Leaked photograph of the Motorola Moto X4 from December now said to be the real thing


For those of you awaiting news on the fourth generation Motorola Moto X, we have something interesting to tell you. This year, we should see the device given the moniker of the Motorola Moto X4. But that isn’t what we really wanted to tell you. Actually, we want you to think back to December when the sun set much earlier, the temperature was colder, and no one was parading around Apple like Chicken Little screaming that “the sky is falling.”


In fact it was the middle of December when a leaked image of the fourth generation Moto X graced our site. At the time, the device was still being tested … – Source

Tablets in general haven’t really been doing too well in the market, but Samsung wants to keep trying it seems.

Radiohead’s new song “Daydreaming” — which dropped Friday with an eerie, Paul Thomas Anderson-directed video — is a very, very slow build.


Beginning with a minimal piano riff, Thom Yorke’s voice doesn’t come in until around 1:20. Tortured vocals appear the 2-minute mark, and half a minute later is when the tempo finally starts the quicken. Ominous strings show up 5 minutes in.
