MRDIMMs (multi-ranked buffered DIMMs) could be the standard among buffered DIMMs by 203x. In addition, AMD(opens in new tab) has voiced its commitment at MemCon 2023 to help push JEDEC's MRDIMM open standard, which will significantly boost bandwidth over standard DDR5 DIMMs. It has been a constant struggle to feed processors with the necessary memory bandwidth as core counts continue to rise. It's one of the reasons why AMD and Intel have shifted over to DDR5 memory on their mainstream processors, such as Ryzen 7000 and Raptor Lake. So you can imagine the challenge in the data center segment with AMD's EPYC Genoa and Intel's Sapphire Rapids Xeon chips pushing up to 96 cores and 60 cores, respectively. It gets even more complicated when you slot these multi-core EPYC and Xeon monsters in a 2P or sometimes a 4P configuration. The result is a gargantuan motherboard with an insane number of memory slots. Unfortunately, motherboards can only get so big, and processors keep debuting with more cores. Existing solutions exist, such as unique interfaces like the Compute Express Link (CXL) or High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) formats. MRDIMM aims to be another option for vendors to mitigate the difficulties associated with DRAM speed scaling. MRDIMM's objective is to double the bandwidth with existing DDR5 DIMMs. The concept is simple: combine two DDR5 DIMMs to deliver twice the data rate to the host. Furthermore, the design permits simultaneous access to both ranks. For example, you combine two DDR5 DIMMs at 4,400 MT/s, but the output results in 8,800 MT/s. According to the presentation, a special data buffer or mux combines the transfers from each rank, effectively converting the two DDRs (double data rate) into a single QDR (quad data rate). First-generation MRDIMMs will offer data transfer rates of up to 8,800 MT/s. After that, JEDEC expects MRDIMMs to improve gradually, hitting 12,800 MT/s and, subsequently, 17,600 MT/s. However, we won't likely see third-generation MRDIMMs until after 2030, so it's a long project. In conjunction with SK hynix and Renesas, Intel developed Multiplexer Combined Ranks (MCR) DIMMs based on a similar concept to MRDIMM. According to retired engineer chiakokhua(opens in new tab), AMD was preparing a comparable proposition called HBDIMM. Some differences exist; however, no public materials are available to compare MCR DIMM and HBDIMM. The South Korean DRAM manufacturer expects the first MCR DIMMs to offer transfer rates over 8,000 MT/s, so they are comparable in performance to the first generation of MRDIMM offerings. Intel recently demoed a Granite Rapids Xeon chip with the new MCR DIMMs. The dual-socket system put out a memory bandwidth equivalent to 1.5 TB/s. There were 12 MCR DIMMs clocked at DDR5-8800. The roadmap for MRDIMMs is vague since it doesn't show when we can expect first-generation MRDIMMs. However, Granite Rapids and competing AMD EPYC Turin (Zen 5) processors will arrive in 2024. Therefore, it's reasonable to expect MCR DIMMs to be available by then since Granite Rapids can use them. Although that hasn't been any official confirmation, it's plausible that Turin could leverage MRDIMMs, given AMD's recent pledge. Therefore, MRDIMMs could potentially arrive in 2024 as well.

