    qlj555 got a reaction from Sharif in Woman evades kidnapper with the help of Pizza Hut app   
    According to WFLA, the woman had been arguing with her boyfriend when he threatened her life with a large knife. Her phone was then taken, but not before she was given permission to order a pizza. Hostages and kidnappers gotta eat. Thinking of a way to escape, the woman cleverly added a little message to her order, but it wasn’t a call for extra toppings or napkins.

     

    “911hostage help!” and “Please help. Get 911 to me,” the message read. That’s when the local Pizza Hut, who said the woman was a regular, called police.

     

    When officers responded, they found the woman and her children in the house unharmed, and eventually took her boyfriend into custody—all because of her quick thinking. No word on what happened to the pizza, but one would hope the woman was treated to a complimentary pie following the frightening ordeal.

    qlj555 got a reaction from Embattled in Android M coming at Google I/O this month   
    Google just released the schedule for its developer conference at the end of this month, otherwise known as Google I/O.   Apparently Google did have a piece of information hiding in the schedule, however, and it referenced “Android M.” Android Police grabbed an image of the schedule, included above, though it has since been pulled. It seems likely, then, that Google will introduce the next version of its operating system in a similar fashion to how it introduced Android 5.0 Lollipop. That began when it launched “Android L” during Google I/O last year.
     
    That’s about all the information there is on Android M, however. But the good news is it sounds like Google will indeed talk about the next major iteration of Android later this month, which may have been in development since at least September, and we can’t wait to hear what sort of changes are coming.

    qlj555 got a reaction from GoldSrc in Need for Speed coming back to consoles and PC in 2015   
    During its yearly financial call, EA confirmed that the Need for Speed racing franchise will be returning to high end consoles and PCs in 2015. Details are few and far between at the moment aside from the release window, and EA doesn’t even have a name chosen yet.

    qlj555 got a reaction from mustafaali61 in WWE 2K15 can be modded, confirms 2K rep   
    With the PC version of former console exclusive WWE 2K15 out in the wild, it looks like modding support has been confirmed. That's according to 2K Games representative Marcus Stephenson, who passed the info on to a curious Twitter user (via Destructoid). While it's unlikely 2K Games will offer bespoke modding tools for WWE, it does mean modders have the publisher's blessing, nay invitation, to crack the game open. Once they do we'll almost certainly get a playable Gabe Newell. It's inevitable.

    qlj555 got a reaction from RH00D in WWE 2K15 coming to Windows PCs this spring   
    Source: http://www.wrestlinginc.com/wi/news/2015/0421/592620/wwe-2k15-announced-for-windows-pc

    WWE Games announced today that the WWE 2K15 video game will be released on Windows PC this spring. 2K Sports says they have taken great measures to make sure the PC version of the game includes everything that makes the console version great, including 2K Showcase and MyCareer modes.

     

    Gamers who buy the PC version on the first day it's released will receive immediate access to two version of Sting and two of Hulk Hogan. DLC content for the game will be released later in the spring and will be free. DLC includes the WCW and NXT packs, as well as the additional 2K Showcase modes such as One More Match, Hall of Pain and Path of the Warrior.

     

    WWE United States Champion and cover star John Cena commented on the DLC content being free:

     

    "One of the great bonuses of getting the game on PC is that you get nearly all of the downloadable content that was released after WWE 2K15 launched in October free, as part of the package. That's an incredible amount of content: 36 extra characters, 4 new managers, 26 matches, 46 entire single player stories and cut scenes in 2K Showcase, and a whole lot more. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that that's a pretty awesome deal."

    Cena also commented on the game finally coming to the PC:

     

    "I grew up playing games on my PC. Texas Instruments, Commodore 64… I was a huge PC gamer growing up, so this is big. Not only for our fans, but for me personally as well. Fans may not know this, but I was such a huge PC gamer that I bought a living room entertainment system just to play PC games back in the day. So don't be surprised if you flash forward 50 years and yours truly is sitting in his living room playing computer games!"

    qlj555 got a reaction from TopWargamer in Vodafone to re-enter the U.S. market as T-Mobile MVNO   
    According to a press release published last night, Voda is going to return to the usa as an MVNO using T-Mobile’s network. It’s plan is to aim squarely at the enterprise market, to provide a solution specifically for multi-national clients. It’s planning to launch the service late next year (2015). Vodafone wants to supply wireless services to more than 400 multinational clients, and a further 500 Vodafone multinational customers based outside America, but with a “strong U.S. presence”.
     
    According to the press release Vodafone’s MNC proposition includes: an unrivaled international wireless footprint, with networks in 27 countries (including 16 Vodafone markets with 4G LTE networks) extending to more than 75 countries through partner market relationships proven total communications products and services for enterprise, from telecommunications expense management and security products to cloud services and Vodafone OneNet fixed-mobile converged products and services enabling employees to collaborate and communicate on any device on any network, anywhere ongoing expansion of the world’s most advanced IP-VPN global network, with 91 points of presence (PoPs) rising to 212 PoPs by the end of 2015 to span 67 countries and global leadership in M2M capabilities, with Vodafone SIMs now embedded in more than 18.6 million products across 23 countries From a T-Mobile point-of-view this could give the company a bigger foothold in the enterprise market. And area where, traditionally, T-Mobile hasn’t done so well. At least not compared to the likes of Verizon which has a huge corporate customer base.
