Cole loves his Twitch streams By Mitch Waddon   9 September, 2021 7:00 AM New All Elite Wrestling signing Adam Cole says he has no plans to stop doing his Twitch streams. Cole has become a regular streamer on Twitch in the last 18 months and a report from Fightful Select a couple of weeks ago suggested that retaining his Twitch was a 'non-negotiable' for the former NXT Champion in his contract talks with WWE. Now part of AEW, Cole was asked if he plans on continuing to stream as regularly as he has done on the platform, something he has now confirmed. Speaking during the post-AEW All Out media scrum on Sunday, Cole said: "Twitch is something that I had kinda started over the pandemic. It was something that I had wanted to do for a long time but I didn’t really take the time to teach myself, and then when that happened and I had a bunch of time on my hands, I was like, ‘OK, no choice. No excuse, I have to do it.’ "And initially, I did do it because I really like video games. Anyone who knows me knows I’m really passionate about that. But then…

The idli-dosa batter sold by a Bengaluru-based food start-up has been at the receiving end of malicious Twitter propaganda. It began when a user, Srinivasa S.G., took to Twitter to allege that iD used cattle bones and calf rennet in its many products, including the idli-dosa batter. “All the Chennai stores or supermarkets are selling the Idli/dosa paste produced and marketed by iD Foods!! Do you know they mix cows bones & calf rennet to make volume of the batter?”.Srinivasa wrote on the popular micro-blogging platform. Srinivasa's tweet, shared widely across social media including WhatsApp, created quite a furore. Meanwhile, tweets to Srinivasa, who proclaims to be a "proud Hindu/Indian", asking him to verify the source of this information went unanswered. They were soon drowned by inflammatory attacks on the company and its owners. iD Fresh Food termed the allegations as "baseless and fake propaganda" aimed at undermining the trust of millions of its customers. “We would like to clearly specify that iD uses only vegetarian ingredients to make its products. iD Idli-dosa batter is made from rice, urad dal, fenugreek and RO-water only, which are 100 per cent natural and vegetarian agri-commodities. There are no animal extracts used in…

Changing operating systems today can be super hard, especially since most companies don’t provide a lot of help when it comes to data migration to a new OS. However, WhatsApp data has now become one of the most important assets of a user, and thus, needs to be preserved even when you change your smartphone. To help with this situation, the company is looking to facilitate migration from iOS to Android (Samsung) devices with a new feature. This is a step up from the current situation, which requires users to let go of their chat history while moving to a different operating system. In order to migrate your WhatsApp chat history from your iPhone to your new Samsung phone, you need to turn on your Samsung device and connect to your iPhone by cable when the prompt comes. Then follow the instructions given by the Samsung Smart Switch, and when the prompt comes, scan the QR code displayed on the screen. Following this, tap “Start” on the iPhone and wait for the process to complete, and continue setting up the new Samsung phone. Open WhatsApp once you reach the home screen and log in using the same number on your…

A jealous boyfriend has admitted attempting to choke his partner after he discovered she was still in contact with an old flame. Jan Bober, 19, assaulted his long-term girlfriend upon finding a social media message to her ex on her phone while the pair were at a party in the Granite City on September 27, 2020. Aberdeen Sheriff Court heard how friends had to come to the woman’s aid to free her after Bober placed her in a choke hold. He later told his victim he was “going to kill her” as he continued to physically and verbally attack her in the street – resulting in her having to run to a neighbour’s house for help. Friend’s stepped in as woman struggled to breath Fiscal depute Felicity Merson told the court that Bober had become enraged after he noticed a Snapchat message from his partner’s ex-boyfriend. He put his arm around her neck and squeezed her neck by placing the woman in a choke hold. Friends noticed that she was struggling to breathe and “physically intervened” to separate the couple before Bober then attempted to choke her again. As the woman walked home after the party she became aware that…
