Defence lawyers slam Malaysian police over Kim murder probe

Image
The Malaysian police's investigation into the murder of the North Korean leader's estranged half-brother was "shoddy" and could result in an unfair trial, a court heard Wednesday.

Opponents of President Vladimir Putin used graffiti on Thursday to take an ironic swipe at Russia over the nerve toxin attack on a former double agent.

S.Africa rages at Australia visa plan for 'persecuted' whites

Image
South Africa summoned Australia's envoy to Pretoria Thursday to explain comments by a Canberra minister who suggested "persecuted" white farmers in the country should be offered fast-tracked humanitarian visas. Australia's Home Affairs Minister Peter Dutton, who has drawn criticism for cracking down on asylum seekers from Asia and the Middle East, said white farmers could be admitted as refugees. Dutton made the offer in response to Pretoria's vow to enact land "expropriation without compensation" to redress land confiscations of the colonial and apartheid era. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines http://ift.tt/2peNFeW via Latest News

Google Pay on Wear OS expands to more markets

Google Pay (combination of Google Wallet and Android Pay) was officially available on Wear OS (formerly Android Wear) only in a couple of markets so far: the US and the UK. That changes now, as the service has expanded to three more countries, including Spain, Australia, and Canada. That'd explain why some users outside of the US and UK (see Reddit link below) are now able to access the functionality.

Nest releases Hello Doorbell and x Yale Lock

Nest is a hardware company that markets and sells home security cameras. The company was acquired back in 2014 in a $2.3 billion dollar acquisition. The company's newest products are the Hello and x Yale Lock. Nest Hello is a doorbell which can accurately be described as "Nest's version of the Ring Doorbell". The design is certainly less blocky and with more curves. The button's LED lights up as a guest approaches so it's easy to spot. The general concept is otherwise the same.

Apple supplier Wistron accused of using unauthorized components

Wistron's shares dropped 5% at the beginning of the day but managed to regain track and close at NT$26.50, just NT$0.45 shy of the opening price.
