Google updated its augmented reality system to take advantage of the potential of dual cameras to better capture depth when displaying virtual items over the real world. ARCore is the Google platform that allows developers to create augmented reality experiences from a compatible mobile phone, so that the user interacts with visual elements in the real world. This platform was only capable of using one lens even with the multiple camera systems that proliferated in the smartphone market, but the latest update will introduce support for "dual camera stereo depth on compatible devices", as reported by the Android portal. Police. The company also updated the list of ARCore-compatible devices to include the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL, mentioning that dual camera support will be distributed in the coming weeks.

Intel 670p, new M.2 SSDs but based on 144-layer 3D NAND chips It may seem surprising that the Rocket Lake-S are around the corner Intel is launching an M.2 SSD based on PCIe 3.0. The problem with M.2 SSDs based on PCIe 4.0 is the very high price. An M.2 PCIe 3.0 can cost almost half that of a PCIe 4.0. This may have been the point by which Intel has gone from opting for the new communication interface. These new Intel 670p units offer a huge leap from the previous generation. According to Intel, they offer a 38% improvement in read performance and up to 50% improvement in access latency. intel 670p The new Intel 670p drives will arrive in capacities up to 2TB. The simplest model will be the 512GB capacity drive with read speeds of up to 3,000MB / s. The 1TB and 2TB models will offer a read speed of up to 3,500MB / s. Currently Intel offers us the 660p memories, which are the ones that will replace the 670p units. The 512GB drive offers up to 1,600MB / s read, the 1TB drive up to 2,500MB / s and the 2GTB drive up to 2,700MB / s.

Kia's range of SUVs led the company's global sales with models like the Sportage and Seltos selling 26,790 and 26,619 units each, followed by the KIA Rio subcompact sedan with 18,417 units. Sales in Korea Sales in Korea recorded 37,583 units, a 31 percent increase over February 2020. This sharp increase was due to production disruptions that occurred last year amid the Covid-19 pandemic, along with Strong sales this year of the Sedona and K5 models. Sales outside of Korea Compared to February 2020, sales outside of Korea saw an increase of 2.9 percent to 172,594 units, driven by Sportage and Seltos and Kia Rio.

