KONTAK PERKASA FUTURES - Hampir sebagian besar gamer sepertinya terkejut dengan keputusan EA untuk “membunuh Visceral Games” beberapa waktu lalu. Dev. di balik banyak game raksasa seperti Dead Space dan Battlefield: Hardline ini bukanlah developer main-main. Tangan dingin mereka sudah menghasilkan game yang sudah dipuja-puji oleh banyak orang, bahkan dijadikan sebagai standar untuk produk kompetitif selanjutnya, khususnya Dead Space. Apalagi Visceral Games juga diberi tanggung jawab untuk menangani satu di antara proyek Star Wars yang dikerjakan EA, dengan Amy Hennig – penulis cerita Uncharted dari Naughty Dog berperan sebagai penanggung jawab. Namun sayangnya, Visceral berakhir menjadi “korban” terbaru EA, dan game Star Wars yang sempat disebut sebagai “RagTag” akhirnya dipastikan diubah. Apa yang sebenarnya terjadi? KONTAK PERKASA FUTURES - CFO EA – Blake Jorgensen berbicara secara eksplisit terkait hal tersebut. Ia menyebut bahwa EA memang ingin mendorong kualitas game yang diracik Visceral Games ke level yang lebih tinggi. Namun setelah melewati proses penilaian berulang-ulang, game ini terlihat semakin linear. Sebuah tipe game yang menurut EA, sudah tidak lagi disukai gamer saat ini jika dibandingkan dengan 5 atau 10 tahun yang lalu. Setelah menghitung dengan seksama untung-ruginya, EA memutuskan bahwa proyek game Star Wars linear seperti ini tidak akan membuat mereka balik modal atau menarik keuntungan. Oleh karena itu, mereka memutuskan untuk “membunuh” Visceral Games. EA menyebut bahwa semua keputusan ini diambil semata-mata karena perhitungan ekonomi, tanpa sesuatu yang personal. Mereka juga menyakinkan bahwa sebagian talenta dari Visceral Games yang ketika ditutup berjumlah sekitar 80 orang, berusaha dialihkan ke studio mereka yang lain, walaupun harus diakui bahwa beberapa di antaranya memang harus dilepas.
Lantas, bagaimana dengan Anda sendiri? Apakah Anda setuju dengan pernyataan EA, bahwa gamer saat ini memang tidak lagi suka dengan game-game linear? Source : jagatplay.com

PT KONTAK PERKASA FUTURES - Oppo telah resmi memperknalkan produk terbarunya yaitu Oppo F5 di Jakarta tangal 13 November silam. Dimana pada event tersebut, selain memperkenalkan versi standar Oppo juga memperkenalkan varian tertingginya yaitu F5 dengan RAM 6 GB. Rupanya varian tersebut banyak diminati konsumen di Indonesia, sehingga Oppo lebih awal untuk menutup pre-order dari perangkat tersebut tepatnya hari ini 28 November 2017. PT KONTAK PERKASA FUTURES - “Dengan sangat menyesal kami harus mengabarkan bahwa mulai hari ini pre order F5 6GB kami hentikan, kami mendapatkan jumlah pemesanan yang lebih banyak dari unit yang kami sediakan, F5 6GB saat ini over pre-order. Posisi kami antara senang mendengar hal ini sekaligus kecewa karena tidak semua konsumen bisa mendapatkan perangkat ini,” ujar Aryo Meidianto, PR Manager OPPO Indonesia. Adapun yang paling menarik minat konsumen tanah air adalah F5 6GB dengan varian berwarna merah yang saat ini stocknya telah habis dipesan. Sementara varian yang tersisa hanya tinggal warna hitam saja, yang kini hanya dapat dibeli secara langsung tanggal 2 Desember mendatang. Ditanya mengenai kemungkinan penambahan unit F5 6GB, Marketing Director OPPO Indonesia menambahkan “Sesungguhnya kami sudah melakukan permintaan untuk penambahan unit ke pusat, namun mengingat jumlah perangkat ini memang terbatas dan quota yang diberikan untuk pasar Asia Tenggara sudah ditetapkan maka, permintaan kami ditangguhkan. Saya rasa Indonesia cukup beruntung memiliki porsi yang sangat besaruntuk F5 6GB, tidak semua negara mendapatkan varian tertinggi F5 ini dalam jumlah yang cukup besar.”
OPPO Indonesia sendiri sebenarnya telah memprediksi jumlah perangkat F5 6GB yang akan dijual di Indonesia. Namun, prediksi tersebut meleset dari perkiraan, respon konsumen yang melakukan preorder jauh lebih banyak terhadap perangkat ini OPPO F5 6GB sendiri hadir dengan membawa keunggulan layar penuh FHD+ 18 : 9 yang membawa pengalaman visual yang lebih baik kepada konsumen. Perangkat ini juga dilengkapi kamera selfie 20 Megapixel yang dilengkapi dengan A.I Beauty Recognition Technology. Yang membedakan dengan F5 versi regular adalah perangkat varian tertinggi ini memiliki kapasitas RAM 6GB dan Internal 64GB sedangkan versi regular menggunakan RAM 4GB serta Internal storage 32 GB.

