To explain the situation, a Samsung Galaxy Book2 has been floating around my lounge for some time – partly as a great device to read the internet or email quickly, but also to keep up with how the Windows situation on Arm chips is developing. The short answer is not very well.

Last year I tried out the Insta360 One X2 and loved the capability of the camera and the powerful editing software that lets you capture content and worry about all of the details later. The Insta360 One RS offers an experience similar to what you see on a GoPro action camera but with even more capability thanks to its interchangeable lenses.

Not as complex as it sounds, Kohler’s new “system” just consists of an attachable gadget that connects to a showerhead. While the gadget was designed with Kohler showerheads in mind, it’s compatible with most other showerheads, so you can still trick out your non-Kohler shower with the Sprig. Also: What tech is in the CES bag of ZDNET’s Editor in Chief? Once the gadget and showerhead are connected, you insert a Sprig pod and the system will release a vitamin-infused, scented pod cocktail into the water....

If you haven’t already mastered Linux, however, you should make this powerful and surprisingly ubiquitous operating system a top priority. Similar in many ways to the infamous Unix framework, Linux can be thought of largely as the operating system that other major operating systems rely on—making it a foundational system that lies at the heart of everything from the Android OS to major networking infrastructures and communication systems.

The chassis is compact considering it houses a 14-inch screen, measuring 313mm wide by 223mm deep by 14.9mm thick (12.32in. x 8.77in. x 0.59in.). It didn’t trouble even the smallest of my carry bags. The ‘starting at’ weight is quoted very precisely on Lenovo’s UK website at 1.399kg, although the US site just settles for 3lbs, which converts to 1....

The South Korean electronics maker was initially met with resistance from local phone distributors over the plan, which considered it to be a violation of an agreement that prevented anti-competitive behaviour from LG and Samsung.

Fans will be hoping for a safe and red flag-free race when the Austrian MotoGP kicks off on 15 August. But, some may face problems in streaming the Austrian MotoGP on Sunday.

Even if you have a subscription, accessing your usual stream may be problematic if you’re traveling as it could have been geo-restricted by the provider....

Disclosed by the Apache Software Foundation on December 9, Log4Shell will likely take years to remediate because of how widely the error-logging software component is used in applications and services. Microsoft warns that customers might not be aware of how widespread the Log4j issue is in their environment. Over the past month, Microsoft has released numerous updates, including to its Defender security software, to help customers identify the issue as attackers stepped up scanning activity....
