From 277 sites during the beta phase, the amount of Digi WiFi hotspot has now grown to more than 7,000 location in both West and East Malaysia. In case you wondering, yes, Digi is still collaborating with TM in order to deliver this service. Similarly, Digi WiFi is currently still exclusive to Digi customers. In conjunction with the launch of the pass, Digi is offering the pass at a much lower price until the end of this month:...

Microsoft had reportedly sought to acquire Discord for at least US$10 billion (~RM41.16 billion). But it wasn’t the only one. Discord talked to at least three companies about a possible acquisition, according to a Wall Street Journal (WSJ) report which broke the news on Discord’s decision. Discord could possibly revive acquisition talks with Microsoft later, but the company is choosing independence for the time being. While still unprofitable, Discord nearly tripled its revenue from 2019 to 2020 – from nearly US$45 million (~RM185....

As of this writing, five of those films have grossed $US 1 billion and more, one of which — Avengers: Endgame — grossed more than $US 2 billion and is currently the highest-grossing film of all time. Frozen 2 will also join the coveted $US 1 billion club, probably by the end of the week. These are absolutely monstrous numbers that frankly just boggles the mind of a peasant like myself....

In a set of images shared by the leakster, the DJI Osmo Mobile 5 is shown to feature a slanted grip like the older models, but with its control interface integrated seamlessly on the handle. In regards to the latter, the controls still consist of a thumbstick and two buttons. Quandt says that when folded, the new device measures at around 6.7 inches. As mentioned earlier, new to this model is the retractable gimbal mount which could be extended for taking wider selfies, or for shooting at certain angles....

It’s interesting to see a cryptocurrency that was created as a joke to the initial wave so many years ago, take centre stage amongst the digital assets. At its launch, Dogecoin’s value was worth significantly less than a US cent; fast forward to January this year, the coin’s value was listed at US$0.0075 (~RM0.031). While that was still just a fraction of a US cent, it was still a significant rise in value for the coin....

To enable the feature, users on a OnePlus device need to open up their Bluetooth settings, tap on their OnePlus Buds Pro, go into the Earbud functions, and enable Dual Connection. Those using non-OnePlus devices will have to use the HeyMelody app to turn it on instead. Through the Dual Connection feature, you will be able to listen to content on one device while still being able to receive calls and notifications on another connected device....

EA CEO Andrew Wilson says that the acquisition of Glu Mobile doubles its own the size of its mobile business. Which is a pretty huge deal, since the company claims it currently has over 100 million monthly active players in the mobile space. If the name Glu Mobile is unfamiliar to you, you may be familiar instead with the games that it makes. Among them are the likes of Kim Kardashian: Hollywood, Restaurant Dash with Gordon Ramsay and MLB Tap Sports Baseball, among others....

Wilson also said that the upcoming title will also feature maps on an “unprecedented scale”, along with support for more players. We already know from initial rumours that EA plans on making BF6 maps bigger, with the ability to accommodate up to 128 players in a single map; double the current 64 player cap that all current Battlefields are able to support. As to when exactly BF6 will be launching, Wilson simply told investors that his company plans on launching the game sometime during the holiday season of 2021....

When Belgium declared that loot boxes were gambling, most publishers begrudgingly pulled versions of it from their games. This includes the likes of Valve with Counter-Strike Global Offensive and Dota 2, and Take-Two with the NBA 2K series. EA, on the other hand, decided to go the legal battle route to defend its FIFA Ultimate Team game mode’s revenue stream. According to GamesIndustry.biz, EA has confirmed that it will stop selling the premium currency of its FIFA licensed games, FIFA Points in Belgium....

Its description reads just about the same as any other game in the series. You get a large selection of weapons, and a sprinkling of vehicles, to make use of. There also looks to be four classes to choose from in Battlefield Mobile: Assault, Recon, Medic and Support, all four being staples of the series. There is also mention of heroes with “unique narratives”, which is similar to the main draw of Battlefield 2042....

According to the publisher’s press release, the full name of the game will be The Lord of the Rings: Heroes of Middle-earth. As you’d expect, this will be a free-to-play mobile title which EA describes as a Collectible RPG. Which is probably an indication as to the method the publisher will monetise the game. Cementing this further is the line “includes in-game purceases (including random items)”, which is an EA signature move....

Ismaniza said that while work is only eight hours a day, workers actually lose a couple of hours during their commute. This leads to many employees having to wake up and leave very early in an attempt to avoid getting stuck in traffic jams. [Photo: S.S. Kanesan/The Star]The issue is not just one that plagues workers’ personal lives, but one that also affects productivity costs. The lecturer estimates that when factoring the average hourly wage of RM7, two hours a day multiplied by 22 working days results in RM308 of wasted productivity every month....

While we’re confident that both movies will deliver the goods as far as quality is concerned, one of the biggest question on everybody’s mind is: which one of these movies will do better at the global box office? Below, we breakdown the facts and figures, taking into account their previous box office returns, cultural significance and past receptions. One film each, in the top 5 of the global box office....

If that was the question that popped up in your mind a few weeks ago when the news of this phone made its way through the pipeline, let me assure you that the 18000mAh Energizer Power Max P18K Pop is as real as it can be. Some of our readers have guessed at that time that the phone would be quite thick and it turns out that they are right indeed....

In terms of design, the front profile of the SE variant almost looks no different from its siblings; complete with a curved display that comes with a top-centered cutout for its selfie camera. Meanwhile, its rear profile differs greatly from the standard and Pro models, especially for its camera array. Instead, the Honor 60 SE features a triple camera arrangement that unmistakably resembles the one found on current generation iPhones....

Even though order placement page on EGS only showed Maybank2U logo, customers can actually use other local online banking platforms as well to pay for their games including RHB Now, CIMB Clicks, and many more. You can choose your preferred online banking platform on the Xsolla’s payment page, as per our screenshot here: Meanwhile, do note the bank transfer payment method is meant for one-time payment only. In other words, you can’t directly add your favourite bank into your EGS account as the default payment method which is a good thing if you find yourself prone to purchase things by impulse....

In a statement released earlier today, ERL again notes that both KLIA train lines will continue to be operated as a combined service – an implementation the company had decided upon since the reinstatement of KLIA Ekspres and KLIA Transit in September of last year, amidst the movement restriction order that was still in place. The company is hoping to resume full operations for both lines during the fourth quarter of this year, with service frequency and operation hours reverting back to their pre-pandemic practices....

For those who not familiar with the technology, it was designed to deliver gigabit speed in a more cost-effective way than fibre network. The implementation of the technology is apparently less intrusive than fibre as well which is why Terragraph was deemed suitable to be put to test at Georgetown, Penang; itself a UNESCO World Heritage city. According to Nicole, the Terragraph implementation in Cyberjaya will also be in partnership with a local service provider although the official announcement will be made the company itself very soon....
