With Adam Rawnsley   Looking for a deal. Michael Flynn, President Donald Trump’s former national security adviser, has offered to be interviewed by the FBI and House and Senate investigators examining the Trump campaign’s potential ties to Russia, in exchange for immunity from prosecution, “but has so far found no takers,” according to the Wall Street Journal. In a statement on Thursday evening, Flynn’s lawyer Robert Kelner, […]

Rackspace CEO Taylor Rhodes: “Amazon is a tornado.” Rackspace CEO Taylor Rhodes is disarmingly honest about the ride the company has been on in recent years. This is what happens, he says, “when the world’s largest bookseller comes into your industry.” It wasn’t Amazon’s bookselling ability that caused Rackspace headaches, of course, but its cloud computing division Amazon Web Services (AWS). Rackspace started out as web hosting […]

President Trump’s Air Force Secretary nominee, Heather Wilson, told the Senate Armed Services Committee on March 30 that she had consulted honorably for four U.S. nuclear weapons laboratories years ago, even though she never produced a detailed written accounting of how she had spent her time while earning $20,000 a month.  Wilson, a former Air Force pilot and House lawmaker who now runs the South Dakota School […]

Any sufficiently advanced parody is indistinguishable from reality. That’s an extreme paraphrase of Poe’s Law, but it applies to so much of our world today. Including the management of Twitter. On Thursday, Twitter announced more changes to the way it works. Soon after, an image started circulating which supposedly explained these changes. And it was so confusing. “Replies now part of Timeline. Timeline and TimelLine are now […]

Same.Image: POOL/EPA/REX/Shutterstock By Keith Wagstaff2017-03-31 03:38:55 UTC No Donald. Just, no.  The president tweeted out a video Thursday about how “only by enlisting the full potential of women in our society will we truly be able to (you have not heard this expression before) make America great again.” Hmm, I wonder what people on the internet will think of this message. It’s not like Trump was caught […]

Palmer Luckey is out at Facebook. The Oculus co-founder, who helped kick start the recent VR with a prototype headset built in his parents garage, has left its parent company. Oculus has confirmed the report, first spotted by UploadVR, with TechCrunch in a fairly cookie cutter statement. “Palmer will be dearly missed,” it reads. “Palmer’s legacy extends far beyond Oculus. His inventive spirit helped kickstart the modern VR revolution and build […]

According to RBC’s cross-asset strategist, Charlie McElligott, two things are behind today’s (painfully volumeless) market rally: i) a return of “policy divergence”, following yesterday’s hawkish announcements by the Fed (“up to 4 hikes”) offset by dovish hints by the ECB, which in turn is powering the dollar higher, and ii) OPEC “deal extension speculation” pushing oil prices higher. The result: the general reflation trade is back on. […]

President Duterte fears this pervasive problem will remain unabated if the elections of barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) will be held as scheduled this coming October 23. So again, the President suggested another postponement of the barangay and SK elections.  “Narco-politics […]

Similar examples are all over the internet, with tech fans using specs […]

LONDON Britain will tell Google, Facebook, Twitter, and Microsoft on Thursday to do more to stop extremists posting content on their platforms and using encrypted messaging services to plan attacks. Home Secretary Amber Rudd said on Sunday tech companies should stop offering a “secret place for terrorists to communicate”, after British parliament attacker Khalid Masood was widely reported to have sent encrypted messages moments before he killed […]

It appears negotiations between the Trump/Ryan camps and the conservative Freedom Caucus over Obamacare repeal have not only gone nowhere but are back to square one, or perhaps zero, because moments ago Donald Trump, who had taken a modest sabbatical from his favorite social network, lashed out on Twitter against the conservative group that scuttled last Friday’s repeal vote, saying “The Freedom Caucus will hurt the entire […]

HANOI: Vietnam on Thursday criticised a U.S. State Department award to detained blogger and environmental activist Nguyen Ngoc Nhu Quynh, often referred to by her pen name, “Mother Mushroom”.

A Google Maps beta had a neat feature in testing to help users remember where they parked their cars, but it’s apparently no longer in the mix.

The feature stirred quite some interest as it […]

Authored by Konstantin Richter via Politico.eu, Last weekend, European leaders gathered in Rome for the 60th anniversary of the Treaty of Rome.

But let’s just suppose that, when the […]
