Katie Holmes is a ''great director'', according to Judy Greer.

The 40-year-old star says her close pal did a fabulous job making her directorial debut in 'All We Had' and joked she was incredibly ''bossy'' with the cast and crew.

She told PEOPLE magazine: ''She's amazing. She wasn't bossy, no ... I mean, she's bossy, don't get me wrong, but she was never bossy with me.

''I liked working for her a lot. It's fun to get immediate feedback from your friends about your performance. It's great! It's always fun to have someone come and see what you're doing from a different view. She's a great director. I think she's gonna be fine.''

Meanwhile, Katie previously admitted she found it ''challenging but rewarding'' stepping behind the camera for the first time.

She said: ''I was actually on both sides [of the camera]. It was an undertaking, but the movie was produced by Jane Rosenthal and you couldn't ask for a better producer, so I felt very taken care of.

''It was very challenging! But very, very rewarding. Hopefully you just get better every time you do it. That's what I'm hoping for.''

You can pay at a restaurant by smiling at a camera

© Provided by Engadget As easy as it is to make purchases in the era of tap-to-pay services , it's about to get easier still. Alipay (which handles purchases for Chinese shopping giant Alibaba) has launched what it says is the first payment system that uses facial recognition to complete the sale. If you visit one of KFC's KPRO restaurants in Hangzhou, China, you can pay for your panini or salad by smiling at a camera-equipped kiosk -- you need to verify the purchase on your phone, but you don't have to punch in digits or bring your phone up to an NFC reader. The system (Smile to Pay) is purportedly resistant to spoofing with photos and other tricks. It relies on both depth-sensing cameras and a "likeness detection algorithm" to make sure it's really you. Reportedly, the technology is good enough that it can accurately identify people even when they're disguising themselves through makeup or wigs. You shouldn't have to worry about someone buying ...

Tesla cloud account hacked to mine cryptocurrency

© Provided by The Hill An unidentified outside hacker infiltrated Tesla's Amazon cloud account and used its systems to quietly mine for cryptocurrencies, a cybersecurity firm announced Tuesday. The hack also potentially exposed the electric car company's data. Researchers for RedLock found that Tesla's credentials on an IT administrative console were not password protected. They made the discovery while trying to track down which organizations had left their Amazon Web Services (AWS) credentials openly exposed on the internet last month. The hackers quietly hijacked the console and began running scripts to generate virtual currency like bitcoin, the latest in a series of "cryptojacking" attacks. The researchers also found the hackers used "sophisticated evasion measures" to go undetected. A spokesperson for Tesla said the company learned about the breach in a company-sanctioned bug bounty program that pays outside hackers to discover vulnerabilitie...
