Samsung is said to be working on new camera sensors with upgraded specifications. Earlier this year, the South Korean tech giant released its flagship Galaxy S23 series. The lineup included a Samsung Galaxy S23, Samsung Galaxy S23+ and Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra models. The quad-rear camera unit of the high-end Ultra model comes with a 200-megapixel primary sensor with a wide-angle lens, accompanied by a 12-megapixel sensor with an ultra-wide lens, a 10-megapixel sensor with a telephoto lens, and another 10-megapixel telephoto sensor with 10x optical zoom. A Sammobile report citing a tweet by tipster Revegnus (@Tech_Reve) hinted that Samsung is working on a new batch of ISOCELL camera sensors. The listed sensors are tipped to go into mass production by the latter half of 2024. The tipster suggested that the company is working on a 50-megapixel ISOCELL GN6 1.6-inch sensor, a 200-megapixel ISOCELL HP7 0.6-inch sensor, and a 440-megapixel ISOCELL HU1 with an unspecified-sized sensor. The report suggested that the ISOCELL GN6 is likely to be the mobile and camera manufacturer's "biggest and first" 1-inch sensor which could compete with the Sony IMX989 sensor, which is expected to be a worthy camera upgrade for upcoming flagship smartphones. The rumoured 440-megapixel ISOCELL HU1 camera sensor is expected to feature a larger than a 1-inch lens. Since Samsung uses its camera sensors for both smartphones and assisted smart-driving cars, it is unclear if the sensor will be used in phones or cars, the report added. The company had also notably previously stated that it wants to work on camera sensors with up to 600-megapixel resolution. The latest Samsung model with the highest camera resolution yet, the Galaxy S23 Ultra starts at Rs. 1,24,999 for the 12GB RAM + 256GB storage variant, while the 12GB RAM + 512GB storage model and 12GB RAM + 1TB storage variant are priced at Rs. 1,34,999 and Rs. 1,54,999, respectively. Is the iQoo Neo 7 Pro the best smartphone you can buy under Rs. 40,000 in India? We discuss the company's recently launched handset and what it has to offer on the latest episode of Orbital, the Gadgets 360 podcast.

https://techxplore.com/news/2023-06-microsoft-stakes-xbox-video-game.html One small step for an intrepid crew of 24th century space explorers could be a giant leap—or flop—for Microsoft when the Xbox-maker launches its long-awaited video game Starfield. Players must fend off pirates, navigate strange moons, build outposts and fix their own starships in a space epic that is due out on Xbox in September after years of development and delay. Microsoft gave its most detailed glimpse of the upcoming game at a Los Angeles event Sunday. The release could be one of the most important in Xbox's history as it looks to attract gamers with a headliner on par with Nintendo's latest Zelda game and PlayStation's upcoming Spider-Man 2, said Mat Piscatella, a game industry analyst for market researcher Circana. After months of watching Nintendo's Switch console and Sony's PlayStation steal the momentum in a lagging market—with boosts from Hollywood adaptions of Nintendo's Super Mario and the PlayStation exclusive Last of Us—Microsoft could use a blockbuster to drive sales of its Xbox consoles and its monthly game subscription service. "Starfield may have the potential to be as big or bigger than" po[CENSORED]r games on rival platforms, especially thanks to the strong track record of the studio that made it, Piscatella said. "But the 'may' there is a big one." Much of the anticipation centers on the past commercial successes of Microsoft-owned Bethesda Softworks, the studio behind long-running series such as Doom, Elder Scrolls and Fallout. Bethesda describes Starfield as its "first new universe in over 25 years." Bethesda was already well on its way toward developing it when Microsoft acquired its parent company ZeniMax Media for $7.5 billion in 2021. In fact, Bethesda first sought to trademark the Starfield name a decade ago, and teased the game in a brief trailer five years later in 2018. Now Starfield is caught up in Microsoft's planned takeover of Call of Duty maker Activision Blizzard. Sony has raised antitrust objections to the $69 billion deal over concerns that Microsoft could make some of Activision's best games exclusive to Xbox. On Monday, the Federal Trade Commission sued to block Microsoft and Activision from completing their merger in the U.S. PlayStation has its own exclusives—including top-sellers Last of Us, the Marvel Spider-Man games and some Final Fantasy games. But Sony has argued to antitrust regulators around the world that Microsoft's decision to make ZeniMax games like Starfield and Redfall exclusive to Xbox shows that Microsoft has the ability and incentive to foreclose rivals to games it acquires through big mergers. British regulators have also moved to block the deal, though other countries have approved it, including regulators representing the 27-nation European Union. Microsoft's ongoing battle to close the Activision deal and build enthusiasm for its existing stock of games comes at a slow period for game sales after interest soared at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. Consumer spending on video games and hardware in the U.S. was $4.1 billion in April, a 5% drop from a year ago, according to Circana. A 6% decline in game revenue was partly offset by 7% growth in hardware sales, particularly for the PlayStation 5 and Switch. It marked the best April for console sales since the pandemic caused a sales spike in 2020.

