[News] Biden offers the help of the US Navy to free the Suez Canal
SougarLord posted a topic in News
The president of the United States has offered his help to unblock the container ship Ever Given, which has been blocking the Suez Canal since last Wednesday. "We have equipment and capabilities that most countries do not have, and we are seeing what kind of help we can offer," Joe Biden told reporters upon his arrival in the state of Delaware on Friday, where he has the private residence of he. The seaway connecting the Red Sea and the Mediterranean, key to world trade, has been blocked by technical or human error. While the causes of the grounding are being resolved, the US Navy has already expressed its willingness to cooperate to free the freighter in that Egyptian area. The US armed forces have a presence on both African coasts and in the Mediterranean, and could move into the canal relatively quickly. Central Command US Central Command spokesman Captain Bill Urban said in a statement: "We have offered assistance, we are ready to help Egypt, and we can respond to any specific request we receive." The US Central Command is the one with military powers over operations in the Middle East and Egypt, although not in the rest of the African continent. The White House itself confirmed Friday that it had offered Egypt help to remove the ship and get maritime traffic flowing again. "As part of our diplomatic dialogue with Egypt, we have offered assistance to the Egyptian authorities to help reopen the canal," Presidential spokeswoman Jen Psaki told a news conference. "We are consulting with our Egyptian partners on how we can better support their efforts," she added. Relations between Washington and Cairo have been affected by the replacement in the White House. Donald Trump had excellent relations with Egyptian President Abdelfatá al Sisi, whom he used to refer to as his "favorite dictator." The Biden Administration came in promising a greater emphasis on respect for human rights, something that has delayed direct contact between the two leaders and has significantly cooled bilateral relations. -
Discord has opened bids to see who buys it, and Microsoft is interested. There is nothing official, and there may be more interested buyers. Discord came out several years ago as a better alternative for text communication, video calls, and voice calls. It allows you to create dedicated communities with many information channels, upload files and more elements to make it more attractive. Now, Discord is looking for buyers and this sale could be to Microsoft. After Skype, Discord could be the next Microsoft communication program Various sources close to the news have been leaking the fact that Discord may have been in meetings with Microsoft for a future purchase. And the deal could exceed $ 10 billion. But not that sale of Discord to Microsoft would not be imminent nor would it be announced in the next few days to go forward. Sources claim that Discord would rather go public than sell to a sole owner. If so, they would be accountable to investors and shareholders and would have to present a viable and forward-looking business model. That would mean substantial changes that could be unpo[CENSORED]r with the many Discord communities. The fact that Microsoft wants to take over Discord would be a sign that it has not been able to handle Skype and adapt it to the new times. While Skype is still a widely used tool for face-to-face family and professional conversations, its use as more than just chat, video calls, and group conversations with dedicated friends pales in the face of Discord. If Microsoft bought it, it could end support for Skype as it already did with MSN Messenger by having a more attractive messaging service for everyone. You could also integrate Discord within Microsoft services and offer Nitro within Game Pass to make the offer more attractive and even raise the price.

Intel is about to launch its Rocket Lake line of high-end desktop processors. It will be for the high-end Core i9, i7 and i5 families. But for its Intel Core i3 lineup, Intel will offer revamped Comet Lake products with a speed cap. The Comet Lake Refresh line isn't really big - it contains six quad-core Core i3 models for desktops and a dual-core Core i3 SKU for ultrathin laptops. These have already been put to the test by Asian bloggers and have given their impressions. Intel's Comet Lake refreshes are slightly better than the originals Many experienced hardware users from Asia have already been able to put Intel's range of Rocket Lake CPUs to the test. The key models of the refurbished Comet Lake family they have been able to test out are as follows: Core i3-10105 Core i3-10305 Core i3-10325 Core i3-10305T Core i3-10105F Core i3-10105T. The main difference between the refurbished Intel Core i3 Comet Lake and the original Intel Core i3 Comet Lake is a speed increase of about 100 MHz for the base and maximum turbo frequencies on the refurbished model. The Core i3-10325 runs at 3.90 GHz - 4.70 GHz, only 100 MHz higher than the Core i3-10320. This is because improvements in processing technology have allowed Intel to increase speed without affecting performance in a model that is only one year old. In February, the Core i3-10105F arrived in Malaysia, even though these new CPUs are not available. A Chinese blogger has managed to get samples of Intel Confidential from the Core i3-10105 and Core i3-10325 and even checked them out. The new Core i3-10325 is 1.4% to 2.5% faster than its predecessor in Cinebench R23 and 1.3% faster in 3DMark Time Spy Extreme. In other tests, the advantage of the new over the predecessor model was even less remarkable.

