Notes about the world around us and a personal knowledge base — Antonio Nemcd’s blog
If your kid plays LEGO NEXO Knights (the MERLOK 2.0 app) on a tablet or phone, sooner or later they will want more NEXO Powers.
One way to get them is to buy LEGO NEXO KNIGHTS sets and scan the code on the box.
LEGO obviously prefers this option, but it’s expensive for a normal family budget — LEGO sets are great, but they cost a lot.
There is a simple free alternative: NEXO Knights power codes.
Continuing the topic of Ingress passcodes, I decided to give a pretty good passcode its own post.
The passcode gives items according to your level.
In autumn 2015 I wrote about a guy who lost 64 kg playing Ingress.
Less than six months ago, 1,800 km seemed like something distant and mysterious 
From level 7 (sometimes earlier) Ingress agents start running short of inventory — mods, bursters, Ultra Strikes — and that’s where glyphs come to the rescue
Ingress glyphs are mysterious symbols, each with its own shape and name (sometimes even several names).
An example of a level 6 or 7 portal hack — you need to enter 4 glyphs.
“Helicopters” in Ingress — GPS spoofers — are a very bad thing. They’re cheaters. Sometimes you don’t notice them; they do their dark deeds in secret and sell in-game items (bursters, mods, resonators, capsules, JARVIS viruses and so on). That’s still tolerable — let people buy if they have the money and are too lazy to farm portals.
But sometimes spoofers do real damage to the factions (usually both their own and the other one). It’s often very visible during field operations, when an anchor portal is taken down by a spoofer right after the field is built, or, the other way around, a spoofer builds the field. People report them, accounts get banned, and the cycle repeats.
But look what else can be sold besides inventory Keys to any portal!
So if you want a field and no cross-links are in the way, you just buy keys and throw links. Or you accidentally burned a key to an achievement portal and don’t feel like going back, or it’s too far (in another country, say) — buy a key and you’re done.
