Firmware 2.0: A temporary solution to use rest mode?



Last week, Sony published the highly anticipated update 2.0 which brought its share of new features… But also bugs.
Among the latter, that of rest mode has proven to be very disabling for certain players since their consoles simply find themselves blocked when they are turned back on. Sony acknowledged the problem and advised players to restart their PS4 in safe mode and rebuild the database. However, this “official” tip worked very little.

A user of Reddit, Wanderjahrhowever, seems to have found a solution: It would be enough to take a look in the (power management parameters), (define the functions available in rest mode), and choose to always power the USB ports.

Wanderjahr said he tested many other settings but this was the only one that gave him satisfactory results, and after half a dozen attempts, he no longer had any problems waking up from sleep. Other users of Reddit confirmed that they had successfully tested their method.

And you, will you test this unofficial solution or will you wait for an update from Sony to use rest mode?

Here are Lewis Hamilton’s tips for making a sports jersey chic



We keep writing it but Lewis Hamilton is still, to this day, the best dressed driver in F1. Last weekend, the Briton demonstrated it again very well during the Austrian F1 Grand Prix. Alternately sporting cutting-edge designers like Rick Owens or more popular streetwear brands, the pilot proves with each of his outings that he is an unconditional fashion fan. He also shows that he can masterfully grasp the latest cool trends of the moment, and even initiate new ones. Last Sunday, July 2, Lewis Hamilton made his entrance accompanied by his bulldog Roscoe in an outfit featuring a top that looked like a sports jersey.

With a few details, the piece could in fact have been confused with the emblematic t-shirt that appeared at the end of the 19th century.e century to equip athletes for the first Olympic Games. Lewis Hamilton’s version, inspired by the sports jersey like the flocking and sponsor patches that it in turn uses, is nevertheless intended to be worn off the track. The t-shirt comes from the collaboration between the F1 champion and Tommy Hilfiger, as revealed by the neckline which features the famous logo of the New York brand. Even if Lewis Hamilton cheats a little with this more casual variation, his look updates the trend which consists of wearing a sports jersey with a completely normal outfit. And Lewis Hamilton even found how to make the sports jersey (super) chic. We decipher the three lessons to remember to adopt the sports jersey on a daily basis.

Choosing stylish pants

Forget jogging pants and other sports pants. Since you are already wearing clothing from a sports wardrobe, the point here is to rebalance everything with a piece from a more casual or even elegant wardrobe. Like Lewis Hamilton, we advise you to opt for a version in light tones and straight in the style of pleated pants. Well-cut straight jeans can also do the trick.

Add a pair of trendy sneakers

As for shoes, light Salomon sneakers can work like those chosen by the British driver at the Austrian Grand Prix. Be careful, however, not to reproduce the pitfall of combining a pair that is too sportswear: once again the goal here is to counterbalance the excessive sportiness of the swimsuit and make the outfit more elegant. So favor trendy sneakers, compatible with more “fashionable” outfits. To be sure not to make a mistake, a pair of boots with a large sole otherwise remains your best ally.

Focus on accessories

Where Lewis Hamilton excels is obviously in the art of accessorizing. The English champion wears several silver necklaces tight around his neck, as well as rings, bracelets and a watch. Here accumulating jewelry is precisely what gives the look its chic aspect. All the more chic since Lewis Hamilton favors simple pieces, in silver, as opposed to bling-bling. Well-chosen sunglasses – with a simple frame – will finally punctuate your look very nicely.

Bad news: the iPhone 15 Pro could be even more expensive than its predecessors



Notice to Apple fans already dreaming of treating themselves to the iPhone 15, which is scheduled to be released during the month of September 2023: you will surely have to spend even more money to afford the brand’s precious smartphone with apple. And even if the exact date on which the iPhone 15 will finally be available to customers is not yet known, rumors are already going well concerning the design and the characteristics… but also the price of this new smartphone highly anticipated.

