“My disrespectful e-mail attacks were unprofessional and unnecessary, especially when I made personal attacks,” Torvalds writes in the Linux Kernel Mailing List (LKML). “In my quest for a better patch, that made sense to me. I know now that this was not acceptable, and I’m really sorry.” For years, Torvalds said he did not believe in being polite and sensitive to discussing the Linux kernel. “I’d rather be really hostile, and bad ideas should be overturned aggressively,” he argued in 2015....

When Google launched Android one year after Apple launched the iPhone, they didn’t really expect it would be powering so many different types of devices. There are Android head units for cars, Android watches, tablets, of course, and now, thanks to Lenovo, an Android powered laptop. You might be thinking to yourself that this isn’t the first Android laptop, and you’re technically right because ASUS did make the Transformer, but the A10 is the first real bonafide laptop with a non-removable screen from a big company that’s running Android....

Lensbaby is planning to make an iPhone version of its popular selective focus lens range.

LG has just published a press release confirming that their new flagship phone, the G2, will be launching in the United States and Germany this month. They don’t give any specific dates, they don’t mention any prices, and they don’t name any operators. We know from LG’s G2 unveiling last month that it’ll launch on all four of America’s operators, but who will get it first? If I had to make a bet, I’d say AT&T....

Jane Silber, CEO of Canonical, has had to face for the company and apologized by saying the following: “There has been a security breach on the website of the Ubuntu forums....

The Lenovo A5 is constructed out of polycarbonate and is more of a compact device which can be credited to the 5.45-inch HD+ display with an aspect ratio of 18:9. Some people would call this display small by today’s standards, but its nice to see a compact smartphone in a pool of oversized devices. MediaTek’s MT6739 SoC handles CPU duties which is a quad-core processor clocked at 1.3GHz. This is accompanied by 2 GB of RAM along with 16 or 32 GB of internal storage....

This is what Shakil Bakat, head of global product development at Moto had to say, he said that the company doesn’t “see enough pull in the market to put [a new smartwatch] out at this time,” though it may revisit the market in the future should technologies for the wrist improve. “Wearables do not have broad enough appeal for us to continue to build on it year after year.” This inadvertently means that the smartwatch will no more figure out in the Moto’s roadmap....
