The online malware analysis tools that are still present on the Internet are presented below. Each of the tools has a letter written in square brackets, which is used later on to present each of the tools in a table in order to preserve space and provide clearer results....

It’s possible that future games in The Division series may take place in other countries. This is quite the development for a series that’s largely been propelled by the narrative that the United States has more or less collapsed in the wake of bioterrorism. The Division 2 is already shifting the setting from New York City to Washington, D.C. in what should be a much-improved sequel to the original title....

We’re a mere week and change before Apple announces its new iPad lineup with iOS 11 and we’re expecting some Pro features to really stand out. I’ve run down 5 things I’d love to see next week… Multi-user logins Right now I use two different iPads — one for work and one for personal stuff. Although I’m definitely in the minority when it comes to such a setup, multi-user login support would go a long way towards making the iPad Pro a more professional-oriented device....

Smartphones these days are packed with zeal. They are capable to accomplish anything assigned to them by the users. Manufacturers are continuously struggling to make them powerful in addition to paying attention to elegance. Leagoo P11 becomes the central point of attraction in the smartphone market recently. This smartphone packs a lot of features and is known for its looks and style. Probably this is one of the finest devices to be trusted in this year....

Apple Podcasts is the AM to Apple Music’s FM. The two apps should be almost on par at all times, particularly now that the company is turning podcasts into an app that includes paid subscriptions. The app hasn’t always gotten the love it deserves, but that’s starting to change. There are lots of ways Apple could take the podcasts app to the next level as it enters into a new era....

Since the introduction of a new retail design language in 2015, Apple has remodeled or moved well over 60 of its existing stores in order to better serve the growing demand for Apple products and customer support. The majority of these refreshed stores have been among the earliest opened, some dating back to the start of Apple’s in-house retail efforts in 2001. Surprisingly, one of the last early stores remaining relatively unchanged and in dire need of expansion is located in Bloomington’s Mall of America....

Constantine is all set to return as an animated series on the CW Seed, and now we have the first poster. While The CW has turned out four series so far set in the Arrowverse, that hasn’t stopped a number of shows focusing on DC characters from appearing on other networks. Even Supergirl began life as a CBS series. And then there’s Constantine. When Constantine debuted on NBC, it featured plenty of nods to DC Comics....

Apple made a big deal about the new iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus cameras, but since the announcement of the devices there’s been debate about just how much better the cameras actually are. Our own Jeff Bejanmin has noted of some of the differences with the camera, and now Consumer Reports is out with their analysis of the changes… Consumer Reports says that as for the new cameras, the single 12MP camera setup does not produce images that are “significantly better” than the images produced by the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus....

After I wrote my roundup of best email apps on iPhone, I received a number of emails and direct messages from apps I didn’t take a look at. One of them was Spike. I checked it out, and I was blown away by its unique take on email. In fact, it’s the first time an email app has felt fresh to me since I first used Gmail in 2004. Spike takes a cue from an app like iMessage or Facebook Messenger, and it brings that same look to email....

As gruesome and nightmarish as it may appear on-screen, the horrific reverse bear trap featured in Saw and its sequels was inspired by real life torture devices of the middle ages. Existing in various incarnations or upgrades throughout the franchise, the device was instantly iconic the moment it appeared in the first film. The reverse bear trap is to the Saw franchise what Hannibal Lecter’s mask was to Silence of the Lambs....

Monroe’s exercise in practical economics is a good example of one of the complaints Cambridge economist Diane Coyle makes in Cogs and Monsters: What Economics Is, and What It Should Be: the false belief that the profession is neutral and objective. As Coyle writes, the choice and design of the index that underlies how we calculate benefits payments ensures that there will be winners and losers. The choice, therefore, cannot be values-neutral....

The iPhone 8 reports to date mostly point to Apple embedding the Home button and a new type of fingerprint sensor into the display itself, as a way to lose most of the ‘chin’ of the device. Today, however, the sketchiest of reports suggests that the company will instead move the existing Touch ID sensor to the rear of the phone. The report mixes this in with a raft of things we’ve heard before....

A Counterpoint blog post today questions whether the planned ‘massive overhaul’ of Apple Maps is too little, too late. For a company which boasts of saying no a thousand times for every time it says yes, Apple Maps always seemed like a strange project to green-light, but I think there were a couple of reasons for it … Apple will have to pour in hundreds of millions of dollars every year to collect, parse and integrate maps, transit and traffic data....

Apple has long been the dominant player in the podcast market. However, while Apple Podcasts has evolved quite a bit since the “tape player” 1.0 version, it’s not perfect. Today, I want to look at the good, the bad, and the ugly of Apple Podcasts with a particular focus on how the app still struggles to sync across multiple devices. I’ve been listening to podcasts since 2004, so I consider myself somewhat of a veteran of the industry....

There are situations when we have to be present at different locations at the same time. However, the same is not always possible. It’s mainly due to no other reason than the time which bounds us. However, technology is rising upto an extent which is making this almost possible. I am talking about our smartphones. The biggest benefit they are giving us is to make our closed ones feel as we are physically present to them when we are actually not....

Apple has been releasing iOS software updates at an incredibly rapid pace. The betas just keep coming, both for developers and for public beta testers. But to enroll yourself in either program, you need to go through either Apple’s developer website or through Apple’s public beta website. It also requires the installation of a profile that switches the software update track your phone is on.

The first episodes of Marvel’s Cloak & Dagger have finally aired on Freeform, but don’t expect them to give you the lowdown on just how the two teens’ powers work. This is an origin story, and Tandy and Tyrone have only just discovered their mysterious abilities. That means explanations are in short supply. Making matters even more complicated, Cloak & Dagger has clearly rewritten the heroes’ origin story. Tandy and Tyrone seem to have been connected from birth, with some sort of mystical bond making them a “divine pairing....
