CyanogenMod 10 Boot Animation Available for Download

Last night the author of the last few CyanogenMod boot animations, 73v1n, graced the world with a completely revamped boot animation for CyanogenMod 10. The CyanogenMod 9 boot animation featured the CyanogenMod mascot, Cid, which seemed to generate a lot of rage from many CM fans. During the bootup process, Cid’s facial expression changed a bit, looking angry, bad, evil (or bad ass) depending whom you ask. Learning a thing or two since last time, the author decided to completely redo the boot boot animation, removing all traces of Cid, version numbers, and making it as clean as possible.

It’s a matter of setting your enemies ablaze or becoming crisp bacon yourself.

Sonic Runners Adventure sounds a bit familiar, races its way to the Play Store

Mostly thanks to Sonic Mania, Sega‘s speedy blue hedgehog has garnered more positive attention than it has in a long time. Those good times look to continue with Sonic Runners Adventure, an auto-runner that looks and sounds a bit familiar. No, it’s not because there’s already a Sonic-themed mobile title available on the Play Store — Sonic Forces: Speed Battle does exist, after all — but because Sonic Runners Adventure already existed as Sonic Runners, the only mobile game released by Sonic Team.

Square Enix RPG games are on sale at Google Play

Not all games have to come with a $1 price tag, especially for RPG titles from Square Enix and their iconic Final Fantasy series. While the seemingly exorbitant price that the developer charges isn’t to everyone’s taste, it’s at time like these we are grateful that holidays exist, for they help bring the price tags of these pricey games down, albeit temporarily.

Verizon joins LiMo's board, bad news for Android?

Last week Verizon Wireless joined the board of the LiMo (Linux Mobile) Foundation, a group with the purpose of standardizing the Linux operating system for use on mobile devices. So far, LiMo has not been very organized, and we have not seen much in terms of material progress come from the group. But now that Verizon has joined, they are saying that we’ll see LiMo based devices in Verizon’s shops in 2009.

Intel reveals impressive Ice Lake chips, but you'll have to wait for them

Intel didn’t have the best 2018, thanks to a resurgent AMD and high-profile vulnerabilities. But the company is kicking off 2019 in a big way with its new Ice Lake laptop chips, revealed at CES. The mobile chip range stands out as Intel’s first “volume” 10nm PC processor, compared to the predecessor’s 14nm manufacturing process. In theory, the smaller design means we should see better battery life and less thermal-induced throttling.
