No Man’s Sky Planets – Find The Most Awkward Ones

No Man’s Sky features a wide variety of randomly generated planets. Muyeseci is one of those rare is one of those planets seemingly ripped out of the Slender Man’s dreams. You will find a barren world, lacking any plants or animals. It does not even feature mountains or seas. A grim visage awaits you, filled with strange hexagonal metal circles and cyber structures similar to mushroom fungi.

I should have known better when I first saw the description of the planet in the scan. [Redacted] should have been a safe clue that something was wrong with Muyeseci.  It is only one of several planets in its system and after further exploration I have found some that look even creepier. At first it looked like just any other normal planet, with huge mountains, and vast oceans, reminiscent of Earth. Upon landing, I have seen one of the most desolate plains in video games. Countless metal structures, in the form of black rings covered the surface, reminiscent of same failed ritual or even a mass cemetery for the planet’s population.

While most of planets are generated randomly, you are able to apply certain ship upgrades which allow you to find them more easily. The key is to upgrade your Hyperdrive. But which one is right for you?

You will need three particular drives, the Cadmium, Emeril and Indium Hyperdrives. They will allow you to reach Reed, Green and blue star systems, were elusive exotic planets tend to appear more often. In order to reach the star systems you will have to progress through the drives in the mentioned order, as it is not possible to jump straight to the Iridium drive. You will need Cadmium from a Red system in order to develop the Emeril Hyperdrive and so on. Blueprints and other parts are available many Galactic Trade Terminals.

Go on and see where the stars will carry you!

Clash of Clans – Farming Strategies for Town Hall 12 with No Hero and Troops

The latest update for Clash of Clans introduced Town Hall 12 and this changed the entire game! Town Hall 12 adds more depth to the game and it gives players different strategies that they can use in order to dominate their enemies. However, the most important thing that Clash of Clans players can do now that Town Hall 12 is here is to devise a clever farming strategy for Town Hall 12 without needing to rely on clan castle troops or heroes.

Farming Strategies for Town Hall 12

We asked veteran Clash of Clans players about the farming strategies that they use when it comes to Town Hall 12 so that new players can get an idea of what type of tricks they can use. With that being said, let’s get into it.

Be Active!

“PaluEF” is a Forum Elder on the official Clash of Clans community forum and his advice for new players who are trying to farm for Town Hall 12 is to be active. The Forum Elder is saying that the cheapest way to farm without heroes and with Titan is: LaLooNion: 2 lavas, 30 loons, 2-3 BBdrags, rest minions (exchange minis for a few wbs if heroes), 2 rage, 1 clone, 1 freeze, 2 haste, and 1 poison.

Looting with Cheap Armies

Another forum users that goes by “Klavious” is saying that looting with cheap armies in lower leagues is not as profitable as it might sound. Therefore, “Klavious” advises new players to get Titans and hope for better loot.

Basic Troops

The user “2222” is a Game Specialist on the forum and he is saying that new players shouldn’t try to look for complicated farming strategies and stick with basic troops instead. Therefore, farming with Barch, goblins and so on will do the job just fine.

New from WhatsApp: Group Video and Audio Calls Available for Anyone

We have encountered our share of leaks, rumors and revelations about what can WhatsApp bring new to the game. Not long ago we wondered if we were ever going to contact a friend through video and Whatsapp finally made it happen. During Facebook’s F8 developer gathering that happened earlier this year (in May, to be exact) the big brains from WhatsApp revealed to us that group calls will be available soon.

Sure enough, by the end of May some lucky Whatsapp users gained this benefit and now the group video and audio call features are finally being delivered to all the users of this app. If you are curious about how exactly is it going to work, let us properly inform you. The basic principle is that four people can talk and see each other by using this new feature.

This means that you and three of your friends or co-workers will be able to be in contact at the same time with the opportunity of using a split-screen to see each other as well. It is pretty easy to do it, don’t worry. First, call one of your contacts and if you wish to talk to others, then all you have to do is add more participants by tapping the icon which can be found on the top corner of the app.

According to WhatsApp, you can be sure that all calls are safely encrypted and this feature is designed to work on various network conditions from all around the globe in a reliable fashion. This means that soon enough (if you are not using it already) you can talk to your entire family at once or conduct a small work meeting from home. We really do live in the age of technology.