Contradictory versions. Ferraz stands out from the explanation offered yesterday in the surroundings of Koldo García Izaguirre that the PSOE will advance or settle with cash the expenses of José Luis Ábalos associated with his status as Secretary of Organization of the party. ABC revealed on Monday significant details of Minister Ábalos' trip to the Canary Islands in November, given the humanitarian emergency that was being experienced in the Islands due to the massive arrival of immigrants, and which ended up in a luxury hotel with the family on a weekend of the. Ábalos 'advisor carried three envelopes with 2,500 euros in cash inside his backpack, with the labels' Ferraz ',' Ministry 'and' Jose ', to pay Ábalos' expenses. In the environment of the ministerial team it was explained that this practice, according to the testimonies collected by ABC, consists in that both the Ministry and the PSOE advance the "budget items" and then justify them (Ábalos would have maintained party contacts in Tenerife). On other occasions Koldo advances the money from his pocket and then justifies it with the invoices and collects it in cash, both from the Ministry and from the party. But sources from the federal leadership of the PSOE consulted on Monday by ABC deny that explanation. Practically no party leader receives a salary from Ferraz since they do so for their public positions and it is not allowed to collect two payrolls. After accession to the Government in 2018 and the 2019 elections, the bulk of the leadership is in Congress, the Senate or at different levels of Government. In Ferraz they explain that when it comes to expenses associated with his work in the party, they do not have credit cards to cover those expenses and that they work by settling them afterwards. That is, never handing over the cash. "You pay for it and then the game reimburses you if he is justified with a ticket," they officially explain in the game. These settlements also explain that in no case are they made in cash, but rather that they are made through specific deposits in a bank account. In the PSOE they assure that there is "no record" of any operation consisting of handing over money and in no case do they suggest that there is movement of cash. From there, the sources consulted already refer to each person in charge and to his teams how those payments are disbursed. The opposition goes on the attack This case provoked the offensive of the opposition, which immediately demanded the appearance of the head of Transportation in the Congress of Deputies, to explain what cost that trip had, with whom he traveled, and how the expenses were covered. The first to react was the Po[CENSORED]r Party, which was blunt in stating that this case "doesn't smell bad, it stinks." "The friend Koldo, in addition to paying in 500 bills for massages and champagne, advances with his card the travel expenses of his‘ advised ’Ábalos. This does not smell bad. It sucks ", say the po[CENSORED]r ones, who accompany his comment on the social networks of the tag:" # ÁbalosDeluxe ". The spokesperson for the Po[CENSORED]r Group, Cuca Gamarra, warned that "Ábalos cannot remain silent." For this reason, she announced that her group was going to request that same morning his appearance in Congress so that he could give explanations about his "suspicious trip to the Canary Islands." The deputies of the PP Andrés Lorite and Ana Belén Vázquez Blanco registered nine questions to obtain a written response from the Government, in relation to the accommodation, maintenance and leisure expenses, produced during the stay of the Minister of Transport, together with relatives and members of his ministerial cabinet at the Palacio de Isora hotel in Tenerife, in November 2020. The deputies ask for the amount paid by the Ministry on the expenses originated in that stay and ask for details of the payment method used by the Ministry. Vox will ask for the resignation of José Luis Ábalos, following the information published by ABC: «With all certainty, one, two, three, four, five, even up to 52 Vox deputies are right now working to demand the minister's resignation, cease , explanations, why he pays in 500 bills, when, on the other hand, he is promoting legislative initiatives to put an end to cash ». The spokesman for the Political Action Committee, Jorge Buxadé, criticized that "they are still high in their armchairs, it seems, paying with 500 euro bills." The image that should remain is this: Ábalos's escort pays with a single ticket for his parties, with a ticket that is worth more than the thousands of retirement pensions of Spaniards who have given all their lives to raise this nation are worth. It is that Ábalos should already be subject to the judicial investigation and I do not know if he is already in preventive detention for the serious crimes that have been committed. Since the Delcy case, the suitcases give a lot of play and what was inside the suitcases gives even more play, one day we will find out what was in those suitcases and what they have done with them. United We can avoid making assessments and only see a damage at the media level, since they do not consider that any questionable data is revealed. The spokesman for Ciudadanos, Edmundo Bal, said that the case seemed "very suspicious" and the party registered a battery of questions.

The latest regular update of Google's Pixel phones introduces the ability to make and share audio recordings, choose new backgrounds from screen 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 case 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.

Limited production of NVIDIA RTX 3060 Ti graphics cards due to manufacturing costs We currently see an extremely difficult situation in the graphics card market. GPU production would be too low to meet the huge demand. It would all be due to severe component supply issues and cryptocurrency mining. Two major problems have come together that affect the video game market. It is pointed out that assemblers do not assemble and distribute RTX 3060 Ti because it offers a low profit margin. It seems that the problem of these graphs would be in the PCB for the Ampere silicon. This PCB would be much more expensive and complex to manufacture than initially anticipated. Due to this the assemblers would be preferring to manufacture the RTX 3070, which leave more profit margin. Not only that, the MSRP stated by NVIDIA for the RTX 3060 Ti would be a problem for assemblers. It appears that NVIDIA has set very tight prices that barely leave any margins for assemblers. And in particular that of the RTX 3060 Ti would be strangling the assemblers. The assemblers who work with NVIDIA indicate that the prices of 250-300 dollars set by the company are unfeasible. Moreover, they indicate that "they would be bankrupt if they sold them at those prices." The RTX 3070 does not offer this problem as it gives NVIDIA partners higher margins. GamerNexus points out that putting the prices set by NVIDIA would mean a big cut in quality. Cooling should be worsened, VRM quality sacrificed, and other PCB component costs reduced. This could pose a great risk, as it will affect the durability of the graphics. We should note that the NVIDIA RTX 3070 and RTX 3060 Ti have very similar PCBs and are based on the GA104 GPU. The difference between the two graphics models is around $ 100, but the performance is similar. As the RTX 3070 gives more margin, we bet on assembling this graph. It is very understandable that manufacturers sell the most profitable model and avoid losing. Nobody would sell a product at a loss, unless you dedicate yourself to selling consoles and earn the money on the other hand.

