Game Informations Developers: Pixel Reef Release Date: March 24, 2020 Genre: Adventure Horror. Platforms: PlayStation 4. Part puzzle game, part god game, all extremely weird, Paper Beast is unlike anything I've played before. A dedicated VR experience, it puts you at the centre of a unique wildlife simulation where the animals are not flesh and fur, but origami creatures roaming a harsh desert world. It's a fascinating and surprisingly emotional experience, albeit one that only scratches the surface of its potential. Paper Beast is broken up into two distinct halves, starting with its story mode. The precise nature of that story is open to interpretation, but your fundamental role in the game is that of a fickle deity, acting varyingly as a helping hand and an agent of chaos to the animals roaming its world. The game's eight chapters are divided into several individual scenes, each of which comprises a small puzzle about moving the game's critters from A to B. And what critters they are. The beasts of Paper Beasts are marvels of VR design. One of your earliest encounters is with a shaggy, porcupine-like animal with plumes of paper streamers flowing from its back. Watching this scruffy paper blob snuffle and shuffle past you at waist-height is delightful, like encountering a friendly dog on an evening stroll. Later on, you'll meet horse-like creatures called Papyvoruses that love to snack on screwed up bits of paper, strange crustaceans that obsessively roll up sand into balls like dung-beetles, and even a towering cardboard elephant. The varying shapes and sizes of these animals makes for an impressive showcase of VR's unique scale and depth. Yet there's more to these creatures than their arresting look. Each beast has its own set of behaviours you'll need to learn to solve the game's puzzles. With the Papyvoruses (Papyvori?), for example, you can pick up their favourite snack and use it to lure them to different locations. You might to do this to help them avoid predators, or to guide them through a network of caverns where their fragile bodies are protected from the wind. Puzzles often combine these behaviours with the added ability to mani[CENSORED]te the terrain around you. You can pick up the sand-balls formed by the crab creatures and toss them onto the ground, creating sand pathways other animals can use to navigate across water or up slippery slopes. What results is a sequence of dynamic environmental conundrums. The solution is always fixed, but the way you can mani[CENSORED]te both the animals and the terrain is not. You're constantly pushing and pulling the world around you to suit your needs. Working with AI animals does have its downsides, however. They'll often require encouragement to get them to the right spot, while Paper Beast's controls are unusually imprecise for a VR game, meaning that your solutions are rarely perfect. Narrative-wise, Paper Beast is as strange as Death Stranding, although unlike Kojima's delivery-sim, Paper Beast doesn't exhaustively explain absolutely everything that happens. Quite the opposite. During your time with Paper Beast, you'll encounter a spectacular animal parade, float a giant radio over a glacial crevasse filled with sticky tendrils that latch onto anything nearby, and ride a hot-air-balloon that grows out of a tree. None of this is given any explicit reason or context. At one point it starts raining inky letters from the sky, a torrential alphabet that stains the ground black and threatens to drown the papery creatures caught beneath it. After a while it stops, and you move on. It's as bizarre as it is captivating. While Paper Beast is (ironically) reluctant to spell out its message, the mood of each scene is always clear. Paper Beast is a largely chill experience, but its tone ranges from celebration to melancholy and even tragedy. Watching Papyvoruses struggle against the game's powerful winds, only to inevitably fold and be tossed into the air like sad animal kites, is undeniably moving. One especially unsettling puzzle involves connecting Papyvoruses to scuttling turtle-like creatures called "Densities" that can withstand the game's virtual gales. But the densities are slow, lumbering creatures. To