Today Wednesday March 24 marks 20 years since Apple launched the first public version of its Mac OS X operating system, for its Mac computers. This software was not only important because it remained in force until 2020, with the launch of Big Sur, but because it marked the return to the company of its co-founder, Steve Jobs. On March 24, 2001, Apple renewed its Mac OS operating system with the launch of its tenth version, Mac OS X, which it had introduced the previous year and gradually extended. This system was not just another version, but it was a complete revision of the system that Mac computers had used until then since 1984. The development of the system did not come only from Apple, but in 1996 it had to buy another company specializing in ‘software’: NeXT, the company that Steve Jobs founded in 1985, shortly after leaving Apple. Mac OS X incorporated a large part of the technologies that NeXT had developed for its NeXTSTEP operating system, and it was the first operating system based on the Unix family, also based on the code of a system developed by the University of Berkeley (United States). . The purchase of NeXT and the return of Steve Jobs to the company marked the return of the American executive to the position of CEO of the company, replacing Gil Amelio. Mac OS X versions The first version of Mac OS X came to users with a design remarkably similar to earlier Apple systems, with one version, Aqua, using primarily blue elements. The following successor systems to Mac Os X went on to adopt English animal names - Cheetah, Panther, Tiger, Leopard, Snow Leopard, Lion, Mountain Lion, Maverick (2013) - while since 2014 they became known as regions and features California geographic areas: Yosemite, El Capitan, Sierra, High Sierra, Mojave, and Catalina. Mac OS X and later versions released by Apple continued until macOS Catalina, in 2019, which was the last stable version. The 20-year-old software also influenced the design of Apple's later operating systems, such as iOS for iPhones and iPads, watchOS for its watches, and tvOS for televisions. Unveiling macOS Big Sur at the 2020 WWDC developer event, the company claimed to have made "the biggest design update since the introduction of Mac OS X," so its launch marks the end of the Mac OS X legacy. on Apple computer systems.

RGB and cooling, united in a very durable GPU AORUS Radeon RX 6700 XT ELITE graphics card adopts GIGABYTE WINDFORCE 3X cooling system, with which it simultaneously uses the three unique blade fans, the reciprocating spin, the composite copper heat pipes in direct contact with the GPU, active 3D fans and “Screen Cooling” to regulate the temperature of the graphics card. This provides efficient heat dissipation to maintain a low temperature for higher and more stable performance. The middle fan rotates in the reverse direction to optimize airflow for heat dissipation, and the Screen Cooling system extends the heat sink to allow airflow to pass through. This card uses a graphene nano lubricant to extend the life of the fan 2.1 times by increasing the life of the double ball bearing and eliminating all noise. It is coupled with a load balancing and overheating protection design for each MOSFET. The metal backplate reinforces the overall structure of the graphics card and prevents the PCB from bending or being damaged. Lastly, the power indicator will alert gamers with a flashing light when they experience any abnormality in the power supply.

The Missouri plant, which employs 3,861 people, produces GMC Canyon and Chevrolet Colorado pickup trucks as well as Chevy Express and GMC Savana vans. GM informed its employees that van production will not be affected by the chip shortage. GM's announcement comes just hours after Honda announced that it will extend the suspension of some of its North American production plants due to a lack of microprocessors and other supply problems, local media reported. The suspension of Wentzville pickup truck production will begin on March 29 and will last at least two weeks. Meanwhile, the Lansing assembly plant in Michigan, which stopped producing vehicles on March 15 due to a shortage of chips, will maintain the hiatus for another two weeks. Lansing produces high-end automobiles, such as the Chevrolet Camaro and the Cadillac CT4 and CT5. GM also announced that it will advance by two weeks a stoppage that was planned in Wentzville and that will now take place between May 24 and July 19. GM, America's leading automaker, has been suspending or reducing production at its factories for months in the face of chip shortages affecting the entire auto industry. Since February, GM has suspended or reduced production at plants in the US, Mexico, Brazil, South Korea and Canada. The company is prioritizing the production of the most profitable vehicles, such as pickup trucks and large SUVs. This Wednesday GM reaffirmed this policy by stating in a statement that it "continues to take advantage of available semiconductors to produce and market our most po[CENSORED]r and demanded products, including large SUVs and trucks." The company has already warned that the problems caused by the lack of processors could cut its profits this year by 2 billion dollars, an amount that will increase if the situation persists.

