Despite being denied by executives after rumors originally surfaced, the stock, Nexus Experience HTC One “Google Edition” is making headlines again today, after the source who originally leaked information on the Samsung Galaxy S4 with stock Android is saying a “Senseless” One is on the way. Russell Holly of Geek.com is reporting that sources tell him the launch of a Senseless HTC One, complete with stock Android, is “imminent.” Apparently, the chatter that has been getting louder surrounding the announcement of the Samsung Galaxy S4 running stock Android was the final push needed to get HTC on board with the idea. HTC’s Senior Global Online Communications Manager, Jeff Gordon, reached out to Android and Me to say that, “HTC is not currently planning a ‘Nexus Edition’ of the HTC One,” shortly after the original rumor on the such a device was started on Twitter, but things can change. According to Holly, the stock HTC One could be announced as soon as the next two weeks. The device could see a summer release, right around the time production of the One is scheduled to double, and an update to Android 4.2.2 is delivered to the original handset. As for how this device would be sold and updated, that’s still a mystery. One of the big selling points of the Nexus Experience Galaxy S4 is that it will be sold unlocked through Google Play, and updated directly by Google. We’ll be keep our ears to ground for more information. In the meantime, which would you pick: a stock Galaxy S4, or a stock HTC One? Let us know in the comments.

First time accepted submitter awaissoft writes "There's big, then there's really big, and then there's colossal, which might be a good word to use when describing a near 46,000-pound Lego X-Wing that made a triumphant debut Thursday in New York's Times Square. The full-size replica, about 42 times the size of the Lego Star Wars X-Wing set available on store shelves, celebrates the debut of Cartoon Network's The Yoda Chronicles, which premieres on May 29 at 8 p.m. It took a small army of 32 Lego master builders, housed in a facility in the Czech Republic, to build the 45,980-pound, or 23-ton, Lego ship. It stands 11 feet high and 43 feet long, and contains more than 5 million Lego pieces." Read more of this story at Slashdot.

Those among the tech crowd love the stock Android experience and tend to shout belligerent remarks against anything that isn’t stock Android, such as Samsung’s TouchWiz interface and HTC’s Sense UI. While stock Android offers an immaculate, unadulterated, and bloat-free Android experience, TouchWiz, Sense UI, and other OEM skins also have a very important part to play in the world of Android. A smartphone for everyone While there are many reasons why Android is a great operating system, there’s one in particular that sticks out to me: open source. The benefit to Android being open source is that a number of manufacturers can create their smartphones based off of Android while offering a different experience through the use of a custom skin, such as TouchWiz or Sense UI. Consumers who aren’t fond of stock Android still have other experiences they can try out while staying within the Android ecosystem. Let’s face it, not everyone is going to like a pure Android experience, and not everyone is going to like TouchWiz, Sense UI, Motoblur, or some other OEM skin. One of the reasons why many people use Android over iOS is the fact that Android has so many faces thanks to the variety of Android ROMs (stock and non-stock) that can be further customized by each user. Not including jailbreaks, there isn’t another iOS device in the world that offers a different UI experience while letting you stay in the iOS ecosystem. That’s where Android has the upper hand. While many see OEM skins as a plague to Android, they’re actually a benefit. In the end, there are more Android users than there would be if stock Android was the only experience available. After all, how many Android-powered Galaxy S4′s did Samsung sell this month? Stock Android, TouchWiz, Sense UI, Motoblur, and other OEM skins all are very beneficial to Android. This stock Android versus [insert OEM skin here] feud is pointless. In the end, Android, as an operating system, wins. The “bloat” problem As I mentioned earlier, folks, stock Android offers an immaculate, unadulterated, and bloat-free Android experience. On the other side of the spectrum, TouchWiz, Sense UI, Motoblur, and other OEM skins are loaded with unneeded bloatware. It’s the one downside to OEM skins, and there’s really no way to get rid of the bloatware, as it’s installed on a device’s /system partition. You could root your device to dispose of it, but that’s hardly a solution for the everyday consumer. Here’s the kicker though, the only people that really hate bloatware are among the tech crowd. I’m going out on a limb here, but I’d say bloatware is useful for the average Joe. Features like S Health, S Voice, ChatON, and dare I say Group Play, can be found useful among the everyday user. Sure, the tech crowd and some consumers know that there are better alternatives in the Play Store, but this isn’t the case for the large majority. With that said, bloatware isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. Believe it or not, it can be beneficial to Android. When HTC announced the One, its flagship for 2013, people were very interested in features like HTC Zoe, BoomSound, and BlinkFeed. The hardware? Not so much. The large majority is more interested in features and software than hardware. Another example is Xiaomi’s Mi2S smartphone running MIUI atop of Android that are selling in droves. While they’re unfortunately not available on international markets, the smartphone is still extremely popular among Chinese buyers. Considering it’s wild success, you’d expect that the buyers really enjoy MIUI, which can also be flashed on supported devices. That said, the more appeal devices like the Galaxy S4, HTC One, or Mi2S have, the more people are going to buy them, thus benefiting Android even further.

With all the emphasis that Microsoft is giving to its redesigned Kinect sensor as a key feature of the Xbox One, it's not surprising that the company wants to bring it to its Windows operating system as well. And sure enough, Microsoft on Thursday announced that it will "deliver a new generation Kinect for Windows sensor next year" that will deliver several improvements to the previous version of Kinect, including a higher resolution camera capable of more accurately tracking and identifying objects, an expanded field of view and improved skeletal tracking. Microsoft says it will share more details about the next-generation Kinect for Windows at its BUILD 2013 conference in June and also says that the new sensor will likely be available on Window-based devices sometime next year.