https://www.gamespot.com/articles/cod-warzone-how-to-destroy-zaya-observatory-in-standard-br/1100-6517009/#google_vignett Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 was revealed inside of Warzone with the new Shadow Siege event, which tasks players with bombing Al Mazrah's Zaya Observatory in order to obtain chemical weapons from an underground bunker. While this is a special LTM mode, you can also complete these steps to bomb the map in standard battle royale, earning you access to all the loot hidden from this secret bunker. How to bomb Zaya Observatory Bombing Zaya Observatory in the Shadow Siege mode completely changes the landscape of the area, but the map looks undamaged in standard matches. However, you can still complete steps to bomb the map mid-game. You'll see purple smoke flares on the map as you drop into your match. These are marking the locations of the giant missiles activated during the Shadow Siege event. Unlike in the event, you won't need to activate all eight of the missile launchers. You'll only need to activate five of them. This can be done in solos if you have a vehicle to get around the map quickly, but this will be faster by splitting up in squads. All locations can be found marked on the screenshot below. AI won't attack you as they do in the event, so activating these missiles can be really quick. Just make sure to drop in and grab a weapon and a vehicle to try and get all of these activated before the gas starts to collapse on the areas. It will be best to watch where the circle is going, and head to farthest locations and then move inwards. You don't even need to activate all five for your team, as it seems anyone on the map can be working towards the same goal. You'll get sound cues and text prompts showing when a missile has been activated. Once five have been collectively activated on the map, a new text prompt will say "Observatory attack initiated." Then, the Zaya Observatory will be bombed in the same fashion as the Shadow Siege event, and you'll see white bunker icons around the observatory that let you enter the new area. This bunker holds several orange boxes, so you'll have plenty of loot for you and your squad. Make sure to check out all the major announcements for Modern Warfare 3, including Zombies details, remastered maps, perk changes, and more. For more on Warzone, we have recommended loadouts to try for Season 5, and we highlight some best loot locations for DMZ.

https://www.pcgamer.com/baldurs-gate-3s-chaotic-dark-urge-origin-is-potentially-the-most-heroic-playthrough-says-lead-writer/ Of all the origin character choices in Baldur's Gate 3, the Dark Urge is the weirdest. It isn't a character, really, but a state of mind. As the Dark Urge, you have no memories of your past at all, only a sense that you've done unspeakable things and that an unknown force within you wants you to continue spreading chaos and violence. Baldur's Gate 3 lead writer Adam Smith is currently playing his own Dark Urge character, and tells us that despite first impressions, this may be the most heroic of them all. I'm doing Dark Urge because I've done just about every combination of class, race, and background imaginable," Smith tells us during today's PC Gamer Chat Log podcast. He says he spent a lot of time playtesting the Dark Urge origin, too, but "never got to play it from beginning to end as a full, genuine true run without cheating." Smith says he's all about roleplaying and loves the chaos of his Dark Urge Monk. "I'm playing the Dark Urge who's resisting all the terrible things and is deeply regretful of all the terrible things that have happened," Smith says. I do love a tortured, remorseful hero. And there are a lot urges he'll need to resist: One of the earliest things the Dark Urge can do is bite off Gale's arm instead of pulling him out of that magic portal you find him in. But Adam Smith doesn't want the Dark Urge to be misunderstood. "To me—and I'll be as spoiler light as possible—the Dark Urge is potentially the most heroic playthrough, because resisting what's inside you and actually getting through that and surviving it with your friends alongside you still, most of them intact, is I think the most heroic version of the game." "Potentially," Smith says, which I take to mean that yes you can absolutely play a chaotic awful Dark Urge all the way through to the end, but that if you're conscious and shrewd, those very urges may be what allows you to seal the deal on a good ending. Personally, I'm nowhere near close to finishing the story as my non-Dark Urge character. If you are, and you're feeling spoilery and curious, check out our guide to the Baldur's Gate 3 endings. We've also not gotten through an entire Dark Urge run yet, mind, so maybe the best endings, if you believe Smith, are yet to be uncovered.

