It took some time for Xiaomi to ship its latest Mi 10 5G smartphone in India because of the coronavirus situation in the country and all over the world but, finally, it was launched today.

The Internet has changed so many things we do these days, and we tend to take it for granted. Here are some things that the evolution of the Internet has changed in our lives:


1. The Web of Information - There is so much information at our fingertips these days, and we instantly have access to it. Gone are the days of having to go through numerous libraries looking for information, when all we need to do is to go on the Internet.


2. Add-Ons Making Our Lives Easier - When writing, searching the Internet, or even communicating with people, add-ons have been revolutionary. Creating a web of trust for us, and helping us avoid malicious sites, it seems we can't live without add-ons these days.


3. Online Gaming - All modern consoles and desktop computers are connected to the Internet and allow us to play with people from all over the world. We tend to take them for granted these days, but where would we be without the ability to compete against each other?


4. Twitch and YouTube - The ability to stream our gameplay and watch others playing is growing in popularity, especially with eSports. Imagine how hard it was to do that in the past? We did have old shows like Gamesmaster, but not live and not instantly at hand.


5. Netflix and Chill - Streaming our favourite movies and television show is something we all love to do. Binge-watching now means simply selecting what we want to watch, instead of continually having to change the VHS/DVD/Blu-ray after every few episodes.


6. Online Shopping - The ability to purchase anything we want and have it sent to our homes is something we take for granted now. Many would argue that this is one of the best evolutions of the Internet and what it has done for us.


7. Improved Customer Support - Gone are the days of having to pay telephone charges to get help, with customer support being available on the Internet. With live chats with people ready to help, it seems that getting help has never been easier.


8. The Power of the New Media - News has gone through a revolution with live streaming from phones and other devices. Gone are the days when we were reliant on television news show, as the Internet provides news instantaneously to us all.


9. Accountability - The Internet has helped us to hold people with authority to account. Gone are the days when governments try to hide facts, with the Internet bringing protesters together to work for the good of the people. There may be dangers of "fake news" but most of us see through that quickly.


10. The Smart Phone - The Internet is in the palm of our hands wherever we go. What better evolution of the Internet than this instant access from anywhere around the world?


The Internet continues to evolve and get better and better. We reap the rewards of the technical advances we see every day, and the list above are just a few ways our lives have been improved.


Steve jobs iphone

 

Exactly 8 years ago on January 10th, 2007... Apple's CEO Steve Jobs took the stage before the public at the Macworld Conference & Expo in Moscone West in San Francisco, California and unvield the first-generation iPhone.

 

After quickly walking through Apple's position on the market and updating the attendees about everything Cupertino-related, Jobs transfixingly said his signature "one more thing" mantra and teased the public that he'll be treating them to not one, but three new devices a "widescreen iPod with touch controls", a "revolutionary mobile phone", and a "breakthrough Internet communicator".

 

Of course, this was one device. The one and only Apple iPhone. It was not flawless, but it surely set in motion the wheels of the smartphone industry and led to its nowadays' state.

Samurai-slots

 

Technically, one slot machine is the same as another. You put your money in, spin, and wait to see if you've got any winning combinations. This is true whether you're in a brick and mortar casino or on a mobile one like SCR888

That said, not all mobile slot games are created equal. Some look good but perform poorly. Others look awful but are fun to play. Wading through the thousands of games out there to find the right ones for you can take a long time.

That's why we've compiled this list of our top five picks. For a game to make our list, it had to be: 

  • Well-designed with great graphics

  • Fun and fair

  • A smooth operator

  • Available on Android and iOS

Are you ready to spin to win? Then let's get started. 

Egyptian Rise

Egypt is a common theme with slot games, but none make it look quite so cool as Egyptian Rise. This game presents Egyptian symbols in a modern punk style for those who are tired of the vintage look. The music is fun, and the Return to Player (RTP) is a massive 97.75%.

With 243 winning combinations, if you don't win with this game, you're exceptionally unlucky. You earn an extra spin with each win, bonuses, and free spins. 

Beat the Bobbies

This tongue-in-cheek game has fresh cartoon graphics. Win by matching the suave masked bandit or by getting three stern-looking bobbies. Matching loot, cute little grannies, and a range of other fun characters and graphics make it fun.

The game boasts a generous free spin bonus that puts you in the driver's seat. Choose your number of free spins and your level of reward. Opt for five spins and get the maximum award of 10 times the amount to maximize your profit.

Alternatively, eke out your gameplay by opting for 20 spins with all wins multiplied by two.

Finn and the Swirly Spin

Practice your best Irish accent and take a trip to the Emerald Isle. This magic-packed game comes replete with leprechauns, dragons, and magical symbols. Keep an eye out for the key to big wins. With an RTP of 96.62%, you'll feel as though you touched the Blarney Stone.

Big Blox

"I like big blocks, and I cannot lie." If Sir Mix-a-Lot had played this game, "Baby Got Back" might have been a very different song. The graphics are reminiscent of another popular game, Zuma's Revenge, but a lot more fun. Watch the symbols expand as you spin and maximize your winnings. 

Pyramid: Quest for Immortality

You'll feel like a true immortal playing this game. The game uses the classic Egyptian graphics that we've come to love. What makes it unique, however, is that it features five reels and 720 lines. The Avalanche feature sends winning symbols cascading out so that you earn even more points. 

It'll take a while to get a handle on the rules with so many ways to win, but you'll be so busy having fun you'll barely notice.
