Would you pay $65 a month for cell service from Comcast?

Posted: 06 Apr 2017 10:30 AM PDT

Would you pay $65 a month for cell service from Comcast?

Are you one of the three people in America who's always wanted to get cell service from America's most-hated company? Well, good news: Comcast has taken time out of its busy schedule of customer service, and put together a cellphone division.

Sometime in the "near future," Comcast will launch Xfinity Mobile, a virtual cell company operating on Verizon's towers. Initially, service will only be open to the company's existing customers, so you'll need to have Comcast cable, internet or home phone to qualify.

Details on the plans are scarce for now, but we know that pricing will start at $65 per month for unlimited data. That price can drop as low as $45 per month depending on your cable package, as Comcast seems to intend to bundle the wireless service heavily with its other plans. There's also a pay-as-you-go service for $12 per gigabyte, which thanks to the lack of line access fees, could work out to be a good deal for low-use customers.

When it launches, Comcast's service will support the most recent phones from Apple, Samsung and LG. The selection is far from exhaustive, but with the most recent Galaxy and iPhone models available, it should be enough for most users.

Comcast's big trick in this whole thing is to try and use its existing Wi-Fi network to reduce the load on Verizon's cell network. Comcast has access to 16 million Wi-Fi hotspots across the country, including many piggybacking off residential home internet. The idea is that whenever an Xfinity Mobile subscriber is within range of a Wi-Fi hotspot, their phone will switch off the LTE network and onto Wi-Fi.

It's supposed to reduce the load on Verizon's network and ultimately cost less money, but it could end up being a headache for Comcast. Switching off between Wi-Fi and LTE is already a headache for many users; hopping between hundreds of different Wi-Fi networks could prove to be incredibly frustrating for subscribers. But then again, it wouldn't be a Comcast program without a little bit of customer frustration, so it all sounds about right.

Astronomers just discovered something awesome about the most Earth-like planet ever found

Astronomers just discovered something awesome about the most Earth-like planet ever found

Do you like Earth? Yeah, it's pretty neat, huh? Well despite living on a planet as awesome as our own, astronomers are super eager to find more Earths, just for fun. A planet called Gliese 1132 B (GJ 1132b if you feel like making it slightly shorter) is one such planet. It's called a "Super Earth" because it's larger than our own planet, but is thought to be made of similar stuff, and researchers just discovered something extremely awesome that makes GJ 1132b the most Earth-like exoplanet humans have ever found: it has an atmosphere.

Finding planets in the depths of space that bear similarities to Earth is a long and complicated process. First we have to find the planet itself, then we have to determine its size, take an educated guess as to what it's made out of, and figure out how far away it sits from its star. If all of those tests, readings, and measurements come back in the right neighborhood, scientists have to determine if the world has an atmosphere, because without that there's essentially zero chance that life is or could be supported on its surface.

GJ 1132b has managed to make it past all of those hurdles, but even that strict criteria doesn't confirm the planet's ability to host living things. The planet is thought to be quite hot, with temperatures at or above those of Venus, which is hundreds of degrees hotter than Earth. If life does exist on the planet, it could be dramatically different from anything humans have ever imagined, but we won't know for certain for a long while. In the meantime, researchers are suggesting that observatories around the world give the planet some special attention going forward.


Taliban suicide blast targeting census team kills seven in Pakistan

Hamas executes three Palestinians in Gaza, says they collaborated with IsraelBy Nidal al-Mughrabi GAZA (Reuters) - Gaza's ruling Hamas movement executed three Palestinians on Thursday convicted of collaborating with Israel, hanging the men during a campaign to persuade any Israeli-recruited agents to come forward in return for more lenient punishment. Hamas leaders and officials, along with the heads of Gaza clans and local security chiefs, watched the execution in the courtyard of the enclave's main police headquarters. The Hamas-run Interior Ministry said the men, aged 32, 42 and 55, were convicted of treason and spying for hostile foreign parties and had provided information that helped Israel track and kill Palestinians, including leaders of militant factions.

South Sudanese troops butchered civilians, shot children: refugees

Posted: 05 Apr 2017 07:55 AM PDT

South Sudanese troops butchered civilians, shot children: refugeesHundreds of South Sudanese refugees fled into Uganda for a second day on Wednesday, bearing further grim testimony of an attack by government forces on the border town of Pajok in which at least 17 people were killed, according to a Reuters tally.     Some were shot as they tried to flee. Two children were run down by a car.     The testimony from the refugees, more than 3,000 of whom have gathered just inside the Ugandan border, offers a glimpse of the brutality of a three-year civil war ripping apart the world's youngest nation.     The government denies its Sudan People's Liberation Army (SPLA) forces target civilians and said Monday's operation in Pajok, a town of more than 10,000 people 15 km (10 miles) north of the Ugandan border, was to flush out rebel guerrillas.

