A relatively new Twitter account called @BF2042News has shared a number of images it claims to be from the upcoming Battlefield game. In one of the tweets, dated 4 June, a screenshot was shared which the account claims came from a play test from the day. A day later, the account shared three more, though one of it has a “pre-alpha footage” label on it. https://twitter.com/BF2042News/status/1400845931608690689 These images have also been put up on Imgur....

According to Ubisoft’s blog post, you’ll have to log into your Uplay account during the main show to get Watch Dogs 2 for free. The main event starts 3AM on 13 July, which is undoubtedly quite an inconvenient time to be awake. But depending on the value of the game to you, it could be worth it. There’s no telling if being AFK will still get you the game for now....

Over the past couple of years or so, studios have started to feature people of colour and women in leading roles in comic book movies. It’s about damn time! What’s great is that films like Wonder Woman, Black Panther and Captain Marvel have not only received favourable reviews but also done wonders at the box office. In an interview with Huffington Post, director of Avengers: Endgame, Joe Russo was asked if there’s now a possibility of seeing a superhero movie featuring a queer protagonist....

The controversy began two weeks ago when the messaging app effectively forced users to give it permission to share personal data with parent company Facebook. Since then, after facing intense criticism and user defections, it has scrambled to clarify what exactly their policy update entails. But the suspicion and anger against Whatsapp have been all too real for the company. In India, it hastily bought full-page ads in newspapers, declaring in large, bold letters that “WhatsApp respects and protects your privacy....

Along with the default setting, WhatsApp is implementing two new duration options — 24 hours and 90 days — alongside the existing seven-day timer. To enable it, go to Settings > Account > Privacy > Default message timer and choose the duration you’d like. Turning it on will only delete new messages, so messages previously sent with the feature disabled won’t be affected. As with before, Disappearing Messages can also be configured for each individual chat, with both users being able to turn the feature on and off, as well as both users being notified of any changes made....

News regarding the inclusion of the tool was first revealed via WABetaInfo. As to how it works, it’s pretty self-explanatory: should the sender accidentally press the “delete for me” instead of the “delete for everyone” button­ which is a horrifying thought­ tapping on the “undo” button that will show up next to the displayed “message deleted” bar. To be fair, this isn’t the first time the “Undo” feature has floated around WhatsApp’s purview....

Aside from adding new selections, the private messaging platform says that it is also making the default doodle wallpaper to be available in more colours. Moreover, it added that users will be provided with the ability to further enhance the chat background to their personal preference by dimming or brightening the images. The new update will also see several improvements done to the WhatsApp sticker search system, which will enable users to search and find stickers with text or emoji, or browse through common sticker categories....

At the moment, whenever someone leaves a group on WhatsApp, every member will be notified of their exit. With the upcoming iteration, only the group admin will receive a notification when a member leaves the group, allowing you to purge yourself without bringing any unwanted attention. While the feature was sighted in the desktop beta, WABetaInfo claimed that it should also be coming to beta users on iOS and Android in the future....

Tedros Adhanom, WHO Director-General, says that “we need an urgent reversal from the majority of vaccines going to high-income countries, to the majority going to low-income countries.” The moratorium would need to last at least two months until the end of September in order to meet the agency’s goal of vaccinating at least 10% of each country’s population. The WHO chief gave a reminder that G20 nations have a leadership role to play as they are the biggest producers, consumers, and donors of COVID-19 vaccines....

As you may have heard, choosing the wrong e-wallet service may have an impact on your freedom to utilise the ePemula credit according to your needs or preferences.

We’re here to make the choice easier by telling you all the reasons you should pick BigPay as your go-to e-wallet!

In an interview with BBC (via Indiewire), Scorsese talked about why he eventually passed on the project and if Joker falls under the ‘superhero’ genre. Before people start yelling at Scorsese again, he isn’t saying that superhero movies suck. He’s basically just saying it isn’t for him and it’s disappointing that the rise of the superhero genre has also caused films like The Irishman to not get a wide theatrical release....

This was actually mentioned in yesterday’s announcement which revealed the official launch date for the new operating system albeit very briefly. Microsoft generally said that the Android app support will be making its debut in the upcoming Windows Insider’s build within the next few months. Since its inception in 2014, Microsoft has released Windows Insider preview build as a platform to let users test out new features before rolling them out to a wider audience....

The revelation came courtesy of Twitter user Florian Beaubois, who showed a cutout of a screenshot with said ad to Microsoft Editor. It’s small enough that you could miss it, but at the same time, once you see it, you probably won’t be able to unsee it later. — Florian (@flobo09) March 12, 2022 In a statement to The Verge, Brandon LeBlanc, senior program manager for Windows, says that “this was an experimental banner that was not intended to be published externally and was turned off”....

In the final version we get to see in cinemas, the climax takes place on a train as the X-Men try and fend off dozens of shape-shifting aliens who are trying to get to Jean Grey. Later, Jean takes on and defeats the leader of the shape-shifters, sacrificing herself in the process. But in an interview with ReelBlend podcast (via SlashFilm), Tye Sheridan who plays Cyclops in Dark Phoenix reveals that the original ending of the film was actually much different....

So why let us sample it? That’s because the main highlight of the experience is not the Xiaomi 12S Ultra in its entirety, but rather its Leica-enhanced primary camera system. In other words, the brand is merely giving us a taste of what to expect from its future flagships that will eventually make their way to our shores. In hand, the feel of the Ultra variant is similar to any other smartphone of its class, such as the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra and its own predecessor, the Xiaomi 11 Ultra....

Flat display and camera layout notwithstanding, the newer model sports the familiar Xiaomi 12 series’ aesthetics – complete with the signature curves on the surrounding frames and rear panel. In fact, it is almost identical to the Xiaomi 12 Pro, especially in terms of size and weight. While I find no problem using the phone with just one hand in most regular situations, expect to use both when trying to reach certain buttons or icons due to the display’s large size....

This is because all of them are equipped with the equally new AMD Ryzen 4000 series processors. Available with either AMD Ryzen 7 4700U or Ryzen 5 4500U, among the major differences between them are the size of their screen. As per its name, the RedmiBook 16 comes with a 16.1-inch display while the RedmiBook 14 and RedmiBook 13 feature 14 and 13.3-inch display, respectively. All three display has a native resolution of Full HD, 178-degree viewing angle, and a maximum brightness of between 250 to 300nits depending on specific models....

Weighing 100g, the glasses run on a custom Snapdragon 8-based chipset from Qualcomm with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage. As for the display, Xiaomi collaborated with Sony to create a silicon-based OLED display in the form of a glass prism on the right side of the glasses, which differs from the original concept where the company said it would instead use MicroLED as it lasts longer. The display is claimed to have a peak brightness of 3000 nits, 1800 nits to the eye, a pixel density of 3281 PPI, and has German Rheinland hardware low blue light certification....

In general, the new Infinite+ is essentially just an extension of the Infinite plan. Subscribers of the Plus plan will be provided with unlimited access to 4G and 5G services just like the standard Infinite plan which also promises no Fair Usage Policy (FUP) restrictions. Similarly, the Infinite+ plan is divided into several tiers based on their hotspot quota. For example, Infinite+ Basic comes with 10GB of hotspot data while the quota for the Infinite+ Standard plan is 40GB....

Aside from having officers doing inspections at various locations throughout the country, the Ministry of Health (MoH) is also seeking assistance from members of the public to further increase the effectiveness of the ban. Among the way that they can lend their hands is by making a complaint directly to the MoH via WhatsApp. While the original tweet has somehow been removed just minutes after this article goes live, we have a copy of it right here:...