According to some sources, the iPhone 15 Pro should see its price explode. According to the SamaGame agency, the Cupertino company wants to continue to play the premium card by developing the “pro” range of the iPhone. The price of the iPhone 15 Pro could thus reach records. The iPhone 14 Pro as well as the 14 Pro Max had already undergone a significant price increase, since they were sold respectively at the price of 1329 euros and 1479 euros, while the iPhone 13 Pro and the 13 Pro Max displayed them selling prices of 1159 euros and 1259 euros. However, this increase was only visible in France, as sales prices in the United States did not change from one year to the next.

A record price for the iPhone 15 Pro… even in France?

Apple would have in mind to offer a premium offer truly detached from the basic offer. This high-end iPhone could therefore have even crazier technical capabilities and an even more advanced design. Certain new elements would thus justify the price increase. Among other things, we would find on this iPhone 15 Pro a titanium chassis, a lighter material but above all more expensive than the stainless steel present on old models, but also the installation of a periscopic telephoto lens.

This price change could also be explained by the increase in storage space from 128 GB to 256 GB for the entry-level models of the iPhone 15 Pro, but also by the integration of a 48 megapixel sensor , already present on the iPhone 14 Pro and 24 Pro Max and by the arrival of the Dynamic Island to replace the notch. Finally, these high-end models could also have a faster USB-C port and an A17 chip engraved in 3nm, compared to an A16 chip for the base iPhone 15.

However, you have to be careful about these rumors. Indeed, this price increase could only apply to the United States, since the European market has already experienced an increase in prices when the iPhone 14 was released, the euro having experienced a significant devaluation. The European Union currency has since almost regained its former value. So there’s only a month left to wait before we get the answer to this question.

The 11 ___iest Quartz Watches in the World



In recent years, the image of quartz watches (they were cheap and almost killed the watch industry) has been restored. Their main appeal is, and always has been, precision. Providing accurate time, down to the millisecond, is something that quartz watches can guarantee compared to automatic, mechanical and hand-wound models. Since luxury options have become available for sale, such as from Cartier, Grand Seiko and FP Journe (a brand dubbed by John Mayer, the new undisputed king of the Swiss independent scene), quartz watches are no longer stigmatized. Discover a selection of our favorite models below.

Bamford Mayfair

This fine 40mm Mayfair initially served as a loaner watch for buyers of George Bamford bespoke models, before becoming available in a popular range from the watchmaker. Among its wide variety of case and dial colors, we chose the tangerine shade. There is something for everyone and its black titanium index stands out deliciously against the summer colors. A jewel of Swiss engineering, the Mayfair offers timeless style for a few hundred euros. €763 on farfetch.com

Tissot Seastar 300m Diver

Tissot quickly became one of our favorites with the dressier PRX range. But its Seastar range offers more robust diving watches with a more assertive style, like this Seastar 1000 with many features. The 45.5mm case follows the trend of returning to large-case sports watches, within which is housed an imposing bright red dial. Equipped with a steel bracelet, a chronograph function and able to descend to a depth of 300 meters, this quartz watch can join your collection for €625. Available on tissotwatches.com

IKEPOD Chronopod Hey Joe

Inspired by the minimalist designs signed by Mark Newson in the 2000s, the Chronopod Hey Joe is unlike any other wristwatch (and that’s why we all dream of having one on our wrist). Housed in a round satin-finished steel bezel, two fine orange hands stand out from the dial. But the IKEPOD brand, a sure value among architects, does not just impose its minimalist and unique style. Its Japanese quartz powers a 44mm chronograph, installed on a silky-soft rubber strap. 790€ on ocarat.com

All playable characters in Fate Samurai Remnant


In FATE Samurai Remnant, players have a choice of players when it comes to character selection. Although you primarily control the main protagonist, there’s plenty of room to mix and match the new minions you recruit throughout the game. And if you want to take control of the Waxy Moon, you’ll need all the possible help. Some characters will allow you to take complete control, while others will simply assist you in combat. Anyway, let’s take a stroll around Edo Japan and take a look at all the playable characters in Fate Samurai Remnant.

