BTS Starts Military Service

All seven members of the group are to fulfill their mandatory duties to South Korea - which ask all able-bodied men to serve for 18 to 21 months before their 31st birthday - with oldest member Jin set to be the first to enlist this month, ahead of his 30th birthday in December. An announcement from Big Hit Music stated: "He will then follow the enlistment procedure of the Korean government. "Other members of the group plan to carry out their military service based on their own individual plans. "Both the company and the members of BTS are looking forward to reconvening as a group again around 2025 following their service commitment."

 

The announcement was made on the band's social media pages in the wake of their free concert to support South Korea's World Expo bid in Busan on Saturday (15.10.22). The statement read: "BIG HIT MUSIC is proud to announce today that the members of BTS are currently moving forward with plans to fulfill their military service. "After the phenomenal concert to support Busan's bid for the World Expo 2030, and as each individual embarks on solo endeavors, it's the perfect time and the members of BTS are honored to serve. "Since the creation of BTS over ten years ago, the band has risen to international success, broken records, and catapulted K-Pop into the global stratosphere. "BIG HIT MUSIC has focused to the milestone moment when it would be possible to respect the needs of the country and for these healthy young men to serve with their countrymen, and that's now." It had been thought the group might be exempted from military service under plans put forward by South Korea's Culture, Sports and Tourism minister Hwang Hee, on the grounds they had already served their country through their huge global success, and other exceptional citizens, such as Olympians and classical musicians had been excused. However, the plan was met with opposition from many people who had completed their service and now appears to have been dropped.

Try Guys Ned Fulmer Has Been Kicked After Cheating

The 'Try Guys' famous for trying all sorts of things, from food to women's clothing say they cut the cord with Ned following an internal review, explaining they did not see a path forward together. It appears Ned is already being scrubbed from a ton of 'Try Guys' content eagle-eyed fans say he suddenly disappeared from some recent videos, and he's been absent from the group's recent podcasts. With Fulmer’s departure, The Try Guys will comprise the three remaining members: Keith Habersberger, Zach Kornfeld and Eugene Lee Yang. The group had launched their careers while at BuzzFeed, before leaving the digital media company in June 2018 to form their own production company, 2nd Try. A spokesperson for the Try Guys did not respond to a request for more information.

The Try Guys, with their trademark willingness to try virtually anything, have produced videos featuring the guys doing everything from testing out labor-pain simulators to attempting Alaskan dog sledding, and from parallel parking 18-wheeler trucks to getting nail extensions. The Try Guys currently have 7.8 million subscribers on their YouTube channel. Among their first videos while they were at BuzzFeed was “Guys Try Ladies’ Underwear for the First Time,” which went viral in 2014 and currently has more than 22 million views. The group penned bestselling book “The Hidden Power of F---ing Up” and were featured in documentary film “Behind the Try.” The Try Guys also landed a show on Food Network, “No-Recipe Road Trip With the Try Guys,” produced by Beyond Productions, which premiered on the TV network and Discovery+ in August 2022. In the series, which stars all four of the members, The Try Guys test their culinary instincts to recreate signature menu items in restaurants across the country without any recipes or other instruction. The individual Try Guy with the most successful dish as picked by a local chef and guest judge gets the chance to have his dish put on the restaurant’s menu. Popular comedy group The Try Guys have cut their ties with Ned Fulmer, one of the four founding members, who admitted that he had a “consensual” workplace affair. “Ned Fulmer is no longer working with The Try Guys,” the group said in a tweet Tuesday. “As a result of a thorough internal review, we do not see a path forward together. We thank you for your support as we navigate this change.” Fulmer, in a post on Twitter shortly after the Try Guys’ announcement, confirmed rumors that had circulated on social media alleging he had engaged in an extramarital affair. “Family should have always been my priority, but I lost focus and had a consensual workplace relationship,” Fulmer said in the post. “I’m sorry for any pain that my actions may have caused to the guys and the fans but most of all to Ariel,” he said, referring to his wife. Fulmer added, “The only thing that matters right now is my marriage and my children, and that’s where I’m going to focus my attention.” In a post on Instagram, Ariel Fulmer wrote, “Thanks to everyone who has reached out to me — it means a lot. Nothing is more important to me and Ned than our family, and all we request right now is that you respect our privacy for the sake of our kids.” Prior to the Try Guys announcement, fans posting in online forums had noticed that Fulmer has not appeared in the group’s recent videos and in some cases was edited out of previous episodes.

Cristiano Ronaldo Is Coming Back To Manchester United!

