We're updating our benchmark suite with a new some new titles and a new test system. As such, we have some new benchmark results to present to you. This title is all about adding another Raytracing-compatible title into our graphics card test suite. The Callisto Protocol has been a hot topic in the PC gaming community, and with good reason. The AMD-sponsored title promises to deliver a top-notch gaming experience to PC gamers, with cutting-edge graphics and performance capabilities. That last bit proofs to be a bit more challenging. We'll put the platform to the test by evaluating its graphics card performance. A good number of graphics cards, including the latest AMD Radeon and NVIDIA GeForce models, will be benchmarked and compared. This will give us a clear picture of how well the Callisto Protocol performs on PC hardware and what kind of gaming experience players can expect. The Callisto Protocol has been developed primarily for the latest generation of consoles but is also available on previous generation Xbox and PlayStation. This means that even nine-year-old hardware should be able to run the game, although the PC version is not exactly a lightweight game, as you will find out. The Callisto Protocol is set in the year 2320, and revolves around the planet Callisto and the adventures of space pilot Jacob Lee, played by renowned actor Josh Duhamel. The game begins with a dramatic twist when Jacob and his partner are attacked while transporting a hazardous material, causing their ship to crash on Callisto. To Jacob's shock, he finds himself handcuffed and taken to the notorious Black Iron Prison. Despite his attempts to prove his innocence, he is disregarded and thrown into a prison complex where a mysterious disease is spreading, turning both prisoners and guards into zombie-like creatures. As the game progresses, players must navigate through the prison to escape and uncover the truth behind the outbreak and those responsible for it. The Callisto Protocol runs on the Unreal 4 engine and utilizes FSR 2 technology to enable upscaling. The game does not support DLSS. The game is available on both DirectX 11 and 12, with the latter allowing players to enable ray tracing. Based on the initial benchmarks, it's clear that the platform is capable of delivering a premium gaming experience with nice graphics and okay performance if you select the right quality settings. When released in December, the game was still in its early days, and there were some bugs and performance issues to iron out. We waited until the game got patched. In this article, we'll take a closer look at the Callisto Protocol from a PC graphics performance and PC gaming perspective https://www.guru3d.com/review/the-callisto-protocol-pc-graphics-performance-benchmark-review

“I believe I will still beat it again.” These are the words of a Nigerian woman, Didi, who feared a recurrence of her cancer – but saw herself as a survivor. Her attitude is becoming more common everywhere as more people are living after a cancer diagnosis. Though po[CENSORED]tions are growing and ageing, and cancer incidence is therefore rising, it’s also true that the likelihood of surviving is greater than before. And identifying as a survivor, rather than a “victim”, matters. Studies show that it’s associated with better health outcomes. Didi’s optimism is inspiring when you consider the challenges women like her face: a weak health system, high out-of-pocket medical costs, cancer stigma, and a highly patriarchal society that increases women’s vulnerability. In 2020, Nigeria reported an estimated 124,815 new cancer cases and 78,899 cancer deaths, mostly from breast, cervical and prostate cancers. The country is projected to experience an increase in cancer incidence by 2040. The growing po[CENSORED]tion of people who have had cancer makes it important to understand their experiences. What is it like to be a cancer survivor in Nigeria? Does identifying as a survivor rather than as a victim make a difference? Can the survivors’ quality of life be improved? These were the questions my colleagues and I – gerontology and public health researchers – had in mind when we conducted the study that Didi took part in. Breast cancer survivors For our study of what it means to be a female cancer survivor in Nigeria, we took a qualitative descriptive research approach. We interviewed 30 women in Abuja who had had cancer (29 had been diagnosed with breast cancer and one with skin cancer). They were aged between 29 and 55; 16 were married; 19 had children; 29 had tertiary education. The women in the study were recruited through a partnership with an organisation that offers psycho-social support to cancer survivors. This meant they felt comfortable enough to share their experiences. We analysed what they told us to identify themes. Three key findings emerged: cancer can be stigmatising women made sense of their experience in diverse ways identifying as a cancer survivor can be empowering. The Nigerian women reported that they had encountered negative attitudes from others. One said: “I have been mocked … laughed at … embarrassed.” Another said she had not been given her job back after her cancer treatment was complete. She also said her husband treated her unkindly after her mastectomy. Stigma can result in social isolation, loss of livelihood and fear of seeking help. All the study participants identified as survivors, but for different reasons. They mentioned strength, hope, self-esteem, having a positive outlook on life, and maintaining a sense of control. For some, their religious faith gave them this identity. One said that seeing herself as a survivor enabled her to stick to her medical treatment. Care and support contributed to this identity for some: Since when I joined (a support group), I see myself as a cancer survivor. I’m going to make it no matter what, I know that I’m going to make it. The women shared their thoughts about the future and looking beyond their cancer diagnosis. Many showed great resilience as their responses reflected hope for a better future, beyond cancer. Overall, although some of the women in the study spoke of their negative experiences, they reported that identifying as cancer survivors gave them a positive outlook. This was in line with other studies that found that identifying as a cancer survivor can be empowering. These qualities are particularly significant in Nigeria, where some people diagnosed with cancer may see it as a death sentence or refuse chemotherapy and surgery because they think those treatments can kill. Cancer is extremely disruptive: it involves treatment and changes to relationships, careers and lifestyles. It can have a huge impact on future goals. The way people choose to make sense of all this is the difference between being a “survivor” and being a “victim”. Choosing to identify as a cancer survivor in Nigeria is choosing to have a voice or an active role. It may empower a person and make them more resilient. Still, there is a need for support and for Nigeria to reduce the burden of cancer through its national plan.