The Samsung Galaxy S23 line may have only come to market in February 2023, but that hasn't stopped us looking ahead to what the Samsung Galaxy S24 might bring to the mobile table next year. Samsung’s latest flagships are three of the best phones money can buy right now (read our Samsung Galaxy S23 review, Samsung Galaxy S23 Plus review and Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra review to find out why), and early signs suggest that the next few entries in the brand’s po[CENSORED]r S series will continue to push boundaries for mobile performance, photography, and battery life. Naturally, we’re still a while away from the release of the Samsung Galaxy S24 and its siblings, but we’ve nonetheless put together this one-stop-shop guide to all the latest news and rumors about Samsung’s next Galaxy S phones. Given that Samsung only just lifted the lid on its Galaxy S23 line, we’re not expecting to see the brand’s Galaxy S24 smartphones released until 2024. That said, we can make an educated guess as to when these devices might appear. Samsung debuted its Galaxy S23 phones at Galaxy Unpacked in February, with the Galaxy S23, S23 Plus and S23 Ultra all going on sale from February 17. The Samsung Galaxy S22 range was revealed around the same time a year prior, so we’d expect next year’s Galaxy Unpacked event – which will likely fall in either January or February – to play host to the launch of the Galaxy S24 line. It’s worth noting that we don’t yet know whether Samsung will again release three Galaxy models in the S24 line – a vanilla S24, an S24 Plus and an S24 Ultra. The company has stuck with a three-pronged release strategy every year since 2020, but The Elec(opens in new tab) reports that Samsung may be preparing to ditch the Plus variant due to “polarization in the flagship product market” and the “stagnation of the entire smartphone market”. It goes without saying, but since we don’t even know which phones will definitely be arriving in the Samsung Galaxy S24 line, there’s been no word yet on Galaxy S24 pricing. Using this year’s Galaxy S23 phones as a marker, though, we can safely assume that the vanilla S24, S24 Plus (which may not be arriving at all) and S24 Ultra will cost at least $799.99 / £849 / AU$1,349, $999.99/ £1,049 / AU$1,649, and $1,199.99 / £1,249 / AU$1,949, respectively. If The Elec’s aforementioned claims about the lack of a Galaxy S24 Plus are to be believed, then you’ll likely have to decide between the Galaxy S24’s 6.1-inch display and the Galaxy S24 Ultra’s 6.8-inch screen (that’s assuming these phones adopt the same display sizes as their respective predecessors). Unless Samsung rocks the boat, we’d expect the vanilla model to stick with the S23’s 120Hz AMOLED display (2340 x 1080 pixels), with the S24 Ultra sporting the S23 Ultra’s glorious dynamic AMOLED 2X panel (1440 x 3088 pixels), as well as its dynamic refresh rate that can scale between 1Hz and 120Hz. Intriguingly, the actual look of both phones may be very different to what we’re used to. Samsung recently hired Hubert H. Lee(opens in new tab), a former design executive at Mercedes-Benz, to lead its smartphone and smartwatch design department from 2023 and beyond, so the S24 and S24 Ultra may veer away from recent Galaxy S models in terms of aesthetics. Under the hood, both phones will almost certainly be running Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon chipset, which looks set to be the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 come 2024. Every model in the Galaxy S23 line runs on a bespoke version of Qualcomm’s already impressive Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor, so the Galaxy S24 and S24 Ultra are likely to be even more powerful handsets than their predecessors. Indeed, a recent leak suggests that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 will be significantly faster than the 8 Gen 2, with the Galaxy-specific version of the chipset set to beat Apple’s upcoming A17 Bionic “on paper.” In other words, the Samsung Galaxy S24 and its larger siblings could be faster than the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Pro and much-rumored iPhone 15 Ultra (although these speed gains are likely to be negligible). To get more granular, leaker RGcloudS(opens in new tab) claims that the standard Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 will boast a high-performance Cortex-X4 core clocked at 3.7GHz, four low-frequency performance cores and three efficiency-focused cores. For comparison, the standard Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 boasts a 3.2GHz clock speed, meaning its successor looks set to be 15% more powerful. It's currently unclear whether the Galaxy-specific version of Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 will be even faster, but 3.7GHz nonetheless marks a sizable increase over the S23's 3.36GHz clock speed. As for the phone’s cameras, tipster Ice Universe claims that Samsung will replace the S23 Ultra’s telephoto sensor with a “new solution” on the S24 Ultra, while the phone’s main camera “will remain the same.” More recently, another tweet(opens in new tab) from RGcloudS suggests the S24 Ultra will adopt a “Gen4 optics” zoom camera design to “significantly improve” the phone’s zoom capabilities. In practice, that could mean a wider 2.5-2.9 aperture and the possibility of 150x digital zoom on the S24 Ultra, which would offer better low-light performance than its predecessor and trump the latter’s already impressive 100x Space Zoom capabilities. There’s been no word yet on the camera setup for the standard Samsung Galaxy S24, but the headline-grabbing photography tech is almost always reserved for the top-end handsets in Samsung’s Galaxy series.

