First, the news in four sentences 1. Donald Trump and Joe Biden are done with their final frenzy of campaigning, but with so many votes cast early or mailed in, the real battle might be whether all those votes will count or be challenged in court. 2. It wouldn't be the 2020 election without celebrities getting political: Lady Gaga and John Legend turned up for Joe Biden and Lil Pump appeared at a rally with Donald Trump, who mistakenly called him Liddle Pimp (the rapper did not appear to mind). 3. An early result is already in from the tiny town of Dixville Notch, New Hampshire, and it gave its five votes to Joe Biden, but do not read too much into this because a candidate with an early lead could lose it as postal votes are counted - here's our guide to the night. 4. But America is anxious and one real symptom is the fact that shops are being boarded up for fear of unrest at the result - although some authorities have downplayed the risk of this. Tense? Nervous? Try this... Anxious. Agony. Pressure. Nervous. Nightmare. Furious. Panic. Those are just a a selection of words taken from today's headlines in US news outlets across the political spectrum. On Google, people are searching for news of cities being boarded up and "how to cope with election anxiety". But despite the virus and a campaign unprecedented in its bitterness, there have been moments of humanity, dancing, dogs and cookies. Dixville dog kills the cynicism Dixville Notch is always one of the first towns to declare. It's easy because there are only 12 residents. They all vote in a special "ballot room" just after midnight and then the result is announced hours before that of most other places. You might be tempted to roll your eyes at some hokey political theatre, but a dog in the ballot room killed the cynicism of at least one journalist. Trump supporter replaces neighbour's Biden sign "It's just nice to know that neighbours can treat each other with love and respect." In a little Trump-supporting neighbourhood of Wisconsin, a lone Biden supporter had his Biden sign stolen... which is when his Trump-supporting neighbour stepped in to go out and replace the sign. "I'd do the same for you," he was told. When Republican Marne Litton wrote on Facebook about how much she loved and respected her Democrat neighbour Tasha Hancock, it prompted an outpouring of warmth. Dancing at the polls As citizens lined up to vote in Philadelphia, there was music and dancing - arranged by non-partisan group Joy to the Polls, which says it aims to de-escalate tension and bring music to polling locations. The group can also be found on Spotify with celebrity-curated playlists and it has called on ordinary voters to add their own too. In Portland, eat lobster while you wait It's voting day, and there is lobster in Portland, Maine. There have been some very long queues and some very hungry voters, but Chefs for the polls has been delivering food to waiting voters - one of several similar initiatives. Paul Rudd's cookies Last week while New Yorkers were queuing up to vote actor Paul Rudd handed out cookies - they had blueberry cream and made people happy. And if you are just looking for escape while you wait: One Twitter user has offered to draw your cats in undignified situations, based on photographs you submit.

ASRock has just revealed its first RX 6000-series graphics cards based on AMD's RDNA2 architecture called the ASRock RX 6800 and ASRock RX 6800 XT -- no fancy names for these cards. ASRock's RX 6800 and 6800 XT are not custom-made but are instead designed around AMD's reference specifications. So far, the company has yet to reveal any custom-designed variants. This is normal operation for AIB (add-in board) partners, AMD (and Nvidia previously) allows reference design for its GPUs to be manufactured by its partners and sold under the partner's brand. ASRock RX 6800 The RX 6800 will be AMD's lowest-end card, for now, tackling the best graphics cards in the budget category with 60 CUs, 16GB of GDDR6, a boost frequency of up to 2,105 MHz and a TDP of 250W. ASRock's RX 6800 reference card features AMD's triple slot cooler design measuring 267 x 120 x 40mm. Not much is known about the heatsink design. All we know is the heating is fully open on the side, which is where all the air will exhaust after the intake fans push air through the heatsink. Aesthetically, this is one of AMD's best-looking designs. The shroud is matte black on the edges and accompanied by a center strip of silver where the three fans are located. Red lines outline the side, with a Radeon logo in the middle. The card features two 8-pin power connectors at the edge. ASRock RX 6800 XT For the RX 6800 XT from Asrock, AMD's reference cooler is widened by an additional 10mm to make more room for cooling,. Besides that, it has the same height and length as the RX 6800 reference cooler. Aesthetically, the card is a touch different as well. The silver strip in the middle of the shroud is slightly thinner at the edges compared to the ASRock RX 6800, but in the middle, the XT gains a more aggressive angle shaped like an X. There are no other identifiable changes. The RX 6800 XT will be AMD's answer to Nvidia's RTX 3080. It'll arrive with 72 CUs, boost frequency of 2,250 MHz and 300W TDP. If you want to get your hands on one of these cards, the official launch date for AMD Big Navi is November 18.

