BREAKING apple news

When your favorite consumer tech company is also the best consumer tech company in the world, and said tech company is generally a magnet for hyperbole and blind customer loyalty -- while also producing more products at higher levels of quality than ever before -- what's left to really wish for? Plenty, it turns out. I'm not talking about a new Apple car or even any special new product category. As it turns out, I just want some simple things to work better. I'd like to see some refinements, really, small shifts in priority from Apple's various teams. Right now, most of Apple's products are like big glorious plate glass windows... that somehow still have a sticker attached to one outside corner. Why? So what do I hope to see in 2016? 1. Better Apple Watch Battery Life My Apple Watch is pretty cool and all, but you know what's not cool? Having to charge the thing every single day. Sure, I'm resigned to the fact (and habit) of charging my iPhone every sin...

Five ways to celebrate a digital Christmas

Image
Nothing says Christmas more than watching that Harry Potter movie you've already seen 2,900 times, eating a mountain of lukewarm turkey and trying to work out where you're going to put all those new socks. Let's not forget the traditional argument with your other half about whose job it was to buy all the batteries for the children's new toys - which are currently a source of tension because nobody can turn them on. Am I right? If that sounds all too familiar and you fancy keeping the whole thing a bit more spiritual this year without giving up your gadgets, here are five ways to enjoy Christmas online: Log on to a virtual church and talk about Star WarsImage copyrightGetty ImagesImage captionThe hope awakens?

More than 45,000 drones have been registered with the FAA since Monday

Image
This month, the Federal Aviation Administration announced that drone owners have until February 19th, 2016, to register their units. That window opened on Monday, and in a new release, the FAA gave a short update on how many owners have registered so far. "The agency has seen strong initial demand, with more than 45,000 registrations completed since the site opened for business Monday afternoon," according to the release by the agency. It's a healthy start to the FAA's program, although it's still a considerable distance from full compliance, and the FAA will need to keep registration going at a strong pace to register so many drones already in the hands of consumers. In the statement, the FAA says more than 400,000 drones could be sold this holiday season alone. Any drones purchased after December 21st must be registered before they take their first flights, and the agency's release announced some website downtime "in advance of an expected rush of cust...

Microsoft let people vote for its next game and they chose a word game

Image
Microsoft decided to let fans pick what Windows' next casual game should be, and today the votes are in: it'll be a word game. I know what you're thinking: that's not very exciting. Fair assessment, but how exciting could that reveal have ever been? By definition this is a casual game — something kind of dry that you can pick up and put down, something that's never going to impress you or require much learning. Would Hearts or chess have been any more exciting? Okay, I might have been into chess. It just seems like a practical thing to have. "LETS" IS CLEARLY PLACED ILLEGALLY Microsoft doesn't say what specific games will be in its Ultimate Word Gamescollection, but its logo looks a littleScrabble-y, so that's a possibility (although, neither LP or SY are in theScrabble dictionary, so technically "Lets" would be an invalid word; I guess that could explain why it's sort of messily placed). The collection is suppose to include "...

Chip promises faster computing with light, not electrical wires

Image
A three-university project builds a prototype chip that communicates directly with fast fiber-optic links. Commercially viable versions are on the way. This silicon photonics chip communicates with fiber-optic links instead of electrical wires. Milos Popović/University of Colorado Boulder Today's computers may look very different from room-sized machines of the 1940s, but they still send data the same way, with electrical signals in metal wires. Researchers at three US universities, though, have built a chip that transmits data with light instead, lifting speed limits and lowering power consumption. The technology involved, called silicon photonics, is an active area of research at chipmakers like Intel and IBM, but so far it hasn't been a commercially viable idea. The researchers behind the new development -- at the University of California's Berkeley campus, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the University of Colorado's Boulder campus -- think they...