The UK has signed a deal to join a trade pact with 11 Asia and Pacific nations, three years after it officially left the European Union. Joining the group will boost UK exports by cutting tariffs on goods such as cheese, cars, chocolate, machinery, gin and whisky, the government said. However, the government's own estimates show being in the bloc will only add 0.08% to the size of the UK's economy. The trade area covers a market of around 500 million people. The Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership - or CPTPP - was established in 2018, and includes Australia, Brunei, Canada, Chile, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore and Vietnam. Membership of the CPTPP loosens restrictions on trade between members and reduce tariffs - a form of border tax - on goods. UK to join Asia's trade club - what is the CPTPP? Together, the 11 members account for about 13% of the world's income and after 21 months of negotiations, the UK has become the first European country to join. The government said the agreement was the UK's "biggest trade deal since Brexit". However, the gains for the UK from joining are expected to be modest. The UK already has free trade deals with all of the members except Brunei and Malaysia, some of which were rolled over from its previous membership of the EU. And even with some gains in trading the government only estimates it will add 0.08% to the size of the economy in 10 years. The Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR), which provides forecasts for the government, has previously said Brexit would reduce the UK's potential economic growth by about 4% in the long term. 'Prime position' But Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said the deal demonstrated the "real economic benefits of our post-Brexit freedoms". "As part of CPTPP, the UK is now in a prime position in the global economy to seize opportunities for new jobs, growth and innovation," he said. "British businesses will now enjoy unparalleled access to markets from Europe to the south Pacific." Business and Trade Secretary Kemi Badenoch said the agreement was like "buying a start-up". "This is not to replace EU trade, this is in addition. We are still in a free trade agreement with the EU," she told Radio 4's Today programme. "You wouldn't buy a small company like that and expect it to be delivering on the day - we are thinking about the potential," she said, adding that in seven years "40% of the world's middle class is going to come from that region". Ms Badenoch denied there would be any hit to UK agriculture, saying the deal would "create new markets" for farmers. Labour's shadow international trade secretary Nick Thomas-Symonds said the UK joining the CPTPP was "encouraging", but added that questions remain on "consumer safety, food safety, data protection and environmental protections". The government said other "benefits" of being in the bloc included, a boost to the services sector, by UK firms not being required to establish a local office or be resident to supply a service, meaning they will be on a par with local firms. The government said it and CPTPP members would make the final legal and administrative steps required for the UK to formally sign in 2023. https://www.bbc.com/news/business-65124741

Never change, Mazda. This is the firm that appropriated the British roadster, saving it from extinction, and that championed the rotary engine so dedicatedly that when it plumbed one into a Group C racer, victory at Le Mans followed. Quite incredible. Yet 2023 might just bring the most iconoclastic move in its long history. While everyone else is rapidly downsizing and fitting transverse, hybrid powertrains, if not electric ones, Mazda has just come up with a new 3.3-litre turbodiesel straight six that natively drives the rear axle in the form of the Mazda CX-60 3.3 e-SkyActiv D AWD. Have we teleported back to 2003? This is a contender for the most unexpected development of recent years, although as we found when we met the Mazda CX-60 3.3 e-Skyactiv D in February (in RWD guise, not the more potent 4WD form here), there are solid