Top US virus expert Dr Anthony Fauci has criticised the White House for hosting a gathering last month that has been linked to an outbreak of Covid-19. Dr Fauci, a member of the White House coronavirus task force, said the unveiling of President Donald Trump's nominee to the Supreme Court was a "superspreader event". At least 11 people who attended the event on 26 September tested positive. Mr Trump is himself recovering from Covid-19. His doctors have just cleared him to hold public events, less than a month before he faces Democratic candidate Joe Biden in the presidential election. Mr Trump has expressed scepticism about measures such as masks and lockdowns to combat the spread of Covid-19, which has killed more than 213,000 people in the US. He has talked up the prospects of a vaccine becoming available, although researchers say this is unlikely to happen before next year at the earliest. Polling suggests Mr Biden has a single-digit lead over Mr Trump and an ABC News/Ipsos poll found that just 35% of Americans approved of how Mr Trump has handled the crisis. CBS News asked on Friday what Dr Fauci thought of the White House's reluctance to insist on mask-wearing and social distancing as virus precautions, and instead rely on regular testing. "The data speak for themselves - we had a superspreader event in the White House, and it was in a situation where people were crowded together and were not wearing masks." An event at the White House on Saturday 26 September, for the president's nomination of Amy Coney Barrett as a Supreme Court justice, is thought to be the root of the localised outbreak. As well as President Trump and his wife Melania, those who attended and later tested positive included two senators, the White House press secretary and former Trump counsellor Kellyanne Conway. Dr Fauci also noted experts have been recommending mask-wearing for the last six months, and condemned talk of a coronavirus "cure" - a word Mr Trump has used in reference to the experimental Covid-19 treatments he received during his recent stay at a military hospital. Large gatherings are still banned in the US capital due to Covid-19, but federal property like the White House is exempt. How is Mr Trump's health? Mr Trump - who was discharged from hospital on Monday after three nights - was asked in an interview with Fox News on Friday evening about the symptoms he had experienced. The president said he had not felt strong, but had found no problem breathing. Asked if he had re-tested for coronavirus on Friday, the president said he was at "either the bottom of the scale or free", though he did not say his results were negative. What events does he have planned? On Saturday, which according to his doctors will be 10 days since his diagnosis, Mr Trump will give a speech from the White House balcony to a group gathered on the South Lawn. Hundreds of people have reportedly been invited. Top Republican avoids White House over Covid-19 US election 2020: Your top questions answered All attendees will be required to wear masks, will be given temperature checks and encouraged to social distance, said the White House. Mr Trump's remarks will be on the subject of "law and order", according to the White House, which adds that it is a presidential rather than a campaign event. There will also be an event by the group Blexit, a campaign urging black voters to reject the Democratic party. On Monday the Trump campaign is planning a big rally in Sanford, Florida. What about the debates? Next week's second presidential debate between Mr Trump and his Democratic White House challenger Joe Biden is now officially cancelled. The Commission on Presidential Debates said in a statement on Friday that both campaigns had announced "alternate plans for that date". Mr Trump had baulked at a request from the commission to hold the 15 October showdown virtually to minimise the risk of spreading coronavirus. The commission said it was still making arrangements for the third and final presidential debate in Nashville, Tennessee, on 22 October. The Trump campaign said the commission was "biased" towards Mr Biden, while the Democrat's team accused the president of ducking the debate. Who has tested positive in Mr Trump's circle? The announcement of Mr Trump's first mass gathering since his infection triggered alarms in Washington, where officials are still attempting to contact trace attendees from the White House event. Mr Trump tested positive for Covid-19 last Thursday, according to his doctors, but he has not said when his last negative test was. Did this White House event cause a virus outbreak? As many as 34 White House aides and other contacts have tested positive for Covid-19 in recent days, according to US media. On Friday, the Minnesota Department of Health said nine infections have been tied to Mr Trump's 18 September campaign rally in the state. At least one person was infectious when they attended, officials say, and two cases ou hawzebi have led to hospital admissions, with one of those people in intensive care.