Soccer Superstar Cristiano Ronaldo could be headed back to the English Premier League and he's being linked to the crosstown rivals of the team where he became an icon. According to multiple reports, Ronaldo is being linked to a transfer to powerhouse Manchester City, winners of three of the last four Premier League titles. City, which just lost former striker Sergio Agüero to Barcelona, is coached by Pep Guardiola, largely considered to be one of the top soccer managers in the world. The transfer would be a seismic shift in a summer that has already seen some significant changes, none bigger than Lionel Messi leaving Barcelona for Paris Saint-Germain.

Ronaldo, 36, is one of the most decorated soccer players in history. A five-time Ballon d'Or winner, Ronaldo has also won seven domestic championships and five Champions League titles in his 20 seasons in European soccer. Ronaldo became an international soccer star in the early-mid 2000s, when he played for Manchester United for six seasons. Manchester City and Manchester United are bitter rivals. Before joining Manchester United, he played one season for Sporting CP, a club in his native Portugal. But after he left Manchester United, he went on to star for Spanish giants Real Madrid, where he played for nine seasons from 2009-18. As rumors have started to swirl over Ronaldo's future, he posted a message to his verified Instagram account on August 17, referring to the speculation about his future as a "disrespect." Ronaldo has won the Ballon d'Or five times in his career, helping Manchester United, Real Madrid and Juventus all win league titles. He has a combined five Champions League titles in his career and could help Manchester City win its first after losing in the final last year. Ronaldo remains a threat on the pitch, scoring 60 goals in 66 Serie A matches over the last two seasons. It could create an exciting partnership if Manchester City is able to complete the move before the transfer window closes Tuesday.

Rick and Morty Cosplay Brings Jessica to Life

Surprisingly, Jessica has been the focal point in a lot of Rick and Morty's stories and now one artist has brought her to life through cosplay. Although she has yet to be given a full adventure alongside Morty, Jessica has been playing a pivotal role in the franchise for quite some time. As the object of the young Morty's affection, Jessica has been at the center of a few hilarious moments where this is often turned against him in some unexpected way. It also makes each of her appearances in later seasons all the more interesting as she's been through into the fold even more.

In fact, although she did not get much actual time in the episode we learned a lot about how Jessica operates during the fourth season's premiere. This episode saw Morty use a Death Crystal to get to a point in the future where he dies beside an older Jessica (who for some reason dresses the same way), but it was all just Jessica wanting to help older people pass on peacefully.

 It was the hilariously dark kind of humor Rick and Morty is known for, and it's why each time we see Jessica she's been shown in a different way. Now one artist has found yet another new way to show Jessica love through cosplay! Artist @gaera_cosplay (who you can find more work from on Instagram here) brought Jessica to life in an adorable new way, and you can check it out below:

Vivo Y20, Vivo Y20i specifications Leaked, Snapdragon 460 SoC and 5,000mAh Battery Tipped

Vivo Y20 and Vivo Y20i alleged specifications have leaked through marketing material, shared by a known tipster on Twitter. The two phones seem to be powered by the Snapdragon 460 SoC and carry mostly the same specifications, except for the RAM, colour options, and charging speed. Recently, a Vivo phone with model number V2027 was spotted on the Indonesian certification database and Geekbench website, also suggesting the Snapdragon 460 SoC. As of now, Vivo has not shared any official information on the Vivo Y20 series.

Vivo Y20, Vivo Y20i specifications (expected)

From the image of the alleged marketing material shared on Twitter by known tipster Mukul Sharma, it can be seen that the Vivo Y20 and Vivo Y20i will run on Funtouch OS 10.5, based on Android 10. The phones are said to feature 6.51-inch Halo FullView displays. The processor, as mentioned earlier, is listed as the Snapdragon 460 and while the Vivo Y20 specifications show 4GB RAM, the Vivo Y20i is listed with 3GB of RAM.

In terms of optics, the two phones are said to come with triple rear camera setups that will include a 13-megapixel primary shooter, a 2-megapixel macro camera, and a 2-megapixel portrait camera. On the front, the phones are rumoured to come with an 8-megapixel shooter that is housed in a notch.

Moto G9 Launching in India on August 24, Motorola Accidentally Reveals

Moto G9 is coming and the phone will be making its debut in India. Both e-retailer Flipkart and Motorola have been teasing the launch of “something big” for days now and while neither has officially revealed exactly which phone is going to be unveiled, the Lenovo-owned company itself has let it slip that we will see Moto G9 on Monday, August 24. It remains unclear whether Motorola will just unveil Moto G9 or other rumoured Moto G9-series phones like Moto G9 Plus and Moto G9 Play as well.

