The story behind the funniest e-mail Hillary Clinton has ever sent
The body of the e-mail is five words long. It reads: “Where are we on this?”
The subject line, meanwhile, says only: “Gefilte fish.”

NASA Crashes a Plane to Make Finding Crashed Planes Easier
Sometimes, you’ve got a good reason to take a 1970s plane, fill it with dummies and electronics, and drop it 100 feet onto a pile of dirt. At least, NASA does.

Motorola has made it official: the new Moto X Pure Edition will go up for pre-order in the US tomorrow. As previously announced, it will start at $399, and the only way you’re going to be able to get one will be if you use Motorola’s Moto Maker service. This means all units will be sold unlocked, you will not find this device at any of the carriers (though Verizon is apparently working on its own variation of the Moto X Play, but that’s another handset entirely).
The new Moto X Pure Edition is going to be called that only in the United States, for whatever reason. In the rest of the world, the exact same product will be sold as the Moto X Style. This was unveiled in July alongside the Moto X Play.
Motorola says the Moto X Pure Edition works on “all major networks”, and the price is really competitive given its specs. The handset comes with a 5.7-inch QHD touchscreen, a 21 MP rear camera with dual-tone dual-LED flash, a 5 MP front snapper with a LED flash of its own, Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 808 SoC with hexa-core CPU, 3GB of RAM, 16 / 32 / 64GB of expandable storage, and a 3,000 mAh battery. It runs Android 5.1.1 Lollipop.
Oddly enough, this isn’t the first time Motorola unveils a launch date for the Moto X Pure Edition through a tweet – the same thing happened last month, though the date was different and that tweet eventually got deleted. Hopefully that won’t be the case this time…

Tras el lanzamiento del más reciente buque insignia, el actual LG G4, la firma surcoreana no ha mencionado en absoluto sus próximos planes para lanzar nuevos dispositivos Android. Pese a esto, la rumorología nos deja todo tipo de información, y entre estas conocemos sus intenciones de lanzar más de un buque insignia por año. Hasta ahora solo hemos conocido la existencia del LG G4 Pro, un phablet tope de gama con lo último del mercado y unas especificaciones que, encima del papel nos dejan boquiabiertos.
Sin embargo, una nueva filtración que detallan desde Phandroid confirma que la firma ha registrado la marca ‘LG G4 Note’, ¿será el LG G4 Pro con otro nombre o un dispositivo totalmente distinto?
La filtración no trae prácticamente información del nuevo terminal, pero sí apreciamos algunos detalles en la imagen que revelan ciertas características, además del logo oficial del phablet en cuestión. Aún así, si nos basamos en pasadas filtraciones sí podemos detallar alguna que otra característica.
Como bien podemos apreciar en la imagen, aparece la palabra ‘stylus for smartphones’, que claramente junto al logotipo nos confirma que se trata de un phablet. Sus especificaciones son totalmente desconocidas, pero seguramente y al tratarse de un claro competidor del Samsung Galaxy Note 5, es más que probable que incorpore un panel de 5,8 pulgadas con resolución QHD, Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 de ocho núcleos, 4 GB de RAM LPDDR4, batería superior a los 3.000 mAh y el nuevo sensor de la cámara principal del LG G4 que tan buenos resultados ofrece, junto al estabilizador óptico y el láser autofocus.
Y para especular aún más y diferenciarse del resto de phablets, debería incorporar algunas características como el lector de huellas dactilares o el conector USB Tipo-C por ejemplo, todas ellas aún no vistas en ningún terminal de LG y que tanta falta le hace para progresar en el difícil mercado actual.
No sabemos en qué momento aparecerá a la venta, ni siquiera su precio, pero deseamos que haga acto de presencia en el IFA en Berlín y que podamos probarlo para hacer un primeras impresiones.
¿Y tú que piensas? Pásate por LG registra la marca G4 Note: el nuevo phablet está más cerca de lo previsto para dejar tu huella.

In August, Motorola said that the Moto X Pure Edition would be available beginning September 3, but then quickly removed any mention of that. Turns out that Motorola was apparently only kind of teasing potential Moto X Pure Edition owners.
Motorola just tweeted out earlier today that the Mot X Pure Edition will begin pre-orders on Wednesday, September 2. Unfortunately, Motorola wasn’t kind enough to give an exact launch date just yet, but it’s been suggested by P3Droid — who has a longstanding track record with providing information regarding Motorola — that the Moto X Pure Edition will start shipping the week of September 13.
Hopefully Motorola doesn’t change its mind on pricing for the Moto X Pure Edition, which is said to start at $399. There will be customization options through Moto Maker as well. It will be sold unlocked, and Motorola says that you’ll be able to use it on any of the major four wireless carriers in the United States.
As a quick refresher, the Moto X Pure Edition features a 5.7-inch display with a resolution of 2560×1440. There’s a Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 processor under the hood with 3GB of RAM, and it comes in either 16GB/32GB/64GB variants. There’s a 21-megapixel camera on the back, with a 5MP front-facing shooter on the other side. The battery is measured in at 3000mAh.
Do you plan on picking up the Moto X Pure Edition?

Motorola’s upcoming 2nd generation Moto 360 will finally get official next week, on September 8, following a couple of months of ample leaks about it.
And to top things off, today a handful of leaked press renders of different Moto 360 (2015) variations have been compiled, for your viewing pleasure, into the image you can see below.
Like with its predecessor, the original Moto 360, it looks like this year’s smartwatch offering from Motorola will not be lacking in customization options. It’s also probable that it will be offered through Moto Maker, the company’s online customization portal, which allows you to quickly configure a Motorola product the way you like it.
The new Moto 360 will come in two sizes, in a move that emulates what Apple’s done in this space. The bigger of the two will be as big as last year’s model, while the other one will be smaller. Neither will have a fully circular display, though, since the ‘flat tire’ design is here to…
