Apple recently voiced concerns over the potential sale of its customer data as part of RadioShack’s bankruptcy filing. As an authorized reseller of Apple’s products, RadioShack is sitting on a collection of customer data of Apple product owners. According to Law360, Apple has formally objected to any data on its product sales through RadioShack being made available for sale citing the reseller agreement between the two companies and its interest of protecting personal data....

While we didn’t see a new Apple Watch at WWDC, it’s still very possible that it’ll be revealed this fall, alongside all other Apple hardware that we typically see. One of the changes that could be made is the removal of physical buttons, in favor of solid state ones. Fast Company reports that Apple will replace the physical Side button and Digital Crown, in favor of touch-sensitive solid state buttons. The report notes that the Digital Crown still physically scrolls in order to navigate through content, but the button press itself will be simulated through Apple’s Taptic Engine....

As is the case with many other Apple products, AppleCare+ for the Apple Watch will be offered at the time of purchase within physical Apple Retail Stores and the Apple Online Store. If Apple does indeed replace an Apple Watch under AppleCare+, there will likely be a deductible price for replacement, which will be far less than replacement pricing for customers without the AppleCare+ plan. While the $999 price for the Apple Watch Edition sounds high, it should be noted that it’s around 10% of the product’s base cost, which tracks with AppleCare pricing for the $2999 Mac Pro, which retails for $249 (but can be had for less from resellers)....

CrowdStrike called the group “Aquatic Panda” and said it is an “intrusion adversary with a dual mission of intelligence collection and industrial espionage” that has operated since at least May 2020. The group’s exact intent is unknown because the attack was disrupted. CrowdStrike told ZDNet, however, that Aquatic Panda is known to maintain persistence in environments to gain access to intellectual property and other industrial trade secrets. “Aquatic Panda operations have primarily focused on entities in the telecommunications, technology, and government sectors,” CrowdStrike explained in a report....

One slightly surprising spec in the new 15-inch MacBook Pro line-up is that even the base model got an AMD GPU. Previously, Apple has offered only integrated GPU in the base model, reserving discrete graphics for the higher-specced models. John Gruber noticed that the ArsTechnica review explains this: it was the only way to allow the machine to drive two 5K monitors. And the reason for that is that Apple had to use something of a workaround to achieve it …...

There were already dozens of Avengers: Endgame secrets and Easter Eggs for fans to enjoy, but the list just keeps on growing.

Furthermore, an operating system with a large number of apps can be larger than 100GB in size. How about a Linux server? A production server regularly stores, updates, moves and deletes files. When administering a server, the administrator must be prepared for any calamity, such as a server crash that may destroy data, inadvertently deleting vital configuration files, or, in the worst-case scenario, the server being hacked. Uploading system files to the server will take time, and the administrator will need to sign up for a subscription plan with enough storage for the backup....