Gibraltar United To Become The First Soccer Team In The World To Pay Its Players With Cryptocurrencies

Gibraltar United will become the first European soccer club to pay its players in cryptocurrencies. Thanks to a partnership with Quantocoin, the longest-running team in Gibraltar will become a pioneer in this type of operation.

Gibraltar is a country with an extremely open stance towards cryptos and blockchain technology

Thus, it is no surprise that a team from the country’s top professional soccer division is taking such a step. The club owner, Pablo Dana, has already said that all player contracts will include cryptocurrency payment arrangements for the coming season, as The Guardian reported.

Dana is an investor in Quantocoin, a project that seeks to launch a blockchain-based mobile banking application this year. Also, Heritage Sports Holdings, the team’s shareholder group, signed a partnership agreement with the company. According to this deal, players, fans and company employees can use Quantocoin’s services. That includes the possibility for the group to use cryptocurrencies to buy players.

Gibraltar was the first place that regulated gambling companies 20 years ago when everyone saw them as horrible. The government established anti-money laundering and compliance regulations and created a platform. They have the intelligence to do the same with cryptocurrency.

Cryptocurrencies and soccer have been increasingly intertwined in recent months

In mid-July, Didier Drogba, the striker of the Ivory Coast national team and clubs such as Chelsea, in England, the UK, became the commercial face of All.me, a social networking project with its own crypto token that seeks to share advertising revenue with users.

At the end of June, the Brazilian soccer clubs Atletico Paranaense and Corinthians unveiled the plans they have for using cryptocurrencies for 2019, in an initiative that involves the payment of salaries with cryptos, as well as allowing the fans to get involved.

Other soccer players such as Lionel Messi, James Rodriguez, Ronaldinho, Iniesta, or Puyol have also been associated with projects associated with blockchain technology or cryptocurrencies, demonstrating how this is a trend that is gaining momentum.

Third Quarter for Apple is all About iPhone X

We’ll be looking for clues about the next iPhone when Apple will show their fiscal results for this year.

Apple gives only small tips when it comes to announcing its new phone. Tim Cook, the CEO of Apple, gives some bombastic comments, for e.g. we are expecting an “exciting fall”. For financial analysts this will help estimate how many phones they’ll be able to sell in September after the new iPhone will be released.

The third quarter for Apple in financial terms means it’s the lowest period of each year when it comes to sales. For example, iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 plus have been released last September meaning they are in sales for over 9 months.

During this second and third quarter people have no longer an interest in the old iPhone but instead, they are looking forward for the next phone that comes to market. Last fall when they release iPhone X in November later than expected people still waited for the new iPhone or expected to lower prices for the older one.

Apple’s moneymaker is still the iPhone. They had some attempts to extend beyond the iPhone but all in vain. In Q2 of 2018 iPhone brought up 52.2 million phones that equal to 62% of sales. Also, services, iPad, Air Pods and Macs added to the earnings. Apple had strong results although some people thought the demand for the iPhone X has dropped.

The most expensive phone produced by Apple, the iPhone X started at $999 and was still the best-selling device in the last quarter of 2017.

The “future” of mobile devices came with iPhone X which redesigned its phone, removed the home button, expanded touchscreen to 5.8 inches and of course adding the new Face ID technology.

Sacconaghi predicts that the company sold 41.8 million iPhones in 2018, in comparison to 41.03 million in 2017.

As reported by Yahoo Finance shares had been rising to $2.18 a share from $1.67 a share last year. Also, sales are expected to grow up to 15% this year, roughly $52.3 billion.

September comes with big news for customers, Apple plans to introduce three new models: one which is considerably larger than iPhone X and a cheaper one.

Gene Munster from Loup Ventures figures that Apple’s iPhone has become a secure business. Business won’t see a sales pitch each year, but a flat 5% growth each year, as users won’t change their phones so frequently. We’ll see a growth in Apple Music, iCloud and App store, and that’s due to the large mass of consumers. Apple’s earnings grew up to 31%, that’s up to &9.19 billion in the second quarter, whilst sales grew up only to 2.8%.

On May 1st Cook said: “we have the best pipeline of products and services we’ve ever had”.