It's unclear if or when Sundered Grove, the new Risk of Rain 2 map, will hit consoles. Developer Hopoo Games has rolled out a brand-new update for Risk of Rain 2 on PC that adds another location to explore and fixes a variety of bugs. The full patch notes are outlined below. The headlining feature of the update is the addition of a new stage. Titled Sundered Grove, the map looks like an ominous overgrowth of glowing mushroom-like stalks littering the area. It's unclear if or when Sundered Grove will arrive in the console versions of Risk of Rain 2. Now Playing: Top New Game Releases On PS5, Series X/S, Switch, And PC This Month -- November 2020 The update also addresses some bugs in Risk of Rain 2, including issues with the final boss' shockwaves firing an additional time. Other fixes include bringing the cursor back for gamepad users while navigating the info and scoreboard menus, updating the music to make it closer to the original soundtrack masters, and ironing out some ragdoll physics. This is the second update Risk of Rain 2 has received since it exited Steam Early Access in August. The 1.0 update added a new playable character, an additional boss, and more. Full Risk of Rain 2 Update 1.0.2.1 Patch Notes Major Content: New Stage: Sundered Grove Bug Fixes: Fixed Eclipse 3 modifiers applying to enemies. Fixed the final boss' shockwaves being fired an extra time for each remote client in the game. Fixed some floating nodes in Sundered Grove. Restored the cursor for gamepad users while in the info/scoreboard menu. Updated all music tracks to be more similar to the OST version. Updated a lot of localization strings. Fixed throwing Forgive Me Please off a cliff causing it to not release its deployable slot until the next stage. Fixed monsters revived via Dio's Best Friend potentially respawning into out-of-bounds kill zones that make them miss the trigger, never die again, and potentially cause a softlock in this way if they are a boss. Added temporary safety mechanism that forces client bodies to reinitialize into valid states if they are still in an invalid state one second after spawning. Fixed ragdolling causing the hurtboxes of dead characters to become re-enabled (yes, the brass contraption ragdoll + melee bug is finally dead!).

LONDON (Reuters) - In a corner of north London, a new gleaming butchers is preparing to open. The only thing it lacks is meat. To coincide with Sunday’s World Vegan Day, Britain’s first permanent vegan butcher, Rudy’s, is opening, set to sell meat-free versions of traditional products such as baycon, soysage and turk’y. Demand for vegan products has surged in recent years in Britain, with increasing numbers of people cutting out animal-derived ingredients completely, while others reduce the amount of meat and dairy they consume each week. “People understand what it is that we’re selling,” co-founder Matthew Foster told Reuters. “It’s all designed to emulate meat. It tastes like meat, it’s got meat-like texture.” Law firm EMW reported a 128% jump in new trademarks registered for vegan food in the UK last year, with both large corporates and small companies registering such trademarks as vegan ice cream and pastries. The team behind the new butchers started out in 2017 with a vegan diner and are now looking to offer goods, including whole dinner kits to be made in the home. The substitutes, set out in the brightly lit shop with white walls and sketches of animals on the walls, are made from soya and seitan. The surge in demand for alternative food products has recently sparked a debate over whether restaurants and shops should be allowed to label products as “veggie burgers” or “vegan sausages” or whether it can confuse the consumer. Lawmakers in the European Union ruled earlier in October that banning such terms, as advocated by farmers, would discourage consumers from shifting to more plant-based diets

The big rig is ready to sniff out the best trails for off-road biking. The Jeep Gladiator Top Dog Concept is ready to take mountain bikers deep into the wilderness and keep them fed at the campsite after a day of adventuring is over. It features a mix of Jeep Performance Parts, Mopar accessories, and a few custom goodies. The standard truck bed is gone, and a custom PCOR flatbed storage system replaces it. The passenger side of this carrier is dedicated to working. There are drawers for storing tools and shelves for other gear, in addition to the switches for the exterior lighting. The driver side is all about partying by featuring a refrigerator and roller-grille hot dog cooker. The lower corners have opening panels for stowing even more stuff, and there's a drawer above the rear bumper. Gallery: Jeep Gladiator Top Dog Concept The vehicle's roof and the top of the storage system offer room for attaching gear, including putting bikes up there. A ladder in the drawer in the rear provides a way to get up there. Jeep makes a few tweaks to the front, too. The bumper gains a brush guard and Warn winch. The vehicle rides on 17-inch beadlock-capable aluminum wheels with 37-inch BF Goodrich KM3 mud-terrain tires. Steel fender flares are over the top of them. A two-inch lift kit with Fox shocks provides a taller ride height to help mountain bikers get into even more remote places. The hood is a concept piece with black Mopar latches and a Jeep Willys logo. A five-inch LED spotlight is at the base of each A-pillar. The cabin has custom black Katzkin leather cover the seats, armrests, shifter boots, steering wheel, and the parking brake handle. Blue stitching offers a color contrast. For extra touches, there are stainless-steel pedal covers and all-weather floor mats.

