The Italian brand will launch this new version in Brazil this year, the most accessible of the range, designed exclusively for work and fleet owners. It will have basic equipment, but with the highest load capacity in the segment: 770 kilos. Mechanically, it will be powered by the 85 hp Fire Evo 1.4 engine, associated with the 5-speed manual gearbox. Much of the recognition that the Strada boasts is thanks to the tireless Working versions, the most basic and utilitarian in the portfolio, designed especially for fleets. In Fiat they know it very well and after the production of the first generation, they are already working on its successor, which will complete the range of the small pickup. Its development had already been anticipated last year, but only now the test units have begun to be seen, which indicates that its launch is near. This is demonstrated by the images published by our colleagues at Autos Segredos, who managed to photograph a unit completely without camouflage and even with the Working badges on the sides. As expected, it will be the most accessible option in the range, stripped of all superfluous elements, but with a feature that will be highly valued by its customers: its load capacity will increase to 770 kilos, the largest in the segment. Based on the Cabina Plus body -extended-, it has unpainted bumpers -black plastic-, halogen headlights with darkened mask, protections on the wheel arches, 14-inch steel wheels -shod with 175/70 R14 tires- and lining on the box to prevent scratches. Inside doors, the proposal will be similar, nothing fancy, just enough and necessary but with a good security endowment: according to the Brazilian website, its equipment will consist of hydraulic steering, radio preparation, 12V socket, driver's footrest, computer dashboard, tachometer, GSI gear shift indicator, door storage, sun visor with mirror and height-adjustable seat belts. Fortunately, it will keep the dual airbag, brakes with ABS / EBD, traction control and stability control. Air conditioning could be offered as an optional extra. Mechanically, this version will use the same configuration of the Endurance variants: the well-known 85 hp Fire Evo 1.4 gasoline engine, associated with a 5-speed manual gearbox. An already extremely proven and reliable combination that was already offered in its predecessor. The presentation of the new Strada Working is scheduled for the next few months in the neighboring country, already as part of the Model Year 2022 line of the pick up. At the moment, there are no indications about his arrival in Argentina. Moreover, if it is materialized, unfortunately it will have to face one of the typical and questioned bureaucratic obstacles of the country: when it exceeds 700 kilos of load capacity, to drive it it would be necessary to process the LiNTI.

he SSD market is almost as crazy this year as the graphics card market. And it is that with everything that happened with prices, it seems that we cannot talk about stability in the sector, at least until the end of this 2021 and to show a button: the main manufacturers of NAND Flash continue to bet on new batch TLC memories and they leave their new generation QLCs parked. Does it command profitability in the short term thanks to the new 3D TLC? Of the top six manufacturers of 3D NAND Flash in the world (if we count WD as independent), three of them are going to bet once again on TLC NAND Flash instead of launching new technologies based on QLC. The big question in the middle of 2021 is, why do you keep launching new versions of 3-bit NAND Flas if what you want is to increase capacity and decrease cost?

Chosun Biz, LG and Samsung will stop supplying premium displays for smartphones as of September 15 Within a few years Huawei became the largest smartphone manufacturer in the world. However, accused of being a national security risk, the Chinese company is facing increasing problems obtaining key parts for its phones, as well as software. After the United States government imposed a commercial ban on Huawei, which meant that it could not do business with American companies, the company was prevented, first, from accessing Google services, so its latest models no longer they have them pre-installed. It was later announced that it could not make deals with chipmakers Qualcomm and Broadcom either. Now, according to a report from South Korean media Chosun Biz, LG and Samsung will stop supplying premium smartphone displays to Huawei from September 15. It is not clear what exactly the decision means but, according to the report, it probably refers to OLED displays, which are used in the company's high-end models, such as the P40 Pro equipped with a panel made by Samsung. EU expands sanctions against Huawei This is a big problem, as LG and Samsung are among the world's largest display providers and an important part of Huawei's supply chain that will be forced to turn to suppliers in their country, which may not be able to do so. ready to meet the needs of the company. Thus, Huawei could be in serious trouble to manufacture its next models. However, it appears that the company is preparing to become more independent. Huawei may not be allowed to do deals with Google, but that does not stop its ambitions to retain its place in the world and, at its annual developer conference, it announced that, in 2021, it plans to launch smartphones with its proprietary Harmony operating system. Also, according to the Chinese company, to attract more applications to its ecosystem, a beta version of its second-generation operating system, HarmonyOS 2.0, will be launched at the end of this year for mobile developers. Meanwhile, the HarmonyOS beta will be open source for tablets, car systems, and smartwatches starting this week. Huawei ensures that its operating system has a current reach of 490 million users through its family of devices, it announced, it will seek to expand its base through the Internet of Things market. In fact, it has already closed agreements with important brands and estimates that its HiCar technology will reach five million vehicles next year.

