by Guest Brad Ward- 0 replies
- 22 views
Evernote took to its blog to announce a pricing shakeup for its subscription tiers. Evernote Basic, the free tier, is getting some changes as well. The changes to Evernote Basic mean that users aren’t going to be able to use Evernote on more than two devices. Basic (free) subscribers will have a couple of weeks […] Come comment on this article: Evernote’s subscription tiers get a shakeup Visit TalkAndroid http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/f4e2792225c57227c136267c2d57a4ab._.gif News via TalkAndroid

by Guest Jeff Causey- 0 replies
- 27 views
Earlier this year ZTE found itself on the wrong side of the friend or foe line with regard to the U.S. government. After allegations surfaced that ZTE was channeling technology to Iran contrary to U.S. export-controls, the Commerce Department proposed what would have been some of the toughest trade sanctions ever levied by the U.S. […] Come comment on this article: ZTE can continue U.S. trade through end of August with latest extension Visit TalkAndroid http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/e74c74edd805d34bc458626d462a685e._.gif News via TalkAndroid

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/1ad1cd64564e135d76bae43cb6d529e3.jpgBeing paid in beer might be a dream for some people, but it was a reality for many workers in ancient times.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/dabe18a367b0b95be4f8d12205ae2eb8.jpgThere are few games that receive as much attention from the modding community as The Elder Scrolls series. Creative fans have designed new clothes, tweaked the combat system and even built entirely new landmasses inside of Morrowind, Oblivion and Skyrim over the past decade or so, but the most impressive mods of all are the ones that require the most work: total conversions.

Tesla admits defeat, quietly settles Model X lawsuit over usability problems
by Guest Yoni Heisler- 0 replies

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/45604ccf23f3acfa169285291a8febab.jpgWe can talk about how innovative Tesla is for days on end. Indeed, there's no disputing the fact that the company, in injecting a bit of Silicon Valley ingenuity into the tried and true auto design process, has completely turned the auto industry on its head. At the same time, Tesla helped kickstarted the EV revolution, even causing traditional automakers like Porsche and BMW to start taking electric cars more seriously. But in Tesla's zeal to move extraordinarily quickly, problems have inevitably begun to creep in. Specifically, quality control issues still seem to be plaguing the Model X. …

SanDisk’s giant 256GB microSD card is also the world’s fastest
by Guest Chris Mills- 0 replies

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/74e39bdbdbae4263ab144738c74bf6d1.jpgMicroSD cards are about the size of your fingernail, but they're capable of storing way more stuff than, say, 3.5" floppy disks of yore. Every year it seems like cards get better, and 2016 is no exception. The SanDisk Extreme microSDXC UHS-1 card takes the crown as the new fastest microSD card on the planet. It's got transfer speeds of 100MB/s, and write speeds of 90MB/s. That should be enough to comfortably keep up with 4K hi-speed video recording from action cameras and drones, and way, way overkill for even the fanciest Android smartphone.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/f74271af6ed057e4ffd3b757bd4a2bd0.jpgLooking at China from a tech perspective is always a fascinating endeavor. The country is more populous than any other place on the planet, and yet, the country's citizens are often blocked from partaking in the latest tech advancements, all in the name of state wanting to control the dissemination of information. All the while, the powers that be in China talk a big game about being more open but as a recent CNN look into the country reveals, there's still a big lockdown on which pieces of software and websites individuals in the country are allowed to use. And further illustrating the degree…

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/a6f8e427230864f7e194c0ca85d69f04.jpgThe iPhone 7 will lack a 3.5mm audio jack that would be compatible with existing wired headphones, most rumors claim. Consequently, many people are already angry at Apple for looking to kill the port, even if most of them already know this is precisely the kind of move Apple is known for. But if Apple is killing the headphone jack, what will replace it? (more…)http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/be31c043734469d23b9891e716dd2356._.gif Via BRG - Boy Genius Report

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/6f02fa53d3fbbc6eea1797a2ea322448.jpgWith so much talk about a future filled with self-driving cars, it's easy to forget that general advances in autonomous software technologies can also be applied to boats. That being the case, Rolls Royce recently announced that it's been working on technology that might someday make it possible for gargantuan cargo ships to sail themselves across oceans. In a white paper published a few days ago, Rolls Royce explained how their vision of "remote and autonomous shipping" may become a reality as early as 2020.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/00442a2f807adb5b9f1cc50d0f507fce.jpg Samsung makes the best HDTVs and UHD TVs in the world, hands down. They feature killer picture quality that other companies inch closer to matching with each passing year, but no company out there has managed to match Samsung just yet. But Samsung is about much more than just TVs and smartphones — if you're in the market for a new sound system, Amazon's sale on the Samsung MX-JS5000/ZA 4 Channel 1,600 Watt Wired Audio Giga Sound System should definitely be on your radar.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/d56a5c2e4c89a054552e27a10b04cbd5.jpgEarlier this year, Microsoft began pushing upgrade notifications to Windows users, suggesting they upgrade to Windows 10 free of charge. As the year marched on, the notifications became increasingly aggressive, to the point where there was no longer any way to opt out of the upgrade from the notification windows. Users were understandably livid that Microsoft wasn't giving them a choice in the matter, but all of that changes this week.

To say that remaining hosts Rutledge Wood, Tanner Foust and Adam Ferrara simply couldn't recapture the magic of the original BBC program, and fans quickly revolted. Everyone knew going in that the show would take some time to hit its stride without Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May, but fans has little faith that things would turn around after watching early episodes.
