'Stop the Kimsanity' - How news of North Korea's nuclear test was reported around the world Posted: 04 Sep 2017 06:20 AM PDT North Korea has claimed a "perfect success" for its most powerful nuclear test so far, a further step in the development of weapons capable of striking anywhere in the United States. Sunday's test by Kim Jong-un's regime had an estimated strength of 50 kilotons, defence ministry officials told a parliamentary briefing on Monday as Seoul agreed "it is time to strengthen" a military response against the North. The nuclear test was the first since US President Donald Trump took office in January. Mr Trump, asked if he would attack the North, said, "We'll see." Here's how regional and world media reacted... North Korea: Enemies are 'hell-bent' on escalation North Korea has launched a scathing attack on the "warmongers" in Seoul, along with South Korea's allies in Washington and Tokyo, following Sunday's missile launch. Official media in Pyongyang criticised the response from the South Korea "puppet forces" in calling for more UN action against the North and the "introduction of nuclear strategic assets into South Korea". North Korea detonate sixth and most powerful nuclear test 00:56 "This is not only the height of the persecution mania of those upset by the recent launch of the Juche weapon but also useless racket of those hell-bent on escalating confrontation," said a commentary from the Rodong Sinmun newspaper, which was produced by official KCNA news agency. Juche is North Korea's home-grown ideology which promotes self-reliance and devotion to the country's rulers. China: Seoul and Washington are at fault China's Global Times newspaper said Beijing should resist tougher sanctions on North Korea and blamed heightened tensions on the US and South Korea. The newspaper, which is produced by The People's Daily, the official mouthpiece of the ruling Communist Party, also warned against cutting off Pyongyang's oil supply and closing the border. "If North Korea's nuclear activities don't contaminate China's northeastern regions, China should avoid imposing overly aggressive sanctions on North Korea, it said in an editorial. "The root cause of the North Korean nuclear issue is that the military pressure of the Washington-Seoul alliance generates a sense of insecurity for Pyongyang who then believes that owning a nuclear strike capability is its sole guarantee for the survival of the regime." Officials in Beijing regularly blame Seoul and Washington for raising tensions on the Korean peninsula. Taiwan: Pyongyang must stop undermining security in the region Taiwan's newspapers splashed on Monday with the escalating crisis over North Korea's nuclear test, with the China Times opting for a chilling full page picture of a mushroom cloud. Other newspapers opted to show Kim Jong-un inspecting his missiles. "World criticizes N Korean nuclear test," said the frontpage headline in the The Taipei Times, the island's only English-language newspaper, next to a picture of joyful Pyongyang residents reacting to a televised announcement about the hydrogen bomb test that was displayed on a large city centre screen. The newspaper revealed that President Tsai Ing-wen convened a national security meeting on Sunday. "Tsai condemned North Korea for its action, and urged Pyongyang to stop any moves to undermine security in the region," it said. Although not directly in the firing line of Pyongyang's missiles, Taiwan, just a two hour flight from Seoul, would be caught in the crosshairs of any regional conflict.

8 Home Inspection Nightmares from the Pros Who Survived Them Posted: 05 Sep 2017 08:08 AM PDT

Syria army nears regime enclave besieged by IS Posted: 04 Sep 2017 12:55 PM PDT Syria's army battled the Islamic State group on the edges of Deir Ezzor Monday, seeking to break the siege of a government enclave and oust the jihadists from a key stronghold. The jihadist group has already lost more than half of its nearby bastion of Raqa to attacking US-backed forces, and the loss of Deir Ezzor city and the surrounding oil-rich province would leave it with only a handful of isolated outposts. Deir Ezzor province borders Iraq, where IS has also been expelled from former strongholds Mosul and Tal Afar.

Fresh iPhone 8 leak shows how Apple is dealing with the phone’s biggest change Posted: 04 Sep 2017 08:48 AM PDT Apple's upcoming iPhone 8 will undeniably represent the biggest change to the iPhone form factor we've ever seen. According to reports, the venerable home button -- a mainstay on the iPhone since the original was introduced back in 2007 -- will be tossed aside to make room for an edgeless OLED display. And though Apple initially tried to embed its Touch ID sensor underneath the display itself, those plans were ultimately abandoned due to yield issues Apple wasn't able to overcome. With the home button being kicked to the curb, Apple will reportedly implement a number of new software-based gestures that will enable iPhone 8 users to return to the home screen and activate the multitasking pane. Of course, the iPhone home button was impressively versatile and was also used as a means for users to quickly activate Siri. With the home button on its way out, you might naturally be wondering how iPhone 8 users will be able to call Siri into action, the "Hey Siri" command notwithstanding. Well, iOS developer Guilherme Rambo recently unearthed code -- presumably from Apple's inadvertent HomePod firmware release -- which suggests that users may be able to invoke Siri by holding down the iPhone 8 lock button in a particular manner. https://twitter.com/_inside/status/903794884301160448 This is intriguing, but also raises a number of usability issues. First and foremost, invoking Siri via the lock button would have to be sufficiently different from current lock button actions used to put the iPhone to sleep or shut it down entirely. All that said, it's worth noting that the code Rambo is looking at -- assuming it's the HomePod firmware -- is possibly months old and may include gestures and source code that will not ultimately appear in the final iPhone 8 design. On a related note, Bloomberg last week published a slew of interesting details regarding some of the new gestures Apple is adding to iOS 11 to replace the home button. "Across the bottom of the screen there's a thin, software bar in lieu of the home button," the report reads in part. "A user can drag it up to the middle of the screen to open the phone. When inside an app, a similar gesture starts multitasking. From here, users can continue to flick upwards to close the app and go back to the home screen." In light of that, some visualizations which purport to illustrate how these gestures will look and feel surfaced just a few days ago https://twitter.com/_inside/status/902907902784139265?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=http%3A%2F%2Fbgr.com%2F2017%2F08%2F31%2Fiphone-8-home-button-multitasking-gestures-ios-11%2F https://twitter.com/_inside/status/903088612119642113?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=http%3A%2F%2Fbgr.com%2F2017%2F08%2F31%2Fiphone-8-home-button-multitasking-gestures-ios-11%2F All that said, it's becoming apparent that iOS 11 will usher in a number of sweeping changes to the way we interact with iOS devices. The good news is that we won't have to wait much longer to see what the future of the iPhone looks like. Apple last week sent out invitations to a special media event set to take place at the company's new spaceship campus on September 12. In addition to new iPhones, it's widely believed that Apple will also introduce a new iteration of the Apple Watch and a revamped Apple TV with support for 4K streaming.