https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-66521633 Rishi Sunak has said it is difficult for people to understand the scale of government support with energy bills, as he defended his record on tackling the cost of living. The prime minister said halving inflation was a top priority and his plan to ease rising prices was working. It comes as the latest figures showed inflation slowed last month due to lower energy costs. But food, restaurants and hotel costs are still rising. The inflation rate, which measures price changes over time, fell to 6.8% in the year to July, down from 7.9% in June. This means prices are rising less quickly. Inflation is much lower than it was at its peak of 11.1% in October, but it still remains high compared to historical rates and much higher than the Bank of England's 2% target. Why is UK inflation so high? What can I do if I can't pay my energy bill? Speaking at a business event in Enderby, Leicestershire, Mr Sunak said that unlike furlough, where the government subsidised wages of employees hit by the Covid pandemic, "no one quite understands the scale of what we've done" with energy bill support. "A typical family will have had about half their energy bills paid for by the government over past several months - that's worth £1,500 to a typical family," he said. "Now you wouldn't have quite seen that because you would have still just got your energy bill, it would have been very high and you'd have been, 'Oh my gosh, what's going on', but what you wouldn't have realised, maybe, is that before that even happened, £1,500 had been lopped off, and the government had covered it." Under the Energy Price Guarantee, the government limited energy bills for a typical household to £2,500 a year, alongside a £400 winter discount. However, the guarantee ended in July. A Labour Party spokesperson said: "Rishi Sunak might want to patronise people by telling them they don't understand what's going on, but most families know that it was the Conservatives that crashed the economy and left them worse off, with higher bills and higher prices in the shops." The Liberal Democrats described Mr Sunak's comments as "woefully out of touch". The party's Cabinet Office spokeswoman Christine Jardine said: "Does he expect the public to give the Conservative Party a pat on the back for crashing the economy and adding hundreds of pounds a month to people's mortgages? "He just does not get it."

https://www.nbcnews.com/business/personal-finance/pet-insurance-dogs-cats-rising-prices-denied-claims-rcna93933 When Jeff Foose welcomed Lucy, a Boston terrier, into his family in 2014, protecting her health was a big concern. His veterinarian recommended pet health insurance from a company called Trupanion, and Foose bought in. He appreciated that the company’s policy promised it would never raise his premiums by more than 20% a year. That pledge didn’t last long. Trupanion has raised Lucy’s premiums by well over that limit in some years, his documents show, and Trupanion just told him that he and other pet owners in New Jersey could see their premiums rise 33.6% this year. Making matters worse, Foose said he can’t change insurance carriers because Lucy has a skin condition that a new insurer would likely not cover. Seattle-based Trupanion, the leader in the pet insurance field, says it must raise premiums because vet costs are rising. Foose is unhappy. “It makes me crazy when someone sells me something and they make an embedded promise they don’t keep,” he told NBC News. Some 5.4 million pet insurance policies were in force across the U.S. in 2022, up over 21% from a year earlier, according to the North American Pet Health Insurance Association. Trupanion insured 1.5 million pets as of December 2022, its financial filings state, roughly triple the number it did in 2018. Since 2018, the number of insured pets in the U.S. has risen almost 23% a year, on average. Roughly 80% of insured pets are dogs, with cats making up the rest. As pet insurance has