1. Donald Trump swept through five states on Sunday - they were either swing states or states he won last time but where polls are now showing a very close race. 2. "Fire Fauci" was the latest chant to be heard at a Trump rally - and the president hinted to a crowd in Florida he might like to do just that after the country's top infectious diseases expert criticised the White House's virus strategy. 3. Joe Biden focused on Pennsylvania, an important state in his path to the White House, but one which will only start counting postal votes on election day - something Mr Trump has said he could challenge in court. 4. Groups of Trump supporters in trucks were out on the streets and some of them have been accused of intimidation - the FBI is already investigating Trump supporters for harassment of a Biden campaign bus in Texas on Saturday. 'Anti-fracking activist' Lady Gaga and the Pennsylvania vote Lady Gaga, that well-known "anti-fracking activist", has made her way into Donald Trump's mentions. The 34-year-old, who is also known for being a pop superstar with several Grammy awards and one Oscar, is set to join Joe Biden and Kamala Harris at a rally in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on Monday. For the record, she is not famous for being an anti-fracking activist but that is how she was described in a tweet by Donald Trump's communications director Tim Murtaugh. "Nothing exposes Biden's disdain for the forgotten working men & women of PA like campaigning with anti-fracking activist Lady Gaga," he wrote. The Trump campaign statement on Lady Gaga's forthcoming appearance with Joe Biden links to an October 2012 post on Lady Gaga's official Facebook page, which posts without comment a link to the website Artists Against Fracking. Mr Trump also tweeted his outrage. Lady Gaga responded, glad "to be living rent free" in their heads and asked "also, what is fracking?" Fracking is the process of drilling into the earth to release natural gas and oil. The Trump campaign has identified it as a critical election issue in the battleground state of Pennsylvania, which has a booming natural gas industry. The Biden campaign says it does not have a policy to ban fracking but it would seek to end fracking leases on federal land. The Democrat has been under particular pressure on the issue since speaking about a "transition" away from oil in the final TV debate., which his team later said he didn't really mean. Lady Gaga did also include in her post: "Keep your jobs PA!" Last push for Latino votes Both candidates are after Latino votes in a year when only half say they are "extremely motivated" to vote, compared with two-thirds of US voters overall. Mr Trump's final rally of Sunday was in Miami - and the Spanish-speaking Colombian vallenato band he brought in to warm up the crowd was a clue as to one important intended audience. Meanwhile Democrat politician Julian Castro campaigned for Joe Biden in Arizona, where he visited a Day of the Dead altar upon which a picture of his late step-mother who recently died of Covid-19 was placed. Democrats are hoping that the state's growing Latino po[CENSORED]tion could change a Republican landscape.

Google will follow in Mozilla's footsteps by adding its own root store to Chrome Google is planning to follow in Mozilla's footsteps as the search giant has announced plans to run its own certificate root program/store for its Chrome browser. While operating systems and applications use a “root program” or “root store” to verify the identity of software during installation, Chrome and other web browsers use root stores to ensure that HTTPS connections are valid. They do this by examining a website's TLS certificate to determine whether the root certificate used to generate it is included in a local root program/store. Unlike Mozilla Firefox which includes its own root store, Chrome has been configured since its launch in 2009 to use the root store of the operating system it is currently running on. So on Windows machines Chrome checks a site's TLS certificate against the Microsoft Trusted Root Program and on macOS devices the browser does so using the Apple Root Certificate program. We've put together a list of the best anonymous browsers around These are the best Windows 10 VPNs for your PC Also check out our roundup of the best proxy service providers In the future though, Google's web browser will use its own root store to determine whether HTTPS connections are valid. Chrome Root Program In a new post on the The Chromium Project's webpage, Google has revealed its plans to create its own root store called the Chrome Root Program. The new root store will eventually ship with all versions of Chrome though it won't be coming to Chrome for iOS. At this time, the program appears to be in its early stages and Google has not yet provided a timeline for when the Chrome Root Program will go live. However, the company has published rules for Certificate Authorities (CAs), which issue TLS certificates for websites, so that they can be ready when the time comes. Google provided more guidance for CAs in its post announcing the Chrome Root Program, saying: “As this transition occurs, CAs should continue to work with the relevant vendors of operating systems where Chrome is supported to additionally request inclusion within their root certificate programs as appropriate. This will help minimize any disruption or incompatibilities for end users, by ensuring that Chrome is able to validate certificates from the CA regardless of whether it is using the Chrome Root Store or existing platform integrations.” By introducing its own root store, Google will be able to provide a more consistent experience and common implementation across all of the platforms its browser supports. Chrome's security team will also be able to step in and ban CAs that aren't following the rules more quickly.

