Foxconn has been promising to build a factory in Wisconsin.
It again says that it will be ready this year.
This time it’s from founder Terry Gou.

It’s like a cruel joke.

Foxconn founder Terry Gou seems to be of the opinion that his company will indeed have a factory up and running in Wisconsin by the end of the year, according to a Bloomberg report.

Gou promised to have the plant operational at some point in 2020, something that seems impossible given the fact that while the land has been cleared for the factory, building is yet to commence.

Foxconn’s Terry Gou pledged to begin production at a long-delayed electronics plant in Wisconsin sometime this year, kick-starting a signature U.S. project that’s expected to play a pivotal role in expanding the billionaire’s manufacturing empire.

The Foxconn founder said the factory will be up and running in 2020 and drive his company’s vision of manufacturing components for fifth-generation wireless and arti…

Professions in Harry Potter: Wizards Unite aren’t set in stone, but switching may have consequences you haven’t thought about.

Once you reach level six in Harry Potter: Wizards Unite, you have the option to choose a Profession — Auror, Magizoologist, or Professor. Each Profession has a different skill tree and is strong against certain enemies you find in Wizarding Challenges, meaning their play styles are slightly different. If you aren’t happy with the profession you chose, or you just feel like leveling up more than one profession, you can always switch at any time. Here’s a quick lesson in switching professions and what happens when you do.

How to switch professions in Harry Potter Wizards Unite

You can switch professions at any time by heading to the Professions menu.

Keep your Apple Watch screen scratch and scuff proof with a tempered glass screen protector. Even though your watch may not snag, bumps, and bruises happen during daily use. It’s always best to play it safe. The Apple Watch’s screen may seem small enough that is won’t easily scratch, but wearing it on your wrist every day means it’s prone to damage sooner or later!

Best Overall: JETech Tempered Glass Screen Protector (38mm)

If you’re a minimalist and only want your Apple Watch’s screen protected with no extra bulk or fuss, you can’t go wrong with this option from JETech. These 0.2mm-thick tempered glass screen protectors are not going to provide full, edge-to-edge protection. Still, these are the easiest to install — with included sticker guides to help with placement and wipes to deal with fingerprints and dust — and are quite serviceable.

Pros:

Very thin
Inexpensive

Cons:

Not compatible with Apple Watch Series 4