All playable characters in Fate Samurai Remnant

In Fate Samurai Remnant, players will need to perform a Hair Removal Moon Ritual in order to control the other servants. Servants serve as a way to further develop your power and can be exchanged at any time once you have unlocked them. Including the main character, there are a total of 12 playable characters, each bringing its own advantages and disadvantages. So without further ado, here are all the playable characters in Fate Samurai Remnant:

  • Iori Miyamoto
  • Saber
  • Archer
  • Lancer
  • Assassin
  • Berserker
  • Red Saber
  • Red Archer
  • Red Throw
  • rogue spellcaster
  • Rogue Assassin
  • Thief Berserker
  • Rogue Rider (support only)

Related: List of free games from the Epic Games Store

If you’re familiar with the series, these names should stick out to you. And as we stated above, some characters like Rogue Rider can only be used as support. Additionally, even though they are not fully controllable, the possibility of having them help you in the field is still there. Additionally, players will unlock more characters as they progress through the game. So if you’re not feeling the support you have, there should be a new one to unlock around the corner. It’s also worth mentioning that while you’ll control Iori for the majority of the game, other characters may later be the main person you control in a battle.

New EA FC 24 icons: leaks show more icons coming to FIFA…


EA will be releasing new icons in EA FC 24. Along with a revamped icon chemistry system, we’ll see the first-ever female icons and new legendary names for males. While the latest leaks suggest that the long-awaited Arjen Robben won’t make an appearance in the new FIFA 24, there’s a silver lining: another brand new icon will be joining the roster.

EA Sports is making a change. Instead of FIFA 24, we will buy EA Sports FC 24 this season. With the new name of the football simulation, many new features and other innovations can be expected. The biggest change is the inclusion of women in Ultimate Team. Developers are taking new paths – we look forward to it!

The first female icon in FUT history has already been confirmed by EA with Mia Hamm as seen on the cover of the Ultimate Edition. She retired in 2004, scored 158 goals in 276 games for the United States and will certainly be playable. As a petite (5’5″), nimble, and strong finisher and dribbler, she could fit right into the EA FC 24 meta.

EA 24 New Icons Confirmed – Leaks Reveal More FIFA 24 Icons

EA has already confirmed new icons in the form of special cards for women. The most exciting part, however, are the new icons that have yet to be revealed.

According to a well-known leaker, there are only four new female icons in total – but we expect more to come as the male icon lineup includes over 100 players.

Abily, Prinz and Smith are coming too!

Mia Hamm won’t be the only female icon!

Alongside Birgit Prinz, Camille Abily, Kelly Smith, A new leak announces Homare Sawa!

She is considered by many to be one of the greatest footballers of all time and the greatest Asian footballer of all time.

FUT Sheriff, a reputable source on Twitter(x), has released a list of likely candidates for new Icons in EA FC 24. According to this insider information, Franck Ribery, Zico and Sir Bobby Charlton are already considered confirmed additions.

Ribéry arrives as an ICON in EA FC

It should be crazy

Be sure to follow @FootSheriff And @Criminal__x !#eafc #eafcleaks pic.twitter.com/PXdBHETDZt

— Fut Sheriff (@FutSheriff) July 12, 2023

As for the final EA FC 24 male icon, the candidates seem to be Arjen Robben, Sergio Agüero or Michel Platini. While we’d love to see all three, this latest leak is particularly disappointing as it seems to confirm that Arjen Robben’s inclusion will take place in at least a year.

EA only introduced three new icons in FIFA 23 with Gerd Müller, Xabi Alonso and Jairzinho, so we will only be able to get three new icons in EA FC 24.

