  2. In context: If you have never heard of Wordle, you're forgiven, even though it seems to be the "in" thing to be talking about on social media right now. Wordle is a puzzle game only available on the internet and only offers one puzzle per day. Despite its limitations, its popularity has gone viral, with unofficial copycat apps appearing in app stores. Wordle is a play on the creator's last name, Josh Wardle. The game plays like the multicolored peg game, Mastermind but with five-letter words instead. Players have six chances to guess the word of the day while receiving feedback on the presence and position of each letter in the guess. You can play once per day for free on Wardle's Wordle website. Self-proclaimed New York entrepreneur Zach Shakked recently submitted his iOS version of the game to the App Store and had it removed in less than 48 hours. It is unclear whether the original game's creator filed a copyright claim with Apple or if the publicity brought on by Shakked's pompous attitude alerted the Cupertino firm to the blatant ripoff. To his credit, Shakked did make some changes to the game by adding four, six, and seven-word variants. He also introduced a paid version that allows players access to unlimited puzzles instead of once daily. Despite his changes, Shakked came under fire on Twitter after bragging about how well his app was doing. Of particular note was developer Andy Baio calling Shakked's tactics "so gross." "This guy shamelessly cloned Wordle (name and all) as an F2P iOS game with in-app purchases and is bragging about how well it's doing and how he'll get away with it because Josh Wardle didn't trademark it," Baio tweeted. "So gross." Shakked defended himself, pointing out that Wordle is a ripoff of the 1980s game show Lingo. He also said he was justified in stealing the name because Wardle never trademarked it, but Baio wasn't buying any of it. "There have been games with similar mechanics dating back at least to the 19th century — the 1980s game show Lingo was far from the first — but this guy plagiarized the name and interface from Wordle as a naked cash grab," Baio said. Others pointed out Shakked's hypocrisy by dredging up a tweet from last summer saying that he "despised copycats." At some point, Shakked locked his Twitter account, presumably because of the backlash, but has since unlocked it, apologizing for the fiasco. "I realize I crossed a line," he tweeted. "And I surely, surely will never do anything remotely close to this again. I f***ed up." The Verge notes that Apple removed several other "Wordle" apps but that many clones remain under various names. Shakked is appealing Apple to reinstate the game.
  3. In context: Intel Arc Alchemist mobile GPUs should be coming out soon, but Intel hasn't shared much about their specifications yet. However, a leaked Intel slide has recently started making the rounds confirming some rumors we've been reading about the upcoming laptop SKUs. The leaked slide titled "DG2 Graphics Memory configuration" has found its way onto the Internet through HXL, a known leaker with a good track record. The slide has a table briefly detailing the specifications of five DG2 NB (notebook) SKUs, which may or may not be the same as the desktop SKUs. First, we have the DG2 SKU with 512EUs, which supports up to eight 2GB memory modules (16GB of VRAM) clocked at 16Gbps. Thanks to the 256-bit memory bus, bandwidth maxes out at 512GB/s. I/O voltage for this SKU is set at 1.35V. Then, we have the DG2-384EU SKU, capable of carrying up to six 2GB VRAM modules for a memory capacity of 12GB. The I/O voltage checks in at 1.35V, and the memory is clocked at 16Gbps in a 192-bit memory bus, maximizing the bandwidth at 384GB/s. In the middle of the lineup, there's the 256EU SKU with 8GB of GDDR6 memory (four modules of 2GB) running at 16Gbps. A maximum bandwidth of 256GB/s is achieved using a 128-bit memory bus. Like the 512EU and 384EU SKUs, the I/O voltage in this one is also set at 1.35V. Last but not least, we have the 128EU and 96EU SKUs sharing the same memory configuration. With up to two VRAM modules (4GB total) clocked at 14Gbps, they offer a maximum bandwidth of 112GB/s using a 64-bit memory bus. Unlike the other SKUs, their I/O voltages are set at a lower 1.25V, hence the lower memory speed. Just because the table shows five SKUs, it doesn't mean there will only be five mobile GPUs. For example, Nvidia uses the GA 102 SKU to power the RTX 3090Ti, RTX 3090, RTX 3080Ti, and RTX 3080 12G/10G, some RTX workstation (A4500, A5000, and A6000) and professional (A10 and A40) graphics cards, and even a mining card. So, expect to see more than five mobile GPU options once they release. In related news, a SiSoftware Sandra result of Intel's supposedly flagship desktop GPU was recently found in the benchmark database. According to these results, the Intel card is on par with an RTX 3070Ti. Who knows? Maybe these results can be replicated in the laptop format.
