BYMatt Brian @m4tt14 hours ago

As part of its expanded alliance with Sky, Virgin Media said its customers would be getting easier access to movies and sport on the go through Sky's mobile apps. Today, the cable company's shed some more light on how the process will work, announcing that you'll be able to log into Sky's Sport and Movie apps using your existing Virgin Media credentials from next month (if you're already a TV subscriber). At launch, only Sky's iOS apps will support this login option, meaning you'll have to wait for a future update to enjoy the same content on your Android device.

3D printer headed to the International Space Station this August

BYZach Honig @zachhonig9 hours ago

Astronauts on the International Space Station will need to make room for one more gadget: a NASA-certified 3D printer. The device, designed by Made in Space at NASA's Ames Research Park in Mountain View, will launch on SpaceX CRS-4 in August, a few months ahead of schedule. Initially, astronauts will test the printer in the ISS' microgravity environment, but eventually it could be used to build tools and other hardware needed for on-board repairs or cubesat deployments. Down the road, Made in Space's clients could also have access to the printer for their own experiments. "This is unprecedented access to space," CEO Aaron Kemmer said in a press release. "If you want to 3D print in space, contact us now."

«Minecraft» comes on Xbox and PlayStation 4 August

Minecraft play on a console is really great. It is basically the same delicious/terrifying experience of the PC, but in the comfort of your living room. What's not to love? Now, on the last generation consoles, there was at least an unfortunate side effect of the platform: the world of Minecraft procedurally generated was significantly less than what you could do on the PC. 4 versions come with an Xbox and PlayStation this month August this change. As Developer Studio Mojang said, "it provides significantly higher worlds and a greater distance from the draw as Xbox 360 Edition." " Hot dog!

Of course, the world of the most small generation Minecraft should suffice (and believe us, it is large enough), the PlayStation version of the Vita is also the month of August. Here's the even better news: If you have already purchased the game on the PlayStation 3, you have to Vita. A similar provision applies to people from switching the PS3/Xbox 360 versions on the PS4/AC versions: If you already own the previous version and want to upgrade to the current generation are, it's only $5. The agreement of the latter applies to the first year of its existence, then would soon-ish, hang it on the cheap to upgrade.

Will sweeten the games deal still further Sauvé develop load Gen/Vita until the current generation consoles (even if it is not possible to go back - be careful!). All updates to the versions of the latest generation comes packaged in the August version, and the whole package goes for $20 Oh, and lianas are always super, super creepy.