reasons for its existence beyond Mazda’s pathological need to do things its own way. The first is that Europe isn’t the only place where Mazda sells cars, and other markets are on different regulatory trajectories. The second is more interesting: according to Mazda, in everyday driving, a highcapacity diesel will do everything a 2.0-litre four does but at lower load and temperatures. Atypical combustion tech helps thermal efficiency surpass 40%, which is how a 406lb ft, 1950kg 4x4 can get 54.3mpg and emit 139g/km of CO2. Alfa Romeo’s 2.2-litre four-pot diesel Stelvio puts out 59lb ft less yet emits 20g/km more and is 15% or so inferior on efficiency. It’s a similar story if you compare the CX-60 with BMW’s 2.0-litre four-pot X3. So the rationale does seem sound. As for the reality, the picture is mixed. Cold-start this engine and for a moment the soundscape isn’t 2023 or even 2003 but 1983, at a bus stop. Matters improve markedly with temperature, and when you’re riding all that mid-range torque on a good A-road, the engine shows more of its likeable, rich character. But it can still feel anachronistically clackety – a far cry from BMW’s silky alternative – and only modest isolation from road roar at cruising speeds doesn’t help its cause. For a car nudging £50,000 once you’ve gone for the middling trim with an optional pack or two, rolling refinement is lacking, and the diverse and tactile materials of the interior can never assuage that. More impressive is the chassis balance and the easygoing ebb and flow of the steering weight, which are better than the class average and recognisably Mazda. When it comes to guiding a mid-size SUV down a decent country road, few do it better than the CX-60, whose gearbox (with two wet clutches rather than a torque converter) is also well calibrated and helps rather than hinders progress. For all its coarseness at low temperatures, the engine is also reasonably fun to wring out, spinning freely up to around 4500rpm and with surprising effervescence. The petrol version in development could be sweet indeed. All of which makes the brittleness of the low-speed ride a considerable disappointment. The CX-60, on its coil springs and passive dampers, simply isn’t serene enough on town roads to concern the likes of BMW and Audi, whose pricing it only marginally undercuts. There’s a cheapness to proceedings. The back axle also lacks the control and precision that you get from the Germans, which perhaps sounds a bit irrelevant for this kind of car but, because the CX-60 will otherwise oblige when you really want to hustle it, is worth noting. With such an ambitious, unusual powertrain, you wouldn’t expect the car’s ride and handling balance to undermine it, but this is the case. Equally, if you like the idea of a handsome, spacious, uncommon SUV that’s quietly rewarding on the right road and will easily get 50mpg, the CX-60 is still worth exploring https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-review/mazda/cx-60/first-drives/mazda-cx-60-33-e-skyactiv-d-awd

Rabat - The OCP Foundation has injected MAD 10 billion ($986 million) into Mohammed VI Polytechnic University (UM6P), according to converging news reports. After receiving the capital from the OCP Foundation, UM6P’s capital rose to MAD 32 billion ($3.1 billion), up from MAD 22 billion ($2.1 billion), reports indicate. UM6P is set to use the capital to carry out plans to expand its campuses in Benguerir, Rabat, and Laayoune. The university is also set to launch a number of new projects, including the Smart Health Care City in partnership with Akdital. The project is one of the massive facilities of the new green city of Benguerir, an ambitious project for a sustainable city in the desert area of Morocco, near Marrakech. The Smart Health Care City will host three hospitals inserted on a logistical and clinical platform. The project is expected to become operational in September 2024. The university has also announced the construction of the DoubleTree by Hilton hotel in Benguerir, with a capacity of 200 beds. The hotel should become operational by September 2023. This new infrastructure