  4. A new card expansion is set to launch on December 7th, giving Hearthstone players a tough decision to make. In the third part of the over-arching narrative from the last two expansions, Fractured in Alterac Valley promises an epic showdown between Horde and Alliance. Players will choose between the two factions and be rewarded a Golden Legendary card that is available right now. The Frostwolf clan’s Elder Shaman Drek’Thar of the Horde and the Stormpike Guard’s Mountain King Vanndar Stormpike of the Alliance are the Legendary cards that players will be obtaining depending on their faction. Moreover, from December 7 to January 11, each faction will have unique Quests to complete in-game that will earn then Honor points. The faction that acquires the most Honor points will be declared victorious and each player will be getting a diamond version of the winning faction’s leader card. Of course with every new expansion comes new mechanics to play around with. Fractured in Alterac Valley is all about honor, so the new keyword “Honorable Kill” rewards you for dealing lethal blows to a minion. Dealing the exact damage required to kill a minion triggers the Honorable Kill effect and grants the player unique bonuses such as reducing the cost of cards or gaining additional stats. The Mercenaries we’ve been following through the previous expansions have been through a lot. They’ve cleared the Barrens, the Wailing Caverns, Stormwind, and the Deadmines and are now featured in the latest expansion as Hero Cards with their own battlecary effects and hero powers. Each class will be getting a Hero Card modelled after a Mercenary. Objective spell cards will be special effects that last for only three turns, giving the expansion a battle-themed feel where you need to press your advantage and try to swing a fight that you could otherwise be losing. Fractured in Alterac Valley already has it’s pre-order pack out now if you’re interested in a big ‘ol bundle of cards and other benefits like Battlegrounds perks. You can purchase it at the Battle.net store here.

  8. Rejected See you with new request after 2weeks.
  9. TL;DR: After months of waiting, Dropbox users can finally download a beta of the desktop app that runs natively on Apple’s Arm-based processors. Users can get it by opting into early releases, though Dropbox doesn’t specify what improvements this version brings. Apple asserts that its transition from Intel’s x86 processors to its Arm-based CPUs has wielded better performance and lower power consumption in applications that run natively on it. Since then, users have waited for their favorite programs to release ports to Apple silicon. Google Drive started natively supporting Apple silicon with version 52.0 last October. Around the same time, Dropbox users started asking when that cloud storage program would bring out a native Apple silicon version, and the company told 9to5Mac that it was in testing but wouldn’t be available until 2022. This week, Dropbox released a version of beta build 140.3.1903 for Apple Silicon. The macOS offline installer for this beta has two versions, one for Intel and one for Apple silicon. To get it as an automatic update, opt into early releases on the desktop app. Dropbox users can opt-in by opening the desktop app, clicking on their avatar, going to Preferences>General, and then toggling on early releases. It isn’t clear how Dropbox improves from running natively on Apple silicon compared to the Intel version in compatibility mode. The company did not have a timeframe of when a public M1 version would be ready.