When it comes to performance driving, “progress” isn't always a good thing. Sure, progress gave us 800-horsepower family sedans and telemetry-rich infotainment systems, but it's also responsible for the steady rise in vehicle curb weights, emotionless turbocharged engines, and safety nets that are quick to scold any potential indiscretion. Fortunately, the 2020 Lamborghini Huracán Evo RWD has the antidote to each of those issues. And at an MSRP of $208,571, the RWD is roughly $53,000 less than its all-wheel drive counterpart, making it the most financially-accessible Lamborghini you can buy today. But rather than coming in like a bargain-basement version of the model you really want, the Evo RWD serves as a reminder that the driving experience will always be more important than figures on a spec sheet. As the name suggests, the primary difference between the standard Huracán Evo and the Evo RWD is that Lamborghini's latest entry sends the power exclusively through the rear-wheels rather than distributing it to all four corners. It still gets its motivation from a naturally aspirated 5.2-liter V10 – here making 610 horsepower and 413 pound-feet of torque – that wails like a banshee as the revs climb to its 8,500-rpm redline thanks to a center-mounted exhaust system cribbed from the Performante. A seven-speed dual clutch transmission still offers near-instantaneous gear changes. Though it's down about twenty horsepower versus the all-wheel drive Huracán Evo, the RWD coupe is 73 pounds lighter without the front differential hardware, and that equates to a 0-to-62-mph sprint in 3.3 seconds on the way to a top speed of over 200 miles per hour. So it's not exactly a slouch. There are other important distinctions between the Evo RWD and the standard Evo, though. Without an all-wheel drive system to contend with, engineers swapped the predictive Lamborghini Vehicle Dynamics Integration (LVDI) system for the new, specially developed Performance Traction Control System (P-TCS). Torque vectoring is off the table since power isn't going to the front wheels, and the rear-steering system that debuted in the standard Evo is also missing. “We wanted to get back to the purest driving emotion,” says Alessandro Farmeschi, Lamborghini's Americas Region CEO. “It's an unfiltered experience – you need to rely on your senses and instinct.” To get a better understanding of what Farmeschi is driving at, Lamborghini invited us out to Willow Springs International Raceway to put the Evo RWD coupe through its paces on a closed course and take the Evo RWD Spyder for a spin on the streets and highways neighboring the track. We started our initial track session in Strada, the Huracán's most street-friendly driving mode. Even though the main focus of the first few laps was to get re-acclimated to the course layout, we noticed the absence of the standard Evo's rear-steering system almost immediately. Our first stint in the standard Huracán Evo was at this same track last year, and at the time we noted that system made the car feel like it was crab-walking around long sweepers like Turn 2. Though the Evo RWD might require a bit more steering input to keep the same line at a similar pace (and thus run out of grip a moment sooner), cornering at speed feels much more natural without rear-wheel steer, which often works in concert with the torque vectoring system in at-the-limit situations. Switching to Sport mode enhances the sensation further, as Lamborghini programmed it to allow for more oversteer than both Strada and the track-focused Corsa mode – the latter mode wants to keep your line tidy to ensure your laps are as quick as possible. “In Sport mode, we're able to achieve a perfect percent of oversteer with constant throttle,” says Lamborghini's chief technical officer, Maurizio Reggiani. “And that gives you the perception that you have the full functionality of the car under control.” It's not a “drift mode,” though; on the skid pad, Lamborghini instructors showed us that the system will immediately put the kibosh on donuts and other low-speed hijinks, resulting in little more than understeer. On the track, however, Sport allows for enough rotation at pace to keep things plenty lively before it steps in to save overly-ambitious drivers from themselves. Switching to Corsa mode and turning off traction control via th Also aiding the Evo RWD's track-worthiness is a heavily revised aero package that equates to a 73-percent increase in downforce versus the outgoing rear-drive Huracán. This tangible improvement in stability makes itself known as the speedometer approaches 160 mph and even more so when scrubbing off speed with a loaded-up front end. For those looking for the aforementioned parking-lot shenanigans (or truly unfiltered access to the car's mechanical capability), switching to Corsa mode and turning off traction control via the button on the console is the ticket. But beware: you're truly on your own here, and this ain't no Mustang – you'll need fast hands and feet if you want an unchained rear-drive Huracán to be an obedient dance partner. After wrapping up our sessions on the road course and skid pad, we hopped behind the wheel of an Arancio Borealis-hued Spyder and hit the road to find out what the