aims to cater to the needs of the university’s students and visitors to its Benguerir campus. The facility will feature a state-of-the-art gym, among other recreational facilities. For meetings and events, plans for the hotel include six meeting rooms and a conference room. The hotel will be owned by Societe Hoteliere de Ben Guerir, a subsidiary of Mohammed VI Polytechnic University. In recent years, UM6P has emerged as a research powerhouse in Morocco and Africa at large. The university is currently funding research in key areas that directly address some of the most pressing challenges Morocco is facing, including agriculture, energy efficiency, and water management. https://www.moroccoworldnews.com/2023/04/354797/moroccos-um6p-raises-nearly-1-billion-funds-from-ocp-foundation

Kioxia and Western Digital have revealed their jointly developed 8th Generation BiCS 3D NAND memory device featuring 218 active layers. The new IC boasts a record-breaking 3200 MT/s interface speed that will allow developers to build high-performance storage subsystems (such as the industry's fastest client SSDs) using fewer 3D NAND chips. To enable a 3200 MT/s I/O, the two companies took a page from YMTC's Xtacking book. The first 8th Generation BiCS 3D TLC NAND device introduced this week features a 1Tb (128GB) capacity, a four-plane architecture to maximize internal parallelism and performance, and a 3200 MT/s interface speed (which will provide a peak sequential read/write speed of 400 MB/s). Kioxia and Western Digital are the first 3D NAND makers in the world to unveil a flash memory IC with a 3200 MT/s I/O, leapfrogging competitors by 33%. But while building the world's fastest 3D NAND memory device is an achievement by itself, it is interesting how the two companies achieved this. Kioxia's and Western Digital's 8th Generation BiCS 3D NAND memory features an innovative architecture called CBA (CMOS directly Bonded to Array), which resembles YMTC's recognized Xtacking. Normally, 3D NAND cells array resides next to or on top of its peripheral circuits like page buffers, sense amplifiers, charge pumps, and I/O. Meanwhile, from semiconductor manufacturing perspective, it is not exactly efficient to make memory and peripheral logic using the same fabrication technology. The CBA and Xtacking architectures involve production of 3D NAND cell array and I/O CMOS on separate wafers using optimal production nodes, something that allows it to maximize bit density of the memory array and I/O performance. In addition to the industry's fastest I/O, Kioxia and Western Digital claim that their latest 3D NAND IC also boasts the industry's highest bit density, though without elaborating what bit density we are looking at. Meanwhile, it is noteworthy that the introduced 8th Generation BiCS 3D TLC NAND can work in both 3D TLC and 3D QLC modes and therefore can potentially address both high-performance/high-capacity premium client and enterprise SSDs as well as inexpensive yet fast drives for client PCs or high-density datacenter-grade storage applications. Kioxia stated that it had commenced sampling its 8th Generation BiCS 3D NAND memory devices with a few chosen customers. However, the company has not provided any information regarding the timeline for the start of high-volume production of its latest flash memory. Since it takes a long time for makers of flash memory and SSD controllers to mate the former to the latter, NAND producers usually reveal new types of memory well before mass production start. That said, expect 8th Gen BiCS 3D NAND on the market sometime in 2024, although we are speculating here. "Through our unique engineering partnership, we have successfully launched the eighth-generation BiCS Flash with the industry's highest bit density," said Masaki Momodomi, Chief Technology Officer at Kioxia Corporation. "I am pleased that Kioxia's sample shipments for limited customers have started. By applying CBA technology and scaling innovations, we've advanced our portfolio of 3D flash memory technologies for use in various data-centric applications, including smartphones, IoT devices, and data centers."

