That quote (attributed to Mark Twain) was running through my mind as I sat through the launch of the Pixel 2 a few days ago. For, when the dust had finally settled, it almost seemed as if Google had gone from being this mystical master of magical software and ubiquitous search to just another smartphone manufacturer. The Pixel launch was pretty much par for the course for any high-end smartphone launch, with the accent being more on design and hardware rather than the experience actually....

— Eddy Cue (@cue) June 22, 2015 This is as clear as it can get. Apple will compensate the artists for every song that gets streamed via Apple Music even during the free 3 month trial period. Earlier, Taylor Swift had claimed that it’s unfair for struggling indie artists to go without compensation for 3 months, and to protest that, she told that her upcoming pop album, 1989, will not be made available on Apple Music....

The feature was initially available only for the US folks on iOS, and slowly being rolled out globally in phases.

There is no gender reference in the press release of the Fitbit Luxe press release (though there is a mention of “an effortlessly chic bracelet design”) but a look at the product is enough to tell most people that this has been primarily designed for women. Even most of the sample images we got of the tracker seemed to be of women. While it can still pass off as broadly gender-neutral with a plain strap, the gorjana for Fitbit Luxe Special Edition variant (a tie-up with the legendary jewelry brand) seems totally for women, as do many of the straps and accessories for the device....

1. Walk and Talk. The Zenbo has the ability to roam around freely on its own and can also take directions through specific voice commands. Additionally, it can talk and reply with answers to your questions or alert you with a reminder. ZenBo’s face also acts as a touchscreen that can be operated to order groceries, video calls or watch a video. Moreover at the stage, Asus asked the robot to dance and it actually did, although, in an awkward robotic way....

Seats have further been extended to accommodate your friend in better comforts and the Gogoro 2 comes with larger 14-inch wheels at the front and a 13-inch one at the back, both of which translate to better control.

The under seat storage is something commendable with the room for two helmets....

From the looks of it, Google will not let Android face iOS this year, with only the Samsung Galaxy S3 and it’s looking to introduce its own flagship, just in time for the holiday season.

LG Nexus 4 Specifications and Features In the hardware section, the Nexus 4 will come with the traditional large screen, a quad-core processor clocked at an unknown frequency that may pose threats to Apple’s A6 chip and a huge amount of RAM, at least for the current Android line-up....

Guest post by Christina Jenkins. The mistakes that the people inside organizations make when it comes to virtualization are known. When those mistakes are made, the benefits – all the efficiency and cost cutting that it allows – begin to disappear.More important than the increased ibuprofen expense and unnecessary late nights on the job for the IT department, is the potential for increased security issues, as well as time delays....

One other device that was presented at MWC 2013 by ASUS was the Fonepad, which, I’m sad to say, it didn’t impress too much. I find it ridiculous to talk with such a big device, unless you use wireless headphones. From the get-go, the ASUS Fonepad looked like a Nexus 7 or like the Asus MeMo Pad but with a face lift. We (technology journalists) might perceive the differences between these 7-inchers but there’s a high risk that consumers will judge only by the final selling price....

You see, depending on what system you use, the screen capture method is different across the board. However, what remains the same is the file format in which it is saved. By default, a screenshot is captured in the PNG (Portable Network Graphics) format, primarily because it is a lossless format, which does not affect the image quality of the captured image, unlike the standard image format JPEG / JPG (Joint Photographic Experts Group)....

What are Google Sheets Formula Suggestions? As the name says, Google Sheets Formula Suggestions will suggest some formulas based on the data being entered in the sheet. In its blog post, Google says that it has trained a Machine Learning Model to achieve this. For instance, when you have a column of certain data and try to use a command for some formula, Google will analyze the data in that row, column, or table and suggest you a suitable formula....

However, while you’re at it, there are times when you accidentally mess up the existing (read default) PATH environment configuration on your system. On Windows, this isn’t a problem since it takes only one step to restore the default state of the PATH variable. But if you’re on Mac, this isn’t as straightforward. And so, to simplify this equation, here’s a guide detailing the steps required to reset the PATH variable to its default state....

The HTC Desire 310 comes with a 4.5 inch display with a 480×854 resolution touchscreen, a quad-core 1.3GHz Mediatek processor and on the software side we find Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean.

Inside the HTC Desire 310 we also find 1GB of RAM, only 4GB of internal storage, expandable up to 32GB via microSD card, a 5MP rear-facing camera, a VGA front-facing camera and a 2,000mAh battery....
