Mister Sung also asks what should this device be called, so if you have come up with a good name, now is the time to use it.The device in question is a tablet which sides can be folded backwards into the shape of a smartphone. It looks roughly the same as the unit presented to us in Evan Blass’ leak earlier this month. Unlike Samsung Galaxy F, it does not equire a smaller outside ...

Leak reveals possible release date of foldable Samsung Galaxy smartphone
Earliest rumours placed the release of Galaxy F sometime in the first half of 2019; later info told us that the release will take place during the Galaxy S10 Unpacked event in February. Now, according to the Italian tech blog Tutto Android, we know that the Galaxy Fold device may be released sometime around March-April. The exact source of this rumour is unknown, but it is either a good liar or a good inside source, because it has shared some info on the device’s price as well; reportedly, Galaxy F will cost around 2270 USD.Whether or not the above info is legit is anyone’s ...
Facebook Community Actions. What is that?
Community Actions, new FB function, allows us to create online petitions. Such petition is a special post with a title, description and tags. Tags serve to, well, tag agency or organization that we want our petition to reach. The support button allows us to share the petition with other people – like a chain letter, only hopefully not as annoying. Discussions can be had under the petitions, but only after you decide to back them up.Community Actions is currently going through betatests in the US. Rumour is that the tests are going splendidly and there are no serious issues. Does FB ...
We know the music creator for Age of Empires IV
It will be one Mikołaj Stroiński, the same man who (along with currently working on Cyberpunk 2077 Marcin Przybyłowicz) has created the soundtrack for Witcher 3. The man does not have to be advertised to anyone who played W3 – if you do not remember, check out the game’s opening theme. Good? Good.Sadly, there is nothing new that we know about the game itself. It is being made by Relic Entertainment, veterans of the RTS genre, which is good. Its release date is unknown. What we do have is a teaser trailer that is definitely worth looking ...

Samsung Galaxy S10 benchmarked
The device scored 9570 points on the multi-core test and 4382 pointson the single-core test. These numbers are, somehow, much higher than the recent benchmark of Galaxy S10+, which scored consecutively 1571 and 1134 points less. Strange, seeing how both devices run on Exynos 9820 CPU and 6 gigabytes of RAM. This test has been commenced before putting the final version of the software into the device, though – end results will certainly be much better.Samsung Galaxy S10 will be officially announced during Samsung’s special event on February 20th.

21st century religion, or how Pope endorses the ClickToPray app
Last Sunday, Pope Francis took time to publicly tout the ClickToPray mobile application. This marked probably the first time in the history where Pope spoke about electronics from the balcony over the St. Peter’s Square. ClickToPray, first released in 2016, allows its users to post what they are praying for at the moment. It also helps other people find those praying and pray along with them. The app even has a section where the pope himself will now be leaving monthly prayer guidance.The app is free, although some snarky souls out there believe that Vatican might try to cash in on ...
Skyrim multiplayer mod currently in beta
More than one modder have tried to bring multiplayer into the everpopular world of Skyrim, but it is the team working on Skyrim Together mod that got the closest to this goal. Currently, their mod is only available to a small number of Patreon contributors beta testers, but the plans are for it to soon be released to a wider audience. Reportedly, most of the game’s features are already working fine, or at least as intended: the mod is said to bring little in the way of adapting it to a co-op experience, which means that, for example, every player has their own separate journal and ...
Facebook LOL, or ha, ha, ha
It has been heard for some time now that young people are drifting away from Facebook. The youngsters these days prefer Twitch and Snapchat, reportedly, and they are also getting tired of FB’s near constant security and image fiascos. It must be true, since Mark Zuckerberg believes it; and he probably believes it, because otherwise he would not try to do something as silly as Facebook LOL. LOL is supposed to be a new feature of FB, which may or may not be a separate app. The goal of FB LOL will be to gather memes, both still images and gifs, for easy access from the main part of the ...