  10. In brief: GPU prices have caused gamers a great deal of pain over the past year, but rising mining difficulty and tumbling Ethereum value are once again putting downward pressure on the ridiculous retail price of both Nvidia and AMD graphics cards. Last week, we learned Nvidia decided to increase the price of its Founders Edition GPUs in Europe. One possible reason for the change is the recent strengthening of the American dollar against the Euro, but since MSRPs have been rendered meaningless by insatiable demand it’s easy to dismiss it when looking at the big picture. However, 2022 started with some really good news for gamers and enthusiasts, as industry watchers hadn’t noticed any significant retail price change in over two months. According to a new report from German publication 3DCenter, there’s even more reason to be optimistic as the first weeks of January saw prices trending downward, particularly in the case of AMD’s Radeon RX 6800 and RX 6800 XT. (Click to expand) Falling cryptocurrency prices and news of imminent country-wide cryptocurrency bans have made GPU mining less profitable, and now AMD cards sit at an average of 67 percent above MSRP. Nvidia GPUs still maintain a larger premium at 77 percent over MSRP, but they’ve at least returned to October 2021 levels. Newer graphics cards like the Nvidia RTX 3050 and the AMD Radeon RX 6500 XT aren’t attractive to miners, but they’re also relatively low value for gamers. Elsewhere in the supply chain, it looks like material and component shortages may also be easing. According to DigiTimes, the supply of Ajinomoto Build-up Film (ABF) substrates will slowly improve in the coming months, and by the second half it will allow AIB companies like ASRock and TUL (PowerColor) to greatly scale up their graphics card shipments. ASRock president Lung-Iuen Hsu recently said the company expects to post a double-digit surge in shipments and profits this year. Still, tackling the chip shortage is a complex problem that won’t be solved by simply improving the supply of ABF substrates, but rather by rendering GPU mining obsolete. Ethereum mining difficulty continues to grow every month and if all goes well we should see a transition to Proof-of-Stake this year. Other Proof-of-Work cryptocurrencies that can be mined using GPUs have nowhere near the scale or value of Ethereum, meaning most miners would be forced to sell off graphics cards to recoup some of their investment.
  11. Pokemon Legends: Arceus is set to launch on Jan. 28, but that hasn't stopped some retailers selling physical copies of the Switch game early. Inevitably, spoilers are being posted online and Nintendo must be fuming. As Eurogamer reports, images and gameplay footage from Arceus started appearing today across social media. Combined, they spoil pretty much all of the major story elements present in the game. Copyright claims are being used to take the content down, but they can't keep up and many spoilers remain accessible. We won't be sharing any of them here, but be warned that you may inadvertently stumble across a few. The pre-release leaks were possible because some retailers are selling physical copies of the game early. We know this because photographs have been posted online of people holding their newly-acquired copy and clearly some individuals decided they wanted to spoil the experience for everyone else. They are collectively known as "the worst kind of people." Arceus is a big release not only for Nintendo, but Pokemon fans, too. It's the first action role-playing game in the mainline Pokemon series, and the open-world nature of the gameplay has more than a few gamers excited about how it could reinvigorate the franchise. It's unlikely Nintendo will choose to officially release the game early due to these leaks because all the advertising and promotion will be geared around Jan. 28. For anyone waiting patiently to play the game next Friday, perhaps treat this as a good opportunity to take a break from social media for a few days.

  18. Recap: Microsoft released Windows 11 to the public last October as a free upgrade for devices running Windows 10. Redmond invested a lot of time and effort into building the new OS, but some features didn’t make the deadline and thus weren’t available at launch. Microsoft in June 2021 announced plans to bring Android apps to Windows 11 through a partnership with Amazon. The tie in wasn’t ready when Windows 11 shipped, although Windows Insiders did get test the feature in a limited capacity shortly after. In a recent post on the official Windows blog, Microsoft Chief Product Officer Panos Panay said they will be bringing new experiences to Windows “that include a public preview of how you can use Android apps on Windows 11 through the Microsoft Store and our partnerships with Amazon and Intel.” The wording here is a bit confusing as it doesn’t explicitly say there will be a public preview of the feature, but a preview of how you can use Android apps in Windows 11. Panay touched on other inbound features including taskbar improvements such as call mute and unmute, easier window sharing, bringing weather information to the taskbar and redesigned versions of Notepad and Media Player. Windows 11 is off to a solid start, at least according to Microsoft. Panay said Windows now powers more than 1.4 billion monthly active devices, and that time spent in Windows is up 10 percent over pre-pandemic levels. People accepted the upgrade offer to Windows 11 at twice the rate Microsoft saw for Windows 10. Traffic to the redesigned Microsoft Store is also up threefold.
