Facebook closes street artists page after anti-Zuckerberg posters – CNET
Apple has been making all sorts of tiny changes to its app icons in the iOS 11 beta. And today, it made two of the most interesting changes yet: one to Maps, and one to the App Store.The Maps change is a bit more fun (you can see the difference above via iCulture). The icon has, since the iPhones inception, shown 1 Infinite Loop the location of Apples longtime headquarters. But with the companys enormous spaceship campus, known as the Apple Park, now opening up, iOS designers seem to have felt it was time to make a change. So instead, the Maps icon now shows a sliver of the spaceship.Or maybe its just this nearby offramp. Its kind of hard to tell.

Go See This Eclipse
On August 21st, 2017, the United States will host its first total solar eclipse in nearly 40 years. While a partial eclipse will be visible from the continental US, only a thin strip across fourteen states will experience what is regarded as the most astounding celestial event one can witness: a total solar eclipse. This film is about why you should do everything you can to go see it.
“Seeing a partial eclipse bears the same relation to seeing a total eclipse as kissing a man does to marrying him, or as flying in an airplane does to falling out of an airplane.”
— Annie Dillard

TV-tipset: Ray Donovan är tillbaka
Ray Donovan är problemlösaren som alla ringer till närde hamnat i problem och ställt det för sig. Han ser till att polisrapporter försvinner och skandaler tystas ned. Han fixar det mesta, utom sin egen familj.
Ray Donovan är tillbaka, den femte säsongen, med Liev Schreiber i huvudrollen.
I de rika och berömdas vidsträckta Mecka Los Angeles är Ray mannen som kallas in för få stadens kändisars, idrottsstjärnors och affärsmogulers mest komplicerade och brandfarliga situationer att försvinna. Ray har två kolleger hans högra hand, Avi, en skräckinjagande israel, och Lena, en fåordig och hårdkokt lesbisk kvinna, som han inte heller skulle klara sig utan. Ray jobbar främst för Goldman/Drexler, som är den mäktigaste advokatfirman i staden. Den leds av Rays förtrolige och mentor, Ezra Goldman, och dennes partner, Lee Drexler. De enda problem Ray inte kan lösa är de som har att göra med hans egen, trasiga familj från South Boston. Enligt Ray kan alla deras problem spåras till en person: deras far Mickey, en gangster i den irländska maffian som aldrig skyddade sin egen familj. Men allt vänds upp och ner när Mickey, efter att ha suttit inne i 20 år, reser till Los Angeles, full av hämndlust. Han vill ha pengar, ett nytt liv och han vill ha tillbaka sin plats som familjens överhuvud.

Apple says more Smart Connector products for iPad Pro are coming
A recent conversation with manufacturers mostly points the finger at Apple for slow rollout of Smart Connector peripherals, but Apple itself says that vendors have products in the pipeline using the technology.FastCompany recently spoke with Incipio, Brydge, Zagg, and other vendors to get to the bottom of the paucity of Smart Connector devices. The picture painted is one of Apple control of the technology potentially leading to slow adoption, and Bluetooth’s wide acceptance creating an environment where it’s easier to ignore the port than to implement it.”With an iPad Pro keyboard on the market already, we are evaluating the market’s appetite for another iPad Pro keyboard and identifying if there are any gaps that we can fill,” Incipio spokesperson Kelly McElroy told FastCompany. “So we are developing with having a point of difference in mind rather than developing to be quick to market.”
