Booting Up: Android trial could dial up phone chaos
The largest intellectual property trial in history wraps up today, with a jury poised to decide whether to bring mass upheaval to the Android operating system, which is relied upon by 84 percent of mobile-phone users.Closing arguments are scheduled to be heard in Oracle’s $9 billion case against Google, in which the software giant claims that the Android maker ripped off dozens of programs from the software platform Java that were proprietary but also in a publicly available online library.While..>> view original2016 Suzuki Vitara RT-X Diesel Arrives In Australia - Price, Features and Specifications

Loyal readers of this column know that I am a huge fan of two technologies that I feel can hugely reduce our traffic woes. One of these technologies is currently in use, Uber, and the second, self-driving vehicles, is something that I think will have a massive impact in the future. Ironically these two technologies have recently merged in Pittsburgh as Uber is set to test self-driving vehicles in its fleet in Pennsylvania. This is great news for traffic but unfortunate news for Uber drivers.For ..>> view originalDrone captures shark feeding frenzy

These breath test gates are already operational in Sweden, so it doesn’t seem so far-fetched that we could soon have them in Australia. “We’ll start off wit..>> view originalHow Microsoft's tricky new Windows 10 pop-up deceives you into upgrading
This morning, the unthinkable happened: My wife, an avowed PC user who long ago swore to never touch an Apple device, started shopping around for a Mac Mini. And it’s all thanks to Windows 10. Or rather, the nasty new way that Microsoft’s tricking Windows 7 and 8 users into automatically updating to Windows 10. I adore Windows 10, but I’ve long been a vocal critic of the heavy-handed tactics that Microsoft’s been using to force people into the upgrade, all to hit a goal of migrating 1 billi..>> view originalBlue-chip miners take a shine to Tomcar's electric vehicles