Up to this point we haven't heard too much about the Samsung Galaxy S24, but a new leak points to a significant display upgrade coming next year: the Ultra model will apparently be fitted with displays that have a 144Hz refresh rate. This comes from SamLover(opens in new tab) (via SamMobile(opens in new tab)), which isn't a source we've heard a lot of tips from in the past, so adjust your anticipation levels accordingly. This might not come to pass, but it is also an upgrade that makes sense for Samsung and its top-tier phone. Right now all three Samsung Galaxy S23 handsets boast screens with a 120Hz refresh rate, so this would be a significant step up in terms of the numbers – albeit not one that would be massively noticeable when you're using the devices. Let's talk about specs The refresh rate of a smartphone display quite simply affects how quickly it refreshes: the higher the number, the smoother all of your animations, videos, page scrolling and games are going to look. It's a spec that distinguishes high-end handsets from budget phones. We've got some other predicted specs from the same source as well, some of which we've heard before: the Galaxy S24 phones will apparently be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, which matches up with a previous rumor. The S24 Ultra will apparently stick with the same 200MP main camera sensor as the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra, though with "some improvements" added, while satellite connectivity (as on the iPhone 14) is also rumored to be on the cards. Analysis: how Ultra will the Ultra be? The Ultra model of the Samsung Galaxy S phones is always the most expensive and feature-packed one – and especially so since the Note line ended and Samsung handed the stylus over to the Galaxy S Ultra smartphone instead. Taking a look at the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra launched in February, it has a bigger screen than the other two phones, it can be fitted with more RAM and more internal storage, and it has a superior rear camera setup. We'll have to wait and see just how Ultra the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is, but it sounds as though this 144Hz refresh rate is going to be exclusive to the most expensive phone in the line up. It'll most likely be the biggest phone in the series again as well. This strategy of offering a high-end, high price phone is one that Apple is following as well of course: indeed, it might actually be doubling down on it, if we can believe the rumors around the introduc

[Economics] UK growth confirms recession avoided in 2022
Revo posted a topic in Politics / Economics
The UK economy performed better than previously estimated at the end of last year, revised official figures show. It was previously thought the economy had not grown in the last three months of 2022, but new Office for National Statistics data shows it grew by 0.1%. The latest figures confirm that the UK economy avoided falling into recession at the end of 2022. The ONS said telecommunications, construction and manufacturing had all fared better than initially thought. It also said household finances had been helped by the government's energy bill support scheme. The main driver of the economy in the UK - the services sector - was boosted by a sizeable jump for travel agents. Manufacturing growth was driven by the drugs industry, and construction growth was up much more than previously thought. The ONS also revised up its estimate for the economy's performance in the July-to-September quarter. It now says GDP - the value of the goods and services the country produces - fell by 0.1%, compared with its previous estimate of a 0.2% fall. Chancellor Jeremy Hunt said the figures "show there's underlying resilience in the UK economy". However, he added that "families up and down the country are facing real pressure". A recession is usually defined as when the economy contracts for two three-month periods in a row, so the growth at the end of 2022 means the UK avoided one. Last week, the Bank of England said that the economy was expected to grow only slightly in the coming months. However, Bank governor Andrew Bailey said he was "much more hopeful" for the economy, and it was no longer heading into an immediate recession. Mr Bailey's comments came after the Bank increased interest rates to 4.25% from 4%. Interest rates have been repeatedly hiked as the Bank attempts to get the soaring pace of price rises under control. Inflation, which is the rate at which prices rise, remains close to its highest level for 40 years, and hit 10.4% in the year to February. Ruth Gregory of Capital Economics said the revised ONS figures showed that high inflation took a slightly smaller toll on the economy than thought. However, she said most of the impact of higher rates was yet to be felt. "We still think the economy will slip into a recession this year," she said. Separately, house prices slid in March at the fastest annual rate since 2009, mortgage lender Nationwide said. https://www.bbc.com/news/business-65128313 -
