Open Thread: What Would You Build With A Web Of Data?

There’s no better time to take your Xbox on a vacation to New Zealand because doing so will get you access to EA FC25 a few hours before your own country gets it – assuming you don’t live in New Zealand anyway. With the way the world clock and time zones work, New Zealand is one of the first places on the planet to pass midnight on the 20th of September and with the game releasing in each region at precisely that time, should, say, your Xbox think it is in New Zealand, then you will get access to the full game the minute it unlocks there with no penalty to your account. You will have to jump through a couple of minor hoops to achieve this, and you will want to change things back once the game releases for real in your own time to avoid complicating things in the future, but it’s a simple enough process. You will obviously need to have bought the Ultimate edition of EA FC25 or you won’t have early access when the game goes live at midnight on the 20th anyway, and you also won’t get your bonus gifts for buying the big version until it actually unlocks in your region for real, but if you want to get started on your Ultimate Team, and you don’t want to use either the web or companion app to do so, this is a solid way to get going, and actually play the game first as well. Let’s have a look at the steps we need to take to get this working. How to change Xbox to New Zealand It’s worth pointing out here you can change your Xbox to any region whenever you like, but we are obviously going to become a Kiwi for a few hours because of the time zones.

With two more cuts penciled in by the end of the year, we may finally get some relief from high interest rates.

Satisfactory is all about building the most impressive and complex structures around in order to make streamlined production lines. However, while you’re likely taking extreme care when constructing any form of building, there are times when you either make a mistake or want to switch things up. In particular, it can be awkward dismantling blueprints that you have produced if you’re not familiar with the process. Below, we’ll reveal exactly how to delete a Satisfactory blueprint so you can get to remodeling your creations. Satisfactory blueprints: How to dismantle While actually placing your buildings is a pretty pain-free process, it appears many are having some difficulty in getting rid of them. The quickest and easiest way to dismantle a blueprint in Satisfactory is by entering dismantling mode by hitting F and then pressing R. This will toggle the option to the blueprint dismantling process, enabling you to delete entire blueprints at once. To go back to the default deleting mode, just press R once more and you’ll be good to go. Obviously, this will save you some serious time as the more ‘traditional’ method of old was to save your game before each placement and then reload if you made a mistake. Now we’re out of Early Access, thankfully this has been refined, allowing you to streamline your building and dismantling to create the perfect placements. Saving before doing any large structure though is likely recommended anyway just to ensure you don’t crash your game and lost any progress that has been made up to this point.

Stark Industries appears to be taking over Fortnite in the latest update with drones, chests, and other themed goodies entering the map. Obviously Iron Man is involved too and while you can pick up the Mk 45 skin from the Item Shop and wield the Mythics in-game, you’re also able to speak with Iron Man himself in a match. But where is Iron Man in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4?