drop-top Evo RWD is like to live with in “everyday” motoring. It's here where important elements that often go unnoticed on the track come into greater focus, like the updated infotainment system and the comfort of the optional Sport seats, both of which first debuted in the standard Huracán Evo. We still wish the former had a physical volume knob; multi-touch gesture functions address this to some degree, but there is a bit of a learning curve, and adjustments are never quite as precise as you hope they will be. Occasional input response hiccups aside, the 8.4-inch touchscreen infotainment system is still a huge leap forward from the system in the outgoing rear-wheel drive Huracán. And yes, it has Apple CarPlay. In terms of the buckets, the Sport seat looks the coolest of the three seat options, but it essentially splits the difference between the standard seat and the Race seat in terms of luxury and performance. That equates to slightly compromised comfort out on the road, and not enough headroom with a helmet on for your six-foot, three-inch author in the fixed-roof car. Given that, we'd opt for the standard seats in the Spyder and the Race seats in the coupe. At $229,428, the Spyder commands a $21,000 premium over the fixed-roof car, and for that you get a top that stows in 17 seconds at up to 31 miles per hour and uninhibited access to the glorious sounds of that V10. Performance purists may scoff at the 260 pounds of added weight that the Spyder brings to the table due to required structural enhancements, but there's never a moment where the drop top feels even remotely out of its depth in the real world. Aside from losing half a step in the sprint to 60 mph, it's hard to see why someone would opt for the all-wheel-drive car over the Evo RWD. The platform's limits are so high that the standard Huracán Evo's all-wheel-drive system rarely plays a pivotal role out on the street – at the track, the relative simplicity of the RWD model makes it the more earnest driver's car of the two. But if you're still feeling a bit uneasy about forfeiting the additional performance offered by standard Huracán Evo, consider spending some of the fifty grand you'd save on a racing school. The driver mod has got to be good for a few tenths.

After the disaster involving scalpers and bots snagging Founders Edition RTX 3080s and RTX 3090s from Nvidia's online store, Nvidia has halted sales completely for its online store and redirected Founders Edition units toward Best Buy alone. Supposedly Nvidia is updating the store to prevent bots and scalpers from grabbing cards in the future. Here is Nvidia's word on the matter: We have heard your feedback regarding the NVIDIA online store and are working to improve the experience. In the meantime, we will be selling our GeForce RTX 3080 and RTX 3090 Founders Edition through other partners. In the US, you can shop for Founders Edition at Best Buy – GeForce RTX 3080 and GeForce RTX 3090. In Europe, we continue to review Founders Edition fulfillment options. Fortunately, the shutdown only applies to Nvidia's online store and its own Founders Edition cards. But good luck trying to find them at Best Buy as (at the time of writing) they have none in stock. This has been a common problem for all computer retail stores, as Nvidia is simply struggling to keep Ampere GPUs stocked up and says supply may not meet demand until early 2021.

NordVPN has decided to move its business VPN solution, NordVPN Teams, to the US in an effort to better fulfill the requirements of enterprise users. The company and many other VPN providers such as ExpressVPN, are incorporated outside of the US, Australia, Canada, New Zealand and other Western countries in order to avoid being under the jurisdiction of the Fourteen Eyes intelligence sharing pact. The reason for this is that members of this agreement could potentially use its terms to circumvent the laws that prohibit the surveillance of citizens. If a VPN company's operations are located in a country that is part of the Fourteen Eyes agreement, it could be forced into sharing information about its users with that country's government. We've put together a list of the best secure VPN providers around These are the best business VPN solutions on the market Secure your entire network with one of the best VPN routers While NordVPN Teams has moved to the US, a spokesperson for NordVPN assured TechRadar Pro in an email that its consumer VPN solution will stay under the jurisdiction of Panama where there are no mandatory data retention laws, thus keeping the online activities of its customers away from prying eyes. Moving to the US In a notification to NordVPN Teams users, the company explained that Tefincom S.A. Will transfer its rights and obligations to Nord Security Inc. which is incorporated in the US. While consumers tend to use VPN services to better protect their privacy online, enterprises often deploy them for additional security and to allow their remote workers to access company resources and networks securely. Overall, users of NordVPN's business VPN solution won't notice much a difference except for the fact that the address, bank code and wire transfer number has changed for sending payments over wire transfer to the company.