A container ship of Panamanian origin has been blocking the Suez Canal since Wednesday morning, where an operation has been launched to unblock the important trade route, one of the busiest in the world, where dozens of ships are waiting for it to be resolved. the problem, authorities have reported. One of the first consequences of this blockade is the rise in the price of oil, since several oil tankers circulate through this channel daily. Fears of supply problems are causing crude oil prices to rise by up to 5%. Admiral Ossama Rabie, president of the Egyptian Suez Canal Authority, specified in a statement that the "rescue units and tugboats of the Authority will continue their efforts" to unblock the freighter. Wind and sand The more than 219,000-ton ship, which was heading to Rotterdam from Asia, came to a standstill after being hit by a gust of wind, as she had just passed through the southern entrance of the Suez Canal, according to the Vesselfinder page. "The ship ran aground accidentally, probably after being hit by a gust of wind," Evergreen Marine Corp. told AFP. A sandstorm contributed to the accident. According to maritime sources, thirty ships have been detained at the northern entrance of the Canal, and another three in the south.

Facebook announced yesterday that it will once again hold its annual F8 developer conference this year, which it canceled last year due to the Covid-19 pandemic and fear of possible infections. The event, which will only last one day, will take place on June 2 and will be exclusively virtual. The conference will not feature a speech from its co-founder and CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, as is usual, although it is not ruled out that the manager may make some kind of appearance. The intention of the company is to "recognize" the work of the Facebook community, which in the last year "allowed the growth of companies of all sizes to adapt to a changed world and accelerate their digital transformation," according to Konstantinos Papamiltiadis, vice president of platform associations, who will be in charge of the opening of the event, which this year will be called F8 Refresh, and will host the novelties developed by the company for its different services, as well as technical sessions, demonstrations and panels. Both Facebook and Google canceled their respective developer conferences (F8 and I / O, respectively) last year because of the coronavirus. Apple was the only one that went ahead with theirs, albeit in virtual format. For now, only the social network, which usually brings together more than 5,000 developers in its conference, has confirmed the celebration of its event this year. What is still unknown is what issues the company will address. As TechCrunch points out, the issues on the table are whether or not it will launch a response to emerging voice apps like Clubhouse, how it plans to diversify its business beyond advertising, and where its Diem cryptocurrency and digital wallet are at. I did not see. It is also possible that new tools will be revealed to prevent the misuse of the social network, which will be reproached for not doing enough to avoid hateful content and false information. The conference will also be the first to be held by Facebook after it received lawsuits in the US at the end of last year by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the attorneys general of 46 states and two US territories. UU for alleged anti-competitive practices.

Given the shortage of cutting-edge graphics made by those who make a living from mining, AMD is not going to limit it in its RDNA graphics. Their position is totally opposite to that of NVIDIA, who have tried by all possible means. It is cryptocurrency miners who are making many professional and home users unable to easily access graphics cards like NVIDIA's RTXs or AMD's RDNAs. Its ability to process data and handle high information makes the graphs attractive if you are going to mine cryptocurrencies such as Ethereum. AMD still does not limit the mining capacity of its RDNAs NVIDIA has wanted its high-end RTX graphics cards to have a workload limiter to try and stop mining. They were doing well until they accidentally released a driver that removes that limitation. On the contrary, AMD stands against this limitation. AMD's Nish Neelalojanan answered with a blunt "no" when asked about the possibility of limiting cryptocurrency mining on his charts. They will not do it in cryptocurrency mining, or in any other type of work for the graph. RDNA was designed from the ground up for gaming and RDNA 2 doubles down on this. Infinity Cache and a smaller bus width were carefully chosen to achieve a very specific game success rate. However, mining specifically enjoys, or scales with, greater bandwidth and bus width, so there will be limitations from an architectural level to the mining itself. Nish Neelalojanan of AMD With this, they make RDNA 2 AMDs not particularly highly desired for scale mining. They are not the most effective for Ethereum mining and that limitation is already included in their architecture.

