 For Stephen Colbert, only "one big story" came out of Wednesday's news cycle."America's step-daddy is angry," the late-night host quipped on CBS.For about 12 minutes on Wednesday morning, anyone tuned into a major TV network saw an irked President Donald Trump in the White House Rose Garden delivering what The Washington Post's Anne Gearan described as "the live-action movie version" of his Twitter feed.Or, as Mr Colbert put it: "Trump walked out the door straight to the Rose Garden for a nationally televised hissy fit."The unscheduled news conference came just moments after Trump stormed out of a planned White House meeting intended to discuss a $2 trillion (£1.58 trillion) infrastructure deal, angered by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi who had spoken to reporters earlier in the day and accused him of being "engaged in a cover-up."In the Rose Garden, Mr Trump said he told Democratic lawmakers that while he wanted "to do infrastructure", he would not work with them unless they "get these phony investigations over with"."Trump has a clear stance on infrastructure," Mr Colbert said on his show. "It's my way or no highways."Mr Colbert wasn't the only late-night host to dig into the president's lengthy remarks, during which he touted himself as "the most transparent president, probably, in the history of this country" and addressed impeachment, only referring to it as the "I-word".Fellow TV comics Jimmy Fallon, Seth Meyers and James Corden all dedi

 The import ban the Trump administration imposed on Huawei a few days ago was the next logical step in the trade war against China. While some people may have foreseen it, given the ZTE practice run from before, it still sent shockwaves through the industry. Huawei is prepared to fight, even as numerous business partners from the US and other countries confirm they're putting their business dealings with the Chinese giant on hold.One of the things Huawei confirmed earlier this week is that it'll move forward with an operating system of its own, which we'll call Huawei OS for lack of a better alternative, and which could launch as early as fall. That operating system is based on Android, and it's supposed to run both on smartphones and tablets. But, make no mistake, Huawei needs Google's version of Android and Microsoft's Windows 10, no matter what.Huawei might be in a hard place right now, but things will work out one way or the other. With the ban in place, it's not just Huawei that loses, but US and international companies as well. That said, Huawei will probably want to be more prepared in the future, which is why it makes sense to see it launch an operating system of its own.Huawei OS, however, only has a chance to catch on over in China, where Google doesn't have a presence, and where Huawei could easily make an Android of its own. Convincing smartphone users in Western markets to ditch a phone with Google's Android, on the other hand, will be an uphill battle. Huawei doesn't h

Microsoft on Monday returned to the Mac browser market when it released the first public preview of its revamped Edge browser for macOS.
Delivery of the "Canary" edition for macOS came two weeks after prodigious Windows leaker WalkingCat, also known by his Twitter account @h0x0d, tweeted the download links for the Canary and more polished Dev builds of Edge for the Mac.
