Rhian Ramos on Friday reaffirmed her Kapuso status as she signed a new contract with the GMA Network. 

"Dito naman ako sa GMA nagsimula 10 years ago," Ramos told reporters, reflecting on her days as a showbiz newbie when she was 15. 

The actress felt the waves of nostalgia inside the boardroom where she first signed with the network and quipped that it felt "full circle" to be renewing her contract in the same room. 

She added, "(GMA is) pretty much my family, dito na ako lumaki." 

Chairman and CEO of GMA Network Inc. Felipe Gozon reciprocated Ramos' praise and said, "We are also very loyal to Rhian. She's a very good actress."

Ramos said that she is look to her best year yet in the network, adding, "GMA is a station that is very adventurous."

As an example, she cited her role as Jade Tanchingco in "The Rich Man's Daughter" and her earlier performance as LaLolita Padilla in "LaLola." Asked how she sees her future, Ramos said that she feels like she will be receiving her best roles in the years to come. 

Now that she's more comfortable with herself, Ramos said that she's looking forward to even better projects—preferably comedic roles, which she confessed she enjoys most.

"I really think this is a great time for me," she explained, "Mas naiintindihan ko na sarili ko. Comapred dati, mas marami na ako alam ngayon.

"I just want to be more effective, sexier...better in every way than before."

The actress admitted that she's been also very happy with her personal life, enjoying a more calm and steady relationship with her non-showbiz boyfriend. — APG, GMA News

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...