Nvidia’s RTX 3000 series graphics cards are finally starting to hit store shelves, though they're still hard to come by. For instance, the company's flagship RTX 3080 card sold out instantly when it launched on September 17. The RTX 3090 also sold out instantly when it came out on September 24th, and the same happened to the RTX 3070 when it comes out on October 29th. Still, with companies promising to restock inventory and cancel scalper orders, it's worth checking on their store pages now and then, which is where this page comes in. Nvidia itself has stated to expect shortages throughout the year, but that's all the more reason to stay alert for when opportunities do arise. The big issue with getting your hands on these cards is not being able to pre-order them. Instead, you have to sign up for notifications on store pages, or set up a bot of your own that notifies you when cards become available. Then, if you're lucky, you can swoop in and buy a card before inventory runs out. We've seen it happen. That's why we've collected the different places where you can get your hands on RTX cards all on this one page, so you can prepare to get the new best graphics cards (or systems that include them, which are less likely to sell out) as soon as they become available. Note that, as of time of writing, we've checked all the listed stores and still don't see any RTX 3080, RTX 3090 or RTX 3070 cards for sale. That's not too surprising, as new inventory updates from top Danish electronics retailer Proshop shows that it's not just individual consumers who are having problems buying RTX 3000 series cards. However, resellers (even MSI subsidiaries) have plenty of them selling for inflated prices that are more than double the MSRP, if you're willing to go that route. RTX 3080: Where to Buy The card on everyone’s mind right now is the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080. As we said in our RTX 3080 review, it’s both powerful and surprisingly well priced, allowing you to get 30% better performance than the RTX 2080 Ti for $700. There’s no doubt the 3080 is in high demand, which we saw when it sold out within seconds on launch day. That said, a number of retailers have store pages up right now where you can sign up to get notified when they go live again. eBay: If money is no object and you're willing to pay double the MSRP, eBay has RTX 3080 cards going from $1,599 to $2,100. Good news, though. The $2,100 unit has free shipping. stockX: Similar to eBay, there's also some aftermarket RTX 3080 cards up on stockX, a site commonly used for aftermarket sneaker sales. These range from $1,300 to $1,900, but buying from here might mean supporting people who use bots to resell. Best Buy currently lists RTX 3080s from Nvidia , Gigabyte, MSI, Asus, PNY and EVGA listed. Prices range from $699.99 to $849.99, depending on model and manufacturer. Amazon, meanwhile, doesn’t have any options straight from Nvidia. Instead, it carries models from PNY, Zotac, MSI, EVGA, Gigabyte and Asus. Amazon currently doesn’t have any prices listed on its available, as it is out of inventory, but you can sign up for notifications on when they restock. B&H doesn’t have the Founders Edition, either. Its cards come from Zotac, Asus, MSI and Gigabyte. You can still sign up for notifications, and prices range from $719.99 to $904.80 depending on model and manufacturer. Finally, Newegg has models from Gigabyte, Zotac, EVGA, MSI and Asus. They range from $699 to $1,562, depending on model, seller and manufacturer. Newegg also has numerous RTX 3080 bundle deals that include related gear like motherboards, though these are also sold out at the moment. You can also sign up for notifications here. RTX 3090: Where to Buy If you want even more power than the RTX 3080, the RTX 3090 is your best bet. Our RTX 3090 review dubs it the heir to the Titan throne and crowns it the definitive "fastest GPU for gaming." It even performs well with SLI, which is rare in modern graphics cards, though you might still have to properly configure your DLSS settings to get the most out of it according to new benchmarking with Watch Dogs: Legion. It does cost more than the RTX 3080, starting at $1,500 for the Nvidia Founder's Edition, but seeing how quickly it sold out on its September 24 launch, it's clear demand is just as high as for its less powerful sibling. So just like with the RTX 3080, we've gathered RTX 3090 store pages together so you can be ready to strike when stock comes back in. eBay: If your time is worth a lot more than your money, you can grab an RTX 3090 card from a seller on eBay for as little as $2,499. stockX: Like eBay, you can also turn to stockX for aftermarket RTX 3090s. This is a site commonly used for designer sneaker sales, and prices range from $2,330 to $3,200. But know that buying from here might mean supporting people who use bots to mark up prices. Newegg has the most RTX 3090 listings right now with options from MSI, Asus, EVGA, Zotac and Gigabyte. Prices range from $1,499.99 to $1,799, and you can sign up for notifications on the listings that interest you. Like with the RTX 3080, Newegg also has numerous (also sold out) bundle deals that include related gear like motherboards. Best Buy is where you can find the Founders Edition, as well as cards from Gigabyte, Asus, PNY, EVGA and MSI. Prices vary between models. Amazon has RTX 3090 listings from Zotac, PNY, MSI, Gigabyte and Asus' TUF brand, though none have prices listed due to being out of stock . You can sign up for notifications, though. B&H has cards from Zotac, Asus and Gigabyte, with prices ranging from $1,499.99 to $1,842.10 depending on model and manufacturer. It also used to have an MSI option, though this it currently listed as no longer available. As always, email notifications are available. RTX 3070 Founders Edition Rounding out the RTX 3000-series releases is the RTX 3070, which was originally expected to launch on October 15 but was pushed back to October 29th to increase launch day stock. The RTX 3070 is the most affordable of the RTX 3000 cards, packing 5,888 CUs for prices starting at $499.00 and targeting 1440p gameplay. In leaked tests, it performed slightly better than a 2080 Ti despite its much lower cost, and our own review also compared it to a 2080 Ti. Despite the release delay, RTX 3070s repeated the pattern of the other RTX 3000 series card launches and also sold out within minutes after going live. That's not a surprise, given Proshop's inventory numbers before the card went up. Still, we will continue to monitor stock and update this page if we see any. eBay: Like the RTX cards that launched before it, the RTX 3070 is all over eBay. Reputable listings seem to start around $600. stockX: There is currently a single RTX 3070 unit up on stockX for $899. Best Buy lists the Nvidia Founders Edition, but you can't preorder. It also has options from Gigabyte and PNY. Prices vary from $499 to $569 depending on product. Amazon has two PNY models listed. Amazon isn't taking pre-orders either, but you can sign up to be notified when products become available. B&H has two RTX 3070 models currently listed on its store, both from Gigabyte. One costs $599 and the other costs $649, and you can sign up to be notified when they become available. Pre-Builts with RTX RTX 3080 and RTX 3090 cards are still sold out across all stores, but there are pre-built systems that include the cards still available. iBuyPower has desktop systems with RTX 3080 cards available for preorder. Velocity Micro is still letting you add an RTX 3080 to any of its full tower or workstation desktops. The company is currently quoting a 3-week lead time for deliveries. Alienware currently has a (fairly expensive) gaming desktop with an RTX 3090, and the company told PC Gamer that more configurations will be available soon. It is currently quoting a 3-4 week delivery time. Cyberpower currently has 8 desktops available with RTX 3080s. Expect a 3 week lead time on deliveries. Falcon Northwest is currently allowing customers to add RTX 3080s to their FragBox, Talon and Tiki system orders. Also, keep an eye on our Best Gaming PC deals page- we'll update it if we find any deals (or more likely at this point, bundles) on systems with RTX cards in them. That’s it for now. We’ll keep this page updated as more information arises, which might last even beyond the RTX 3070’s launch. We wouldn’t be surprised, for instance, to see an RTX 3060 make its way to store shelves sometime later this year.