encourage them to speed up, you can toss their young down a mountain slope, resulting in the parents throwing themselves after them. They don't get hurt, mercifully, but that didn't stop me from feeling like a baby-yeeting bastard. Paper Beast's story mode is littered with memorable moments, but I always felt constrained by the physical limits of its vignettes. It takes a long time to spool up mechanically, and it ends just as you're getting to grips with it. Fortunately, Paper Beast is also packaged with a literal sandbox mode that lets you turn a desert wilderness into your own virtual wildlife preserve. You can fill lake beds and dried-up rivers with water, place plants and animals, and even conjure rainstorms. Particularly striking is the zoom system. Pushing the touch controllers toward one another lets you grow to god-like size, able oversee the entire map and sculpt it like a landscape gardener. The sandbox mode demonstrates how deep Paper Beast's simulation runs. Plants propagate naturally, while animals exist in a clear food-chain with prey, predators, and apex predators all intermingling. It's fantastic to watch in motion, but it's also fairly pointless, resembling a prototype for a fantastic god-game that for some reason didn't quite work out and so was made into an optional mode. This is my main issue with Paper Beast—it feels like two halves of a game that should be one cohesive whole. The game is directed by Eric Chahi, whose other credits include Another World and Heart of Darkness. The game it reminds me most of, however, is Chahi's From Dust. Like From Dust, Paper Beast is visually spectacular and systemically clever, but it struggles with the intersection between dynamic god-game and more prescribed puzzler. Whereas From Dust tried to reconcile these two sides of its personality in a single experience, Paper Beast splits them apart. Both sides work in their limited contexts, but they each feel like a tantalising taste of a grander experience that ultimately never transpires.

DeepCool GamerStorm DQ-M V2L 850W Power Supply Review The DeepCool GamerStorm DQ-M V2L 850W uses a new platform from Channel Well Technology (CWT), which has the codename GPX. In essence, GPX platform is a downgraded GPU design (which we have seen in the Bitfenix Whisper line and the older DeepCool GamerStorm models). Its goal is to offer high enough performance at a lower price, meaning that it doesn't use the same high-quality parts that the GPU design utilizes. With higher quality FETs and a stronger boost diode, the GamerStorm DQ-M V2L 850W could be included in our Best Power Supplies article, but performance alone isn't enough. The design needs to be reliable enough to last for years to come, even under tough operating conditions, and it should also retain its good performance over time, because even PSUs age. DeepCool's new power supply line looks interesting, but it doesn't pose any threat to the highly po[CENSORED]r Corsair RMx and Seasonic Focus Plus Gold lines. DeepCool decided to expand its GamerStorm brand with a new PSU line, with the codename DQ-M V2L. This line consists of three members with capacities ranging from 650W to 850W. Compared to the original DQ-M line, which is based on the top-notch CWT GPU platform, the DQ-M V2L uses the inferior CWT GPX platform with some modifications, which allow for higher performance and increased reliability. The latter is depicted on the ten-year warranty that supports these new PSU models. Finally, all DQ-M V2L units feature a single +12V rail design, contrary to the DQ-M members, which had several +12V rails. The GamerStorm DQ-M V2L 850W is the flagship of the line, featuring enough power (and connectors) to support a potent gaming system. It is a fully modular power supply with regular dimensions. A few years ago a 850W PSU with 160mm depth would be considered compact, but nowadays, we find similar capacity PSUs with only 140mm depth. With a quick look at the specifications, we wonder why DeepCool didn't use a larger fan (e.g., 140mm instead of 120mm), since the chassis is large enough to accommodate it. A larger fan can provide the same airflow with a smaller one, but at lower speeds so its noise output will be lower.