  19. Why it matters: The launch of Nvidia’s RTX 3050 has been much more well-received than that of AMD’s RX 6500 XT, as shown by the arguably more positive reviews. The latter card isn’t flying off the shelves, so the Team Green offering has a good chance to steer gamers away — if the price is right. The AMD Radeon RX 6500 XT is a strange product that launched at the most inopportune time with a sticker price that doesn't even qualify it as a cash grab. Despite Team Red’s good or bad motivations behind this deeply flawed graphics card release, its only achievement is that scalpers and cryptocurrency miners seem to have steered away from it. Our own Steven Walton wrote a scathing review of the card, but his view is shared among other reviewers who also believe AMD has cut features and specifications too far. The RX 6500 XT was supposed to be an entry-level graphics card with enough power to deliver 1080p gaming at medium-high details without breaking the bank, but its technical limitations make it look bad even against the good old RX 580 — a less energy-efficient but more capable product. A week after launch, the RX 6500 XT can’t be found at or near MSRP, which isn’t a huge surprise. If we go by Newegg listings, the Asus TUF version is the most expensive at $418.99 while the PowerColor offers the most affordable model at “just” $269.99. That’s a far cry from the $199.99 MSRP, and a ridiculous asking price for what is essentially a low end laptop GPU turned into a desktop graphics card that needs to be installed into a PCIe 4.0 slot to make it worthwhile. Before the actual launch, AMD did promise to work closely with AIB partners to ensure a strong supply of the new cards. And since the Navi24 GPU is a relatively small chip measuring 107 sq. mm, the company can fit more of these into a wafer. The biggest problem of the RX 6500 XT is that Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 3050 is a better product in almost every way. Unlike AMD, Nvidia opted to use the more expensive GA106 silicon from the RTX 3060, paired it with double the amount of VRAM (8 gigabytes), and built it into a PCIe x8 card. It will likely be more expensive than the RX 6500 XT and may suffer from availability issues, but it’s also not particularly attractive to miners. Time will tell which company played its cards right, as gamers will vote with their wallets.
  20. PUBG developer Krafton has sued Apple, Google, and the maker of what it says is a copycat PUBG for offering a "blatantly infringing mobile version of Battlegrounds." As The Verge reports, the lawsuit filed on Jan. 10 alleges that in 2017 Apple and Google began selling Free Fire: Battlegrounds from Garena (later renamed Free Fire). Garena later released a separate app, Free Fire Max. Krafton argues that Garena’s games copy many aspects of PUBG, from the unique airplane drop-in at the start of each match and the game structure to the weapon and item selection and even the color schemes. Even YouTube is getting drawn into this legal fight, as Krafton claims the video site “is hosting countless posts of Free Fire and Free Fire Max gameplay, many of which have been viewed hundreds of thousands of times, and in some cases more than a million times." They “feature numerous elements from Free Fire and Free Fire Max that infringe Battlegrounds.” Krafton also takes issue with a feature-length Chinese film posted widely on YouTube that it claims is a “blatantly infringing live-action dramatization of Battleground.” On Dec. 21, 2021, Krafton requested that Garena pull its games from Apple and Google’s app stores and that YouTube take down posts containing game footage with infringing elements, as well as the Chinese film. Krafton says Garena refused. “Apple and Google fail to address legitimate claims of copyright infringement on their networks where they are indemnified by deep-pocketed co-infringers, like Garena," the lawsuit says. "This selective enforcement of copyright law renders Apple and Google liable for willful infringement.” Data from Sensor Tower shows Free Fire earned $1.1 billion from in-game spending in 2021, The Verge reports. This isn’t the first legal battle between Krafton and Garena. In 2017, the two sides settled a similar copycat case in Singapore, thought it did not sign a licensing deal, the suit says.