The single-player RPG will feature several famous champions and is being developed by Darksiders Genesis studio Airship Syndicate. League of Legends has been among the most po[CENSORED]r games in the world for several years, and it has managed to do it without appearing on consoles. However, that is going to change next year--kind of. Ruined King: A League of Legends Story comes to consoles and PC in 2021, and it offers a single-player role-playing experience to expand the world of Runeterra and introduce it to new players. Launching early next year on PC, Xbox One, PS4, and Nintendo Switch, with Xbox Series X, Series S, and PS5 versions to follow a short time after with cross-buy, Ruined King is being developed by Airship Syndicate. The studio most recently created the underrated Darksiders Genesis, and the game uses a turn-based battle system that should be familiar to RPG fans. You'll form a part with several champions from the main League of Legends game, including Braum, Yasuo, Ahri, Pyke, and Miss Fortune. It features two different regions--Bilgewater and Shadow Isles--and the story focuses on a "corrupt and mysterious enemy." "We are excited to take this plunge into exploring stories and champions that players have enjoyed over the years, and can't wait for our players to embark on this new adventure with us," said Head of Riot Forge Leanne Loombe. This is the first game the division is publishing. Riot Games says more information will be available on Ruined King: A League of Legends Story in December, and you can check out its website for more information. As always, League of Legends is free-to-play on PC.

