Today's Story Highlights
Apple Watch Could Be a Password Alternative
With password tolerance levels at all time low, alternatives to the pesky and insecure authenticators are beginning to abound. One of those
alternatives could be the Apple Watch. Even before Apple's latest gadget
began shipping last week, MicroStrategy announced it was extending its
Usher enterprise security solution to the Apple Watch. Usher on the
Apple Watch allows it to act as a digital key.

Can LG's Hot G4 Smoke the Competition?
LG on Tuesday unveiled its latest flagship smartphone, the G4. The official launch followed weeks of leaks about the device's design and
features. The G4 has an f1.8 aperture lens; a new IPS Quantum display,
which is generally seen in the latest TVs; a body curved in LG's "Slim
Arc" design; and six genuine leather color options. Its rear 16-MP
camera has a manual mode and a color spectrum sensor.

Vivid Vervet Doesn't Have Much Meat on Its Bones
You will not see much new in Ubuntu 15.04, aka "Vivid Vervet," unless you peer under the hood. The release of Ubuntu 15.04 for the desktop
includes mostly maintenance and bug fixes, along with new integrated
menus and dashboard usability improvements. Perhaps the most significant
technical change in this desktop release is the adoption of Systemd to
replace the default init manager system.