Scientists introduce Raman-activated cell sorter for high-throughput discovery of enzymes Enzymes are molecules that catalyze metabolism. Discovering and mining enzymes, such as those producing oils or fixing carbon dioxide, have been a key mission of the biotechnology industry. However, this can be very slow and tedious. To tackle this key challenge, Chinese scientists have now developed a flow mode Raman-activated cell sorter (RACS), called FlowRACS, to support high-throughput discovery of enzymes and their cell factories at the precision of just one microbial cell. The study was published in Science Advances on August 7. Microbial cells and their enzyme products mediate many biological processes. The mining of useful enzymes and microbial cells that produce them has dated back nearly a century. However, such endeavors can be very slow and difficult due to the tiny size of microbes—1000 times smaller than a human cell. Moreover, most of the microbial cells cannot be readily cultured—for this reason, microbiologists call them "biological dark matter." To address these challenges, a team of scientists from Single-Cell Center in Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology (QIBEBT), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), introduced a novel instrument called FlowRACS. "This is a flow-mode Raman-activated Cell Sorter that can sort microbial cells and enzymes they produced, based on Single-cell Raman Spectrum and in a high-throughput manner," said Prof. Ma Bo, Deputy Director of Single-Cell Center and a senior author of the study. Single-cell Raman spectra can reveal the metabolic function of a cell, such as the kind of oils produced or the rate of carbon dioxide fixed, without destroying the cell. Based on these signals, cells are sorted in RACS. If the cells are sitting still during sorting, this would be easier, but very slow. To speed up the sorting, cells can be lined up and moved rapidly through a spectrum detection point one by one. However, such flow-mode RACS can be much more difficult due to the very small size of microbial cells and the weak Raman signal. To improve the process, researchers applied positive dielectrophoresis (pDEP), which can capture or mobilize particles. This allows trapping fast-moving single microbial cells, processing them precisely yet rapidly through a Raman detection point to recognize those cells that produce particular enzymes or metabolites, and then packaging cells into droplets. In the end, the droplets that harbor target cells are sorted. In this pDEP Raman-activated droplet sorting, or pDEP-RADS, the cells do not require culturing, labeling or invasive action in order to be sorted and identified at a high speed. Diacylglycerol acyltransferases, or DGATs, are enzymes that produce triacylglycerols (TAGs) which are main ingredient of human and animal fats as well as plant oils. However, traditionally, screening of DGATs has been extremely tedious. For each sample, culture of DGAT-producing cells can take days and subsequent analysis of the cells for oil ingredients can also take days. Using FlowRACS, the researchers screened yeasts that express DGAT candidates for its TAG content and profile, at about 120 cells per minute, equivalent to 120 of the traditional "samples" per minute. They also sorted cells for the degree of unsaturation, a key characteristic of TAG that determines its nutritional value, with about 82% accuracy and at 40 cells per minute. A single run of FlowRACS, which takes just 10 minutes, revealed all previously reported DGAT variants. In contrast, discovering and characterizing these enzymes would have either taken months for culture-based methods, or simply not been possible due to insufficient sensitivity of fluorescence-activated cell sorting. "Such culture-free, label-free and non-invasive sorting of enzyme activity in vivo can save time, consumable and labor by one to two orders of magnitude, as compared to conventional approaches," said, Dr. Wang Xixian, first author of the paper. "To our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of RACS for enzyme discovery," added Prof. Xu Jian, Director of Single-Cell Center and the other senior author of the study, "The birth of FlowRACS greatly expands the application of RACS. The community is now equipped with a new instrument for the discovery and mining of the 'biological dark matter' for not just cells but enzymes, both wonderful gifts from Mother Nature."