In a recent tweet, Raspberry Pi expert and enthusiast Jeff Geerling announced that after much work, he managed to get an Intel I340-T4 4x Gigabit NIC working with the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 using a Compute Module 4 I/O board. After everything was said and done, Geerling was able to record a maximum performance throughput of 3.06 Gbps. Connecting the hardware was easy enough but still came with a bit of a challenge The Compute Module 4 I/O board has a 1x slot, but the card uses a 4x plug. Geerling easily bridged the connection with a 1x to 16x PCIe adapter. It took a some work to determine the best route for driver installation, but the maker found a solution and tested the final setup using four individual Raspberry Pis (one for each port on the card). When testing the performance individually, they averaged around 940 Mbps. Altogether, the throughput maxed out at 3.06 Gbps. The process is much more involved than we covered here. You can read a detailed explanation behind the construction and setup of this project on Jeff Geerling's website.

Samsung Electronics has introduced its own version of Apple’s Find My feature to locate devices – though, naturally, it will only work with Galaxy devices, from smartphones to tablets to smartwatches to individual earbuds. The feature, called SmartThings Find, locates devices using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and Ultra Wideband (UWB) – a WiFi-less tracking method similar to what Apple has been rumored to be developing. SmartThings Find is now available on Samsung's Galaxy devices globally after the service was tested by 6 million users in South Korea, the USA and the UK for about two months, the company said in a press statement. Sadly, older devices may not be able to run the feature, which is coming in a software update for on Galaxy smartphones and tablets running Android 8 or later, Galaxy Watch smartwatches powered by Tizen 5.5 or above, and Galaxy Buds Plus and Galaxy Buds Live wireless earbuds. The technology behind SmartThings Find After completing a quick registration process, SmartThings users can easily find their Galaxy devices – from smartphones, tablets and smartwatches, down to each individual earbud. While the app uses BLE and UWB technologies to track the devices, it shows their locations in an AR interface to help users see where their Galaxy products actually are. "With the added advantage of using AR6 in conjunction with maps and sounds to guide you back to your devices, SmartThings Find is a simple and visual solution that will help you easily locate your favorite devices. This is just one example of the new meaningful mobile experiences that UWB technology will bring to people across the world,” said Jaeyeon Jung, Vice President and Head of SmartThings Team, Mobile Communications Business at Samsung Electronics. According to Samsung: Once a device has been offline for 30 minutes, it produces a BLE signal that can be received by other devices "If you report your device as lost via SmartThings Find, any nearby Galaxy smartphone or tablet that has opted into helping find misplaced devices can alert the Samsung server about its location, which will in turn notify you." The service is also set to offer integrated map directions and sounds for users to quickly find a lost device. Once you're close to your device, you can choose to either have your device 'ring' or locate it using the augmented reality-based search nearby function, which displays color graphics that increase in intensity when you are getting closer to your device, the company said. All SmartThings Find user data is encrypted and securely protected, ensuring that the device’s location is not revealed to anyone except its owner. SmartThings Find is similar to 'Find My App' that are native to Apple devices. Samsung to add this service to other devices, too The highlight of the service is it will allow users to find their missing devices even if they are offline. Samsung said it plans to start expanding such solutions to tracking tags early next year, so that users can locate not only Galaxy devices but also other items. "We are excited to also be working closely with leading companies in the item-finding space to both expand this experience and enable you to find more of the belongings you care about most," said Jung Jae-yeon.

MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - A traditional Day of the Dead “offering” in Frida Kahlo’s iconic home in Mexico City has taken on a wider artistic homage, with an exhibition helped by French designer Jean Paul Gaultier also remembering artists who have died in past pandemics. Mexico’s Day of the Dead festival blends Catholic rituals with the pre-Hispanic belief that the dead return once a year from the underworld, and seeks to celebrate the continuity of life. Traditionally, Mexicans build Day of the Dead altars in their homes and outside, where they place pictures of the dead and items they enjoyed in life. In Kahlo’s “Blue House,” which is now a museum, organizers put together an offering titled “The Restored Table: Memory and Reencounter,” in collaboration with Gaultier, who was a huge fan of the iconic Mexican artist. The offering included pictures of famed artists who died in previous pandemics, including Italian painter Tiziano, who passed away in 1576 when the plague ravaged Venice, and Austria’s Gustav Klimt, who died from the Spanish flu in 1918. “It’s an interesting experience,” said Mariyah Efimova, a Russian tourist in the Mexican capital. The offering included an homage to Mexican artist Manuel Felguérez, who died from COVID-19, and marigolds, known in Mexico as “the flower of the dead” for a scent believed to be strong and sweet enough to attract souls and draw them back. Edna Romero, a mask-wearing visitor, said it was important for her family to learn about Kahlo and Mexican traditions such as Day of the Dead despite the tough times during the coronavirus pandemic. “It’s very interesting and very cool,” said Romero. “I hope it will be a respite.”