increased in po[CENSORED]rity, consumer criticisms have risen as well. They fall into three main categories, veterinarians say — long waits for claims reimbursement, denial of claims for pre-existing conditions and premium increases. Jeffrey Foose's Boston terrier, Lucy. Jeffrey Foose's Boston terrier, Lucy.Courtesy Jeffrey Foose Costs of goods and services are up everywhere and pet care is no exception. Government data shows the costs of veterinary services rose 10.6% in July, year over year. Trupanion’s recent increases well exceed that rate, regulatory and customer documents show. Victoria Boyd, for example, shares her Las Vegas home with two cockapoos, one Shih Tzu and a Labrador retriever, and said the cost of covering their veterinary care with Trupanion is becoming a financial burden — approaching $400 a month. Like Foose, Boyd says she would have a hard time getting coverage on one of her dogs from a new insurer because of a pre-existing condition. In just two years, the cost of insuring one of her cockapoos has risen 57%, from $77.94 to $122.11, Boyd’s documents show. In June, her monthly premium covering her Lab, Chance, rose 38% from 2022. Boyd said she has never filed an insurance claim on Chance A customer of Trupanion since 2017, Boyd said she was a fan of the insurer at first. “Their rates were great before and the positives of Trupanion are direct pay to vets and no payout limits for condition or ailment,” Boyd told NBC News. But now, she said, “it feels like a bait and switch — you got me in at these great rates and I’m almost trapped.” Margi Tooth, Trupanion’s president, said she was disappointed by Boyd’s view. “I think we work very hard to ensure that we’re explaining our value proposition,” she said. The company’s price hikes are the result of vet cost inflation, Tooth said, and the rising costs of care in a customer’s specific region. Tooth did not say why Trupanion had raised Foose’s premiums above the cap stated in his policy. She did say, “If there were ever any changes to a customer’s policy, the coverage, the benefits, the pricing, everything is always detailed in an annual summary and will provide information related to the changes in our coverage.” Companies offering pet insurance are overseen by state regulators, and some of the rate increases recently requested by Trupanion are far higher than the overall inflation rate. In June, the company asked the Florida insurance regulator for a 48.9% price increase on top of a 14% hike that the regulator approved in February. Earlier this year in California, Trupanion asked for a 28% rate increase; the regulator approved only a 12% rise. In its SEC filings, Trupanion says if state regulators delay its price increases, the company’s financial condition could be adversely affected. Bradley Safalow, an analyst who covers Trupanion at PAA Research, said he believes Trupanion will continue to face regulatory opposition to its price increases and he is betting its stock price will decline. Policyholders in California account for almost 20% of the company’s revenues, Safalow noted. NBC News compared prices among five big pet insurance providers — Embrace, Figo, MetLife, Pets Best and Trupanion. The same dog breed, age and size was used for each quote, aiming for 90% coverage and a low deductible of $200 to $500. Trupanion’s rate came in three to four times the costs of the other four providers on both a 3-year-old and a 6-year-old male Jack Russell terrier mix. Asked what accounted for the price differences, Laura Bainbridge, Trupanion’s head of corporate communications, said, “Products are not comparable across pet insurance. Trupanion is going to generally offer the fewest exclusions — covering conditions that a pet may be predisposed to.” Tooth said the company’s product is a good value because it does not have limits or caps on coverage as other offerings do and it pays the vet directly. “You’ve got lifetime coverage that covers the unexpected,” Tooth said. “It’s built for the life of your pet.”