Yaris repeats as car of the year 21 years later, just when it has been number 1 in sales in Europe. The new Toyota Yaris, the fourth generation of Toyota's best-selling model in Europe, has been named Car of the Year in Europe 2021. Selected by a jury of 59 specialized journalists from all over Europe, the fourth generation Toyota Yaris receives the Car Of The Year (COTY) award in Europe taking the lead from the innovative first generation, which won the same award 21 years ago. Yaris has been consistently recognized by the jury, being part of the list of finalists for the award in each of its four generations. The COTY jury has praised and distinguished Yaris' Toyota Electric Hybrid technology for its smooth, low-emission and affordable ride, which perfectly illustrates why more than 80 percent of European Yaris buyers choose the hybrid variant. electrical. Yaris has also been recognized for its segment-leading design, dynamic behavior and safety. In addition, the European Car of the Year jury especially appreciated Toyota's success in rekindling the passion for small sports cars with the launch of the GR Yaris. The 2021 Europe Car of the Year award comes just days after the new Yaris was ranked as the best-selling car in Europe for the first time. Toyota Motor Europe (TME) Executive Vice President Matt Harrison was very pleased with the award: “It is a great honor for Toyota and I would like to thank the jury for their consideration and recognition. I would also like to take this opportunity to recognize the passion of our development teams in Europe and Japan. This is the best Yaris of all time and, just as Akio Toyoda intended, it is already putting a smile on our customers' faces ”. Toyota has been awarded the Car of the Year award in Europe three times: Yaris won in 2000, Prius in 2005 and now, again, Yaris has lifted the COTY trophy.

