Google has unveiled a range of tools focused on “digital wellbeing”, designed to help people disconnect from their phones. “Our team has heard so many stories from people trying to find the right balance with technology,” said Sameer Samat, vice-president, product management, adding that although people find their devices useful, they would prefer to spend some of the time spent staring at a screen “on better things”. The focus on digital wellbeing comes at a time when technology companies are being scrutinised for the habit-forming design practices that encourage people to spend more time on their devices, such as infinite scrolling, notifications and other behavioural “nudges”.

Western intelligence yesterday revealed the trail of clues that bungling Russian spies known as Unit 26165 left in their wake as they waged a war of disinformation across the globe. Kremlin agents working for the GRU targeted FIFA, the World Anti-Doping Agency and the Organisation for the Prevention of the use of Chemical Weapons as it investigated both the Salisbury novichok attack in the UK as well as the Douma chemical weapons attack in Syria, the international investigation of the downing of MH17 and a US company providing nuclear power to Ukraine.  President Vladimir Putin's elite squad even created the fake 'hacktivist' group Fancy Bears to disseminate misleading statements designed to exonerate Russia of doping allegations and instead level them at the US.

One catch is that Uber’s policy bans developers from also integrating hooks into any other competing car service, like Lyft.

Still, something was missing from my space flight setup. While both eyes and both hands had something to do, my feet remained unoccupied. I had two whole unused appendages that could be employed to make my spaceships do more things at once. Clearly this had to change, and there was only one solution—rudder pedals were my next step. Further ReadingI’m not crazy (but I did buy a $450 HOTAS Warthog joystick) But which pedals? There’s a smorgasbord of joystick choices that run the price gamut from cheap to ludicrous, but rudder pedals didn’t appear to cover the same range. The "high end" options all look like variations on the same sad plastic theme. I … [Read more...] about Want high-end flight sim pedals? Put $500 in a Polish bank account and contact Slaw
