http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/0c8c99b2983ebdbd3822cb914d6a4a4f.jpg Because it’s Christmas, you’re likely going to revisit Love Actually, a classic holiday-themed romantic comedy. In it, there’s the iconic “to me you are perfect” moment, where Andrew Lincoln, who we’re used to seeing playing Rick these days, confesses to his best friend’s wife that he loves her using cue cards. SNL took inspiration from that moment to create one of the better sketches in recent memory. Continue reading...

President-elect Donald Trump wasn’t quick to react to the news, but when he eventually did he started with a laughable spelling mistake. Since then, China said it would return the drone, but Trump further tweeted that the country should keep it. Continue reading...

The Google Pixel has easily been one of the most anticipated phones of the year.

A team of scientists recently gave a pair of cooperative bots a chance to strut their stuff in the desert, and just to make the entire scenario even more accurate, they controlled the bots from a different continent.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/f591384111bedffdcf1afd2887a4a01c.jpg We were all promised smart homes several years ago where everything is connected and devices turn on and off on their own when we need them to. Air conditioning and heat are supposed to be optimized at all times, coffee is supposed to start brewing right when we wake up, window shades should open and close with a single voice command, and our front door should unlock itself as we approach it. So what happened? Sadly, there's still no easy and affordable way to make it all happen in the blink of an eye.

I normally don't back Kickstarters unless I'm reasonably confident that the thing is going to ship on time. The Everlast notebook is promising the stationary holy grail; Dunder Mifflin's downfall, otherwise known as reusable paper. I think it's going to crash and burn, but just the outside prospect of success has me breaking my own rules. Continue reading...

While Apple was initially interested in developing its own electric car from scratch, the New York Times relayed that Apple's automotive initiative was being scaled back due to a lack of significant progress. Nonetheless, Apple doesn't appear ready to give up on its automotive dreams completely. In the wake of reports that Apple has shifted its focus towards developing self-driving automotive software, Reuters is reporting that Apple not too long ago hired Alexander Hitzinger, the f…

The obviously-named spaceship will eventually house Apple's staff, keep the R&D department in a hermetically sealed blogger-proof building, and give Apple its own auditorium to show off courage to the eager public.