Koldo García Izaguirre is the shadow of Minister Ábalos, of whom he was an escort in times of opposition. A man of the highest confidence -professional and personal- in him, one of his functions is to manage the expenses of the Minister of Transport, the Secretary of Organization of the PSOE and his friend José Luis. One and three. That is why the ministerial advisor always travels with three envelopes in his backpack. Made of transparent plastic, reusable and with a button closure, like a folder, they have a white sticker so as not to confuse them. One says, written in pen, "Ministry"; another, "Ferraz"; and the third, "Jose", without accent, like all the Joses, whom nobody calls Jose. Before the trip he charges them with 2,500 euros in total. As money comes out, receipts, tickets or invoices come in without the minister touching the bills. Koldo doesn't like credit cards and he's not afraid of his backpack being pulled. Because of his size - he was aizkolari, perhaps the only one who felt Spanish on all four sides - and as an expert in fighting techniques, he is not the best target of the thieves. From those envelopes came the 1,800 euros ("it was less", they say without specifying the exact figure) that Koldo García paid in cash at 4:00 p.m. on Sunday, November 22, 2020 at the Palacio de Isora, one of the most po[CENSORED]r hotels Tenerife luxury hotels, to liquidate the extras of the controversial vacations of the minister, family and entourage. But let's not start the story at check-out, but at the beginning. The beggining The Minister of Transport, Mobility and Urban Agenda arrived in the Canary Islands on Thursday, November 19. The head of Maritime Rescue, Sánchez sent him along with the head of Social Security and Migration, José Luis Escrivá, to address what the Government described as a "humanitarian crisis." More than 2,000 immigrants had overflowed the Arguineguín dock, in Gran Canaria, with the avalanche of cayucos that Morocco consented to, if not propitiated. The Africans were overcrowded and the island could not take it anymore, without sufficient material or human resources to serve them. The trip was atypical, since Ábalos arrived in the Canary Islands accompanied by his wife and his two minor children, something exceptional on an official trip by a minister. "José Luis works in Spain from 7 in the morning until 1 the next morning every [CENSORED] day," says a collaborator vehemently, "and in recent months he is trying to spend a little more time with his family." It is for personal reasons, sources consulted by ABC argue. Ábalos' migratory agenda - visit the Maritime Rescue facilities in the Port of Las Palmas and the Maritime Captaincy - began and ended on Friday, November 20, but his cabinet placed a visit to the works on Saturday morning, very opportunely. extension of the Tenerife South airport. This "forced" the holder of the Transport portfolio to change the island, which he took advantage of to stay the weekend on the Tenerife beach of Isora with his family. Thus, on Friday afternoon the entourage checked into one of the best hotels in Tenerife, the Palacio de Isora, a "5-star grand luxury" category. They had six rooms reserved in all: the minister's and his family; that of the director of the Minister's Cabinet, Ricardo Mar; that of the press chief, Alfredo Rodríguez; another for Koldo García and those of the two bodyguards. No one objected to the seamless step of monitoring the humanitarian migrant crisis to the hotel with the largest saltwater infinity pool in Europe. "Does the minister have to go to a pension?" Asks a person from his surroundings. ABC reported on the stay on Wednesday, November 25, three days after the conclusion of the trip and, despite the opinion of Ábalos and his team, a large part of the public opinion did not find that step in the drama of others to their own opulence. The story focused precisely on that dichotomy: taking advantage of an official trip in which a humanitarian crisis was addressed to spend the weekend with the family in the most luxurious hotel in Tenerife. Regarding the costs of this trip, which was official, paid for with public money, and became personal, on the eve of the publication Ábalos categorically refused to offer explanations: “ABC tried several times yesterday to collect the minister's version and contrast the details, mainly the distribution of public and private funds, with José Luis Ábalos' team, but there was no response. Operation save the minister The minister, in theory, gave an order not to make any comment, neither to this newspaper nor to any media after the publication. He believes that in the "Delcygate" it was harmful to speak, so absolute silence. On the other hand, on the day of publication, his press team used allegedly trusted journalists to attack ABC with an old trick: if you can't deny what is published, because it is true, deny what they have not published. The virulence of the operation save Minister Ábalos (in a normal country, a president who takes advantage of a humanitarian emergency to go with his family on vacation to a five-star hotel has his political future more than compromised) showed that we must continue to look towards the future. Isora Palace. ABC requested the breakdown of expenditures, public and private, through the Transparency Portal, since they do not attend to the ordinary route. This newspaper knows of the presence of Koldo García on the trip to the Canary Islands, payments in cash, French champagne, a massage ... but then without confirmation. Transport asked for one more month to respond, claiming "special complexity." They meet at the end of January with three figures that are collected in a few hours. Between Friday 20 and Sunday 22 the Ministry spent 7,150.34 euros on transportation (4,819.74), accommodation (2,155) and food (175.60). They refused to answer the rest of the questions - a lot - but the ridiculous amount of support gave truth to the story of the cash payments. Now we return to the aforementioned 4 in the afternoon of Sunday, November 22. Koldo asks for the bill at reception. The extras add up to almost 1,800 euros. The ex-escort opens the backpack, takes the cue and pays. Ticket upon ticket, to the amazement of those present. Ábalos' advisor asks for invoices and distributes them in the money envelopes: this one for Ferraz, this one for the Ministry, this one for Jose. On February 8, two PP deputies, Andrés Lorite and Ana Vázquez, asked the Government about the presence of Koldo García in the Canary Islands and for the payment of services and drinks in cash. "Koldo is a man of his word, and if someone shows that he has put a euro where he was not he, he resigns," says a person close to the Ábalos advisor. Ferraz The testimonies collected by ABC relate that both the Ministry and the PSOE advance the "budget items" and then justify them (Ábalos would have maintained party contacts in Tenerife). On other occasions Koldo advances the money from his pocket and then justifies it with the invoices or tickets and collects it in cash, both the part of the Ministry and that of the party. The massage is true, the minister gave it to him (and he went to his envelope, they report). The champagne bottles ("two or three" at 75 euros each) too, but Ábalos did not taste them. Koldo requested them to celebrate good news with the bodyguards and they paid "cleavage". In the end, he does the math and distributes the expenses among the occupants of the six rooms, who then give him the money. Koldo is the minister's cashier and man for everything. So much so that the same thing leads him to see Delcy Rodríguez a Barajas who buys him tobacco. Development sources of different political signs confirm that the Ministry does not issue credit cards "to avoid abuse", but that the current minister's behavior "is not normal": "It can be done, but the usual thing is to pay with a card and pay it off , leaving the cash only for small amounts "and" in no case should an advisor finance a minister. " When ABC reported on the trip, a cabinet person asked the Ministry's travel agency to issue the hotel bills and flights for his family in Ábalos' name. For reasons that cannot be explained, there are eleven invoices, one for each charge, instead of a single document with the total of the trip. They total 1,729.35 euros, and Koldo also paid them, but this time with a card. On December 2, a week after this newspaper revealed the trip, Ábalos transferred that amount to his adviser, friend and Renfe advisor, who was so devoted to his boss that he even advanced money.

