It turns out that Apple has developed the standard and was instrumental in bringing it on board over at Intel. Instrumental in this case means Steve Jobs aguing with Intel chief Paul Paul Otellini about getting the product into new motherboards. 10Gbs is fast. It is 10 times faster than Gigabit Ethernet (and is duplex meaning both tx and rx are 10Gb as the same time). That is also faster than the DisplayPort connector that connects Apple’s displays....

The successor to Thunderbolt 3, aptly named Thunderbolt 4, will arrive alongside new Tiger Lake mobile processors, said Intel during its CES 2020 keynote. The CPU-integrated Thunderbolt 4 will make its debut in a yet-to-be-named thin and light hardware release later this year. For Mac users, this is noteworthy simply for the fact that Thunderbolt 3 has such a prolific presence on all modern Macs. In fact, every Mac that Apple sells, from the cheapest Mac mini to the highest-end Mac Pro, features at least two Thunderbolt 3 ports....

Update: Apple has released a statement saying that the following iOS 10 update issues should now be resolved: iOS 10 has just dropped but it seems like it is not smooth sailing for everyone. We have received many reports that users are finding their iPhone and iPad devices ‘bricked’ after attempting the over-the-air iOS 10 update. To restore, affected users must then plug their devices into iTunes on Mac or PC to restore the device....

From the moment that Super Smash Bros. creator Masahiro Sakurai confirmed that players would be starting with eight characters in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, there’s been some hesitance from the fan base. The prospect of beginning with the original starting selection from the Nintendo 64 game is a wonderful trip down memory lane, but the act of earning the full 74-character roster takes a lot of time; time that some feel is best spent elsewhere, but there are a number of pros to this decision – and it can be argued that they far outweighs the cons....

Losing followers on Instagram? You’ve been cracking away at growing your Instagram following, spending hours, (days, weeks and months) working on your account but they’re not sticking? You’ve read a heap of blogs reminding you to check your best times to post, how to use selective hashtags, etc and yes you’re doing all of that, but your Instagram followers are still decreasing. You post another cracking image…then as soon as you roll over in the morning and check your overnight progress – you’ve freaking gone backwards again and you’re losing followers....

The social media world is jam-packed with useful apps that can make your online life easier, make you look better and even provide you with legal, yet potentially misleading images. We decided to get all scientific, so I wandered around the Plann office, tapping on people’s heads and making them take their headphones off with flagrant disregard for our ‘headphones mean privacy’ policy. Luckily, I only got told off twice and everyone else was happy to offer up their favourite Instagram apps....

After Twitter announced its new Super Follow feature, Instagram is taking the same path and is working on an “Exclusive Stories” function with a similar purpose. Over the past few weeks, reverse engineer and leaker Alessandro Paluzzi was able to show firsthand how the Exclusive Stories feature will work. Similar to Close Friends but in purple instead of green, this function will probably be only available for creators. To TechCrunch, Instagram confirmed it’s working on the feature, although the company declined to share any specific details about its plans....

Well, when the automatic won’t work, it’s time to switch to the manual method, but don’t worry you won’t have to get your fingers too greasy (hopefully.) Firefox uses XPI files to install the plugin packages available to Firefox. So technically this process should work not just for Adobe Flash, but for any Firefox plugin. After a bit of digging, I was able to scrape the address of the XPI file for Flash from the Adobe site....

Intel has been throwing a lot of shade at Apple since the company started the shift to its Apple Silicon chips with the first M1 Macs last fall. The most recent series of its “Go PC” ads even feature former “I’m a Mac” star Justin Long mocking the new M1 Macs. In an ironic move, Intel is now using the MacBook Pro in a new ad to promote “The world’s best processor on a thin and light laptop” that’s not found in any of Apple’s notebooks....

NetBlocks, an organization tracking internet access worldwide, said the internet was restored in Yemen after a four-day nationwide outage. At about 1am local time on Friday, Yemen suffered a total internet blackout due to airstrikes on a telecommunications hub in the port city of Al Hodeida. Some online shared photos of a telecommunications building damaged by bombs. The Associated Press eventually confirmed that the attack on the telecommunications hub in Al Hodeida was part of a larger aerial assault on Yemen’s Houthi rebels by a Saudi-led coalition....

All the devices from iPhone 5s and up, iPad mini 2, iPad Air and later are eligible for the update. As we told earlier the new feature is called the Apple Pay Cash and this will allow users to send cash by linking a debit card or a credit card....

Prepare your iPhones and iPads for iOS 12 beta 6! iOS 12 betas have been released roughly every two weeks so far this summer, but today we expect to see the sixth developer beta version of iOS 12 released just one week after the previous version.

For the folks out there that get a lot of emails, but don’t always want to deal with them as they come in, the ability to make it go away until a later time is a helpful feature. The “Snooze” feature is one that makes managing the inbox much easier, and now Inbox by Gmail is getting even better thanks to new options within the feature. The official Gmail team has revealed even more options for users to choose when they want to dismiss an email until a later time or date....

Did Loki actually survive Avengers: Infinity War after all? The God of Mischief is well known for his tricks, and has had a number of fake deaths over the course of the MCU. As a result, when Loki’s neck was snapped by Thanos, viewers immediately questioned whether or not he was truly dead this time. The film itself seemed to be aware of this. In a comment that was essentially addressed to questioning audiences, Thanos observed that there would be “no resurrections this time....