College vs. University in the U.S.: What's the Difference? THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN a college and a university in the U.S. may not always be apparent to students who grew up in other parts of the world. The word "college" doesn't have the same meaning in every country, which can create confusion for prospective international students interested in studying in the U.S. "In Spanish, 'colegio' means high school," says George DaPonte, director of international admissions at the University of Tampa in Florida, citing one example. For this and other reasons, some prospective students may pass over U.S. schools that have "college" instead of "university" in their name, admissions experts say. By doing so, students could miss out on a school that may have been a good fit. While some four-year postsecondary institutions in the U.S. have "college" in their name and others have "university," both types grant undergraduate degrees. Here are some things to keep in mind when researching U.S. institutions that call themselves colleges and those that identify as universities. What Is a College? Oftentimes schools with "college" in their name are smaller institutions that emphasize undergraduate education, Johanna Fishbein, head of university advising at the United World College of South East Asia's Dover Campus, an international school, said by email. This is not a strict rule, since there are a number of exceptions. Some colleges, known as liberal arts colleges, give students an education in a broad range of academic areas as opposed to having them specialize early in one particular subject. Since liberal arts colleges are uncommon outside the U.S., prospective international students aren't always familiar with them, says Carly Mankus, senior assistant dean of international admission at Franklin and Marshall College, a liberal arts school in Pennsylvania. Prospective students may also sometimes mistakenly believe liberal arts institutions only focus on the humanities, admissions experts say. But many of these schools offer degrees in science fields too. What Is a University? Many schools with "university" in their name are larger institutions that offer a variety of both undergraduate and graduate degree programs. Public universities are some of the most sizable schools, sometimes enrolling tens of thousands of students. These schools are also highly committed to producing research. But it is a misconception that all schools with "university" in their name are big, says Chelsea Keeney, assistant director of international student recruitment at the University of Minnesota—Twin Cities. Some are relatively small, such as Marymount California University, which had a total enrollment of 985 students in fall 2016, per U.S. News data. Also, not all universities are public. Private universities include, among many institutions, some of the Ivy League schools, like Princeton University. Sometimes adding to the confusion for international students, Keeney says, is the fact that large universities are often made up of smaller divisions called colleges. Each of these colleges has a specific academic focus, such as business, engineering or social work.

Hennessey Lamborghini Urus Hits The Dyno, Shows Big Power I believe we've already established that the Lamborghini Urus isn't a slow machine. You might say that it isn't purely Lambo with its modified Audi 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 beating under its hood, but you can't deny that this hulking SUV is powerful beyond typical. On paper, the Urus makes a maximum of 641 horsepower (478 kilowatts) and 627 pound-feet (850 Newton-meters) of torque. With that said, Hennessey Performance wants to tune it anyway through its HPE750 performance upgrade, and here's a preview of that in the works. Featuring the addition of downpipes and new tuning, this Urus gets on the dyno to see the actual numbers. Beyond the numbers, the initial tune sounds really great. Here it is in stock form, which was benchmarked by the Texas tuner towards the end of last month. The test returned promising numbers for this Urus. At the wheels, the super SUV sent 620 hp (462 kW) and 730 lb-ft (990 Nm) of torque. In comparison, the previous dyno test of its stock form registered 546 hp (407 kW) and 606 lb-ft (822 Nm) of pull at the wheels – a difference of 74 hp and 124 lb-ft. this isn't the final tune for this Urus in the hands of Hennessey. We're expecting more from the company despite this initial upgrade already looking (and sounding) awesome. Now, if 620 horses aren't enough, several tuners have already laid their hands on the Lambo SUV. The Mansory Venatus has 838 hp (625 kW) on tap, while another German tuner that goes by the name Keyvany was able to extract 820 hp (611 kW). Or you could wait for the Urus ST-X, which will get a significant weight reduction of at 550 kilograms (1,212 pounds). The track-focused Urus ST-X was reported to make a public debut at the 2020 Lamborghini Super Trofeo World Final, which will happen from October 31 to November 1 in Misano, Italy. That schedule was announced before the pandemic, though, so we're yet to hear if there are any changes.

