When people think of the Golden State, Los Angeles typically comes to mind. After that, the Bay Area… Source link

Google helps simplify your online life—from email and online storage to news and digital maps. But it can also take over your TV with the Chromecast. Google currently sells two versions of its media-streaming device—the Chromecast Ultra and Chromecast With Google TV. The latter gave Google’s dongle a much-needed makeover, adding a remote and an on-screen menu. Many people, however, are probably still casting via legacy devices; the Chromecast has been around since 2013. Its… Source link

There’s a lot riding on the San Francisco 49ers‘ first-round draft pick. They traded up from No. 12 to No. 3, giving up their first-round picks in 2022 and 2023 to get that prime spot. With those first round picks gone, they have to get this one right.  The Niners have been frequently connected to Alabama quarterback Mac Jones, so you’d imagine they’d want as much info about him as possible if he’s going to be their No. 3 overall pick, right?  If the Niners are looking for more perspectives… Source link

Aljamain Sterling has no reason to hang his head. He has no reason to be embarrassed by the way he won the UFC bantamweight championship on Saturday at Apex. He has nothing to apologize for and he owes nobody, particularly not Petr Yan, a thing. Yan committed one of the most egregious fouls in UFC history on Saturday when he kneed Sterling in the head late in the fourth round of their title fight while Sterling’s knee was on the canvas. Under the Unified Rules of Mixed Martial Arts, which… Source link

On February 16th, I wrote that Australia’s News Media Bargaining Code threatened to splinter the internet. On February 17th, the splintering arrived: Google cut a deal with News Corp. that will ensure its services continue to be provided in Australia, and Facebook walked away from the bargaining table and began preventing people from sharing news links from Australian publishers around the world. I think Facebook basically did the right thing, and Google basically did the wrong thing,… Source link

Google removed former president Donald Trump’s 2020 campaign app from Google’s Play Store earlier Wednesday. It wasn’t removed for any of the many other reasons that Trump has been removed from the world’s largest platforms, but rather because it just didn’t work, Android Police reports. Prior to its suspension, the app provided campaign news, an event schedule, and ways to donate to the campaign, but at some point, it stopped working, prompting Google to take it down. Android… Source link