https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/66502158 The 18-year-old winger had been introduced for Nicky Butt as a 61st-minute substitute in Manchester United's season opener against Bolton at Old Trafford on 16 August 2003. About 60 seconds later, Ronaldo took the ball close to the touchline just inside his own half, near the dugouts, and stepped inside Bolton defender Nicky Hunt, who was only 19 himself and making his top-flight debut. Ronaldo had three touches with his right foot before Hunt slid in and took the ball away from the young Portuguese. "When he came on, my first thought wasn't 'I am in absolute trouble, he is going to skin me alive'," recalled Hunt in a chat with BBC Sport. "I had just done 70 minutes and thought I had done OK. We were only 1-0 down and to me it was just another player. "It was my job to go and tackle him. That is what I did. I smashed him - twice. Then he ran rings round me." 'One of the most exciting young players I have seen' Nicky Hunt and Cristiano Ronaldo challenge for the ball at Old Trafford in August 2003 Nicky Hunt (left) spent several seasons in the Premier League with Bolton It is two decades now since that game - and no-one who was there will ever forget Ronaldo's cameo. It came four days after United signed him from Sporting Lisbon for £12.2m, and nine days after Ronaldo had turned in a magical performance for the Portuguese club in a pre-season friendly against Sir Alex Ferguson's side, who were on their way back from an arduous four-match tour of the United States. Defender John O'Shea has rejected Rio Ferdinand's claim he needed an "oxygen mask" at half-time in Lisbon such was the difficulty he was having in subduing Ronaldo. But the Irishman was impressed, stating that before kick-off "he stared me in the face [to say] I'm ready". It was an attitude that backed up unusually bullish quotes from Ferguson in the official statement confirming Ronaldo's arrival. "He is an extremely talented footballer, a two-footed attacker who can play anywhere up front: right, left or through the middle. He is one of the most exciting young players I've ever seen," the United boss said. Cristiano Ronaldo replaces Nicky Butt on his Manchester United debut Cristiano Ronaldo replaced Nicky Butt for his Manchester United debut in August 2003 As United had also handed over the iconic number seven shirt left free after David Beckham's departure for Real Madrid, they could not be accused of underplaying their hand. "We were trying to prepare for our first game and there was all the hype about this 18-year-old Diego Maradona-esque player," said Hunt. "We were trying to ignore it but it just became bigger and bigger. It was in all the papers, on all the TV programmes and the internet. It was impossible to ignore. "Anybody in the professional game would be lying if they were playing against someone with a massive pedigree like that and said they didn't look over as he came out for the warm-up. "When I saw him, he was stick thin. I was a really skinny player. He was scrawny. Black hair with blonde highlights, full of acne. You are thinking 'he is really young, he can't be as good as they are all making out'. But he was. " 'We're not leaving without him' Sir Alex Ferguson alongside new Manchester United players Kleberson and Cristiano Ronaldo in 2003 Cristiano Ronaldo joined Manchester United in the same summer as Brazilian midfielder Kleberson Few of United's players were enthusiastic about the prospect of the Lisbon trip. After a gruelling tour, most wanted to get home - as shown by their 3-1 defeat at the end of a week that included beating Juventus and Barcelona in front of combined audiences of almost 150,000 in New Jersey and Philadelphia. But without it, the club might have missed out on the man Ferguson said in his most recent autobiography was "the most gifted player I managed". United had a coaching agreement with Sporting, were aware of Ronaldo and had already come to a loose deal for the teenager to remain in Portugal for two more years before he moved to England. However, neither Ronaldo, nor his agent Jorge Mendes, had been informed of this. Some of the world's biggest clubs were circling. At half-time of the friendly, Ferguson told his trusted kitman Albert Morgan to find chief executive Peter Kenyon and bring him down to the dressing room area. When Kenyon arrived, the message was blunt: "We are not leaving this ground until we have that boy signed." United's players now knew all about Ronaldo's talent but as they sat waiting to leave for home, they had no idea of the discussions taking place in the bowels of the stadium. Ferguson's pitch to the player navigated the tricky balance of telling him he was brilliant and perfect for United and cautioning him it would be too much to start every game immediately. It was the start of an enduring relationship which means Ronaldo still refers to the 81-year-old as his "father in football", despite his ill-fated return to Old Trafford which came to a disappointing and controversial end in December. 