Gordon Murray Automotive (GMA) has announced it will build a convertible version of the T33 supercar, which will be revealed on 4 April. An official concept sketch reveals that the T33 Spider retains the coupé's 609bhp 3.9-litre V12, which is an adapted version of the Cosworth-designed powerplant used in the T50 hypercar. The Spider is expected to be offered with the manual and paddle-shift gearboxes from the T33 coupé – both six-speed units. The roof-mounted duct present on the coupé remains situated above the cockpit, with the sketch suggesting that the windscreen has been angled to prioritise airflow through the tunnel and into the engine. The aerodynamics appear otherwise unchanged, maintaining the coupé’s active rear spoiler and with a focus the underbody's role. Despite losing its fixed roof – a change that necessitates heavy chassis reinforcements when converting most hard-top cars – the T33 Spider weighs a sprightly 1108kg, just 18kg more than the coupé (pictured below). Murray has already confirmed that just 100 examples of each of the three T33 variants will be built. The Spider is number two and a track-focused car is expected to follow. Pricing has not been announced but a premium over the £1.37 million coupé is expected. Given that all 100 coupés sold out within a week of the model’s reveal, all Spiders are expected to be spoken for shortly after its unveiling. Murray said: “From the outset of the T33 programme, I always intended there to be a Spider. In fact, I sketched the Spider before the coupé to ensure the proportions worked. And from that first sketch I knew, with its open cockpit and the incredible Cosworth GMA 2 V12 engine right behind you, the T33 Spider would deliver a truly involving driving experience that’s quite unlike anything else.” Although there are few natural rivals for the T33 Spider, buyers may also consider the likes of the Hennessey Venom F5 Roadster – an American-built supercar powered by an 1817bhp twin-turbocharged V8, with a claimed top speed above 300mph. https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/new-gordon-murray-t33-spider-be-revealed-4-april

Rabat - Morocco’s government had vowed to lower prices of basic goods ahead of Ramadan, yet a week into the holy month, Moroccan citizens continue to overwhelmingly express their concerns over the ongoing cost of living crisis. Prices of essential food commodities have stirred concerns and frustration among citizens, many of whom have given up on buying some products due to the soaring prices. The prices of some goods have tripled, leaving customers confused and unsure whether the situation will witness any change soon. This distressing cost of living crisis has been going on for several months and has worsened during the holy month of Ramadan. Prices of green pepper have gone from ranging between MAD 6 and MAD 9 to hit the MAD 20 mark, while the prices of potatoes and onions have increased to over MAD 18 and MAD 14 respectively. Citizens across Morocco have been taking to social media to decry the government’s perceived lack of concern amid the dispiriting price crisis. In response, the government has either reassured Moroccans that it would soon intervene to lower prices or urged for citizens’ sense of forbearance as it attributed the increase in prices to disruptions in the global market. A high level inter-ministerial commission held on Thursday in Rabat its second meeting at the Ministry of Interior, discussing the need for monitoring the prices of basic foodstuffs. The inter-ministerial delegation included the ministers of interior, economy, agriculture, energy, and industry. Commenting on the situation, Agriculture Minister Mohamed Seddiki, attributed the price hikes to the high cost of production and weather challenges, among other factors. Seddiki also appeared to urge Moroccans to be patient, vowing that the country will experience a significant decrease in prices during the spring season, which this year is projected to coincide with a bounteous harvest season for growers of vegetables like tomatoes and potatoes. The agriculture minister also recalled the government’s measures to address the pricing crisis, including the ban on exporting tomatoes for weeks. Minister of Industry Riyad Mezzour also expressed his department’s commitment to continue to help efforts to tackle the crisis. He said that the prices of some products will remain unchanged in the weeks and months to come while the prices of some products, including tomatoes, will considerably drop. For her part, Minister of Economy Nadia Fettah Alaoui suggested that Morocco’s efforts to sufficiently supply markets across the country with products that are widely consumed during the month of Ramadan may positively impact the prices of these goods. “The volume of production expected in the coming days will certainly have a positive impact on prices,” she said. Meanwhile, Energy Minister Leila Benali commented on the situation by stressing that the meeting of the inter-ministerial committee was marked by the “mention of the structural reforms necessary to solve the problems of the price increase.” She also commented on the