Abstract: A pair of interconnected vertical solar arrays at two preselected lunar sites are provided. A cable transmits power between one of the vertical solar arrays and the other vertical solar array, so that one of the vertical solar arrays can send collected energy to other vertical solar array, when the other vertical solar array is not collecting energy, to maintain the temperature of the other vertical solar array. A power storage device receives solar energy from the vertical solar arrays. A charging interface distributes energy to one or more lunar devices on the lunar surface. A landing vehicle has a payload thereon for carrying at least one of the pair of interconnected vertical solar arrays, the cable, the power storage device, and the charging interface.

Abstract: The disclosed implementations provide a process to streamline in-application purchasing of unlockable content. The disclosed implementations can determine an amount of resources with a virtual currency package on an application store, present a selectable option to purchase the package in real currency, and provide access to the unlockable content stored on a server associated with the developer of the application in response to selecting the package and payment of the real currency amount.

Abstract: Techniques to share media files through messaging are described. An apparatus may comprise a processor and a memory communicatively coupled to the processor. The memory may store a message application that when executed by the processor is operative to communicate a message and a message attachment comprising a media file at different time intervals using different transports. The message may have a link comprising a reference to a discoverable storage location for the media file. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: A game interface is presented at a plurality of client devices during an early phase of a synchronized gaming schedule shared among the client devices. An application program residing at each of the client devices generates and presents, during an intermediate phase of the synchronized gaming schedule following the early phase, an individual results summary. Individual results information is received from each client device over the communications network indicating a comparison of one or more puzzle-submissions by a player of that client device to the one or more puzzle-answers of the answer key. The individual results information received from each of the client devices is aggregated to obtain aggregated results information during the intermediate phase. The aggregated results information is transmitted to each of the client devices over the communications network for presentation at the client devices during a late phase of the synchronized gaming schedule.

Abstract: A game interface having multiple game-object locations is constructed by removing a remaining game-object from a pool of game-objects and loading that removed game-object into an empty game-object location for each of the game-object locations. A candidate game interface that is fully loaded with game-objects is compared to a rule set. A candidate game interface is rejected if it violates the rule set. If a candidate game interface does not violate the rule set, the candidate game interface is deployed to a gaming environment as an approved game interface.

Abstract: Word-commonness is identified for each word of a set of words of a language within a corpus of electronic documents. The set of words are sorted according to the word-commonness of each word relative to the other words of the set to obtain a sorted list. The sorted list defines an order of the words of the set that is based, at least in part, on the word-commonness of each word relative to the other words of the set.