For the second year running, TennoCon, the event that celebrates all things Warframe, is going all digital. Fret not, however, as the flow of updates continues, with two coming this spring to the ninja game. In the latest devstream, developer Digital Extremes teased what’s coming in a pair of updates due to arrive sometime in spring. The first is Railjack 3.0, promising goodies for Corpus Railjack, and the Command intrinsic, coming to PC first for now. The second is Call of the Tempestarii, previously teased as “so metal, it’s out of control”, bringing a new Warframe Sevagoth, a new Warframe Quest, and Zephyr Deluxe, and that’ll arrive on all platforms when it rolls out. Getting the difficult announcement out of the way, TennoCon 2021 is, once again, taking place entirely on livestream. Digital Extremes is using a work-from-home setup until September this year, and since TennoCon usually takes place in July, that means the conference is remaining all digital. TennoCon 2020 migrated to a digital setup as people around the world were stuck at home due to the ongoing pandemic. Unfortunately, that situation hasn’t meaningfully changed to allow large gatherings yet, meaning another year of E3-esque streams and online conferences. Going a little more in-depth during the video, it’s explained that Intrinsic ranks are being rebalanced in the upcoming updates. The interior of Railjask is getting renovated, and new game modes are coming, as well as some returning. Weapons are getting tweaked, too, to match melee. “We are aware of the current melee meta and are exploring changes to bring our primary and secondary weapons closer in power to Melee,” the devstream post says. “Overall, the goal is not to nerf melee — we have aspects of it we want to tweak, but the majority of our focus is on bringing guns up to its power level!” You can watch the full video here:

At the wheel of a Skoda Fabia Rally2, the Finn was unrivaled on both stages of the day, gaining a 10.9-second lead over his closest rival, Teemu Asunmaa, on the super-fast snow stages. "The day was pretty good, but the conditions were much tougher than we expected," explained Lindholm. "We are in the lead, so in general everything is fine," he added. Estonian star Egon Kaur has split a Finnish-dominated top 5, 10.4 seconds behind Teemu Asunmaa in a Volkswagen Polo, leaving Eerik Pietarinen, fourth, 12.4 seconds behind. Local hero Mikko Heikkilä was 1.2 seconds behind in a similar car. The previous World Rallycross champions Johan Kristoffersson and Mattias Ekström were sixth and seventh respectively. Kristoffersson was the strongest of the Swedish pair and briefly stayed in third position after the first stage with his Polo, while Ekström was simply happy to keep running after his Fabia got stuck in a snowbank in the shakedown this morning. Skoda driver Ville Ruokanen was 1min 27.9s behind the leaders in eighth, closely followed by WRC3 rookie Fabrizio Zaldivar, who finished Friday's day 15.4s away in his similar car. Lithuanian driver Vladas Jurkevičius completed the top ten just 7 seconds behind Zaldivar in another Fabia.