'He was unmarkable at times' Cristiano Ronaldo gets past Lee Naylor of Wolves in a game in 2003 Cristiano Ronaldo came off the bench in his first two Manchester United games - against Bolton and Wolves Ferguson stuck to his word following Ronaldo's arrival. He put him on the bench - for two games. In fairness, it would be three years before United's coaching staff turned him into a world-beater, ensuring those famed stepovers turned into consistent game-changing contributions. Hunt was the first Premier League full-back tasked with trying to deal with Ronaldo's quick feet - and would not be the last to struggle. "I was fortunate in the sense I had just had a full pre-season training with Jay-Jay Okocha," said Hunt. "He was also known for skills and would do a couple of stepovers, so I knew how it worked. "But Ronaldo could do more, six or seven on the bounce it felt like. And he could go with both feet, which was even more of a challenge. He could also cross with both feet and shoot with both feet. "I was in a catch-22 situation. My main focus was to watch the ball and keep him away from the goal. For the first five minutes I did that, for the last 17 he was all over the place. He was unmarkable at times. "He was doing all these stepovers and I was thinking 'how can one person do that?' - I thought he was going left and he would go right. I thought he was going down the line and he would check back. "Growing up through school, there were two or three of us who were the best. When I signed professional forms, it was surreal training with a Bolton squad that had World Cup winners in it. "But when you step on to a pitch with Manchester United players, it was the next level up. "The more I played that first season, the more I understood what levels there were. I was intermediate, then there was top and above that, exceptional." 'We all knew what happened' Cristiano Ronaldo stands next to Sir Alex Ferguson Sir Alex Ferguson had a significant influence on Cristiano Ronaldo's career It is clear Ronaldo was in the exceptional category. But there were flaws that needed ironing out. "In his early days, I accept, he showboated a lot," said Ferguson, who also described the young Ronaldo as "a wee show-off desperate to convince everyone how good he was". The Scot recalled team-mates ridiculing the Portuguese at United's Carrington training ground when he went down screaming in apparent agony. It was part of the transition that saw Ronaldo go from scoring six goals in that first season, to 42 in 2007-08 when he helped United win the Premier League and Champions League and won the Ballon d'Or for the first time. Given how the future was to unfold, Hunt accepts he made a mistake in not securing Ronaldo's shirt to mark his own Premier League debut. Instead he went for England centre-half Ferdinand. "A marvellous debut" was how Ferguson assessed Ronaldo's first United appearance at the time. More recently, he described it as "bloody fantastic" and a display that created a problem of not being able to hold a player of such talent back. After Ronaldo's introduction, United had added three more goals (through Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes and Ruud van Nistelrooy) to win 4-0 - and the mood in the Bolton dressing room was reflective. "It was surreal for me," said Hunt. "The whole day was. It was my debut in front of so many people. I was gutted we had lost. "But Sam [Allardyce, Bolton's manager] didn't go mad after the game. He said we were in the game for 75 minutes. "As players, we just sat and looked at each other. [Assistant manager] Phil Brown shrugged his shoulders and smiled.

https://indianexpress.com/article/lifestyle/life-style/taylor-swift-inspired-literature-course-belgian-university-8894922/ While universities in the United States might be the first to include courses and units on popstar Taylor Swift’s legendary lyrics, Europe is swiftly catching up with the University of Ghent in Belgium launching its own Taylor Swift-inspired literature course. The course titled “Literature: Taylor’s Version” — a reference to the singer’s re-recorded album titles — will be taught by British professor Elly McCausland. Due to start in the fall, it will be added to the master’s degree in language and literature. McCausland, who is also the author of the blog “Swifterature”, which compares the popstar’s themes, imagery and use of language to prolific writers like Sylvia Plath, Charles Dickens and William Shakespeare, told The Guardian that she has never received so many emails from excited students asking if they can take the course. “And actually, non-students as well, people who are not part of the university and who want to participate in some way,” she said. The professor pitched the idea of a Swift-centered elective — first of its kind in Europe — after the singer’s lyrics drew a parallel with the English literature she had long studied. “Highly prolific and autobiographical in her songwriting, Swift makes frequent allusions to canonical literary texts in her music,” the class syllabus explains. “Using Swift’s work as a springboard, we will explore, among other topics, literary feminism, ecocriticism, fan studies, and tropes such as the anti-hero. Swift’s enduring po[CENSORED]rity stems, at least in part, from the heavily intertextual aspect of her work, and this course will dig deeper to explore its literary roots. ” Freedom Sale In Swift’s song The Great War McCausland saw a resemblance to how Plath spoke about war and battle to convey her pain in the poem Daddy, while the singer’s Mad Woman and the story it tells about patriarchy and mental health saw echoes of Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s short story The Yellow Wallpaper. “What I want to do is show students that although these texts might seem inaccessible, they can be accessible if we look at them from a slightly different angle,” McCausland told the outlet. “So, Shakespeare, in some way, is actually addressing a lot of the same questions as Taylor Swift is today, which seems crazy. But he is.” But Swift isn’t the first pop star to attract the attention of academia. Before this, Beyoncé’s visual album “Lemonade” and its relationship to Black feminism was unpacked by the University of Texas in an English Literature course. The University of Copenhagen too began offering “Beyoncé, Gender and Race”. However, McCausland’s course has not been received well by everyone, with critics calling it frivolous and silly. But, in general, the atmosphere has been cordial with many people enthusiastic about it. “There’s been only a couple of outright critical voices, and that only really reaffirms what I’m trying to do — even the hate mail I find quite wonderful, to be honest! I mean, don’t print that quote as in ‘send more hate mail’ please,” she told CNN.