The poultry producer Moy Park was Northern Ireland’s largest business by turnover last year, analysis for Ulster Business magazine suggests. The company, which is ultimately owned by the Brazilian JBS group, had turnover of £1.88bn and pre-tax profit of £18.7m. There are now six companies in Northern Ireland with annual turnover of more than £1bn, compared to just one a decade ago. The analysis suggests that while the 100 largest business in Northern Ireland increased sales last year profit margins were squeezed. Combined turnover across the 100 firms was up 17% to £35.2bn while total pre-tax profits fell by 8% to £1.32bn. John Mulgrew, editor of Ulster Business, said the figures suggest that for some firms "the impact of rising costs, higher borrowing and skills shortages are hitting that bottom line". Some of the new entrants to the top 100 list include the Kingsbridge Healthcare Group, which was recently sold to a private equity firm for £300m, and the Charles Brand civil engineering firm.

Dog-owners are being urged not to leave their pets in the car or to walk them during the hottest part of the day. The warning from Guernsey Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (GSPCA) comes as a heatwave affects large parts of the UK. The Channel Island charity said it was expecting to receive reports from the public of dogs locked in cars, dogs being walked on hot pavements, animals in direct sunlight and wildlife in need. GSPCA manager Steve Byrne said there were simple things islanders could do to ensure it is safe to take pets outside. 'Stop and think' He advised avoiding walking dogs at the hottest part of the day and testing the heat of the pavement with the back of a hand for seven seconds. Dogs should be walked on cooler grass, ideally in shaded areas, early in the morning or evening, he said. "We urge all pet owners to stop and think and ensure that their pet is not put in a life-threatening situation," Mr Byrne added. "If your dog is left in the car, even if parked in the shade as the sun moves [it] could put them at a real risk of heat exhaustion, which can lead to death." The GSPCA said when it is 22°C (72°F) outside, the temperature inside a car can soar to 47°C (117°F) within 60 minutes. It added a dog inside a hot car could suffer heat stroke and said the signs to look out for included heavy panting, profuse salivation, lethargy and lack of co-ordination. A vet should be called to lower the dog's body temperature slowly. Lorna Chadwick, GSPCA animal welfare manager, said: "We do not want to see animals' lives put in danger due to the hot weather and if anyone is concerned about a dog in a hot car or animal at risk please call us on 01481 25726."

The Genesis GV70 is one of our favorite compact luxury SUVs because it expertly balances performance, luxury, and curb appeal. Its sharp exterior design is complemented by a luxury-car interior with lots of available technology. There are models in this segment such as the Porsche Macan that offer more performance but the GV70’s standard turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder and optional twin-turbo 3.5-liter V-6 both provide good power and impressive refinement. Well-equipped and priced more than competitively, the GV70 is a compelling choice—it won a spot on our 10Best list in 2023 and 2024—and the latest updates coming for 2026 to its tech and appearance should only enhance its appeal. There’s also an electric version called the Electrified GV70 that we review separately. What's New for 2026? The big news is the addition of a 27.0-inch widescreen display that stretches across much of the dashboard and serves as both the digital gauge cluster and the central infotainment screen. The climate controls also use a new touchpad lower on the console. On the outside, those with a keen eye will spot tweaks including new headlights, a new grille pattern, new wheel designs, and a few additional visual enhancements for the Sport trim level. Genesis has not yet released any details about mechanical changes to the powertrains or suspension setup. Pricing and Which One to Buy The price of the 2026 Genesis GV70 is expected to start around $48,000 and go up to $69,000 depending on the trim and options.