And again… Confirmed no Arjen Robben on EA FC

It could be so huge…

Maybe on EA FC 25?#eafc24 pic.twitter.com/Xo3ZcOH03h

— Fut Sheriff (@FutSheriff) September 5, 2023

EA Confirms New Icon Chemistry System, Removes Icon Versions

Moreover, EA has confirmed that Icons will provide more chemistry than in FIFA 23 which just makes sense because their link wasn’t particularly well done to be honest.

Another big surprise was the removal of different versions of Icon. We will see only one base version for each icon, and upgrades will come with promotions and events to Ultimate Team – like TOTY icons or FIFA 23 Shapeshifter icons.

We also remember the case of Diego Maradona, whose rights were disputed for a long time after his death. Eventually, EA was forced to remove Maradona from the game.

The transfer of rights for Zico was apparently also in limbo for a long time, but it looks like a deal has been struck. So, in EA Sports FC, you will probably be able to play with the “White Pelé”.

We hope that another exceptional Brazilian player will enrich our teams. To ensure you have the best start in the new game, we also show you how to get early access to EA FC 24!

Zico is one of the new Star Heads on #EAFC

should be good

Be sure to follow @FootSheriff & @Criminal__x !#EAFC pic.twitter.com/ycw4gRFTpW

All icons in EA FC 24: 100+ icons

Last season, EA removed a few icons, removing a total of eight. The mentioned Maradona due to rights issues, as well as Deco, Ryan Giggs, Pep Guardiola and Fillippo Inzaghi. However, it is different for Hidetoshi Nakata And Jay-Jay Okocha, as they are still in the game but have been downgraded to FUT Heroes.

Marc Overmars, on the other hand, managed to destroy his legendary status on his own. The former Ajax star was kicked out of the club for ___ual assault – and was previously sent off in FIFA 22, then doesn’t appear in the FIFA 23 roster (rightly so).

We expect EA to remove a few icons again in EA FC24 – if only to avoid having too many in the packs. Not that we all only play with icons… But just to keep the list from getting too long, you know?

However, assuming that women will also receive icons and that we will play with mixed teams in FUT, we are confident that the 100 mark will be exceeded again.

If you want to check out all the icons, you can best do so at futbin.com.

Baldur’s Gate 3: Top 5 Mercenaries


Need the help of Mercenaries in Baldur’s Gate 3, but don’t know which one to choose? This guide will help you make the right decision!

When you start out in Baldur’s Gate 3, you can find several original characters who can join your party. But since some of them may end up leaving you entirely (), it’s wise to have a plan B.

So it just so happens that the NPC Withers also offers another completely different option. If you pay a small price of 100 gold (), you can recruit the help of a mercenary.

!

Baldur’s Gate 3: Top 5 Mercenaries

There is a mercenary for each class in Baldur’s Gate 3, and so they are by far the best at recruiting you!

5. Maddala Deadeye – Thief

Having a Rogue on your team is essential, especially if your playstyle is stealth, you want to rob as many people as possible and open all the chests without a hitch. –!

Since Astarion is the thief of the team and a rather unique individual with a demanding attitude, some might get upset very quickly. If you’ve had enough just swap it with Maddalaand you are good to go.

4. Elder Luther – Barbarian

Eldra is a barbarian, similar to Karlach and a tank and a damage dealer at the same time. If you missed her in your playthrough or don’t like having her in your party at all, you can just choose Eldra and you’ll be fine.

He can resist any horrible attack and concentrate the attack of the enemy force on himself. Your ranged fighters will be happy to have this little dwarf by their side, as they tend to be glass cannons.

3. Danton – Druid

To me, it seems like the Druids are the underdogs of Baldur’s Gate 3. But don’t you dare underestimate them! They can literally neutralize an entire boss fight in the blink of an eye!

Halsin being a companion joining your ranks at the end of Act 1 (), getting Danton early in your party is a wonderful decision!

You can have a a lot of versatility during fights, with different support, defense and healing spells. But taking the form of an Owlbear, enlarging it and using “Crushing Flight” is the best thing you can do!

