Using a Motorola Atrix Lapdock to power a portable, VR-ready PC


Alright, this is just plain clever.


Building a gaming PC, especially something you wan to be VR-ready, is a fun challenge. You can try to make your kit as small and compact as possible so it doesn’t interfere with your play space, you can go all out and mount the whole thing in individual pieces on your wall, or you can go somewhere in between. Typically, being portable isn’t something you can actually pull off unless you want to sacrifice power and jack up costs by going with a VR-ready laptop.


Here’s a clever solution from one of our forum members that uses some surprisingly old tech with some cutting edge hardware to create something unique!

This adorable note left on a tree by a 7-year-old will warm your heart


LONDON — When you’re younger, spending “your own money” on something is a big deal.


We don’t know about you, but our pocket money typically went towards silly stuff like the latest Gameboy game (because ’90s kids) or things with noxious levels of sugar.


Something to make the world a better place and improve the beauty of our communities?


Uh…

Despite the second recall, you can buy the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 in Hong Kong


Just because the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 has been recalled twice, and Samsung has told owners of the phone never to turn it on again, there are some who are so taken with the phablet that they won’t part with it. Putting their lives and the lives of friends and family at risk, these people do not want to exchange their Galaxy Note 7 for another phone.


There are also those who are willing to risk an explosion and would buy a Galaxy Note 7 if only they could find one to buy. While it is illegal in the U.S. to sell the phone, in other countries there might not be any law preventing a retailer … – Source

'Walking Dead' boss admits he was trying to break you with the Season 7 premiere


This recap contains spoilers for The Walking Dead Season 7 premiere, titled “The Day Will Come When You Won’t Be.”


The devastating Walking Dead Season 7 premiere left two beloved characters with their skulls bashed in and Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) pledging his allegiance to a sadistic murderer with a baseball bat fetish, and the show’s producers are feeling pretty good about it all.


During this week’s Talking Dead aftershow, executive producer Scott Gimple admitted that their goal wasn’t just to break Rick Grimes in the premiere, but to break everyone watching at home, too.


“The hardest thing about it was, starting the script, what would break Rick? And then taking it further,” he explained. “It was all in the book, in issue 100, but [we were] looking for a way to break the audience too. Not in a way that is in any way to hurt them, but for them to believe that Rick Grimes would be under the thumb of Negan; that he would go through an experience that would do that to him; and that the audience would go through the experience too, so they would believe that Rick would do what this guy says.” …

Seattle cardiac patient has his life saved by a mobile app


Most of us have installed apps that play games, stream television shows, and pass along the news. For 60-year old Stephen DeMont, an app did something much more important; it saved his life. DeMont collapsed last week in front of a bus stop at the University of Washington Medical Center. Quickly, help arrived. A medical student gave DeMont chest compressions, and a nurse who just ended her shift at the hospital helped stabilize him until an ambulance arrived.


The nurse had been alerted to the situation by an app on her phone called PulsePoint. With the app, those who are trained … – Source
