Smartphones do produce a lot of environmental waste. And there are very few brands that try to minimize this waste. Fairphone is a social media enterprise company that develops smartphones that have a minimal environmental impact. Fortunately, two devices from this company, i.e. the Fairphone 3 and Fairphone 3+ is receiving the Android 10 update. Well, it might sound a bit weird because just recently, Google released the Android 11 update....

FF8 Remastered is introducing a whole new generation of players to GFs (and their locations and abilities), just an example of innovative but misunderstood features in one of the most underappreciated games in franchise history. The GF system is extremely divisive among fans, with opinions ranging wildly between assertions it’s one of the best or worst summon mechanics in Final Fantasy. A design that allows players to accidentally miss some of the most powerful summons in the game is sure to invite some less-than-favorable feedback....

FF8 Triple Triad is one of the series’ best mini-games, featuring rare cards, diverse mechanics, and main story relevance. Few of the mini-games integrated into a Final Fantasy’s core experience have as significant an impact on gameplay as Triple Triad does - it can easily be manipulated from the beginning of the game to give players access to extremely powerful abilities, items, and cards that will make winning rarer ones later in the game much easier....

FF8 Weapons Monthly locations are some of the most important pieces of information available in the entire game, yet, as with many of its other features, it’s not something that’s communicated to the player very clearly from the beginning. For those unfamiliar with how magazines work in FF8, the various flavors all have a different effect on content the players gain access to - with Occult Fan, players get information on the UFO?...

Based on the new information, it’s possible Apple could be planning to open orders for the new iPhone as soon as tomorrow; the information definitely tells us that Apple is ready to start accepting orders very soon. 2020 iPhone SE Apple’s marketing names are perhaps the most protected component of new iPhones, so we’ve used two nicknames to reference the rumored iPhone 8 replacement so far: iPhone SE 2 and iPhone 9....

Actor Vin Diesel has been portraying the role of Dominic Toretto for nearly two decades in the Fast & Furious franchise, a milestone considering he wasn’t even the studios’ top choice. The franchise, recently retitled as The Fast Saga, is gearing up to release its ninth installment, F9, later this year which will feature Diesel once again reprising the part of Dom for another adrenaline-pumping chapter. Here’s who declined the role of Dom twenty years ago and why Diesel was the man for role....

The Fast & Furious franchise is building up to a new movie every year - but as Disney’s proven with Star Wars, that’s not a great idea. In the years since the original Fast and the Furious hit theaters in 2001, the franchise has grown by leaps and bounds in popularity and scale. The last two installments made well over $1 billion at the global box office apiece, and the series at large has grossed more than $5 billion over the course of eight films....

After the FBI refused to reveal details of who helped it to access the work iPhone in the San Bernardino shooting case despite Freedom of Information Act requests, three news organizations filed a lawsuit demanding access to the information. The agency has now responded with 100 pages of documents, but has censored the key facts, reports CNET. The documents do reveal that three companies bid for the contract, and the unsurprising fact that the company which actually performed the work isn’t able to say so thanks to signing a non-disclosure agreement....

Who hasn’t dreamed of going up to the sky and touching the clouds? In 1962, James Glaisher and his pilot, Henry Coxwell, went up to a record-setting 36,000 feet. The journey undertaken by these scientists is dramatized in the new film, The Aeronauts. Directed by Tom Harper, The Aeronauts stars Eddie Redmayne as Glaisher and Felicity Jones as a fictional character, Amelia Wren, who is based on a composite of several real-life balloonists, including Sophie Blanchard and Coxwell himself....

Antitrust regulators in Europe have fined Facebook €110 ($122M) for misleading them over its acquisition of the secure messaging service WhatsApp. The European Commission said that the fine would have been more than twice as high but for Facebook’s acknowledgement of wrong-doing and cooperation with the investigation … Reuters reports that Facebook had claimed it had no way to automatically link WhatsApp accounts with those on its own platform, but this wasn’t true....

Now, let’s take a look at the main features of the platform....

A great collection of third-party apps is one of the stickiest parts of using the iPhone for me. Even apps that have versions for both iOS and Android are generally better on the iPhone to me. There’s still an opportunity for Apple to let you do more with those great third-party apps, however, like replacing stock apps and making them easier to launch… This is one area where the Mac is just more mature than iOS....

Read on to find out what to do if your Facebook account has been hacked or you’re locked out....
