Klay Thompson deserves a gold medal in creepy photobombing

Photobombing should be an Olympic sport.

While basketball player Kevin Durant posed for a nice victory photo with swimmer and fellow Olympian Michael Phelps, both athletes were unaware that Durant’s US Olympic team mate, Klay Thompson was creepily hanging out in the background.

Poll: if one were to be released, would you give a Pokemon Go-like game a chance

Earlier today, we saw a report that mobile game developers are looking into the possibility of creating a Pokemon Go clone, but most reject the idea. According to many industry insiders, it’s a bit early to launch AR games and the success of Pokemon Go rides on the wave of the franchise it was built on.

Seeing as such a game requires a well-developed fantasy world that entices players to get off their couches and go out to “play”, competitors see no reason to invest the time and resources needed to build such a title. Many work to come up with ideas on what Pokemon Go is missing and what … – Source

Here's Donald Trump playing beach volleyball in total Donald Trump style

Donald Trump may be headed to the White House, but there’s one place he’s not going: Rio.

Old footage recently began to circulate showing the candidate aggressively playing beach volleyball. But because he’s Donald Trump, he doesn’t do it in shorts and a t-shirt. He does it in classic Trump style, wearing jeans, a polo shirt, and a belt.

Here’s a brief video of the incident, with the song “Playing With The Boys” by Kenny Loggins added.

Note 7 may be first with two ambient lights sensors for precise autobrightness settings

Samsung’s Galaxy Note 7 is no doubt stuffed to the gills with sensors, perhaps more than on any other phone, as it now includes an iris scanner and a sensor that lights up the display when you tilt the phone toward your eyes. It turns out that there might be even more than we thought, though, namely a second RGB sensor on the rear for ambient light measurement that returns faster and more precise auto brightness adjustments for the display.
The tip about that second ambient light sensor (ALS) is included in the Note 7 writeup by the screen calibration specialists from DisplayMate. … – Source

How to make your own geofilters on Snapchat

If you’ve used Snapchat then you’re probably familiar with the app’s geofilters, the illustrations you can overlay on top of your photos and videos.

Earlier this year, Snapchat expanded the ability to make these illustrations to all users with a feature that enables anyone to pay for custom geofilters. Unlike the app’s other location-based filters for neighborhoods or cities, which may stay at a specific location indefinitely, on-demand geofilters expire after a preset period of time.