2. Zenith Feur’sel – Cleric

Actually, position 1 and 2 are both the best mercenaries you can choose Since. The only thing that brings Zenith to take second place is the fact that there is a counterpart in the original characters who is also a cleric.

If Shadowheart leaves you, Zenith is here for a long time. He is a cleric of the realm of light, which means it is excellent for both support and healing. If you’re having trouble staying healthy in future battles, having a Life Domain Cleric would be even more beneficial.

And let me say this: !

1. Burn Brightsong – Bard

Bard is one of the few classes that does not have a connected companion. Make Brinna a valuable asset and giving it the title “Best Hireling”. With she is good at almost everythingBrinna is your secret weapon and takes on the supporting role.

With her high Charisma, Dexterity, Constitution, and Intelligence stats, she can pull off almost anything and give you plenty of options while talking to others. Perfect for anyone who likes to focus on conversations and have every action possible at their fingertips.

Casting for The Witcher’s Most Beautiful Character is…


The casting director of Netflix’s The Witcher series recently revealed that their casting of Yennefer of Vengerberg is meant to ‘defy’ beauty standards.

The Witcher on Netflix features some of the finest cast members of any series to ever grace the Netflix library. Let’s be honest, Henry Cavill alone would have been enough to make this claim true, and there’s also Anya Chalotra, Freya Allan, and many more. So how come the show’s casting director revealed that one of them is supposed to “defy” beauty standards.

In an interview with Variety, The Witcher casting director revealed that Vengerberg’s Yennefer casting was intended. It’s unclear how a beautiful woman like Anya Chalotra changes anyone’s opinion of beauty, but we’ll see.

The Witcher Casting Director Explains Why Anya Chalotra Was Cast

We all know that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but there are obviously still beauty standards that permeate society. The epitome of objective beauty in The Witcher is supposed to be Yennefer of Vengerberg.

The casting director of the Netflix adaptation of The Witcher decided to take this opportunity to cast an Indian woman to embody this ideal of beauty.

I remember saying, “I think we need to challenge what people consider the standard of beauty.” And having a woman of color in that role does some incredibly powerful things for people watching.

This casting choice is supposed to challenge.

Having the embodiment of beauty in The Witcher represented by a woman of color sends a powerful message to other people of color. Although we’re not 100% convinced that this role really defies beauty standards; Anya Chalotra is conventionally beautiful.

EA Sports FC 24 is under development for both old and next generation. But what are the differences between the PS4 and PS5 versions? Is the expensive upgrade to the next generation worth it? We explain it to you!

The separation between EA Sports and FIFA is official. The successor to FIFA 23 is called “FC 24” or “Electronic Arts Sports Football Club Twenty-Four”, as they say here at the office of SamaGame.com. However, aside from the name and a few minor innovations, the game remains largely the same.

Where there are sometimes significant differences is between different console generations and platforms. We will explain if upgrading from PlayStation 4 to PlayStation 5 is worth it.

The differences between the PS4 and PS5 versions of EA FC 24

The most obvious difference is the console. The PS4 is far from having the capabilities of the PS5, which can implement completely different technologies. And you can notice it directly in the game.

However, what you also notice is the significant price difference between the consoles. If you only play a few hours a month, you don’t have to buy a PS5.

There is no longer a shortage, and the PS5 is available everywhere, for example at Amazon.

EA FC 24 on PS4

EA FC 24 will be available for the PS4. You can purchase or pre-order the standard or ultimate edition. The pre-order bonuses are also the same as for the PS5. The standard edition will be priced at $79.99, making the PS4 version the same price as the PS5 version.

However, PS4 owners also have to do without a few things. This was already the case in FIFA 23, and we were very disappointed with EA. The game stuttered, sometimes froze, and was generally extremely slow.

Building a casual dream team in Ultimate Team unfortunately wasn’t fun at all as navigating the menus felt like FIFA 09 at times. It was definitely different on the PlayStation 5 as the menu worked fine and the wait times were boundaries.