And invited Shmee and the other guys who raised questions to witness the rerun. To say that the previous week was a hectic and stressful one for SSC North America would be an understatement. It would have been great – if only the SSC Tuatara's top speed run video (see below) was clean and spotless. As it turned out, there were aspects in the video that prompted Shmee and other personalities to question its validity. SSC released a statement acknowledging the allegations of inconsistencies further stating that the issue was actually with the video editing. They promised to rectify the issue and come back with a suitable response. We now have an answer and it came straight from the founder of SSC North America, Jerod Shelby. In a video uploaded by FastCarCommunity on YouTube (embedded on top of this age), Shelby released a personal statement, recalling what has transpired after the controversy. In line with this, Shelby announced that they are doing a rerun of the SSC Tuatara's top-speed record attempt. "So as I sat there thinking through, there was just no way to now make this perfect. It hit me. We have to rerun the record. We have to do this again and do it in a way that it's undeniable and irrefutable. So the next time we do this, which is we're going to prepare to do it in the very near future, we need to make sure we have multiple GPS companies, equipment in the car. I want to make sure that we have their staff on site looking over our shoulders and analyzing every run, every detail of this," he said on the video. Moreover, Shelby has extended a special invitation to Shmee and the other guys who raised questions about the validity of the record-setting run. "I'd like you to be looking over our shoulder and verifying so that you can tell the world and the car community that you also are in all over what this car is capable of," he added. The details of the Tuatara's top-speed record rerun are yet to be announced by SSC, along with the response to the special invitation. We expect to hear from SSC again in the next few days, and we'll make sure to be on top of that as we always do.

The plane-themed version is available only for the coupe. The Lexus LC is that type of car that doesn’t really need a special edition since it’s a gorgeous machine even in its most basic form. That didn’t stop the company’s Japanese division to tweak the sensuous coupe for a new Aviation special edition available exclusively at home in Japan. Taking inspiration from aeronautics, the limited-run model is all about that rear spoiler. Manufactured from carbon fiber reinforced plastic, the rear aero element extends onto the LC’s rear fenders with a pair of curved winglets developed to aid airflow. The extended spoiler was created by some of the people involved in the development of the V10-powered LFA supercar, which had an automatically deployable and retractable rear spoiler. Gallery: Lexus LC Aviation There’s more to the LC Aviation than its CFRP spoiler as Lexus Japan has also blacked out the corporate spindle grille and the accompanying air intakes at the front. The swanky coupe rides on a fresh set of 21-inch alloy wheels painted in black, with more of that black treatment applied onto the headlights and taillights as well as the side vent molding. Lexus Japan will sell the high-end coupe in black (obviously), white, or silver. There are some changes inside the cabin where the special edition can be visually distinguished thanks to an exclusive Aviation Black theme. The steering wheel is draped in Alcantara and there’s a saddle-like color on the seats, door cards, and center console. There aren’t any changes underneath the LC’s beautiful skin, and Lexus will sell the Aviation with a 5.0-liter V8 for the LC500 and an electrified 3.5-liter V6 for the LC500h. The conventionally powered model starts off at the equivalent of about $144,000 while the hybrid model is a tad more expensive, at a little over $148,000. Lexus will have it on sale from January 6, 2021, and production will be limited to only 70 cars.

