When Chuck Norris does a push-up, he actually pushes the Earth down – this and many other facts about the world’s greatest action hero must have been on the mind of Flaregames, makers of Nonstop Chuck Norris. It is an action game in which the player takes the role of Chuck Norris’s sidekick, and together with the hero fight off bazillion bad guys. The game is free to play, with possible in-game transactions (well, duh), and is available on both Android and iOS.I have no idea whether the game is good or bad, but I know that its trailer is hilarious, as is always the case ...

Cobalt – security man (bot) of the future
”You don’t need security, just install a camera”. This line of thought seems to not only prevail, but even thrive. Cameras are fine, but security business goes a step further and wants to create an inteligent robot-guardsman. Cobalt Robotics works on a device called Cobalt (duh), an autonomous robot equipped with a variety of tools that allow him to identify people, items, ID cards, audio tracks, CO2 and smoke. Upon identifying a threat, Cobalt will send an alert and… and that is it, because I don’t see it coming with an electric baton to fend off a thief or ...
”1942” – classic scrolling shooter now available on mobiles
Capcom has plans to bring four of its old (okay, not old – pretty goddamn ancient) video games to mobile devices. The first one to roll in is 1942, an arcade shooter where the player takes the role of a bomber pilot fighting in the 8-bit World War II. The game is mostly a straightforward port, with the only enhancements being two game modes instead of one (casual for an easy experience and classic for the good old fashioned difficulty level), achievements and leaderboards.Sim-unlock.net is a system that offers unlocking sim locks of any phone model. We guarantee the lowest prices and ...
Citizen, a crime-alert phone application
Citizen is a renewed version of the old iOS-exclusive app Vigilante, now available for both Apple and Android operating system. Application’s feature is to provide a real-time alert of any crimes that appear in your living area. If available online, app adds a video footage to the alert, so that you can know what you’re runn… going away from when you’re going away from it. Sounds great, right? There is one catch – Citizen only works, for now at least, in New York. Making the app globally effective will be a difficult task, but I for one hope that it will happen ...

”This smartphone will self-destruct in three, two, one…”
A group of scientists from King Abdullah University of Science & Technology is working on a technology that allows for a remote or self-destruction of a smartphone. Their aim is to construct a special polymer that would be put inside the device. This polymer could then be triggered, by various means, to produce a large amount of heat. Heat would cause it to bloat, eventually causing the bulging mass to break the nearby phone chip. Scientists plan to create a number of triggers that could make the phone autodestruct. Among their ideas are; remote control, light detection (e.g., phone ...
Average US citizen spends 5 hours per day on their phone
According to analytics firm Flurry, U.S. smartphone users are spending average of five hours per day on their mobile devices, a whooping 20% more than they used to do by the beginning of 2016. Apps are what sees the biggest increase in use, with mobile browsers and even mobile games both seeing decline in use over the last few years. Research states that using apps is Americans’ favourite past time in the living room, beating the old veteran of potato couching, television – even if many of those apps are TV-esque devices in kind of Netflix or Amazon Video.I never felt bad about ...
Smart condoms, or o tempora o mores!
Every aspect of our lives (at least those of people living in the First World) is getting ”technologized”, so why not up our sex life to 2.0 as well. Apple’s i.Con Smart Condom is Apple’s answer to your need to have your apparatus wrapped in/rubbed by cybernetics. The device will monitor details of your sex life, such as duration of intercourse, number of thrusts made or calories burn, and relay this info to a special smartphone app. The device itself is not actually a condom, though, but a ring to be placed over an actual prophylactic. Good thing, too, ’cause ...

Sensor will also activate every camera within ten meters. This solution makes sure that, A>, the camera is on whenever a really serious situation is taking place, and B>, that the situation is filmed from as many angles as ...
Retiree died of heart attack after catching rare Pokemon
Well… everyone has to die from something… we have heard of people dying when playing video games, although most of these (very, very few) cases were due to sleep deprivation and other problems caused by playing non-stop for long periods of time (my record is 23 hours, but that’s nothing compared to some people). I do not think I have heard of anyone dying from excitment when playing video games, at least until now. 66 years old citizen of Marina Bay Sands was an avid Pokemon GO player. On that unfortunate day, he and his family was celebrating birthday of another family ...
