A new VR game that plays through the power of thought
The young company Neurable finishes working on a fantastic virtual reality video game where you control the objects using the electrical activity of the brain.
The new virtual reality game is called Awakening and is controlled by brain activity. On the player's head, an elastic stand with electrodes is attached to the HTC Vive VR glasses.
According to the plot, the hero wakes up in his childhood and understands that he has telekinetic improvements and with the help of his mind he can move the different objects. The electrodes record brain activity and, according to the brain signals, determine what happens in the game.
To start the game, it takes about 10 minutes for initial training, but its creators shared that in December they will present a new version for which there is no pre-training. Neurable specialists believe their experience will be boosted by other video game developers.
Modern technology enables event management not only through the keyboard, mouse and game controller. For example, Microsoft Research technology uses Kinect technology and a smart finger and hand recognition method.

Essential Smartphones Confirms $300M Funding
A relatively unknown smartphone company known simply as Essential has recently gained $300M USD worth of funding from various investors. Some of these investors included tech companies such as Tencent and Amazon. The company was founded by Android co-creator Andy Rubin and has been in the works for quite some time now. The company is a new company that has focused on the smartphone industry. Currently they are working on various models for consumer use. With this funding in hand, the company has announced that the Essential phone (their first smartphone) will be releasing sometime late 2017 or early 2018. The company has also worked out deals with select retailers to carry the phone exclusively. These retailers are Best Buy and Amazon. The company plans to target Apple by creating a similar smartphone in terms of design and "premium feel". However, since the company is still in it's start up phase, they are not aiming to go head to head with Apple. Simply put, their goal is to create an alternative to the already popular iPhone. The company's total funding is set at $330M USD. A few details have been released about the smartphone but any concrete details have not yet been released by the company. Currently, the phone is set to have a very large screen and a very small bezel. Along with that, the phone will be Android based. Further information about the phone will be released within a few months.

Ok Shorty! - XXXTentacion
X has been among the most talked about artists of 2017, but why? His music lacks any real change and there's no wow factor. His music is all composed of shitty boosted bass mixed with crude vocals about all things fucking your mother. That being said, the beat for this new single is on point. It's unlike any of the other memerap beats he's had in the past and it actually sounds crisp. Who knows, maybe he'll start making music that will appeal to people outside of his pre-teen army. Is this music that will necessarily stand as a stunning piece of intellectual property? Of course not. However, if you're looking for a club-style banger to crank up real loud as you power through the tail end of another weekend, you could certainly do a lot worse than this.
Personally the beat helped this song become good so I'll give it a 4 / 10
You can listen to the song here.

NBA is adjusting schedules to help better rest players
For the last decade Greg Popovich, the head coach of the San Antonio Spurs, has been resting his NBA stars due to the large amount of games in a short period of time. As of last season the NBA had a problem with NBA stars resting in games, with players such as: Lebron James, Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant, Draymond Green, Kyrie Irving, and several other NBA stars resting. This year the NBA has decided to implement new rules to prevent this from happening and disappointing fans when their favorite players are on the bench instead of the court. The rules implemented will be reducing the number of games NBA teams see in a short period of time, "A reduction in the number of times teams play five games in seven nights to just 40 instances across the entire league (1.3 per team). Last season, this happened 90 times (three per team)." These new rules should have superstars playing more games this season than ever before, but it is always up to the head coaches decision.

Jordan Amavi has joined Marseille on loan with a view to a permanent transfer
Aston Villa defender Jordan Amavi has joined Marseille on loan with a view to a permanent deal.
The 23-year-old left-back joined Villa from Nice for £9m two years ago but saw his first season at Villa Park cut short when he sustained a serious knee injury while on international duty with France. The arrival of Neil Taylor from Swansea at the start of this year effectively ended Amavi's career at Villa. The Frenchman had looked set to join Sevilla on a permanent deal last month, only for the proposed £8m transfer to collapse when the Spanish club claimed he failed a medical. Amavi made 36 appearances for Villa last season in all competitions. The Frenchman had looked set to join Sevilla on a permanent deal last month but the move fell through, reportedly due to a failed medical. Should the loan be a success, he will join Marseille for £9m - the same fee for which he arrived in 2015.

40% of the Global Population uses Social Media
Currently there is more than three billion active social media users, increasing on a day to day basis, hence making up 40% of the global population (7.5 billion people); thus almost half of the world’s population login on various types of social media platforms each day, which is absolutely mind perplexing. Whereas, there have been a slight bump in the global number of users since the April; the number of users have increased approximately 121 million users, equating to around 4% of the whole number of Social Media Global Users. Let alone Facebook having 2.01 billion users active on June of this month, which is a 17% increase in comparison to the previous year. Social media have always been the road for us both receiving and sending information to parts around the world that haven’t been heard of, social media have constantly been one of the channels that enabled us to express ourselves freely without any restrictions; where we are able to discuss topics, share our daily activities, pictures, and ideas with a glimpse of an eye. Social Media is taking over the world, with a massive influx of users year by year, if this year it’s around half of the global population, what will the case be for the upcoming year? And what effects will it have on our society?

Man Pees On Family At Metallica Concert

Daniel Daddio, 44, from New Mexico is facing charges after he allegedly peed on a family at a Metallica Concert in Glendale, Arizona. A father, who was attending the show with his wife and ten year old daughter told employees at the University of Phoenix stadium they “felt warm liquid washing over their backs and legs,”. When the police showed up, Daddio denied peeing on the family. He was arrested later on and appeared to be intoxicated.

Mutant Piggo
A mutant pig two bodies and eight legs died minutes after being born. The piglet appeared to have been joined to a parasitic twin, said the farmer, Gao Baiqi. The pig was born with underdeveloped skin and numerous extra limbs. Gao, who lives in Fe County in Linyi City in China's eastern Shandong Province, spotted the little piglet among the rest of the litter after they were born. Gao said the animal kicked and struggled, and he had planned to hand-rear it before it suddenly stopped breathing.

"Besides having one head, two bodies and eight legs, the piglet appeared normal and had all other organs," Gao said.

"I had prepared milk and wanted to feed it myself, but it died in a few minutes," he added.

Gao buried the piglet on his farm - after showing it to curious residents living nearby.