Looks like the chapter on Amazon Games' Crucible is coming to a close. Developer Relentless Studios is shuttering the game after its short-lived lifespan of a few months. "We'll be discontinuing development on Crucible," Relentless Studios wrote in a blog post. "We very much appreciate the way that our fans have rallied around our efforts, and we've loved seeing your responses to the changes we've made over the last few months, but ultimately we didn't see a healthy, sustainable future ahead of Crucible." Currently, servers for custom games will continue to remain live. But even those will shut down on November 9 at 12 PM PT / 3 PM ET. All credit purchases are being disabled and refunds will be made to anyone who's already made any in-game purchases in Crucible. With Crucible soon to be dead-and-buried, Relentless Studios will focus its efforts on New World as well as "other upcoming projects" for Amazon Games. Originally scheduled to release earlier this year, New World has been delayed to Spring 2021. Crucible had a rather unusual release cycle. First existing in closed beta, the game officially launched and was met with mostly mediocre reviews. In GameSpot's Crucible review, for example, Alessandro Barbosa gave the game a 5/10, writing, "[Crucible's] enticing characters and their occasionally exhilarating abilities are undermined by the unsatisfying third-person shooting underpinning them." Relentless Studios decided to "unlaunch" the game following its poor reception, reverting Crucible to closed beta. It was set to eventually relaunch down the line, but apparently that's no longer the case.

Toyota patrons and SUV fans, drop what you're doing because we've got news for you. Apparently, the Japanese automaker is killing off the Land Cruiser soon. However, take this with a healthy dash of salt or put the whole canister even, as nothing has been confirmed at this point. The news came from Motor Authority, which cited a now-deleted post on IH8MUD.com – a website and forum for everything Land Cruiser. According to the post, Toyota will discontinue the Land Cruiser nameplate after the 2021 model year, while the Lexus LX will live on but with a turbo V6 instead of the current 5.7-liter V8. Motor Authority also cited a dealer source confirming the rumor, who said that "there's no illusion it's coming back and it's completely dead for the moment." The source wishes to remain anonymous for obvious reasons. The same source also told the publication that for the 2021 model year, the Land Cruiser Heritage Edition will return with a third row. This special LC was introduced at the Chicago Auto Show in 2019 for the 2020 model year, with a price tag that hovers around the $80,000 mark. While the rumor is completely unconfirmed by the automaker at the time of this writing, it isn't quite unfounded based on the Land Cruiser's age. Of note, the current J200 generation has been around since 2007, with no concrete reports of a successor. It made do with only numerous facelifts to keep the styling fresh and attractive for the SUV-hungry market. We'll know more if this report holds true in the months or years to come but for what it's worth, we sure do hope we got this one wrong for the iconic nameplate's sake.