West Ham have signed Dutch forward Crysencio Summerville from Leeds for a fee in excess of £25m plus add-ons. The 22-year-old has agreed a five-year deal at London Stadium with the option of a further year. "It's the perfect next step for my career," said Summerville. "I'm here to help write more history and I'd love to help West Ham get back into Europe." He made 89 appearances and scored 25 goals in all competitions for Leeds after joining them from Feyenoord in a £1.3m transfer in 2020. West Ham are also close to sealing a £27m deal for Germany striker Niclas Fullkrug from Borussia Dortmund. The Hammers have been linked with numerous players this summer as technical director Tim Steidten attempts to strengthen Julen Lopetegui’s squad. However, Summerville - last term's Championship Player of the Year - emerged as one of their primary targets. "I spoke to the head coach and he convinced me that I could make an impact, and help achieve success in the new season," he added. "I had the feeling that this is the best place for me to continue developing as a player, and to push my potential as much as possible." West Ham, who finished ninth in the Premier League in 2023-24, have already brought in Wolves captain Max Kilman for £40m, goalkeeper Wes Foderingham from Sheffield United and Brazilian winger Luis Guilherme for £25.5m from Palmeiras.

AMD is reportedly preparing to include USB4 support in its AM5 desktop platform, as revealed by the visit of AMD's CEO Lisa Su to Taiwan. AMD Has Been Very Late With USB4 Support On AM5 Desktops; Intel Made it Available Two Years Ago But That's Going To Change Soon! AMD is behind Intel in incorporating Thunderbolt 4 (USB 4) support in its processors. Intel's 11th Generation lineup had gained support for the new USB platform, whereas AMD still hasn't made the feature available on its latest AM5 desktop platform. RELATED STORY Hassan Mujtaba AMD Rumored To Launch Radeon RX 7800 XT & RX 7700 XT GPUs In Late Q3 However, things might change in upcoming AM5 motherboard releases as a report suggests that AMD's CEO Lisa Su paid a visit to a number of Taiwanese manufacturers with the aim of USB4 support on desktop processors. Asmedia, a company well-known in Taiwan for manufacturing motherboard chipsets and USB controllers, is expected to be responsible for Thunderbolt 4 support on future AMD platforms. The company is way ahead of its competitors, especially regarding USB 4 technology, since it has received USB-IF Association certification. Moreover, the company is expected to start mass production of the new USB4 host controllers by next year. Such technologies do show up in refreshed motherboards as we saw with Intel whose board partners are now integrating WIFI 7 & 5.0 GbE LAN on the existing Z790-chipset-based motherboards. For a brief recap on Thunderbolt 4 (USB4) capabilities, the new platform supports up to 40Gbps of transfer speeds. The key difference from previous generations is the inclusion of port expansion since several devices can be linked at a time with a single Thunderbolt 4 dock. We shouldn't expect USB4 support to drop on the AM5 platform until next year unless AMD finds a new vendor. The change will most likely be implemented as a new refresh lineup or included support in next-gen AM5 motherboards which launch alongside the Ryzen 8000 CPU lineup that is also expected next year. link:https://wccftech.com/amds-next-gen-am5-motherboards-to-feature-usb4-support-io-parity-with-intel-platform/

