    Energizer Smartphone has a 18,000 mAh Battery

    I just want the return of replaceable batteries. Not going to upgrade from my V20 until a viable alternative comes a long, and as the V20 does have replaceable batteries it is going to work long enough for that to happen... :)

    Blizzard Responds to Diablo: Immortal Backlash

    Here is one of my main problems. My phone is mainly a work tool. If I get any gaming done on it it is a Puzzle game or something. When I have time to game and really sink some effort into it, I am at home. Why would I ever sit down in front of my 43" 4K monitor and gaming keyboard and mouse and...

    Netflix Knocks Out Marvel’s "Iron Fist"

    What I reacted to most is that the fans are putting hope on Disney... Disney is not the company to put any hopes on these days. A third season on Disney will certainly be worse than nothing...

    Apple Says No to Sex and Violence for Its Streaming Service

    No sex and no violence in a world were people think harsh words and even bad thoughts equal violence. That leaves absolutely no content to be allowed at all... At least any that will have any viewers/listeners at all...

    Sony Reinvigorates the Megapixel Race With IMX586 Image Sensor Announcement

    Why do they not know that more pixels at this point is utterly meaningless. They now need to concentrate on improving natural colours and most of all light sensitivity. It is the same as with DSLR's. It took time before they realized that enough is enough and that quality had to improve before...

    Woman Looking at Apple Watch Found Guilty of Distracted Driving

    It's ok as long as Teslas touchdisplay is banned, Car Radios and Nav-units is banned from use and those distracting things that controls the AC has to be banned from use also. There has to be a limit. In Sweden we have settled for that we cannot hold any device in our hand while driving.As in...

    Spectre Variant 4 Disclosed, Mitigations to Result in Another Performance Hit

    I'm starting to think that this is all a deliberate push to make people that are happy with semi-old equipments performance feeling forced to upgrade to new stuff. It has been the bane of the industry as of late that new softwares and OS's has not been challenging enough to make people do the...

    HuniePop and Other Adult Games Facing Removal From Steam Store

    If they are going to be prudish then they might start looking at violence also... Why don't they just protect their store from poor quality instead of trying to tell people what they should or should not play/buy...

    Researchers Say a Breathalyzer Has Flaws, Casting Doubt on Countless Convictions

    But, isn't it widely known that breathalyzers only are an indicator, and to press any charges there HAS to be a blood test? Breathalyzers triggers on eating ice cream even, just because alcohol is used to clean the icecream machines (0 tolereance here), so usually when the indicator is low but...

    UK Government Teaches 7-Year-Olds That Piracy Is Stealing

    There Is a 40% Chance Apple Will Acquire Netflix, according to Citi

    Well, if Netflix gets bought and nothing changes for me as a consumer, then, fine. But if it happens and suddenly I need iTunes or something horrible as that (like needing their set top box), then I am unsubscribing in an instant.

    The Robots Are Coming, and Sweden Is Fine

    Sweden is far from perfect. But there is nowhere else I'd rather be. There is a few countries that seems fine in general, but when taking into account the finer things in life that has to be present in those countries, like good Ice-hockey on non-fighting inducing small rinks, then only Sweden...

    Apple’s Apology for Batterygate Didn’t Go Far Enough

    Samsung Patent Hints at Modular All-in-One Desktop PC

    I see this as a possible way to integrate a classic PC functionality and upgrade-ability with acceptable WAF. Maybe a way to incorporate PC power into the living room with "style". Not for me personally though as far as I can see.

    People Still Aren’t Buying Smartwatches, and It’s Only Going to Get Worse

    This is the problem with having grown up with purely materialistic and capitalistic views being forced into our minds. We made less profit than last year. Still profit, but less.

    High-Speed Broadband to Be Legal Right for UK Homes and Businesses

    Technically this is already true in any country and anywhere. Since it does not state a top price. If you have deep enough pockets, then you will be able to "demand" a fiber connection on your location, and rather quickly. It's just that it is going to cost you a LOT. I really hope there will be...

    Amazon Music Ending Cloud MP3 Storage, Streaming Option

    I've been living with my 4K 43" monitor for a while now. It's starting to feel small and limited. Give me this LG with the same physical height as my current 16:9 43" and it will be a step in the right direction. Although even wider would be even better... :)

    Norway Switches off FM Radio, but This Station Is Defying Government Order

    Sweden has been flirting with DAB and DAB2 for what it seems forever. But it uses fairly low bitrates so it isn't sounding much better when it works, but worse is it seems to have way less penetration ability than FM, which means the digital stream keeps getting interrupted. Which in turn means...

    Driverless Cars' AI Drivers are Huge Power Hogs

    Blade Runner 2049 Stumbles at Box Office
