Android P operating system has recently changed its gun emote; instead of an actual pistol, it now presents a water gun. The change can be pretty surely tracked to the latest mass shootout that recently have become America’s national pasttime. Since no company wishes to risk being somehow connected to the future and past trageides, many smartphone providers decide to ”chicken out” and remove any gun icons from their phones’ completely. Google is not the first one to do so, too: both Microsoft and Apple have got rid of them way in 2016. Gun emotes can still be found ...

Lenovo P2, launched back in the good ol’ days (yeah, right) of 2016, was a good phone. It sported a large 5.5′ display, Android 7.0 Nougat (second most popular Android OS to date) and a very large 5100mAh battery. Even today, without the upgrade to 8.0 Oreo, it is a reliable phone with a significant number of owners. Unfortunately, these owners are now facing a serious problem with their devices.An increasingly large number of Lenovo P2 units has problems with unlocking their bootloader. Whenever somebody tries to enable OEM unlocking in order to run the ”fastboot oem ...

It is official, folks: Google is releasing its Home and Home Mini smart speakers in India. Better late than never, as it has been over an year since both devices have been released on other markets. Their Indian prices are Rs 9,999 (around $154) and Rs 4,499 (roughly $69) respectively – more than in the US, since India prices tend to be that way for some or other economical reasons.

Yay, another reason for me to have a low opinion on our eastern cousins. Russian company Rudron/Expeditor 3M has recently organized an event in which it tested its expensive, experimental mail drone in a town of Ulan-Ude, Siberia. Well, test did not went all that well. Moments after takeoff the pilot lost control of the drone, and the machine crashed into a nearby building. There goes your 20k! The video of the test flight can be watched here. It is speculated that the area’s high WiFi signals have messed up drone’s controls, but most people in the know-how consider that ...