What to do during quarantine: 4 fun ideas to keep you busy at home this summer It's finally summer, and while coronavirus lockdowns are lifting in many states, many of your usual means of entertainment are probably still off the menu. At some point, even the most introverted of us are going to go stir crazy now that it's so nice outside -- especially if you've got kids cooped up inside. The good news is, the internet is responding with more options for social gatherings than ever before, including free online concerts (more below) and ways to create your own sense of community even if you're living alone. We've rustled up some of our favorite ways to stay entertained if you're self-quarantined or practicing social distancing in the warmer weeks to come. Stream a concert, opera or TV show Since the US government has encouraged social distancing to slow the spread of the illness back in March, performers have been trying to find a way to share their art. Artists such as Pink, Coldplay's Chris Martin, Keith Urban, Death Cab for Cutie's Ben Gibbard, Rob Thomas and John Legend have streamed live concerts on Instagram and YouTube -- many of which are still available to watch. Go fishing in Animal Crossing: New Horizons Animal Crossing: New Horizons came out on Nintendo Switch on March 20. Players all over the world have since immersed themselves in all aspects of peaceful island life -- Tom Nook included. The game's social aspect has made social distancing a bit easier. Players have even taken the game to another level and begun decorating their homes to look like a tropical island getaway. Simple in-game actions like growing fruit, planting flowers, exploring, designing rooms and spending time with friends can be comforting. Plus, an update to Animal Crossing: New Horizons is coming on Friday, adding the ability to swim, dive and collect sea creatures. Take a digital museum tour Thanks to technology, spending the day at a museum is still an option, even if you can't leave the house. Travel and Leisure has a list of 12 museums that offer virtual tours. You can check out famous locations in the US or abroad in Seoul, Berlin, Florence and more. You can also get your art fix with the Google Arts and Culture app for iPhone and Android. The app lets you view paintings in AR, read up on masterpieces and find your famous painting doppelganger. Don't forget to see what you can find in Google Maps if you're in the mood to explore. The Georgia Aquarium and the Monterey Bay Aquarium have turned on webcams so you can still watch otters, fish and penguins without the crowds. Do some summer cleaning Some of us reserve cleaning for weekends, but if you're stuck at home this summer, you've likely got some extra time on your hands. CNET has a list of tips if you want to sanitize your house, your phone, your car and even the dryer vent and the kitchen sink. Plus, learn how to clean smarter, not harder, how Alexa can help you clean and all the places you shouldn't forget to clean. While you're cleaning, don't forget to tidy your tech, too.

Bihar COVID-19 tally crosses 75k, death toll reaches 419 Bihar was jolted by close to 4,000 fresh Covid cases on Saturday which caused its tally to shoot past 75,000 on a day when the state also conducted a record number of tests and reported 19 casualties. According to the state health departments bulletin, the number of fresh cases was 3996 which left the tally climbing to 75,786 while the death toll stood at 419. Besides, 75,426 samples were tested in the last 24 hours. Of the new casualties, Patna accounted for six followed by two each in Gaya and Vaishali and one each in Araria, Aurangabad, Bhojpur, Kaimur, Katihar, Supaul, Muzaffarpur, Nalanda and East Champaran. Patna also accounts for the maximum number of 77 COVID 19 deaths so far in the state, followed by Bhagalpur (34), Gaya (28), Rohtas (23), Nalanda (21), Munger (19), Muzaffarpur and Bhojpur (16 each) and East Champaran (15). The spike witnessed on the day, the biggest for a single day so far, was due to cases reported across all 38 districts though significant numbers were reported from Patna (534), Begusarai (210), Katihar (193), Vaishali (160), Samastipur (147), Buxar (131) and Nalanda (120). Altogether seventeen districts reported cases in excess of 100. In terms of the total number of confirmed cases so far, Patna remains at the top with a tally of 12,702 followed by Bhagalpur (3353), Muzaffarpur (3234), Nalanda (2999), Rohtas (2855), Gaya (2790) and Begusarai (2579). The entire state is in throes of the pandemic which has grown at an explosive rate in the past one month. Only six districts are now left with a tally of under 1,000. The least affected district Sheohar has reported 404 cases and one death. On the flip side, 48,673 people have recovered after testing positive for the dreaded coronavirus. The state has a recovery rate of 64.72 per cent, more than 10 per cent drop since a month ago on account of more fresh cases cropping up, on almost all days, than the number of people recovering during the period. The total number of tests conducted, since the state was first hit by the pandemic in March, is 9.46 lakh.