How much this will improve for EA FC 24 remains to be seen. However, you can expect EA to prioritize allocating its resources to developing next-gen games, because that’s quite simply the future.

In a few years, the majority of gamers will own a PS5, and developers will no longer prioritize PS4 gamer satisfaction.

The FIFA 23 gameplay on the PS4 version was decent, although it couldn’t compare to the PS5 gameplay at all. However, we do not know what new technological features are supposed to be used for EA FC 24 (in terms of resources).

So EA will try to sell you a refurbished EA FC 24 for the PS4, even though there will be virtually no gameplay changes.

.

EA FC 24 on PS5

The PS5 is the console of the future, integrating various new technologies like Hypermotion. The gameplay is completely different as the old PS4 cannot implement features like AcceleRATE.

Features such as AcceleRATE or the latest Hypermotion animations provide a more realistic yet refreshing gaming experience.

In general, the PS5 has much faster load times, it’s not noisy, and the game just looks so much better.

PS5 is connected via cross-play with Xbox Series X/S and PC, giving you more options to connect with friends.

The PS5 is obviously superior to the PS4 in every aspect. It would be sad if Sony released a console upgrade with no noticeable differences.

However, you notice the high price… It’s different.

EA FC 24: comparison PS4 and PS5

Now for the ultimate EA FC 24 comparison between PS4 and PS5:

FC24 EA Features
PS4 PS5
all game modes

fast loading times

good gameplay

cross play ✅ (XboxOne) ✅ (Xbox Series X/S, PC)
hypermovement
Accelerate
Early Access

standard edition price

$79.99 $79.99
ultimate edition price $109.99 $109.99
console price approximately. $300 approximately. $550

Prices are dynamic and may change at any time, and the price may also vary from supplier to supplier. However, the consoles are in this price range. Prices shown are for the “regular” PS4 (not the Pro version) and PS5 with drive.

But did you expect the PS4 to cost another $300? Pretty expensive for a console that’s been around for a decade… Then the $550 for a PS5 doesn’t seem that expensive.

By the way, PS4 and PS5 have the same FUT transfer market. However, if you want to snipe a player on the PS4, you have a downside due to loading times.

So which version is the best? Our answer is quite clear: PlayStation 5. Even though the game and console are slightly more expensive, the extra cost is worth it for better gameplay and faster load times.

  1. ´13 Heat Manual – While this is certainly one of the most popular NBA 2K23 MyTeam playbooks, it needs to be executed perfectly to be effective.

  4. Bulls ´96 playbook – For those who prefer to run isolated or post-up plays, look no further than the ’96 Bulls Playbook. Some of the games highlighted here focus heavily on pick-and-roll offenses, as opposed to other scoring opportunities. However, if you have a strong post presence and playmakers along the wing, then this playbook is filled with plays that are nearly unstoppable. Especially if you have Hall-of-Fame Bulls players from that era (Jordan, Pippen, Rodman, etc.).
  5. Warriors Playbook – Finally, we have the only current NBA playbook, the Gold Warriors Playbook. Packed with 47 unique and diverse pieces, this playbook offers great flexibility depending on playstyle. Although, as you’d expect, it’s all about opening up your three-point shooter and knocking down all three at a high level. . This means that if you have a sniper like Steph Curry, this is the best playbook to use.

Media: Bloober Team has been working on a game about Alien in a medieval setting


Polish studio Bloober Team (Layers of Fear, The Medium and possibly the new Silent Hill) once worked on an alien game set in the Middle Ages. This was announced by the publication Gamepressure.

The project was first announced in July 2021. At the time, the game was codenamed Black, details of which were revealed in the documents the studio submitted to participate in the European Union-funded Creative Europe program.

Black was designed as a first-person action game with a focus on exploration, survival and close combat. The game was a story, and the hero had to make difficult moral decisions. One of the features should be a mysterious race of aliens that act as opponents.

Gamepressure claims that it was about xenomorphs. According to the plot, a certain group of cultists worshiped the monster, but at some point it broke out and killed the fanatics.