This innovative proposal complements the other models in its compact range (Mégane, Kadjar and Scénic) and focuses on the exceptional growth of the SUV market, especially that of the C segment. SUV bodies are the best-selling in the Spanish market, and already represent more than 50% of total sales. The C-SUV segment, specifically, occupies more than 25 percent of the absolute market in our country, being the most important in volume individually. New Arkana becomes part of the most innovative part of the segment: the incorporation of the SUV Coupé concept, until now exclusive to the upper segments. With the New Arkana, Renault proposes a new generation SUV with a strong hybrid personality, both in its style and in its engines. Thus, by combining a high driving position that conveys a feeling of security, great habitability and a generous boot volume, with an elegant and innovative sporty style, this new vision of the SUV concept is more exciting and dynamic, which corroborates the design of its RS Line version. New Arkana also stands out in terms of safety, achieving the maximum 5-star rating in the Euro NCAP crash tests. At the same time, it benefits from a range of multi-character hybrid engines, consisting of the cutting-edge 145 hp E-TECH Hybrid engine and the 1.3 TCe engine with micro-hybrid technology and additional 12V battery in the 140 hp version, which will be expanded with another 160 hp engine equipped with this technology from October 2021. New Renault Arkana has been designed to meet the varied expectations of international markets and represent the Group's global approach, as well as its ability to accelerate the conquest of new markets. It is a global vehicle with technical features adapted to each region. In Europe, New Arkana is based on the Alliance's modular CMF-B platform, also used in the latest generations of Clio and Captur. Like the Renault Samsung Motors XM3, the New Renault Arkana is manufactured at the Busan plant in South Korea. Orders can be placed in Spain from March 24, 2021 and marketing will begin at that time for TCe versions with micro-hybrid technology and in June for E-TECH Hybrid versions.

A scientific team led by researchers from the Center for Astrobiology (CAB, CSIC-INTA), has drawn the most detailed map to date of massive blue stars in the solar neighborhood, discovering in it a hidden structure, baptized as the Cepheus spur. This structure extends over the galactic plane connecting the spiral arm of Orion with that of Perseus. Massive blue stars (also known as OB stars) have a peculiarity that makes them especially interesting to astrophysicists: they have a short-lived life of a few million years. Thus, just as the dating of rocks reveals the level of geological activity of a planet, the presence of OB stars in the Milky Way is an indicator of activity in our galaxy, since they reveal regions of star formation. Where we find them we can say that the galaxy is "alive", as new stars are forming. It also happens that these short-lived stars do not have time to move away from the areas where they are born, the spiral arms, so they are excellent references for mapping these galactic structures. To this end, a team of researchers led by the Center for Astrobiology (CAB, CSIC-INTA) has carried out an exhaustive update of the ALS (Alma Luminous Stars) catalog, the largest existing catalog of massive OB stars in our galaxy, which has with almost 20,000 objects. For months, researchers have crossed the old data from each star with the data recently obtained from ESA's Gaia mission, obtaining a completely up-to-date catalog. The new data, recently published in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society (MNRAS), has allowed the team to draw the most detailed map of the spiral arms of the Milky Way for the first time. Above the galactic plane The map is so precise that it has allowed the scientific team to discover something that no one has seen before: a branch of our spiral arm (that of Orion) about 10,000 light-years long that extends outward in the direction of the next arm ( that of Perseus), also rising above the plane of the Galaxy. Researchers have named this newly discovered structure "the Cepheus spur": spur because it is how they are called this type of structure between arms and Cepheus because it is the constellation where it is most prominent. “It is interesting to note that the huge amount of data obtained with the Gaia mission and the use of statistical tools has allowed us to draw interesting general conclusions about our environment, such as indications of the warping of our galaxy (like a plank that has been warped by humidity) and the corrugations (contractions) of the disk, which are probably relics of the convulsive evolution of the Milky Way, ”says Michelangelo Pantaleoni, CAB researcher and lead author of the study.
