Marshmallow update starts rolling out to Motorola Droid Turbo 2 Employee Edition

Posted on by

The Motorola Droid Turbo 2 Employee Edition smartphone – which is basically a limited edition red Droid Turbo 2 exclusive to Verizon employees – has started receiving the Marshmallow update.

The update, which bumps the software version to 24.11.13, brings standard Marshmallow features including Doze, Google Now on Tap, and redesigned app permissions. It also leads us to believe that Android 6.0 for the regular Droid Turbo 2 would also roll out soon.

OwnCloud se une a WD para ayudarte a crear tu propia nube

Posted on by

package

OwnCloud es una de las alternativasde almacenamiento más destacadas, principalmente por el hecho de permitir a los usuarios crear su propia nube. Hemos hablado varias veces de esta herramienta, que ahora vuelve a ser noticia gracias al proyecto que han lanzado junto con Western Digital (WD) para favorecer la llegada de soluciones ‘caseras’ de almacenamiento en la nube.

La idea es que los interesados puedan crear proyectos basados en el software de ownCloud y el hardware de Western Digital, en concreto de sus discos duros de 1 terabyte. Pero en este último apartado hay otro ‘invitado’, y se trata del Raspberry Pi 2, otro conocido de quienes visitan esta página.

El objetivo detrás de este proyecto es el de fomentar la llegada de soluciones que a través de estas tecnologías puedan ofrecer a los usuarios soluciones integrales de almacenamiento ‘propio’, como siempre ha sido el espíritu de ownCloud.

Para participar hay que registrarse en la página de ownClod antes del 17 de Diciembre, y aquellos cuyas propuestas resulten aprobadas recibirán un kit de desarrollo para que puedan comenzar a trabajar en su propuesta. El kit consta de un Raspberry Pi con una tarjeta SDHC que tiene berryboot instalado, un disco duro externo Western Digital de 1 TB, manuales y cables; todo lo cual se podrá integrar con el software de ownCloud claro está, y para Febrero o Marzo se espera la llegada de los productos que hayan sido elegidos.

OnePlus X ditching invites, but only on Tuesdays

Posted on by

It was only about a month and a half ago that the OnePlus X first launched, but the phone is already going invite-free. The catch is that it’ll only be invite-free on a single day of the week.

OnePlus announced today that the OnePlus X will now be available without an invite every Tuesday. The OnePlus X Tuesday open sales will start this week, so you’ll be able to snag an X without an invite tomorrow.

While this isn’t quite the same as the OnePlus One and OnePlus 2’s open availability, which make the phones available invite-free every single day. Given that OnePlus is already making the OnePlus X available invite-free for one day of the week, and that it’s probably not quite as in demand as the One and 2, we could see the OnePlus X going totally invite-free at some point in the near future.

Now that the OnePlus X will be available without an invite every Tuesday, are you tempted to pick one up?

Drivers and Riders Will Lose from Unionized Uber

Posted on by

On Monday the Seattle City Council voted to extend collective bargaining to people who drive with ridesharing companies such as Uber and Lyft—even though these drivers are not employees of the companies. Though this move may be ruled illegal, Seattle’s push to unionize Uber and its competitors shows that many politicians do not understand what drives a 21st century workforce, nor younger workers’ goals.