Senate Republican leader starts clock ticking to Gorsuch showdownBy Lawrence Hurley and Richard Cowan WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Senate moved on Tuesday toward ramming through approval of President Donald Trump's Supreme Court nominee this week, as its top Republican said he had the votes to wipe away Democratic roadblocks but vowed to preserve the minority party's ability to hold up legislation. Majority Leader Mitch McConnell plans to change the Senate's long-standing rules in order to eliminate the ability to use a procedural hurdle called a filibuster against Supreme Court nominees like Trump's pick, Neil Gorsuch, if a Democratic filibuster succeeds as expected in blocking a confirmation vote.


5 features on the LG G6 and Samsung Galaxy S8 you won’t find on any iPhone

5 features on the LG G6 and Samsung Galaxy S8 you won't find on any iPhone

Apple's iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus quickly became the fastest-selling smartphones of all time following their launch this past September. The new Apple flagships were the company's most powerful smartphones ever, and they included a number of firsts. Apple introduced multiple new colors to its iPhone lineup for the first time, and it doubled the available storage in each of its iPhone tiers for the first time. But there was also a first that Apple fans weren't so happy about: the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus marked the first time Apple reused the same iPhone design for the third consecutive year.

The iPhone has always felt like it was ahead of the curve, but that changed in 2017 as the LG G6 and Samsung Galaxy S8 were introduced. These sleek new smartphones feature next-generation designs that leave Apple's iPhone design from 2014 in the dust. Of course, the differences extend beyond design, and in this post we'll cover five features in particular from the LG G6 and Galaxy S8 that will make iPhone users jealous.

Bye bye bezels

Companies like Samsung completely reinvented their smartphone business by doing everything they could to copy Apple's iPhone designs, and it worked for Samsung in particular even better than the company could have imagined. In 2017, however, the iPhone is starting to feel quite dated.

The new LG G6 and Samsung's upcoming Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ feature displays that do away with any lingering home buttons and logos. The new phones also rework internal components in order to make the bezels surrounding the screens as narrow as possible with today's technical limitations. The result is a user experience that's more immersive than ever before.

Fat guy in a little coat

Speaking of those narrow bezels, the LG G6 and Galaxy S8 also manage to stuff very large screens into remarkably compact designs. Chris Farley would've loved these phones.

With screen-to-body ratios that exceed 80% for the LG G6 and Galaxy S8 duo alike, there have never been widely available phones that pack larger displays into phones this size. In fact, the G6 and the smaller Galaxy S8 both include displays that are bigger than the one in the iPhone 7 Plus phablet, yet the phones themselves are closer in size to the smaller iPhone 7.

An assistant that really assists

Siri has gotten so much better in recent years, but users still complain constantly about all of Siri's shortcomings. Meanwhile, on smartphones running Android 7.0 Nougat and later, users absolutely adore Google Assistant for the most part. Google Assistant might be terrible on the Google Home, but on a phone like the LG G6 or Galaxy S8 it's pretty terrific.

One less wire to worry about

Plugging a Lightning cable into the bottom of an iPhone isn't exactly a taxing chore, so I've been surprised to see how excited iPhone users have been to see rumors that the upcoming iPhone 8, iPhone 7s Plus and iPhone 7s will include wireless charging. It is a pretty handy technology, especially now that there are fast wireless charging standards. You know which three phones already include support for fast wireless charging? That's right, the LG G6, Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+.

So many selfies

Last but certainly not least, we have a complaint that iPhone users have had since practically the dawn of time. And the bad news that there is a 0% chance Apple will ever address it, because doing so would mean destroying Apple's iPhone ASPs.

When it comes to Apple's latest iPhones, you can buy a 32GB model, a 128GB model or a 256GB model. Want more storage? You'll need an external device like Lightning to microSD card adapter or a Lightning flash drive. Want more storage in your LG G6, Galaxy S8 or Galaxy S8+? Pop in a microSD card.


Thai king signs junta's new constitution

Thai king signs junta's new constitutionThailand's king signed a new military-backed constitution on Thursday that strengthens the army's hand in government and puts the country on the path to polls after three years of junta rule. The military says the charter -- Thailand's twentieth since 1932 -- will curb unrest in the politically-split kingdom and keep out corrupt lawmakers. In a solemn and ritual-laden affair, the 64-year-old king inked three copies of the charter, which were then stamped by white-clad officials and placed on gilded pillars before the monarch.
