One of the issues with FTP is that it is a completely plaintext protocol and can be configured to allow anonymous authentication to the service. Since the protocol is designed to allow files to be added to or removed from the FTP server, this can be a significant security concern. A couple of different protocols exist for securing FTP. FTPS is the use of FTP traffic wrapped in Transport Layer Security (TLS)....

Now, it seems, Blizzard is responding to these requests. While the shotgunning Phantom of the Opera cosplayer has not traditionally presented a major issue in the highest ranks of Overwatch, Reaper has for months been running rampant in the lower and mid-tiers....
According to a DisplaySearch analyst report published in the Nikkei, via CNET, both LG and Sharp are having trouble ramping production of the iPad mini’s 7.9inch Retina display. The report states that Sharp is struggling to produce any level of output at all. This corroborates with a Digitimes report from earlier this week. Apparently, Sharp’s Oxide TFT process is to blame for the low yield rates. The Nikkei report says that LG is having more success, but still operating substantially below maximum capacity....

THQ Nordic acquired the TimeSplitters IP a year ago, saying it had plans for the future of the series. However, nothing about those plans has come to light until now.

If you’re creating any content online, sooner or later, you’ll reach a point where DIY just isn’t enough. Shooting video, animating, and editing is enough work without having to supply all the dialogue. Plus, high-quality voice acting can be expensive. So if you haven’t considered using AI voiceovers, you should know the technology has come a long way. Case in point: Micmonster. Text-to-speech apps are nothing new, but the quality of default voices on this buzzworthy tool is impressive, and that’s before you dive into the many customization options....

According to a new report from supply chain blog Macotakara, Apple could be in the process of developing a revised 7th generation iPod touch. Further, the report says the 2019 iPhone might make the jump to USB-C, just like the 2018 iPad Pros. The report is rather vague, with Macotakara citing supply chain sources. Details on what changes a new 7th generation iPod touch might feature are unclear at this point, but it is long overdue for an update....
Steve Perlman, a former Quicktime Guru at Apple, has a very interesting startup called OnLive. The idea is simple: Cloud gaming. You play games over the Internet and your screen acts like a dummy terminal that operates hardcore Cloud gaming rigs (or virtualized rigs) like VNC operates remote desktops. These GPU data centers are located throughout the US because, as you might expect, the latency of button pushing and seeing the result of the button pushing is what has held up these type of scenarios in the past....
This model has hit the FCC ahead of an official announcement from Apple or Beats. The filings include a drawing of the new earbuds, and they look very similar to existing Powerbeats. Based on the code findings, we are expecting this to be a replacement for Powerbeats3, which are sold by Apple for $199. As Powerbeats Pro cost $249, that is the obvious price ceiling for the new revision. Outside of adoption of the H1 chip and onboard ‘Hey Siri’ detection, we are not expecting much else new from this particular hardware update....
Nestled between the slender and colorful storefronts on Zurich’s Rennweg, Apple’s latest retail store has opened its doors.

Blink and you might miss it....