The streets of the center of Barcelona were, once again, last night, the scene of a day of extreme vandalism and violence, starring radicals who even attacked and burned a Urban Guard van, with two local Police officers inside, they had to get out of the official vehicle quickly to avoid personal injury. Convened by the self-appointed Committees for the Defense of the Republic (CDR) and Arran, the youths of the CUP, a party with which ERC is negotiating the formation of the new Catalan Government and parliamentary stability in the new regional legislature after the elections of 14 In February, around half a thousand people gathered in the Plaza Universidad around 7:00 p.m., mostly from various parts of the city, from where they had left in the form of 'columns' and with slogans calling for the end of the democratic regime that had begun. in 1978. The excuse was the imprisonment of rapper Pablo Hasel, convicted of exalting terrorism and insults to the Crown, turned into a champion of an alleged defense of freedom of expression. After 7 pm, the protesters began an erratic tour through the streets of the center of Barcelona with chants such as "Pim, pam, pum, no quedi no un" ("pim, pam, pum, no one left", in a clear reference to Police officers). Attack on the police station Upon reaching La Rambla, the protesters blew up several bank ATMs and reached the Guàrdia Urbana police station, which was also attacked a few days ago by radicals protesting Hasel's imprisonment. It was at that moment, last night, that the most violent and dangerous images were produced. The radicals, almost all hooded, threw all kinds of objects at the police officers who were guarding the police station and the parked vehicles, both the Local Police and the Mossos. After attacking several Urban Guard vans, which they defaced, threw Molotov cocktails and sprayed them with flammable liquid (a material that they have used on other nights to burn garbage containers and motorcycles). Until one of the launches ignited one of the Guàrdia Urbana vans, in which there were two agents. The driver of the vehicle had to exit through the passenger door. The radicals celebrated the flames in the police van, which they accompanied with all kinds of insults towards the agents ("son of a b ... Go, run away, you bastard"). It was only seconds but the worst was feared. Then the sirens of the vans of the Mossos d'Esquadra Brimo (riot control unit that the CUP wants to suppress and that ERC and Junts have been favorable to its modification) that arrived at the police station sounded. They took positions, put out the fire and the protesters continued their march, destroying the street furniture that they found in their path. It was devastating, for example, how they left the Rambla de Catalunya in their wake, after the attack on the police station in the Raval neighborhood. It looked like a pitched battle had occurred, but nothing like that. The Mossos only acted after the attack on the police station and, once dispersed into groups, the arrests began. At the close of this edition, the Autonomous Police reported that there had been ten arrests (for attacks against agents and public disorders). One of the detainees, they pointed out, could be involved in the burning of the Guàrdia Urbana van. The landscape was bleak. Vandalized ATMs, looting, vandalism, street furniture that will have to be repaired ... and an attack on a hotel that they also tried to set on fire. Workers of the establishment (of the NH chain) avoided greater evils, but the window and part of the furniture in the 'hall' were smashed. Everything happened very fast. Before the 10 pm curfew, there were no protesters and there were no further incidents. The balances of Aragonès Unlike what happened in the nights before this Saturday (it goes for a dozen violent days after Hasel's imprisonment), in which Pere Aragonès (ERC), acting president of the Generalitat of Catalonia, shone for his absence, not a single message, it was pronounced last night. He did it, like the rest of the political leaders, through Twitter. Aragonès maintained the equidistance of what he knows that the protesters were from "his own" and after defending freedom he criticized "acts of vandalism" and "violence." "The looting or destruction of shops, the burning of furniture or the attack on public workers are neither freedom of expression nor of demonstration," he said. Salvador Illa (PSC) was shown without hesitation, who sent all his support to the Mossos and the Urban Guard, and to the rest of the local police (there were also incidents in Sabadell). "Our unqualified condemnation of acts of vandalism and gratuitous and unjustified violence," said the leader of the PSC. In the same way, Ada Colau, Carlos Carrizosa (Cs), Óscar Ramírez (PP) and Manuel Valls, among others, regretted what happened.