US President Donald Trump has completed his course of treatment for Covid-19 and can return to public engagements this weekend, his physician has said. Dr Sean Conley said the president had responded "extremely well" to medication and had "remained stable". Mr Trump later said he would probably take another Covid test on Friday and hoped to hold a rally over the weekend. The president earlier pulled out of next Thursday's TV debate with Democratic rival Joe Biden. He said he was "not going to waste my time on a virtual debate" after organisers said it would have to take place remotely because Mr Trump had tested positive for coronavirus. The move sparked a row about how and when further debates would take place. Meanwhile, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, the most powerful Democrat in Washington, said serious questions concerning Mr Trump's health were still unanswered. She said she planned to introduce legislation on Friday to establish a commission to assess the president's fitness for office and "help ensure effective and uninterrupted leadership". A statement announcing the move said the commission would be set up under the 25th Amendment, which outlines how a sitting president can be stripped of power if they are deemed unable to conduct the duties of the office. Mr Trump responded to the announcement on Twitter, calling Ms Pelosi "crazy". What's the latest on Trump's health? In a memo released by the White House on Thursday evening, Dr Conley said Mr Trump was displaying no signs "to suggest progression of illness". "Saturday will be day 10 since [last] Thursday's diagnosis, and based on the trajectory of advanced diagnostics the team has been conducting, I fully anticipate the president's safe return to public engagements at that time," the memo added. Dr Sean Conley: Who is Donald Trump's physician? Earlier, Dr Conley said that if the president's condition remained the same or improved throughout the weekend and into Monday, "we will all take that final, deep sigh of relief". Speaking to Fox News late on Thursday, Mr Trump said he was feeling "really good" and hoped to hold a campaign rally on Saturday evening, possibly in Florida. How did the debate row unfold? It began with the Commission on Presidential Debates announcing candidates would take part in the Miami debate on 15 October "from separate remote locations... to protect the health and safety of all involved". This infuriated the president who, in a phone-in interview with Fox Business Channel, said he was not prepared to "sit behind a computer, ridiculous". Mr Biden said the president "changed his mind every second" and his campaign team added that Mr Trump "clearly does not want to face questions from the voters". The Trump campaign answered back, with manager Bill Stepien saying the commission's decision to "rush to Joe Biden's defence" was "pathetic," adding that Mr Trump would hold a rally instead on the same date. The Biden team then proposed the town-hall style debate, set for Miami, should go ahead on 22 October instead. This brought a brief moment of agreement, on the date at le However, the Trump team said there should be a third face-to-face debate - on 29 October, just five days before polling. But the Biden team said that debates could only be scheduled on the three dates already agreed: 29 September, 15 October and 22 October. On 15 October, Mr Biden will now take part in his own primetime event on ABC answering questions from voters. Quite what format any Biden-Trump debate takes now is hard to pin down. US election 2020: Who is ahead - Trump or Biden? What did we learn from the VP debate? The first presidential debate on 29 September had descended into insults and interruptions. The vice-presidential debate, held on Wednesday night between Mike Pence and Kamala Harris, was a far more measured affair. The US election will be held on 3 November. Latest opinion polls suggest Mr Biden has a steady single-digit lead in the handful of key US states that will decide who wins the White House. Six million ballots have already been cast in early voting. What else did Trump say on Fox? Addressing the issue of his health, Mr Trump said: "I'm back because I'm a perfect physical specimen." Who has Trump met and who's tested positive? He said he had stopped taking most "therapeutics" but was still taking steroids and would be tested for Covid again "soon". ast. But although his doctor has said he now has no symptoms, questions still remain about when the president first became infected and whether he could still be contagious. And although the names of many people who have interacted with the president and tested positive are now known, it remains unclear just how many were exposed at the White House. New Covid safety measures are in place there.

In what could be a move to broden its attack on rival chipmakers Intel and Nvidia, the Wall Street Journal reports that AMD is in advanced talks to buy FPGA-maker Xilinx in a deal that could top $30 billion. The talks are said to have resumed after a recent pause, so it's unclear if they will result in a successful acquisition, but a decision could come as early as next week. We've reached out to AMD for comment and will update accordingly. Xilinx is primarily known for its FPGA products. The two companies have a history of working in close collaboration on deep learning projects, such as the Xilinx deep learning solution on AMD EPYC processors (among many other pursuits). FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Arrays) are semiconductor devices that can be rapidly reconfigured on the fly. They offer certain advantages over other types of devices, like CPUs and GPUs, in a wide variety of workloads. Xilinx has a full spate of cutting-edge tech under its roof. Its latest 7nm Versal Premium ACAPs feature the PCIe 5.0 interface and support the CXL interconnect, 112G transceivers, 600G ethernet cores, and 123 TBps of bandwidth across its network-on-chip (NOC). You can read the full details of the company's APAC platform here. Bringing Xilinx's technology portfolio into AMD's war chest could enable tightly-integrated CPU+FPGA solutions that would fit well within AMD's current chiplet-inspired design methodologies. It's easy to envision future EPYC data center processors with integrated FPGA chiplets to boost AI workload performance. Xilinx's broad technology pallet includes leading-edge connectivity options that could also serve as a backbone for more expansive data center architectures. AMD would certainly have plenty of options with Xilinx under its roof; the FPGA maker currently engages in the automotive, aerospace and defense, data center, HPC, industrial, IoT, and communications markets. The firm also has deep experience in software development/enablement. Notably, Intel purchased Xilinx's main rival, FPGA-maker Altera, for $16.7 billion in 2015, and has integrated the company into its Programmable Solutions Group (PSG). If the reported AMD purchase of Xilinx goes through, it will certainly open up another front in its attack on Intel's broad TAM. You can see the full roster of Intel's AgileX FPGAs that come as a result of the Xilinx acquisition here. The AMD news comes in the wake of Nvidia's ongoing efforts to purchase ARM for $40 billion and could mark yet another big deal during an ongoing wave of industry consolidation. Xilinx also has a solid portfolio of SmartNic/DPUs that would serve as a nice AMD parry to Nvidia's DPU thrust that comes as the fruits of its Mellanox acquisition. The WSJ reports that AMD will likely leverage its high stock valuation, it now has a $100 billion market cap, as currency to purchase Xilinx. This is breaking news..updates to come.

