory material and receive information about the poster of that material for the purposes of initiating legal proceedings. According to the EFA, bringing a defamation lawsuit in Australia costs between AU$20,000 to AU$80,000, which it said is prohibitively expensive for most Australians and only an option for a “privileged few”....
The idea behind this feature is that it reduces battery wear by temporarily limiting the maximum battery charge limit to 80 percent and only adding the final 20 percent in time for you to wake up in the morning and start using your iPhone. How does it know when to add that final 20 percent? On-device machine learning. Pretty smart. The technology was later added to MacBooks, Apple Watch, and even the AirPods (interestingly, it was never added to the iPad or the iPod touch)....
“I’m always totally supportive, and I totally think the people behind it are doing the right thing,” Wozniak said in a recent Cameo video. “We wouldn’t have an Apple had I not grown up in a very open technology world.” The video was filmed in response to a question posed by right-to-repair advocate Louis Rossmann. The Woz alluded to his own experience as a young engineer and that open-source tech was instrumental to his ability to learn as an engineer....
Much like Apple’s own mission, it seems the 2022 honorees seek to redefine everyday practices. “This year’s App Store Award winners reimagined our experiences with apps that delivered fresh, thoughtful, and genuine perspectives,” said Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO. The 16 spotlighted apps range from the popular BeReal, inviting people to embrace spontaneity in a highly calculated social media world, to Gentle Streak, the health app that reminds us that recovery is part of the fitness journey....
The updates don’t include many new features, but they do include support for using Security Keys to secure your Apple ID, support for the second generation HomePod, and Apple’s latest Unity wallpaper in support of Black History Month. For those keeping track, Apple released iOS 16.3, iPadOS 16.3, WatchOS 9.3, and MacOS 13.2. Currently missing from the list of available updates are HomePodOS 16.3 and tvOS 16.3. Also: Don’t waste your money on these Apple products I assume both of these updates will follow either later today or at some point in the next couple of days....
The potential for AirTags and similar devices to be used to track and locate unsuspecting people raised privacy concerns when AirTags was first released. The small trackers rely on nearby Apple devices to anonymously crowdsource their location, making it possible for someone to place an AirTag in a car or bag and retain the ability to view its current location. AirTags will begin to beep every few minutes after they’ve been disconnected from the owner for an unspecified amount of time as a way to alert those nearby that the AirTag is present....
Let’s review all the different ways you can juice up your Apple devices. Look what a mess we have So, depending on how many Apple products you own, you may have up to 5 types of charging connectors to deal with and multiple variants of cables and docks that you need to need to own as well, depending on your use case. It’s a mess. Cleaning it up requires a desire to fix the situation Indeed, the low-hanging fruit here for change is iPhone....
The new Studio Display is clearly intended to fill that gap, but its high price – almost as expensive as the all-in-one iMac itself – and some initial teething problems mean that it hasn’t had the same warm welcome as the Mac Studio. Price & options Until it was recently discontinued, Apple’s 27-inch iMac had a starting price of $1,799, which of course included the 5K display along with the iMac’s CPU, GPU, RAM and storage....

Also: What is Artemis? Everything you need to know about NASA’s new moon mission Among the all-star celebrities is Snoopy, who you may recognize as the cute beagle from the comic strip Peanuts. The Snoopy plush has a very important mission onboard the Orion spacecraft: he will serve as a zero-gravity indicator and is even dressed for the occasion. The toy puppy plush, dressed in a NASA spacesuit, will serve as a visual indicator of when the spacecraft hits the weightlessness of microgravity, according to NASA....
Is there a way for IT leaders to be proactive about AI and ML without ruffling and rattling an organization of people who want the miracles of AI and ML delivered tomorrow morning? The answer is yes. The authors of a recent report from MIT Sloan Management Review and SAS advocates a relatively new methodology to successfully accomplish the delivery AI and ML to enterprises called “ModelOps.” While there a lot of “xOps” now entering our lexicon, such as MLOps or AIOps, ModelOps is more “mindset than a specific set of tools or processes, focusing on effective operationalization of all types of AI and decision models....
The country saw an almost 13% increase in the number of reported cybercrime cases to more than 76,000 last year, according to the Annual Cyber Threat Report 2021-2022 released by Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC). This meant there was one reported case every 7 minutes, up from every 8 minutes in the last financial year, the government agency said. Its annual report contains insights from the Australian Federal Police, Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission, Australian Security Intelligence Organisation, Defence Intelligence Organisation, and Department of Home Affairs....