energy products, stressing that the existing reserves meet energy needs for over 40 days. These statements from the ministers come amid criticism from both ordinary Moroccans and opposition politicians alike. Several political parties have over the past weeks and days condemned the government’s apparent inaction while Moroccan households continue to struggle with soaring prices. On Thursday, Nabil Benabdellah, Secretary-General of the Progress and Socialism Party (PPS), accused the government of “doing nothing” to protect the purchasing power of Moroccan citizens. Benabdallah also condemned the government for justifying its unresponsiveness and inability to protect Moroccan households’ purchasing power by pointing to the lingering repercussions of global crises like the Ukraine war and the COVID-19 pandemic. https://www.moroccoworldnews.com/2023/03/354782/despite-government-promises-soaring-prices-continue-to-frustrate-moroccans

Any news regarding a potential new Xbox Series X variant is bound to spark a conversation. With so many big titles on the horizon, such as Diablo IV, there’s a lot of potential for innovation, but that hasn’t been the case here. Outside of its impressive hardware, the design of the Xbox Series X is pretty plain. After the initial jokes about it resembling a fridge, so much so that the Xbox Mini Fridge is now a reality, you’d think Microsoft would seize any opportunity to change the appearance to something more appealing. So when the Diablo IV Xbox Series X bundle was announced, we expected something grand, especially considering Nintendo just announced the Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom OLED console to drum up excitement for the game's full launch in May. However, instead of creating a real spectacle, the bundle involves a standard Xbox Series X and its accompanying accessories without a single logo in sight. It’s not uncommon for some of the best games consoles to receive a special edition variation alongside the release of big upcoming games. We’ve seen it with the Nintendo Switch and games like Splatoon 3, Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, and Animal Crossing: New Horizons, and even though the PS5 is yet to launch a themed console, an attempt is still made through themed accessories such as the God of War: Ragnarock DualSense controller. With four blank black sides to the console, there’s ample space to cover it with decals and designs, and with the dark and demonic iconography of Diablo IV, it wouldn’t be too challenging to build upon the base. Given a special giveaway announcement of The Mandalorian-themed console pair for the Series X and Series S on social media, receiving equal parts excitement for the design and disappointment that it was restricted to a giveaway rather than being available for purchase, it would be potentially the best time for Microsoft to capitalize on that success and launch something people can buy. Instead, the Diablo IV bundle(opens in new tab) contains the Xbox Series X, a digital copy of Diablo IV, and a handful of in-game items, such as the Light-Barer Mount with Caparison of Faith Mount Armor, alongside some additional items for games such as Diablo III, World of Warcraft, and Diablo Immortal. For an in-game collector, these could be valuable items to get ahold of, but for a player who has been patiently waiting for the game's launch, it’s far from an exciting console launch. The price of the Xbox Series X bundle is $559 / £559, which admittedly does save a few pennies since the console on its own sets you back $449 / £449 / AU$749, with the standard edition of the game costing $69.99 / £69.99/ AU$109.95. So, you are getting a little discount on both items paired with the in-game cosmetics, pets, and items, but that doesn’t take away from the fact you are just buying a standard Xbox rather than something special. A behemoth blow Players haven’t exactly stayed quiet regarding the announcement, either. Multiple users responded to one of the first tweets from @Wario64 showcasing the bundle stating how it’s a missed opportunity and a huge disappointment. However, with the rapid success and high praise of the Halo Infinite Xbox Series X console, gamers were geared up for a new addition to the mix, so it’s no surprise this news hasn’t been received well. Xbox Series X – Diablo IV Bundle announced, coming June 6th for $559 https://t.co/duomaRY25Lincludes console/controller, Diablo IV, Light-Bearer Mount with Caparison of Faith Mount Armor pic.twitter.com/7rRqybvvXjMarch 30, 2023 Which leads you to wonder whether or not Microsoft is starting to rule out special edition consoles and leave them in the past alongside things like collectors editions which are beginning to miss the point and leave out essential items like the game itself. Special consoles appear to be reserved for things like giveaways, as shown by the Mandalorian and Grogu Xbox Series X and Series S. It’s sad to see such a significant collector's item become a second thought with bundles, but at least we don’t feel the need to have several of the same console due to a change in design.