The developers had an unusual idea for presenting the game. At first they wanted to present her to the public as survivors in a medieval setting and tell about a secret cult and a certain deity. It was only after a few trailers that it became clear that the deity was the Xenomorph itself.

A few years ago, the project was reportedly brought to market by 20th Century Fox, who owned the rights to Alien at the time, and Ridley Scott himself. The idea was met with great enthusiasm, but in March 2019, the rights to the franchise passed into the hands of Disney and the project was completed.

Unfortunately, nothing is known about the current status of the game. In July 2021, Bloober Team CMO Tomasz Gawlikowski stated that the project’s concept had changed significantly.

As the newspaper notes, the idea of ​​moving the alien to a different time period is not new. For example, in 1998, Dark Horse Comics published the comic Aliens: Stalker, in which the Vikings fought back against the Xenomorph.

  • A new Alien film and TV series are being prepared – they will not be connected to the previous films
  • A new trailer for the action/RPG Dolmen has been released, which looks like a mix between Dark Souls and Alien
  • There are new details about the Alien series that will reimagine the franchise

Digimon World Next Order Best Training Spots

Digimon World Next is now available for purchase on Nintendo Switch and PC. The object of the game is to acquire as many Digimon as possible and develop them to be as powerful as possible. Players may find themselves doing a lot of grinding as a result of this. A player’s Digimon can be trained in various locations in the game environment. With each Digimon having a lifespan, you may want to focus on particular stats, so farming in specific locations is key. Here is a list of our top training sites in Digimon World Next Order.

Best training places

Training against Digimon rather than at the Gym is often better for increasing your companions’ stats in Digimon World Next. The best practice spots are where you can move quickly and where opponents are close to zone exits so you can quickly reset opponents.

  • Black Gabumon, Goburimon – Located in the Nigh Plains (Power Plant #2), these digimon are excellent for Rookie Digimon training. They will provide you with targeted training to improve your STR, STA, and SPE stats.
  • WarGrowlmon – For a player who is near the East Coast or Control Island in Faulty Ex Machine, the WarGrowlmon is a great choice of enemy to train on. It is good for Champion Digimon level training.
  • piddomon – This Digimon can be farmed at night, at the Logic Volcano near the front door. Piddomon is useful for training Rookie and Champion Digimon as well as WIS and SPE stats.
  • seadramon – This digimon can be found on the MOD cloak and is useful for training Digimon beginners and champions. They will increase your STR, STA, WIS, and SPE stats. Before training here, you must have at least 2,000 overall stats.

Dimensional Dungeons fill this gap and are unlocked post-game by recruiting a Digimon. The majority of dungeon bosses grant +24 to each stat.

Find your own best training spot

There are different places to farm specific stats, so it’s best to find one that gives the stats you desire for your current training path. As stated above, the best places to farm are where it’s easy to both spot digimon and easily reset them by accessing an exit to the area and back. If you find yourself stuck, find a good place to do these things and you’ll find one of your best training spots in Digimon World Next Order.

Palia laying the foundation on the Switch

A few days ago the MMO Palia was also released for the Nintendo Switch and, as expected, the game is enjoying great popularity there. Anyone who has recently plunged into the adventure of Palia and has already completed one or two quests may ask themselves the question, how can you actually lay the foundation? As part of the first quests, you have to tidy up your own property and remove trees, stones and other junk. This is followed by the construction of the workbench, the first tent and later the first house. You have to lay a foundation for the house, but how does that actually work?

Palia: Building Foundations on the Nintendo Switch

In order to build a foundation for a Palia on the Switch, you must of course first move to the property (if you haven’t already done so) and walk into the construction area. Once there, you can now open the “property menu” and use it to build the foundation, but you can also do other things later, such as expanding the property. The property menu can be opened on the Switch using the L3 button, i.e. press the left analog stick of the Joy-Con or Pro controller once.