The letter from the head of Moroccan diplomacy evokes "deep misunderstandings" with Germany regarding Western Sahara, among other issues Rabat decided to "suspend all contact" with the German embassy in Morocco, due to "deep misunderstandings" with Berlin on the question of Western Sahara among other issues, according to Moroccan diplomatic sources. The local press published on Monday a letter from the head of Moroccan diplomacy, Nasser Bourita, to the head of the government Saad-Eddine El Othmani explaining the decision. "All ministerial departments (...) are kindly requested to suspend all contact, interaction or action (...) both with the German embassy in Morocco and with related German political foundations and cooperation agencies", indicates this official email. "The Ministry of Foreign Relations also adopted the decision to suspend all contact or management with the embassy," reads the letter that evokes "deep misunderstandings" with Germany regarding "issues" fundamental to Morocco. "Morocco wishes to preserve its relationship with Germany, but it is a form of alert that expresses discomfort on various issues," a senior official from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs confirmed to AFP. "There will be no contact until answers are given to different questions posed," he said. Among the sticking points is Germany's position on Western Sahara, which criticizes the US decision to recognize Moroccan sovereignty in the disputed territory, but also the withdrawal of Rabat in the negotiations on the future of Libya in a conference organized in Berlin in January 2020, he said. At the beginning of December, the head of Moroccan diplomacy greeted "the excellence of the cooperation between the two countries" in a statement after a telephone meeting with the German Minister for Economic and Development Cooperation, Gerd Müller. Berlin had just released 1,387 million euros of financial support, of which 202.6 million in donations and the rest in advantageous loans, to support the reforms of the Moroccan financial system and emergency aid to fight the covid-19.

Although Intel has always been characterized by the heavy investment it makes in research and development (R&D), in reality in recent years the technological advances that it has managed to carry out have come at a rather slow pace. The most recent data shows that Intel's total investment in R&D in 2020 reached $ 13,556 million, an increase of 1.45% over the previous year, but the reality is that in the last 17 years this increase has been of only 5%. Is Intel stuck when it comes to development? And how is AMD doing to build competition? Intel's total revenue for the past year reached $ 77.9 billion, with a net profit amount exceeding $ 20.9 billion. This means that Intel's investment in research and development during 2020 represented 17.4% of their total income, but more shocking is to see that they invested nothing more and nothing less than 64.9% of their profits. Is this not enough? Intel's investment in R&D, not paying off? Those familiar with the company's history will know that this was also the time when Intel Core was born, when processor performance soared and Intel managed to crush competition from AMD. In the years since then until now, Intel's annual growth in R&D investment has basically not exceeded 5%, and in fact if you look at it, it has been more or less in line with the performance improvements of the devices. signature processors. Actually, the amount of money that Intel invests in development and innovation is enormous, one of the highest in the industry if not the most, and even so in recent years we have only been able to see how AMD has been gaining ground little by little. but at a steady pace, with Ryzen processors as a clear turning point. This makes us think about the efficiency or rather the effectiveness of the money that Intel invests, because of course with such an injection of money, a much better result than they are presenting every year would be expected.

The latest regular update to Google's Pixel phones introduces the ability to make and share audio recordings, choose new wallpapers to celebrate International Women's Day, and use the phone's camera to measure heart and respiratory rates. The Pixel recorder is one of the applications that receives news with the new update, available on Google phones from Pixel 2 and later versions. Specifically, it expands its functions so that users can record, transcribe - for now, only in English - and search for audio moments, which they can later share through links with other people. With the new update, it will also be possible to make backup copies of the recordings in the Google Account. In this way, they can be accessed "from any device", as indicated by the company in a statement. In addition, Pixel phones will be able to take pictures underwater thanks to the custom integration with a submersible housing that has been made by Pixel's photographic software engineer, José Ricardo Lima. This means that divers will be able to use the Pixel camera with the Kraken Sports universal housing and photograph underwater life and bottoms. Camera functions, including night view, portrait mode, motion photos, and video, will be directly accessible through the camera app. The company has also reported that from next week, the Google Fit application will incorporate the new function that allows measuring heart and respiratory rates using the mobile camera. Google warned in February when it announced this feature that it is not designed for medical diagnosis or to evaluate medical conditions, but records of these metrics can be saved in the app to monitor and improve daily well-being. The latest Pixel update also includes new wallpapers to celebrate different cultural moments that take place throughout the year. For March 8, International Women's Day, Pixel will add new wallpapers designed by the Spanish duo Cachetejack and inspired by the strength and transformation of women. On the other hand, the 'Smart Compose' tool, which uses machine learning to help complete sentences as the user types, has been expanded and is available for certain messaging applications on Pixel phones. In the United States and only in English, he has also started to suggest common phrases. Finally, together with the Pixel Stand base, Google phones since the Pixel 3 have introduced with the latest update a new night screen in the 'bedtime' function. This screen displays redesigned notifications to help you fall asleep.