Bungie has in recent years been very aggressive in its pursuit of Destiny 2 cheat makers, and not at all shy about saying so. Based on the opening line of its most recent legal action (via Torrentfreak), filed against the makers and sellers of the Ring-1 cheat, it has no intention of stopping anytime soon. The action actually began in May 2021, when Bungie joined up with Ubisoft to file a joint lawsuit against Ring-1. The two companies reached a settlement with three of the four named defendants in the case in late 2022, but the fourth failed to respond to the suit, and so Bungie and Ubisoft requested a default judgment of $2.2 million. The judge in the case rejected that request, however, ruling that the fourth defendant was "not an original developer of the software or an original participant in the Ring-1 enterprise," but instead appeared to be "akin to a customer service representative." That decision meant the defendant wouldn't have to pay anything. Worse, the Ring-1 website remained online. Sponsored Links If You Need To Relax On Your Computer, You Have To Play This Game. No Install Elvenar The new lawsuit, filed on August 1, names 10 other defendants (most of them by alias) along with 40 "John Does," and it begins with a bang: "The days of Destiny 2 cheaters being free to engage in a wholesale assault on the Destiny 2 game and its community without fear of consequences are over." RECOMMENDED VIDEOS FOR YOU... CLOSE This suit leans heavily into Bungie's previous prior wins over cheat makers, noting that they specifically targeted "the corporate entities and individuals who profit from making, selling, supporting, and otherwise proliferating malicious cheat software." The rulings in those lawsuits "have repeatedly confirmed that the sale and use of cheat software violates a raft of federal and state laws, breaches users’ contracts with Bungie (the Limited Software License Agreement, or 'LSLA,' that governs access to Destiny 2), and is a basis for significant tort liability." Those wins have been widely reported, Bungie said, which means that the Ring-1 defendants are well aware by now that their actions are illegal, and have had more than sufficient time to knock it off voluntarily. And yet they have continued to make and sell their cheat software, "secure in the belief that they can avoid consequences for it." The suit goes on to define the various parties involved, Bungie's efforts to deter cheaters, and Ring-1's persistence in circumventing that work, including copyright infringement, civil RICO [Racketeering Influenced and Corrupt Organizations] violations—wire fraud, criminal copyright infringement, and money laundering—DMCA violations, Computer Fraud and Abuse Act violations, civil conspiracy, and more. Given Bungie's string of wins in court, I would expect this lawsuit to end pretty much the same way: With some spare cash for Bungie, and another cheat maker gone. For now, though, Ring-1 is still online, and still selling "undetected" cheats, for a whopping $59 per month. I would strongly urge you not to indulge. link: https://www.pcgamer.com/bungie-warns-destiny-2-cheat-makers-your-days-of-operating-without-fear-of-consequences-are-over/

A Thai court has ordered the dissolution of the reformist party which won the most seats and votes in last year’s election - but was blocked from forming a government. The ruling also banned Move Forward's charismatic, young former leader Pita Limjaroenrat and 10 other senior figures from politics for 10 years. The verdict from the Constitutional Court was expected, after its ruling in January that Move Forward’s campaign promise to change royal defamation laws was unconstitutional. The court had said changes to the notoriously harsh lese majeste law was tantamount to calling for the destruction of the constitutional monarchy. Wednesday's verdict again serves as a stark reminder of how far unelected institutions are willing to go to preserve the power and status of the monarchy. But the ruling does not mean an end to the reformist movement in Thai politics. The surviving 143 Move Forward MPs are expected to transfer to another registered party and continue their role as the main opposition in parliament. "A new journey has begun. Let’s keep walking together, people," the party said in a message accompanied by a video on its social media platforms. Chaithawat Tulathon, the leader of the opposition and one of the MPs barred from politics, stood up in the chamber and bid farewell to his colleagues, saying it was an "honor" to work with them. This verdict "may raise the question whether Thailand is a constitutional monarchy or an absolute monarchy", said Thitinan Pongsudhirak, professor of political science at Chulalongkorn University. He said it was "deja vu on one hand, and uncharted territory, on the other". This is more or less a repeat of what happened in 2020 when the then Future Forward Party, which had also done unexpectedly well in an election, was also dissolved, and transformed itself into the Move Forward Party. That verdict four years ago ignited huge street protests, led by a new generation of student activists, which lasted for six months and voiced unprecedented demands for the monarchy to be made more accountable. The authorities have since made extensive use of the lese majeste law to prosecute hundreds of protest leaders, including some Move Forward MPs. The law has been widely criticised as stifling freedom of expression in Thailand, and in its manifesto Move Forward had proposed less severe punishments – jail sentences have been as high as 50 years – and a more rigorous process for filing charges. Fears among reformists that Move Forward would not do as well in last year’s election as Future Forward had in 2019 proved unfounded. The party defied expectations to outperform every other party and become the largest in parliament, revealing a strong yearning for change among Thai voters.