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-66518502 The first names of people killed by wildfires in Maui have been released by officials, one week after at least 106 people died on the Hawaiian island. Just two people - Robert Dyckman, 74, and Buddy Jantoc, 79 - were named. Three others were identified but their names are being withheld until their families are notified. The catastrophic fire, which destroyed the historic town of Lahaina within hours, has been followed by a slow and gruelling search for victims. Mr Jantoc's body was discovered at his home in a senior-living facility in Lahaina, the New York Times reported. Relatives told the newspaper that he was known by family as "Mr Aloha" and regaled them with tales of his heyday as a bass guitarist playing alongside Carlos Santana and George Benson. "I'm hoping he was asleep," his daughter-in-law said. "I hope to God he did not suffer." Twenty sniffer dogs trained to detect bodies have led teams on a block-by-block search of the wreckage, a 5sq mile (13sq km) area now filled with twisted metal and other debris. Another 20 canine teams are expected to join the search, said Federal Emergency Management Agency (Fema) Administrator Deanne Criswell on Wednesday. "This is a really hard disaster. And this is a really difficult search operation," she said told reporters in Washington DC. "This is also going to be a very long and hard recovery." As of Tuesday evening, 27% of the disaster site had been searched, Governor Josh Green said in a televised address. He said the number of dead could climb significantly and even double over the next 10 days. Officials must then complete the difficult work of identifying the dead, a process complicated by the severity of the victims' burns and one that requires DNA samples and forensic experts. Thirty specialists from federal mortuary teams are already in Maui and will soon be joined by more from the US defence department. US President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden will travel to Hawaii on Monday, the White House said in a statement. Mr Biden was asked by a reporter over the weekend about the rising death toll in Hawaii and responded: "No comment. " The president's apparent delay in visiting Maui, as well as that remark, has angered many locals, who told the BBC they see his absence as a slap in the face. "Hey Mr President, how about Hawaii?" said Chaymen Enomoto. "'No comment'? That is a big screw you." Mr Biden said on Tuesday that he had not yet visited because of concerns it would divert resources and attention from the humanitarian response. Jill Biden will accompany him to Hawaii, he said. "I don't want to get in the way. I've been to too many disaster areas," he said. "I want to be sure we don't disrupt ongoing recovery efforts."

https://techxplore.com/news/2023-08-end-call-button-iphone-apple-ios.html Hanging up that phone call? The location of Apple's red end-call button is set to slightly move with upcoming iOS 17 updates to the phone app, so be wary of your thumb's muscle memory. As iPhone users know, the "End" button currently sits prominently away from other call options, in a center position towards the bottom of the screen. But with iOS 17, which officially launches this fall, the red icon will move the right—and other features will move down to join it. While a iOS 17 preview guide from Apple showed this new setup in June, renewed attention has increased as some explore beta versions of the software upgrade. Images from iOS 17 beta versions shared by multiple news outlets this week show the small—but potentially frustrating—change. Beyond the end button, there are additional changes to the placement of other call features seen on past iOS versions. The "Mute" and "Speaker" buttons, for example, have swapped—as have the "FaceTime" and "Keyboard" options. And it appears the feature allowing you to search for contacts has merged with the add call option. The changes have already received reactions on social media, where some predict having some muscle memory errors—noting it could take some time to adjust. It's unclear if the call functions will change further before iOS 17 officially rolls out. The Associated Press reached out to Apple for comment Wednesday. As Apple notes on its website, the company's beta program allows some Apple users to test out software before it's released. Feedback from participants helps Apple identify issues and improve software programs before they're commercially released. Beyond potential tweaks to call icon locations, iOS 17 is set to bring an array of new features to Apple customers—including improved autocorrect, a new journal app and live voicemail transcription with the ability to pick up and answer as someone is leaving a message.