Lately, the industry is increasingly giving Easter Eggs (Easter eggs) in vehicles, little details hidden so that only the most fanatical people will find them. This practice became very po[CENSORED]r in video games and now appears to be in cars. But what happens with the 6th generation Ford Mustang is not so hidden, however many people do not know that it exists The current generation Mustang, launched back in 2015, hides a space to the left of the steering wheel that at first glance looks like a fuse cover, but when pushed, it is actually an ideal compartment for storing glasses. Although most vehicles have this space in the roof, in fron t of the rear view mirror, in the Mustang things changed places. a-daaan! An ideal space to store your glasses, keys or an extra credit card to pay for fuel for the Mustang. While this compartment was designed to store sunglasses, many people keep house keys, cash, garage remote control, etc. there. For some reason, the designers just didn't want to put this stand where it usually goes, and that led them to do something really cool and different that, for some reason, a lot of people don't even know exists.

A few years ago we suffered from a curious situation of GPU shortage due to mining, and now with the growth of the value of BTC and ETH cryptocurrencies we have returned to the same situation. The shortage of GPUs is such that not even miners can access them, so it seems they are looking for other alternatives and, apparently, it goes for gaming laptops with dedicated RTX 30 GPUs as it has been discovered in China. a huge farm that uses hundreds of them. Hasee is a Chinese notebook manufacturer that now offers products with GeForce RTX 30 Series technology. A huge cryptocurrency mining farm has uploaded a video that shows hundreds of equipment of this brand already implemented or about to do so in the procedure of mining cryptocurrencies, a situation that is also beginning to cause a shortage in the market for laptops with dedicated RTX graphics . The Huge Mining Farm with RTX Laptops PC gamers are already clearly tired and annoyed by the situation in the current market, in which it is almost impossible to find stock of graphics cards (and not only the RTX 30 from NVIDIA, but also from AMD) for some time months. This situation is now aggravated by the fact that miners are buying large quantities of gaming laptops in order to continue building their farms to mine cryptocurrencies, causing shortages in this market segment as well. Both AMD and NVIDIA have already said that the shortage situation that exists due to mining is legitimate and that they cannot or will not do anything, but if they intend to take care of the gamer community, which is the one that reports a huge part of their benefits, it is clear that they must do something or else they could both become manufacturers exclusively for the miners. And if what happened years ago happens, there will come a time when cryptocurrencies fall in price and stop attracting so much interest, so your income will begin to plummet. The fact is that this shortage situation that we are experiencing in the graphics card market may soon spread to the gaming laptop market, and that may not be the same for them anymore.

AMD released its StoreMi storage drive acceleration software in 2018. It is software created by Enmotus and has a commercial version called Enmotus FuzzyDrive. The idea behind this technology is very similar to what Intel had with the first Optane units: An SSD that caches our HDD and accelerates the performance of our equipment. StoreMi came free of charge for AMD's X470 chipsets and Ryzen 2000s. It wasn't too successful, partly because it was limited to high-end chipsets and enthusiast users already have fast SSDs as main drives, and partly because it is assumed that abusing an SSD as a cache can shorten its life, in addition to that AMD did not do enough promotion of it, although it did try as we can read here. The company behind the software already pointed out at the time that it was not exactly a cache, but that the most used data was directly moved to the fastest unit. StoreMi did not have a good acceptance, and last April AMD announced that it would stop supporting it, although whoever was using it could continue using it, it was understood that the company's new products would not have support for this software. However, it was not a final goodbye, as AMD said it was working on a replacement for StoreMI. And it was in September when we saw that AMD released StoreMI version 2, although the company continues to keep the name of StoreMi dry from the software. By then they fixed several bugs, and changed part of the concept of the technology so that the "cached" data would also be kept on the source drive instead of being changed drives. Although this means more space occupied, it avoids data loss in the event of an accident such as the disconnection of the SSD or a malfunction or interruption of the program, etc. In addition to this change, AMD expanded support for more chipsets, including the B450 ideal for cheaper computers, where it is easier to find mixed SSD + HDD solutions . And it seems that AMD is still determined to expand the user base, and today we see that they have released a new version of it in which support is added for the Ryzen Threadripper Pro, in addition to the TRX40 and WRX80 chipsets. Another novelty is that we can now create a partition on our SSD exclusively for the cache task. So currently StoreMi works with 500, 400, X399, TRX40 and WRX80 series chipsets and can be downloaded from the official AMD website.