A vulnerability has been discovered in Hotspot Shield's Windows VPN client that could allow for privilege escalation if exploited by an attacker. The vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2020-17365, was discovered by researcher Chen Erlich at the security firm Cympton and it is the result of improper directory permissions in versions 10.3.0 and earlier of the HotSpot Shield's VPN client for Windows. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to corrupt system files by creating a specially crafted symbolic link to a critical file on a user's system and overwrite it with privileges of the application. We've put together a list of the best antivirus software around Secure your entire network with one of the best VPN routers We've also highlighted the best Windows 10 VPN Privilege escalation vulnerability In a security update page on its site, Hotspot Shield's parent company Pango explained that a vulnerability was initially reported in the VPN company's 10.0.1 Windows client. The Hotspot Shield Service has system level privileges and writes log files into the folder with local user permissions. As a result of this, removing the folder and abusing NTFS junctions can allow an unprivileged user to write to any file on the file system with SYSTEM privileges. In a blog post about the privilege escalation vulnerability he discovered, Erlich explained how to mitigate it, saying: “This vulnerability can be mitigated by applying accurate ACL permissions to any location where actions are performed by privileged processes, including C:\ProgramData\Hotspot Shield\logs.” Thankfully though, HotSpot Shield users won't have to do this as the company has released an updated version of its Windows client (version 10.6.0) that patches the vulnerability.

A new trailer for Worms Rumble, the upcoming real-time Worms spin-off, has arrived. It doesn't just contain new footage, though--it also announces a beta date and release window. Worms Rumble will be available on PS5, PS4, and PC in December 2020. The game, which features 32-player Battle Royale matches and a Team Deathmatch mode, will be playable on PS4 and PC during an open beta beginning November 6. During this time, anyone can download the beta and test out the game's online multiplayer. You can check the trailer out below. The game's visual style is closer to the 3D models of Worms Battlegrounds than the more-recent Worms The game has previously run a closed beta, but now more players will be able to experience the game. Worms Rumble is very different from previous games in the series, which has always been turn-based. The game, and the beta, will be cross-play across all systems the game is available on. In GameSpot's review of Worms W.M.D., reviewer Jason D'Aprile gave the game an 8/10 and called it "easily the best game in the Worms series in several years."

Confirmed cases of coronavirus in Brazil have passed five million, with deaths in the country approaching 150,000, officials say. Brazil's health ministry reported 31,553 new cases on Tuesday, bringing the total infections to 5,000,694. The country is the third worst hit for infections, after the US and India. President Jair Bolsonaro has been accused of downplaying the risks of the virus throughout the pandemic, ignoring expert advice on restrictive measures. Mr Bolsonaro has rejected criticism of his handling of the pandemic, but his decision to oppose lockdowns and focus on the economy has been hugely divisive. Is coronavirus still spreading in Latin America? On Tuesday, Brazil recorded 734 new fatalities, bringing the death toll to 148,228, the ministry said. Brazil has the highest number of deaths in Latin America. The state of São Paulo has been the worst hit, with around 36,000 deaths, followed by Rio de Janeiro, with about 19,000. It is another milestone but the picture is not as grim here as it was a few weeks ago. The numbers of cases and deaths have been falling, although we are still talking around 5,000 fatalities a week - down from around 7,000 at the peak. The absolute numbers are still far worse than in Europe, but life here feels like it is returning to normal - shops, restaurants and some schools are starting to re-open. Despite initial criticism over President Jair Bolsonaro's handling of the crisis - his downplaying of the virus from the very start - his approval ratings have actually risen, thanks to generous government handouts to around 60 million informal workers. The question is whether that support will continue as the government starts to reduce the payments while unemployment soars. 2px presentational grey line In August, Brazil's Vice-President Hamilton Mourão defended the government's handling of the pandemic, instead blaming a lack of discipline among Brazilians for the failure to limit the spread of Covid-19 through social distancing measures.

