“The Unicode Character Database, Code Charts, and Annexes for Version 11.0 will be released on June 5, 2018. The core specification (the PDF chapters) of Version 11.0 is still pending publication due to the extensive editorial work required for the new content additions. Until final publication, the links to individual chapters of the core specification will not be activated. An announcement will be made when the core specification for Version 11.0 is available. In the meantime, implementers can continue to reference the relevant sections of the most recent version of the core specification,” says the Unicode page.

Clash of Clans – The Attack Strategy Everyone Needs to Learn

The reason why Clash of Clans managed to keep its popularity over the years is that there are hundreds of strategies that players can use. Even though Clash of Clans can be played by anyone, the game is super complex and the difference between a good player and a great player is the strategies that they use. With that being said, today we are going to present players with the most effective attack strategy which is going to help them get a higher rank.

Barbarians and Archers

The most essential attack strategy that all Clash of Clans players need to learn is the barbarians and archers one. These are two of the most basic troops that Clash of Clans have access to and despite their simplicity, they can prove to be quite useful. Clash of Clans players want to recruit as many barbarians and archers as they can and then pair them up with a couple of wall breakers to clear up the path.

Cost Efficient

The best thing about this attack strategy is that it is cost-efficient. If you ever played Starcraft, then you probably heard about “zerg rush”. The barbarians and archers strategy is fairly similar to “zerg rush” because it is cost-efficient and players can use it right from the start of the game.

Collectors Loot

Another great thing about this attack strategy is that it can be used to obtain loot from collectors. Clash of Clans players should be happy to know that they can take all the loot from collectors by only using five or ten barbarians and archers.

Simple to Use

Clash of Clans was originally launched back in 2012, and this means that there is a big learning curve between veteran players and newer ones. Fortunately, the barbarians and archers strategy is simple to use and everyone can give it a try without having to device complicated paths or attack routes.

Google Play Services 12.6.88 Download Update Available – Improved Stability and Performance

The Android parent releases a new version of its operating system every year. Take for example how Android 8.0 Oreo replaced the famous Android 7.0 Nougat. Nonetheless, the operating system gets better with every version because everything gets revamped starting with basic features and ending with the UI (user interface).

However, there is one app that never gets changed or removed in the process of updating the operating system. The app we are talking about is called Google Play Services and despite most people not knowing what it does, Google Play Services is essential to Android smartphones.

Google Play Services 12.6.88 Update

As previously mentioned, Google Play Services is a key component of all Android operating system and therefore, it should come as no surprise that Google’s developers are constantly releasing new updates for it. The latest update for Google Play Services changes its version number to “12.6.88” and it is available in the form of APK right now.

Since Google Play Services is a background app that ensures everything works fine, the new update doesn’t introduce any groundbreaking features or visual changes. However, the new update comes with a bunch of software tweaks that improve Google Play Services’ stability.

APK (Android Package Kit)

In case you didn’t know, APK is an acronym for Android Package Kit and this means that Android users are the only ones allowed to download this type of updates. Fun fact about APKs is that all apps release APK versions of their latest updates so that beta testers and eager users can get their hands on them before they are rolled out through OTA (over the air) channels.

Another important thing that we need to mention about APK updates is that Android users are required to manually download and install them on their devices. Moreover, users are also required to enable the “Install apps from unknown sources” option first.

iOS 11.3.1 Jailbreak Tool is On The Way

Apple started rolling out its latest iOS 11.4 a couple of days ago which features a new version AirPlay 2 and iMessages in Cloud. However, not everyone is that willing to receive all of Apple’s latest updates because this means that their operating system cannot be jailbroken anymore. Talking about iOS jailbreaks, Apple fans who enjoy installing Cydia and all other free apps on their iPhones should be happy to know that an iOS 11.4 SEP (Secure Enclave Processor) jailbreak took is close to being launched.

Ian Beer Exploit

Ian Beer is a security analyst who is renowned for his ability to find exploits in Apple’s operating system. The security analysts always announce the exploits that he manages to find and these are used by hackers and software developers to create jailbreak tools.

Nonetheless, Ian Beer recently unveiled that there is an exploit in iOS 11.3.1 and that he is working with the CoolStar team in order to create an iOS 11.3.1 jailbreak tool. To make things even better, the exploit is being incorporated into an upgraded version of Electra which features Min Zheng’s KPP bypass.

iOS 11.3.1 Jailbreak Tool

With that being said, Apple fans who are still running on iOS 11.1.2 and waiting for a jailbreak tool should make sure to update to iOS 11.3.1. We should also mention that Apple devices which are running on an older version of the 11.2.1 toolkit can still upgrade their operating system to iOS 11.3.1 by using saved SHSH2 blobs.

As previously mentioned, Apple rolled out iOS 11.4 and this means that the Cupertino based tech giant might want to stop signing iOS 11.3.1. Fortunately, this is not going to be an issue for any jailbreak fans since they can use the SHSH2 blobs and get iOS 11.3.1 without any problems.