US President Donald Trump and his Democratic White House challenger Joe Biden have held duelling rallies in the critical election state of Florida. Mr Biden told supporters: "You hold the power. If Florida goes blue [Democratic], it's over." Celebrating soaring economic figures, Mr Trump, a Republican, said of his rival: "He's going to lock you down." With just five days to go until election day, Mr Biden has a solid lead nationally in opinion polls. But his advantage looks less assured in the battleground states, such as Florida, that will decide who ultimately wins the White House. More than 81 million people have already voted, 52 million of them by mail, setting the US on course for its highest electoral turnout rate in more than a century. Trump warns of 'crippling' Biden depression At Thursday's rally in Tampa, Mr Trump revelled in a new federal projection that the US economy had expanded at an unprecedented 33.1% annual rate in the most recent quarter, following a record 31% contraction in the previous three months during the coronavirus crash. Florida is a must-win for Mr Trump and a key opinion poll average shows him just 1.4 points behind Mr Biden, which amounts to a statistical dead heat. At a 100-minute outdoor rally, Mr Trump told thousands of people, many of them crowded together without masks: "Joe Biden's plan is to deliver punishing [coronavirus] lockdowns. He's going to lock you down." "Look, we were compared to Europe," noted the president. "'Germany is doing so well, France is doing so well, everyone's doing so well.' No, they're not doing well." Walmart pulls guns off shelves over 'civil unrest' While emphasising Europeans were allies, he continued: "They're spiking up big, they're shutting down, they're locking down. "I disagree with that because we're never going to lock down again. We locked down, we understood the disease and now we're open for business." Record traffic out of Paris as new lockdown begins The president was introduced by First Lady Melania Trump, making a rare appearance on the campaign trail. Her biggest applause line came when she said: "We are a country of hope, not a country of fear or weakness, and we have a leader who shows us that every single day." Mr Trump had been due to hit another key state, North Carolina, on Thursday evening, but cancelled that event in Fayetteville because of foul weather from Tropical Storm Zeta in the area. The storm reportedly disrupted early voting in another election battleground, Georgia, sparking power cuts in some precincts and toppling trees that blocked off mobile polling sites. Mr Trump - who began this month in hospital with coronavirus - is visiting 10 states in the last week of the campaign and will host 11 rallies in the final two days, a campaign official said. The president is hoping that media coverage of his rallies will compensate for his chronic deficit in ad spending as a result of his now-limited campaign coffers. In Florida alone, according to data from ad tracking firm Kantar/CMAG, Mr Biden and his allies are outspending Mr Trump by more than three to one. But in a potential boost for Mr Trump, on Thursday he won a rare thumbs-up from an African American celebrity, rapper Lil Wayne, who appeared to endorse him. Biden: Trump has 'given up' In a 23-minute appearance, Mr Biden spoke at a drive-in rally at a college in Broward County, north of Miami, on Thursday. "I do miss the opportunity to just wander in and shake hands with all of you, but we decided a while ago that we were going to try to be responsible," he said. He thanked attendees, many of whom remained by their cars to avoid possible spread of Covid-19, for wearing masks and practising social distancing Mr Biden dismissed Mr Trump's rally on the other side of the state as a "superspreader" event. "Donald Trump has given up," he said, of the coronavirus pandemic. The US is currently seeing a record rate of infection, and is nearing nine million confirmed cases. Mr Biden urged a national mask mandate, crying: "This is not a political statement, it's a patriotic duty, for God's sake!" The Democrat said he would not lock down the country as president, though he did not rule it out at a debate last week. Mr Biden described his rival as "a person who knows the only way he can win is if he divides us on race, nationality, national origin, gender". He added: "Look, everybody knows who Donald Trump is. We got to show him who we are." Mr Biden also pitched directly to Hispanic voters, as polls show Mr Trump is making gains with Latinos, a vital voting bloc in Florida and other battleground states like Nevada. "President Trump can't advance democracy and human rights for the Cuban people or the Venezuelan people, for that matter, when he has praised so many autocrats around the world," Mr Biden said. Mr Trump swiftly hit back on Twitter, saying: "Our opponents want to turn America into Communist Cuba or Socialist Venezuela." On Friday, the two rivals will hold another set of duelling rallies, this time in Minnesota. It is one of the few Midwestern states that voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016 and the president is hoping to flip it this time. Mr Biden will also campaign in Wisconsin and Iowa on Friday. On Saturday, he will hold a joint rally in Michigan with former US President Barack Obama, whom he served as vice-president.

Adata has achieved a new feat with the Spectrix D50 Xtreme memory, which the brand recently announced back in September. Xtreme Performance Gear (XPG), Adata's gaming division, has overclocked the Spectrix D50 Xtreme to DDR4-5300. The Spectrix D50 Xtreme is currently only available in DDR4-4800 and DDR4-5000 flavors, but Adata didn't specify which kit it used to hit DDR4-5300. The manufacturer speaks highly of the Spectrix D50 Xtreme, claiming that it utilizes the highest quality ICs and PCBs but kept their origin and brand a secret. At any rate, XPG got the memory running on MSI's new MEG B550 Unify X motherboard that focuses heavily on overclocking and AMD's Ryzen 7 Pro 4750G (codename Renoir) APU. The memory was operating with its timings configured to 19-28-28-48. The brand didn't reveal the amount of voltage it used, though. Although not available to the general public, desktop Renoir chips have been very po[CENSORED]r among extreme overclockers. The 7nm Zen 3-powered APUs have demonstrated a very strong IMC (integrated memory controller). As a matter of fact, Ryzen 4000 APUs have taken a few world records. The XPG overclocker, who currently holds the fastest DDR4 memory record at DDR4-6666, used a Ryzen 7 4700GE, another Zen 3 APU, to accomplish the deed. At the moment, it's uncertain if Adata will offer the Spectrix D50 Xtreme in the DDR4-5300 presentation further down the road or if this is just a demonstration to flex the Spectrix D50 Xtreme's prowess.