Di Bawah Hujan, Para Siswa Memberikan Bunga Kepada Guru11/28/2017 KONTAK PERKASA FUTURES - Back in 2014, Randy Blythe flew to Taiwan to film a cameo in Tshiong, a new action-comedy from the Taiwanese metal band Chthonic. The Lamb of God frontman previously described his role as "an exaggerated, rock star version of himself," who participates in "a bit of civil unrest" (read: a riot) alongside the film's main character. Now we're finally getting a chance to watch him in action in a new trailer for Tshiong, which hits Taiwanese theaters December 29th. Sadly, we don't catch a glimpse of Mr. Blythe's undoubtedly sick rioting skills — but we do get to see him get lost in translation, which proves entertaining in its own right.
KONTAK PERKASA FUTURES - Blythe became involved with the film through Chthonic, who he's performed with in the past, telling EMP Rock Invasion (per Blabbermouth) in 2015 that he and the band members bonded over their shared political ideals. "My friends in this band Chthonic ... they're pretty political: they're very pro Taiwanese independence," he said. "Because China still claims ownership of Taiwan, basically, and that goes all the way back to Chinese civil war, when Chiang Kai-shek and Mao Zedong were fighting. My friends are very pro Taiwanese independence, and I don't blame them. I think every country should have the ability to govern itself." "Freddy [Lim], their singer, e-mailed me one day," Blythe continued, "and he was just, like, 'Hey, man. We're making an action movie. Do you wanna be in it?' And I'm, like, 'Yeah.' I didn't ask him what it was about or anything. I'm just, like, 'Yeah. Yeah, I do.' I mean, I obviously didn't do it for the money — I didn't make much money — but I did it 'cause it's awesome to be in a kung fu movie." This isn't Blythe's first time on the silver screen: He also had a minor role in the 2009 independent horror film The Graves as a murderous reverend's fearsome enforcer. (Spoiler alert: he gets impaled in the face.) Source : revolvermag.com PT KONTAK PERKASA - To get the company ready to build the Model 3, Tesla had to spend a lot of money. That was to be expected. After all, making cars is expensive, especially when a company knows it will have to fulfill several hundred thousand pre-orders right out of the gate. But the rate that Tesla spent money over the last year is still shocking. PT KONTAK PERKASA - Bloomberg reports that over the past 12 months, Tesla burned through $480,000 per hour. That works out to about $8,000 per minute or $133.33 every second. That’s so much money that Elon Musk could spend all day lighting $100 bills on fire one at a time, and he still might not be able to keep up with a cash burn like that. Unfortunately for Tesla, it only has so much cash on hand. And if it keeps spending money at the rate it has been, it will run out of cash in August of next year. In fact, according to Bloomberg‘s calculations, Tesla will run out of cash on Monday, August 6 at 2:17 a.m. EST at this rate.
“Whether they can last another 10 months or a year, he needs money, and quickly,” said Kevin Tynan, a senior analyst at Bloomberg Intelligence. Part of the problem is that Tesla hasn’t been able to scale up production of the Model 3 as quickly as it thought it would. At the end of the third quarter, only 260 units had been built, way short of Tesla’s original goal of building 1,500 per week. And while initial reports suggest that reservation holders aren’t jumping ship just yet, that may change if the delays continue. Until Tesla gets Model 3 production back on track, its options to raise cash appear limited. Assuming it pre-sells all 1,000 Founders Series Roadsters, that would give it an extra $250 million. But with a burn rate around $1 billion per quarter, the Roadster money won’t last long. Selling bonds could work, but Tesla already did that back in August, and Bloomberg doesn’t believe there will be as much interest the second time around. Basically, Tesla really needs to find a way to start cranking out Model 3s.

But did you know it's the kind of strength training you do that matters? When it comes to how effectively you're actually building muscle strength and mass, your chosen speed is everything, says the Journal of Applied Physiology. KONTAK PERKASA FUTURES - Researchers compared the results of super short explosive exercises compared to more sustained contractions during longer moves. Specifically, one group of healthy young men did isometric knee extensions using short, explosive movements and the same amount of weight (you could compare this to jump squats, high knees, or the explosive moves in this calorie-torching tabata workout). Another group performed the knee extensions using more sustained, slow contractions, progressively upping the torque (much like those grueling leg presses you do with heavier weights). Both groups completed 40 reps of each exercise three times a week for three months. The researchers found that the short-burst contractions (only about 1 second each) were a much more efficient way to build strength. But if it's mass you're looking for, slow and sustained movements are more effective at building up those fit-girl muscles. Which training method you use totally depends on your goals. If you're looking to bulk up and create definition, stick with sustained moves like slow and steady squats presses or weighted leg presses. If you're looking to get faster as you train for your next race, throw in some explosive squats and box jumps like these 5 Exercises That Sculpt Strong Legs (and Glutes Too!) Better yet, do a balanced mix of both. Source : fitnessmagazine.com |