Motorola India is teasing the fans on Twitter about the new launch and sharing link of a Flipkart teaser page for the phone. This URL that the company is sharing clearly mentions Moto G9 name, thus revealing what we are going to see next week.

Moto G9 launch

Motorola is teasing that it will launch the new phone at 12pm (noon) on August 24; however, the company isn't hosting a virtual launch to unveil the new phone and it will simply announce the phone on social media and Flipkart at 12pm.

 

Moto G9 features, specifications (expected)

Surprisingly, Motorola has been able to keep a tight lid of Moto G9 leaks and rumours and we are yet to hear anything credible about this upcoming phone. If Motorola's previous Moto G series record is any indication, we will likely see a mid-range smartphone.

As per a teaser page on Flipkart, Moto G9 will offer “spectacular performance” and will carry “stunning camera” and a “massive battery.” While most of these adjectives don't really mean anything, considering every smartphone by every company does everything “spectacularly,” the “massive battery” does suggest the presence of at least 5,000mAh battery or more on the phone.

Further, the teaser page mentions the presence of Qualcomm Snapdragon SoC on the phone, the exact model isn't clear though. Flipkart is also teasing that the phone will be able to take good photos in low light.

In other titbits present on the Flipkart page, we see an outline of the phone that indicates the presence of a waterdrop-style notch on the phone as well as a slightly thicker chin. Other bezels are noticeable thinner.

Moto G9 and any other Moto G9 series phone launched on August 24 will succeed the Moto G8 series in the country that includes phones like Moto G8 Plus and Moto G8 Power Lite.

Xbox Series X’s Price May Have Leaked, And It Isn’t Bang For The Buck!

Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5: Both are all ready for the upcoming console war.

A report by Bloomberg was released on Thursday which said that the PlayStation 5 might be the most expensive console in 25 years of gaming products by Sony.

The manufacturing cost of the PS5 is supposed to be $450 per unit. Therefore, we can expect a price of $500 or maybe higher. This definitely provides Xbox Series X to win the race by cutting out its price.

However, the company has not announced the price officially of their console. But both, Microsoft and Sony have confirmed that these consoles are going to have a powerful and expensive technology. Both the next-gen consoles will have solid-state drives and also support ray-tracing.

Well, we expect that Microsoft is in a better position to give these features at a comparatively lower price.

As we see that, Xbox is currently lagging behind PlayStation and Nintendo Switch. Therefore, it needs to have a powerful comeback. The release of Xbox Series X might be a chance for Microsoft to turn the power towards them in the next generation.

 

How is it possible for Microsoft to undercut PS5?

As we have seen that Microsoft is the most profitable company in the world. They valued more than $1 trillion as of the stats of January. And most of the hard cash is earned from the other departments that have nothing to do with Xbox.
History can Repeat

PS3 was released back in 2006 and was priced at $599 which was $100 more than Microsoft. Therefore, PS3 reported slower sales because of the wrong steps taken by the company in terms of price.

Therefore, either Sony will keep the price of PS5 lower than Series X and take a massive loss or price it higher than the Xbox Series X resulting in slower sales.

In both ways, PS5 is going to have a risky future.

HyperScape: Here Are The Best Weapons That Would Get You The Crown Victory!

HyperScape: In order to win in most of the battle royale games, we have to kill all the players in the match. But, in HyperScape you don’t have to do so in order to win. Also, you can go for the Crown and can win that way. Once you have caught the Crown you will have to hold it for 45 seconds. The only problem is that your location will be revealed to everyone who is near you.

Therefore, the best option here is running so find any skill such as teleporting, which can help you at that moment. Slam will also be a good choice as it will transport you to a different place for a period of time. So, use both the abilities to escape from the other players.

 

Weapons that are recommended

We have listed the best weapons that you can use:

• Hexfire- The magazine size of Hexfire can start at 150 and can go up to 270 at level 5.
• D-Tap- If you are not perfect at aiming then D-Tap is the best sidearm that you should have. The bullets of this weapon auto-track the enemies itself.
• Skybreaker- This is a weird weapon. It is a bit situational especially in a movement, heavy game like the HyperScape. But this offers really good damage at higher ranks.
• Komodo- This weapon is slow at firing. But is pretty good at 29 per shot.
• Ripper- This rifle gives an output of 11 body/ 16 headshot damage per shot from rank 1 to 4 and 13/18 headshot damage at level 5.
• Protocol-V- This is a choice of most of the snipers which deal with 50 body shot damage and 75 headshot at rank 1 which rises to 80 body shot and 120 headshot damage.