With hardware becoming ever more powerful, even the most affordable laptops and computers now boast plenty of firepower. However, for users to reap the benefits of performance increases at a hardware level, applications must also be optimized to take advantage. According to software firm Ekioh, this particular dynamic is standing in the way of significant improvements in the web browsing experience, with maximum speeds and overall smoothness limited by the way the current crop of browsers are built. All of today’s most po[CENSORED]r services (the likes of Google Chrome, Safari and Edge) share a similar architecture, poorly optimized for modern hardware. However, the lack of a genuine challenger in the market means these incumbents are not incentivized to act. Here's our list of the best VPN services out there We've built a list of the best anonymous browsers around Check out our rundown of the best secure routers right now “Today’s browsers are inherently single-threaded,” explained Stephen Reeder, Commercial Director at Ekioh. “So if you’re running on multi-core silicon, you’re only using one of those cores.” “With multi-tabbed browsing, each tab has its own thread. But when you’re using a browser to render an application or display an interface there’s only one thing on screen, so what you really want is for all of that processing power to be put to use.” The nature of the problem means there is no quick fix that Google or any other major player could apply. The only solution, says Reeder, is to develop an all-new web browser from the ground up, with the express intention of optimizing for the latest silicon. Reinventing the web browser Until recently, Ekioh has operated exclusively in the embedded market, with its browser software deployed behind the scenes in TVs and other smart technology. In other words, you may well have used an Ekioh browser before, just without knowing it. Now, however, the company is throwing its weight behind a new piece of software, called Flow, that it hopes can redefine established norms when it comes to browser architecture. Unlike Chrome, Safari and the like, Flow is a multithreaded browser capable of making full use of multi-core silicon. It also uses the GPU for all rendering activity, which is more memory efficient and keeps the CPU free for execution. While the performance of traditional web browsers is capped, because they are able to utilize only a single processor core, the performance of Flow scales automatically as the number of CPU and GPU cores increases. According to Reeder, the difference is most stark in scenarios that involve a complex user interface or intensive animation. “If you imagine four pieces of text on the screen at the same time, on a quad core processor multithreaded layout means you can lay out all four in parallel. Whereas with a single-threaded browser, you can only lay them out one at a time,” he explained. “And if you’re animating on-screen, as most UIs and many web pages do, there’s a limit to the number of things you can achieve between animation frames. If you want the UI to look smooth, you have to get all the animation work done before the next frame is due to be rendered.” With a multithreaded layout, however, more can be accomplished in those gaps, which paves the way for smoother animation and richer interfaces. While it’s possible for major players to retrofit GPU rendering onto their existing browsers, as Firefox has done with its new web render model, adopting a multithreaded architecture would mean starting again from scratch. And until it becomes sensible to do so from an economic perspective, the world’s most po[CENSORED]r browsers are likely to remain just as they are. A proof of concept The value proposition of a multithreaded browser is dual-faceted: users can make full use of powerful hardware, but owners of machines with limited resources also benefit from greater memory efficiency. To demonstrate the value of Flow in low-resource use-cases, Ekioh built a proof of concept for the Raspberry Pi 400 (now available on all Pi models), which proved to be over six times faster than Chromium by the MotionMark benchmark. On the Raspberry Pi Zero, meanwhile, which has just 512MB RAM, Flow blows Chromium out of the water; the latter is simply far too memory intensive for the system to handle. However, while exciting, the browser preview isn’t compatible with all websites and neither does it support a few key functionalities, such as video playback. The point, according to Reeder, was simply to highlight what multithreaded browsers could one day be capable of. “We’re not in a position where we’re knocking on Google’s door, saying ‘we’re about to displace you in the browser market’. The preview was about putting Flow out there onstage and starting a conversation about how browsers might evolve in the future.” Indeed, there are no concrete plans in place to release a version of Flow for desktop operating systems. This is partly because variations in consumer hardware mean Ekioh would struggle to guarantee consistent performance and partly because the firm has none of the arrangements in place that allow free desktop browsers to generate income. But never say never, says Reeder, who hopes Flow will at least make the incumbents sit up and take notice. “One of the things that’s bad for the industry is browser mono-culture; if the entire world is served solely by [browsers like Google Chrome], new features will be added all the time but unused ones won’t be deprecated. What you end up with is a very large and slow product,” he said. “Why should anyone be interested [in Flow] now? It’s the new terrier rapping at the ankles of established players. And the end result will be an improvement for everybody.” Here's our list of the best proxy services right now

PowerColor announces its new range of Hellhound graphics cards The PowerColor brand distributes only AMD GPU-based graphics cards. He is an exclusive assembler from AMD with a long history. The Red Devil and Red Dragon models are highly regarded by users. Now seek to offer a more economical and accessible solution for users. Hellhound appears to be a range of products that competes with Sapphire, another exclusive assembler from AMD. Sapphire is known for being the AMD graphics assembler that offers the best prices. So the idea of PowerColor is to compete in the range of economic solutions, since the highest range has it well tied. Everything suggests that PowerColor's Hellhound brand debuted with the launch of the RX 6700 XT. Surely the heatsink will be a double fan and it will be cut in terms of RGB, mainly. These models may lack a backplate to minimize costs.

Google is currently working on the development of its platform for smart TVs Google TV, which will have a basic mode, with which it will precisely allow users to disable smart functions. Google TV, which was announced in September last year, provides recommendations for streaming content based on other platforms and recreates the search experience, making it easier for users to discover personalized content with recommendations from YouTube TV and television channels and services. external like Netflix. Now, Google has announced to the 9to5Google portal a new function that will arrive together with Google TV, Basic TV, a basic mode for televisions that could also reach other devices such as sound bars. The basic mode of Google TV is an option that users can choose and that disables all smart functions of the TV, present in the standard mode of the platform. The Google TV system is divided into five sections: applications, content recommendations, the Google Assistant, live television and external HDMI connections. The basic settings reduce the options on the Google TV home screen, showing only a few icons for functions such as HDMI connections, live TV, menu access, time and a link to ambient mode, which displays wallpapers.

