We live in a computer world full of file formats. Whether we are talking about images, videos, or text documents, there are dozens of file types for each, and there are new ones added every year to applications.

How To: Play Almost Any PSP Game on Your Android Phone
If you really want to play Gran Turismo or Castlevania on the go, Sony's PlayStation Portable is a great way to do it.

The PSP had a good 10 years before being discontinued, and your Android can pick up the slack now.
How To: Unlock Your LG V20's Bootloader (US Variant)
LG, like many other OEMs, usually locks down their bootloaders with an airtight seal. There are a few good reasons for this, the big one being that an unlocked bootloader technically compromises some device security measures. LG would also argue that unlocking your bootloader is absolutely pointless, as having it locked will not hinder normal device usage, which is kinda true.

News: 'Nothing Says Coffee Like 6 in the Morning'—Waking Up Like a Gilmore Girl
Where you lead, Gilmore Girls, I will follow.