  1. Go to the property and open the property menu by pressing the left analog stick.
  2. In the bird’s eye view you now have a good overview of the property, you have to press the X key again and you can then select the property elements on the left, which also include the house foundation.
  3. Select the foundation and place it in a free area on the property.

By the way, a permit is required to expand the property in Palia. You can buy the permit from Kenyatte, who can be found in the City Hall. The same applies to house extensions and manufacturing licenses, which are also sold at the town hall. The permits require reputation and the other licenses and challenges can be purchased with normal gold.

Cities Skylines 2: Build and remove zebra crossings


In the new Cities Skylines 2, the player once again has numerous tools and options at his disposal with which he can better control traffic on the streets and guide it through the city. There are various streets with several lanes, from simple streets to expressways to gravel paths, but also one-way streets, signs and traffic lights. In addition to car traffic, in Cities Skylines 2 you can also control pedestrian traffic with a zebra crossing so that pedestrians can safely cross a busy city street. In this short guide we show where to find the pedestrian crossing and how to remove the zebra crossing again.

Build a pedestrian crossing

The zebra crossing, like the traffic lights or the signs on the streets, can be found under the “Road Services” tab. The zebra crossing or pedestrian crossing allows pedestrians to cross a street safely. For additional safety and better traffic flow, the pedestrian crossing can also be combined with a traffic light. The zebra crossing costs $375 per kilometer and can be placed on both single-lane roads and multi-lane roads. If you want to connect the zebra crossing with a traffic light, then you have to select the traffic light under “Roads” and “Road Services” in construction mode and then click on the zebra crossing.

Remove zebra crossings

If you have placed a few pedestrian crossings on the streets and it turns out that they cause too much traffic jam or are not used that often by pedestrians, then the question arises, how can you remove the zebra crossing again? To remove the pedestrian crossing, you have to use the “Replace” tool in Cities Skylines 2. So select the zebra crossing in construction mode and then simply right-click on the respective street with the zebra crossing. You can also use the same method to remove the signs or traffic lights in Cities Skylines 2.

Tip: This is how you can change the direction of travel on the one-way street in Cities Skylines 2.

The founder of Steam asked for his account to be hacked. 13 years later, no one has been able to, and their access codes are known.

Steam is a platform known worldwide for giving us the option to buy thousands of games to run on our Windows, macOS or even Linux computers. Its founder, Gabe Newell, issued a great challenge to all people who had knowledge in computing: that They will try to hack your own Steam account to find out what he had in his library.

13 years after this challenge, Gabe Newell’s account remains a big mystery for all those people who dream of watching what a figure as iconic as this one plays. But Gabe even provided the necessary facilities to access Steam: his username and password were completely public.

Gabe Newell trusts Steam Guard with tests in hand

The rest is simple. Gabe’s username is [email protected] and the password is MoolyFTW, as he himself made public at CeBIT in 2011. With this data he was asked to try to hack his Steam account, something that a priori is really simple. The only condition was that no one could access your corporate email associated with Steam.

But although it may seem very simple, this challenge was launched along with the ‘obstacle’ that exists to achieve it, that is Steam Guard. The two-step authentication system promised to make the platform much more secure, and that is why the company’s founder placed all his trust in the system he had presented. With this activated, this challenge of hacking it was launched. Something that has been complicated.

Thirteen years have passed and no unauthorized access to this Steam account has been reported, making Steam Guard have proven to work really well. The only problem it has (and that Newell recognized) resides in the associated email accounts. And by being able to access them, you will be able to bypass Steam’s security system. Although this is something that happens indirectly.

Obviously, security systems have been increasing since 2011 with the inclusion of the two-factor authentication system or the configuration of external trusted devices such as a mobile phone. But this has not caused confidence in Guard to be withdrawn by having the challenge active and as a reward knowing the inside of this account that right now remains completely private. Whether anyone will be able to achieve it in the coming years is a mystery, but without a doubt whoever achieves it will be a great milestone in the world of the internet.