The arrival of AMD Ryzen processors on the market has changed the way it is. Intel will soon make the leap to MCM processors with Alder Lake-S chips. But meanwhile AMD continues to work on improving the performance of its processors. This is why AMD releases the new AGESA 1.2.0.1 microcode for Ryzen 5000 processors. For those who do not know what the AGESA microcodes are, it is the code on which the Ryzen BIOS are built. What this firmware allows is to improve the processor support for the different families of chipsets. They also offer other capabilities such as performance improvements, support for technologies such as Resizable BAR, among others. This new AGESA 1.2.0.1 microcode implements SMART technology false error correction for M.2 NVMe SSDs that implement SK Hynix memory chips. Also fixes a bug that intermittently detected M.2 SSDs via SATA interface. Some improvements have also been integrated. Improved stability of disabled cores on AMD Ryzen 5 5600X and Ryzen 7 5800X processors under AMD Ryzen Master software. It is not a fairly common practice, but it is interesting for overclocking. Additionally, the bandwidth of the L3 cache has been improved, practically doubling the speed, with the consequent improvement in performance. This improvement has been under the AIDA64 benchmark, so it is not known if this improvement will work outside of said software. Predictably within two weeks or more we should start seeing new BIOSes with AMD microcode. It will be a matter of waiting for MSI, ASUS, ASRock or Gigabyte to launch the new BIOS. Then you simply have to go to the website of the manufacturer of your motherboard and download and install the new BIOS.

The Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, Mohamed bin Salman, "approved an operation in Istanbul (Turkey) to capture or kill journalist Jamal Khashoggi." This is the assessment that the United States intelligence services collect in a report declassified this Friday by the Joe Biden Administration. The report is known the day after the US president spoke by phone with King Salman, to whom he showed his intention to work for a bilateral relationship "as strong and transparent as possible," according to the subsequent statement from the White House. He also stressed his defense of human rights, although the official note does not mention Khashoggi's name. The news website ‘Axios’ had advanced that the report would be released last Wednesday and that it would coincide with the conversation between Biden and the Saudi monarch. However, the White House has finally delayed the release of the document pointing to the country's strongman until after the two heads of state held the conversation to cushion the impact. Already in 2019, it was known that a CIA report concluded that Prince Bin Salman was ultimately responsible for the death of the journalist, who was writing a column in the newspaper "The Washington Post." Likewise, a UN investigation established that the murder of Khashoggi was the result of "an elaborate plan" and "premeditated" under the supervision of senior officials of the Saudi crown, and pointed to the responsibility of Bin Salman. The version of the report now declassified by the US indicates to 21 individuals that US intelligence has "high confidence" that they were accomplices or responsible for the death of Khashoggi on behalf of Prince Bin Salman. "Support for violent measures against dissidents" "We consider that the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia Mohamed bin Salman approved an operation in Istanbul (Turkey) to capture or kill the Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi," the Office of the Director of National Intelligence of the United States states in the report, which is posted on their website. “We base this assessment on the Crown Prince's control of decision-making in the Kingdom, the direct involvement of a key adviser and members of Mohamed bin Salman's protection service in the operation, and the Crown Prince's support for the use of violent measures to silence dissidents abroad, including Khashoggi, "he says. Likewise, the document highlights that Bin Salman has in his hands since 2017 "absolute control of the Kingdom's security and intelligence organizations, making it highly unlikely that Saudi officials would have carried out an operation of this nature without the authorization of the Prince. Inheritor". Riyadh has denied any involvement of the heir to the crown, the de facto ruler of Saudi Arabia. Biden reveals with the publication of the declassified report the turn in the close relationship that Donald Trump had with Riyadh, although the new president tries to ensure that his new attitude does not mean losing a key ally in the troubled Middle East region . The president wants to resume the 2015 nuclear agreement with Iran, the main rival of the Saudis in the area, while stressing to Riyadh the defense of human rights and withdrawing support in the Yemen war.
