Even if Apple spoiled its event the day before it has happened, it has still a few things to announces. More precisely, it has 5 products to announce: (Y)OSX Yosemite, iOS 8.1, new iPads, iMac Retina and the Mac Mini. OSX Yosemite Not new things to see since WWDC (except iTunes 12), but Craig Federighi took some time to recap all the new features that was introduced this summer. If you want more details, you can read John Siracusa’s extensive review on Ars Technica (be careful, it’s a 26,485 words behemoth) or see the new features on Apple’s website.…

Re/Code : “Ireland’s plan to close a “Double Irish” tax loophole could cost U.S. companies including Apple and Google billions of dollars, although a new break and pressure to tackle tax avoidance elsewhere means they are unlikely to decamp.” Finally, the E.U is taking some actions against tax evasion taking place in Ireland, Luxembourg and Netherlands. It’s time to end the economical disadvantaged induced by those taxes policies, whether it’s the" Double Irish" or the “Dutch Sandwich”, or anything else.…

The Verge : The Nexus Player takes the shape of a sleek-looking puck around 4.7-inches in diameter. It comes with a tiny remote with just a few buttons on it, one of which allows you to enable a microphone to perform a voice search — it’s actually a lot like what you’d find with Amazon’s Fire TV. The box includes 8GB of internal storage and is able to stream over 802.…

The Verge : Google is today introducing the Nexus 6, the latest in its line of smartphones designed to show off the capabilities of new Android releases. This is the biggest Nexus phone that Google has released yet, adopting a 6-inch display — bigger than both the iPhone 6 Plus and Galaxy Note 4. Like the Note 4, Google’s Nexus 6 also uses a Quad HD display, which means that text and images on the phone should still be really sharp, despite its large size.…

The Verge : Apple has made an unusual blunder ahead of its Thursday press event; the company has accidentally revealed both of its new iPads: the iPad Air 2 and iPad mini 3. An official user guide for iOS 8 in the iTunes Store has apparently had its screenshots updated ahead of schedule; both new iPads are pictured, and the images reveal each will have a Touch ID fingerprint sensor. Aside from the addition of Touch ID, it seems these latest iPads will look nearly identical to their predecessors.…

Re/Code : French carrier Iliad said Monday it is giving up on plans to acquire T-Mobile US, following discussions with majority owner Deutsche Telekom and the T-Mobile US board. It’s not really a surprise, if you look at the size of Illiad, and the will of it’s main shareholder, Xavier Niel, to not run into a huge debt. But it’s not a good news for U.S. citizens, if you look at the mobile subscriptions prices and all the Comcast bulls**t.…

fma16.com become lawgier.net. “Fma16 blog” is not original enough for a blog name. I needed a pun. So I made an awful one. But I like it. Why Lawgier? 2 things : I study law. In French, the first syllable of my name is pronounced like law : it’s kinda like law-ge-ey with a very flat accent. THAT PUN IS AWESOME!!! (And that’s make 3) So, that’s it.

Bradley Chambers : When the iPhone was released in 2007 with a “desktop class” web browser, it was widely praised. You could view entire websites on a mobile device. Coming from the days of WAP optimized sites on my Motorola Q, this was incredible. If we fast forward to 2014, Mobile Safari has become the app that is holding the iPad back from becoming a fully featured laptop replacement for a lot of people.…