These zombie cars show up in FCA's sales chart for the third quarter. Earlier this week, we reported on how Dodge sold two new Vipers in the third quarter of 2020 despite the sports car’s demise in mid-August 2017 when the last V10 machine rolled down the Conner Avenue Assembly Plant. A closer look at FCA’s Q3 sales chart shows quite a few other defunct names that somehow managed to generate new car sales in the previous quarter. Mechanically related to the Dodge Dart, the Chrysler 200 was a tad more “po[CENSORED]r” in Q3 as FCA sold four of them. In the first three quarters of the year, seven people have bought the previously unsold compact sedan, which is 84 percent less than the 45 cars sold during the 2019 calendar year. The Chrysler 200 effectively died in December 2016 when the final car was completed at the Sterling Heights Assembly plant. The final zombie vehicle to show up in the sales chart is the Jeep Patriot. A single unit was purchased in Q3 2020, bringing the total to two. FCA moved 21 SUVs last year, meaning sales are down so far by 90 percent. Much like the Jeep Compass, the Patriot was discontinued in December 2016 from the aforementioned Belvidere Assembly Plant. While the Ram C/V Tradesman cargo van did not generate any sales in the third quarter, someone bought one earlier this year. The utilitarian vehicle co-existed for a while with the ProMaster City before being discontinued. Its successor isn’t doing great compared to 2019, with sales through Q3 down by a quarter to 7,438 units.

AMD plans to announce its hotly-anticipated Zen 3 'Vermeer' processors on October 8 at 9am PT. The company will livestream its "Where Gaming Begins" event, which you can watch below. According to the description listed on the livestream landing pae, AMD will brand the new Zen 3 desktop PC processors as Ryzen 5000. While you wait for the livestream to begin, check out our Zen 3 all we know article, which outlines all of the publicly-available information AMD has shared about the chips, along with some of the interesting tidbits we've pieced together. AMD's Zen architecture has redefined our expectations for the desktop PC, taking away the performance lead from Intel in several key areas, like pricing, heavily-threaded content creation applications, and power consumption, all while offering a better value proposition and free bundled coolers. All that's left is for AMD to finally take the gaming performance lead from Intel to assume complete dominance of the desktop PC market. Given AMD's marketing push towards gaming and content creation on its website and the "where gaming begins" name of the event, we certainly expect to learn more on that front during the live stream.

Google is continuing its crusade to create a more private internet, announcing an update to the Privacy Sandbox initiative it launched last year. When it was announced, Privacy Sandbox had the twin goals of blocking cross-site tracking, while still continuing to guarantee a free and vibrant web. Today, Google can confirm that some of its new privacy solutions are available for experimental testing through Chrome origin trials – a way for the web community to give feedback on new features before they are made available to all users. The new features build on a number of other privacy proposals launched recently by the search engine giant. Earlier this year, for example, Chrome announced that it would be phasing out support for third-party cookies and, more recently, brought Secure DNS to Android devices to tackle user tracking. The best streaming VPNs available now Google reveals major privacy shake-up How to choose the best Mac VPN Sharing is caring Among the new features being tested are Trust Tokens, which will help to distinguish between genuine users and bots to support the battle against online fraud. Another is the Event Conversion Measurement API, which enables marketers to see when ad clicks lead to a revenue generation opportunity, without revealing the user’s identity. “In January we shared our intent to develop privacy-preserving open-standards that will render third-party cookies obsolete,” Justin Schuh, Director of Chrome Engineering, stated in a blog post. “Since then, Google and others have proposed several new APIs to address use cases like fraud protection, ad selection, and conversion measurement without allowing users’ activity to be tracked across websites.” Google is well aware that new initiatives are not always well received and online privacy requires a difficult balancing act to be struck – one that protects individual web users, but that also safeguards the ad revenue that so much of the internet relies on. As a result, the firm is continuing to ask for feedback regarding its privacy proposals, which can be shared via GitHub or by emailing the W3C group.

