Today's Story Highlights

Amazon Debuts Echo Show 5: Smaller, Cheaper, More Private
Amazon has announced the Echo Show 5 and is taking preorders. This
third-generation Echo Show is called the "5" because it has a 5.5-inch
diagonal display. he Echo Show 5 is available in the line's standard
Charcoal and Sandstone colors. It is priced at $90. New Alexa routines
are available on the Echo Show 5, such as a nighttime routine that turns
off the bedroom lamp and plays soothing sounds.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/86046.html

Apple's New iPod Gets in Touch With Gamers
Apple has refreshed its iPod touch line of media players with a faster
processor, greater storage capacity and improved communications
features. The new iPod is built on Apple's A10 Fusion chip, the same
processor used in the iPhone 7. According to Apple, the power upgrade
delivers two times faster performance than previous models and three
times better graphics.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/86040.html

GitHub Opens New Door to Financial Support for Open Source Devs
GitHub has made it easier for open source developers to garner financial
support as recipients of paid sponsorships. GitHub Sponsors, launched in
beta last week, is a new funding mechanism that enables open source
users to make recurring payments, much like crowdfunding services such
as Patreon and managed open source subscription services like Tidelift.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/86042.html

How to Set Up Your Computer to Auto-Restart After a Power Outage
Aside from malware and viruses, nothing has the potential to be more
dangerous to your computer's health than power outages. Here is how to
ensure your computer keeps it boot on when a power failure turns the
lights off. With the approach of the turbulent summer season, it is
important to know what kills the electrical lifeline, how to safeguard
your digital gear from fatal reboot disease.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/86034.html

Qualcomm and Huawei: Now Things Are Just Getting Weird
Qualcomm just lost its seemingly no-lose case against the FTC, largely
because it seems the judge was only physically in the room during the
trial. The ruling makes it look like she and I observed very different
trials. In addition, the U.S. apparently declared war against Huawei,
which actually could benefit Huawei. The result of both efforts
effectively could be to give the 5G market to China.

T-Mobile-Sprint Merger Teeters Between FCC Approval, DoJ Rejection
United States Federal Communications Commission Chairman Ajit Pai this
week gave the green light to a merger between T-Mobile and Sprint,
currently the third- and fourth-largest mobile carriers respectively.
The nation's top telecom regulator agreed to the $26 billion merger, but
with some conditions -- the most notable being that Sprint would sell
off its Boost Mobile prepaid cellphone brand.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/86035.html

US Post Office to Test-Drive Autonomous Trucks
The U.S. Postal Service has announced a pilot project using self-driving
trucks. It will conduct the two-week experiment in collaboration with
TuSimple, an autonomous driving technology company based in San Diego.
TuSimple's contract with the postal service calls for one of the
company's self-driving trucks to make five round trips hauling USPS
trailers between Dallas and Phoenix.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/86032.html

5G Could Mess With Accuracy of Weather Forecasts
Next-generation 5G mobile communications technology could have a harmful
impact on weather forecasting in the United States, based on expert
testimony presented before a U.S. House committee during a hearing on
the future of weather forecasting. Interference from 5G wireless phones
could reduce the accuracy of weather forecasts by 30 percent, said Neil
Jacobs, Acting Under Secretary of Commerce for Oceans and Atmosphere at
NOAA.

The Rebirth of the Personal Computer
I went to Lenovo Accelerate last week and feasted my eyes on one of the
most innovative PCs I've ever seen. However, as I absorbed the rest of
Lenovo's announcements, I realized I was looking at just the tip of what
could be a significant coming change in personal computers -- one that
could eclipse every change we have seen so far. Lenovo's "one more
thing" is a coming foldable screen laptop.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/86022.html

How Artificial Intelligence Is Reshaping the Workforce
Shoppers soon might see a lot more robots in Walmart stores -- but not
toy robots or even human assistant gadgets that are available for
purchase. Walmart's new robots will be taking over repeatable,
predictable and manual tasks that up to now have been carried out by
human employees. At Walmart stores, robots will scan shelf inventory and
track boxes as part of its inventory management.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/86023.html

Budgeting Software Options to Keep Linux Users From Seeing Red
Budget apps for Linux are part of a software category that has been all
but abandoned. But take heart. A number of Web-based solutions will more
than meet your budget-tracking needs. However, do not mix the concept of
open source with free. If you want an actual free budget program that
works well with your flavor of Linux OS, a Web-based offering may your
only option.
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/86016.html

Zombieload, Fallout, and 2 Other CPU Flaws Have Intel on the Hop
The high-tech industry once again is in a tizzy over flaws discovered in
Intel CPUs -- four new MDS vulnerabilities have come to light. MDS is a
sub-class of previously disclosed vulnerabilities that sample data
leaked from small structures within the CPU using a locally executed
speculative execution side channel. The practical exploitation of MDS
flaws is a very complex undertaking, however.
