See the spawn rates of all 151 Pokemon in Pokemon Go

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/08f6adeae804d040d55ecaa3445e2f27.jpgAs popular as Pokemon Go has become, it's always been equally obtuse. Without spending a significant amount of time doing research on the internet, you probably wouldn't know how to catch a Pikachu as your starter, how to determine the power levels of your creatures or how to decipher the new appraisal feature. Another question that most trainers have: how do I know when a Pokemon is going to spawn? You're obviously less likely to find a Blastoise than you are a Pidgey, but what are the actual spawn rates for each individual Pokemon? We finally have the answers, thanks to some dedicated fans. …

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/02454dd3ad843ab270b085a28cb3de1e.jpg Rumor has it that Apple is working on a pair of truly wireless earbuds to sell alongside the new iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus, which will ditch the standard 3.5mm headphone jack. That may or may not happen, but guess what: Samsung already sells truly wireless earbuds. They're called the Samsung Gear IconX Cordfree Fitness Earbuds with Activity Tracker, they come in three different colors, and they're available to purchase right now on Amazon.

Good luck finding the iPhone 7 you want at launch

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/52ee88dc8e2fc4e67ef681cd2eab7d96.jpgThe iPhone 7 is hitting stores next month, but Apple is already reportedly having supply issues with the upcoming iPhone generation. This is the same kind of rumor we hear every year ahead of a new iPhone launch and so far, they've been fairly accurate. Last year, for example, more popular iPhone 6s models were very difficult to find for several weeks after the phone's release. This time around, a report from Asia singles out a couple of issues that are apparently affecting iPhone 7 production, but it also claims that Apple is already being conservative with component orders this year.

This totally soft robot has eight movable legs, just like its flesh-and-blood marine cousin, which was the inspiration for the device. Created partially through 3-D printing, the octobot is autonomous, according to Harvard’s John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences. Its power source is hydrogen peroxide, which together with a catalyst of platinum, creates gas that travels into the bot’s appendages to move them. (more…) Trending right now: Bra…

Uber’s new flat fare is cheaper than the bus

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/bdb3d85e74f1278dc65bc7832a944937.jpgNew test fares being rolled out by Uber in select markets are making the ride-sharing service all new kinds of cheap. A beta program being tested in a few chosen cities scrap surge pricing and charging per-mile in favor of a flat fare for UberPool that's the same price as a bus ticket. According to an email seen by Business Insider UK, pricing in San Francisco is a pack of 20 rides for $20, or 40 rides for $30. On top of that base fee, you then pay $2 per ride. So, on the lower pricing, you're paying $3 per ride for an UberPool trip. (more…) Trending right now: Brand new Pokemon Go f…

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/5876b7e3f07f6b490c0c09b208d4c6e5.jpg Remember back in the day when companies managed to get away with charging people thousands to install a home security system and then charging a monthly fee on top of that for "monitoring" services? Burglars take off the moment they hear an alarm go off, for obvious reasons: they don't want to stick around while all that racket draws attention. So instead of coughing up all that cash for a home alarm system, check out a device like the Edimax IC-5150W 1080P Full HD Wi-Fi Fisheye Cloud Camera with 180-Degree Panoramic View, which is on sale right now on Amazon for 20% off.

Whereas a company like Google can pursue and then shutter any number of ambitious “moonshots” and ultimately be applauded for their efforts, Apple is routinely criticized for not coming up with a device as revolutionary as the iPhone every 5 years. In a broad sense, Apple is forced to endure a level of criticism that no other tech company on the planet has to deal with.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/15590cf605a20ae03f58fa94d2f41578.jpg Typical Wi-Fi range extenders can work well if they're from a reputable company, but you can run into problems if your Wi-Fi signal is already weak by the time it reaches the spot where your range extender is plugged in. There's a much better solution out there though, and it uses powerline internet technology. In a nutshell, it sends your internet service over your wired power lines that are already installed in your walls, and then a remote extender broadcasts on the same network as your main router. It's a fantastic option for extending your home network, and one of the best models out…

JP Morgan, one of Apple's investment banks overseeing the case, has put the potential tax bill at $19 billion. That's a ways over the previous estimates, and a healthy chunk of change even for the cash-flush Apple. The news came at the same time as the US Treasury Department sought to intervene in the case. The government has entered the fight on Apple's side, accusing the European Commission of being a "supra-national tax authority." (more…) Trending right…