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War has two beta weekends coming up, starting with a PS4-exclusive beta on October 8. These betas follow on from September's PS4 alpha event, and players who jump into both will find that one is very different from the other. This beta, which will include VIP Escort, Combined Arms: Assault, and Fireteam: Dirty Bomb playlists--as well as the new Cartel map--will feature some more granular differences, too. Treyarch, the developer behind Cold War's multiplayer, has extensively detailed the differences between the alpha and beta for Cold War, noting every change made based on player feedback. There have been multiple changes to the way characters move, for instance, with more animations and various tweaks to speed, penalities, and field of view during different types of movement. Here's the complete list of movement changes. Core Movement : Integrated updated locomotion animations and systems for walking, jogging, and sprinting. Slightly increased acceleration when moving from a standstill. Sprinting : Reduced or removed several sprint penalties that could leave the player in a state of reduced sprint speed. This results in more opportunities to use the Sprint Takeoff feature for a quick burst of speed when initiating a sprint. Increased the time it takes to ramp down from maximum to minimum sprint speed for a smoother change of speed. This also slightly increases the time at which a player sprints at a faster pace. Slightly adjusted camera bob during sprint to better align with updated movement animations. Disabled Field of View increase when sprinting. This should provide a smoother in-game view and prevent a “floating camera” feeling when sprinting. Sliding : Slightly reduced slide speed. Increased the minimum amount of time a player must sprint before sliding to better align with time to reach max sprint speed. This means a player cannot immediately trigger a slide from a near-standstill. Addressed an issue that allowed players to cancel a slide without the appropriate slowdown. We will continue to monitor and investigate any slide-cancel exploits. In guns, one of the major changes is that aim assist for snipers on controllers has been brought back. This has not been the case since Black Ops II, but their heightened relevance to Cold War's multiplayer made this necessary. Here are the changes to weapons and Gunsmith. Gunsmith : Added a more detailed breakdown of statistics for each attachment, explaining in detail how each attachment influences its weapon’s stats. Moved the Gunsmith UI button closer to the weapon for easier access. Recoil and Firing Animations Added new weapon recoil systems and firing animations with a comprehensive tuning pass for a revamped weapon firing feel on every weapon for both hip-fire and ADS.: Reworked and rebalanced all recoil patterns, impacting weapon balance and mastery across the board. Full touch-up pass on animations across all weapons based on feedback. Aim Down Sights (ADS) : Added new ADS weapon rendering technology for more realistic ADS perspective. Smoothed out all ADS in/out transitions. General Weapon Tuning: Made tuning changes to Alpha weapons that overperformed or underperformed, including increases to AK-74u recoil and ADS time, increasing LMG ammo capacity, and more. Attachment Tuning : Full attachment balance pass to ensure all attachments stay relevant and balanced. Sniper Rifles : Added aim assist on snipers for controller users for cross-platform balancing. Several precision-aiming adjustments to help the sniping experience feel more fluid. Sniper glint now displays more often and more reliably to help players understand when they are in danger. Adjusted ADS time on sniper rifles. Sniper rifles now requires higher hits on the body for one-hit eliminations (for example, upper chest instead of stomach, or upper arm instead of lower arm). Frag Grenades : Reduced the fuse time on the Frag Grenade for Beta. Throw speed adjustments are targeted for launch. Meanwhile, the Scorestreak system has been changed so that rewards require more points to activate in several modes, so as to "reduce Scorestreak spam and make Scorestreaks more rewarding." Various improvements to visual and sound design have been made, too, alongside many other changes and additions. It's worth checking out the full list for more information. Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War will release on November 13 for PC, PS5, Xbox Series X, PS4, and Xbox One.