https://www.tomshardware.com/news/threadripper-pro-7995wx-benchmark-shows-96-zen-4-cores-up-to-51-ghz AMD's forthcoming Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX (Storm Peak) will undoubtedly disrupt the list of best CPUs for workstations. The multi-core beast, which will lead the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7000WX army, has been spotted in a new benchmark with 96 cores and boost clock speeds up to 5.1 GHz. The Geekbench 5 submission (via Benchleaks) exposes the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX with 96 cores and 192 threads. The next-generation workstation flagship represents a 50% increase in core count over the existing Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5995WX (Chagall). It also ports 60% more cores than Intel's Xeon Platinum 8490H (Sapphire Rapids) server chip. The Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX is a risky bet on AMD's part since it's almost a carbon copy of the company's EPYC 9654 (Genoa) processor, which retails for $11,805. There will be a difference in features between the Threadripper Pro and EPYC platforms. Only a handful of processors can compete with Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX regarding core count. Only EPYC Bergamo, which scales up to 128 cores, has more cores. Sponsored Links If You Need To Relax On Your Computer, You Have To Play This Game. No Install Elvenar Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX also comes with a significant upgrade in the cache subsystem. The Zen 4-powered workstation chip also wields 384MB of L3 cache and 96MB of L2 cache. That's the same design on the EPYC 9654. however, in comparison to the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5995WX, the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX flaunts 50% more L3 cache and up to 3X as much L2 cache. *Specifications are unconfirmed. Ignore the Geekbench 5-reported 7.97 GHz base clock, since it's an obvious error. However, digging deeper into the Geekbench 5 report shows that the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX was reportedly boosted to 5,140 MHz, which probably is the single-core boost clock. The Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5995WX has a 4.5 GHz single-boost clock, so the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX's rocking a 14% higher single-boost clock. Compared to the EPYC 9564, the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX has a 38% higher boost clock. In a way, you could consider the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX to be a faster-clocked EPYC 9564. An important factor will be the pricing — the EPYC 9564 costs $11,805, so it'll be interesting to see how AMD prices the nearly-equal Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX. Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX. As with all leaked benchmarks, take these with a grain (or several) of salt. The Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX scored 2,095 and 81,408 points on the single-and multi-core tests, respectively. Compared to the nearly identical Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5995WX submission, the new chip has a 26% higher single-core performance. In terms of multi-core performance, we're looking at around 49%. The exact numbers will likely differ slightly, so these values are more general ballpark figures. If the information from a leaked shipping document is legit, the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX may have a 350W TDP — the same as the Xeon Platinum 8490H. This TDP rating looks reasonable, since the EPYC 9564's TDP varies between 320W to 400W. In this case, the 96-core Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX seemingly has a 25% higher TDP than the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 5995WX, probably to lodge the extra cores and higher clock speeds. The leaked document with today's Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX benchmark hints at an imminent launch for the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7000WX series. We saw a couple of upcoming Noctua Threadripper CPU air coolers at Computex 2023 with an ETA of October, and the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7000WX series will likely hit the market around that timeframe.

https://www.gamespot.com/articles/call-of-duty-is-getting-a-central-hub-for-the-franchise-going-forward/1100-6516935/ "Starting with Modern Warfare II and Warzone, and now with Modern Warfare III and beyond, players can navigate all their content in one place, we call it Call of Duty HQ--making it easier to select which game and modes you wish to play," the blog post reads. While the name is new, having a hub for multiple Call of Duty games isn't an original concept. For multiple years running, players have been able to access multiple Call of Duty games from the main menu of whatever the latest installment of the franchise is. Call of Duty HQ sounds like it's taking that to another level with a commitment to house all of the franchise's games under one roof going forward. Having multiple Call of Duty games all in one place makes sense, especially considering Modern Warfare III will be the first time the franchise has released a direct sequel in back-to-back years. Players' cosmetics and weapons will all carry over from Modern Warfare II into Modern Warfare III, and the game's campaign will pick up where last year's game left off. Modern Warfare II, Modern Warfare III, and Warzone are all closely intertwined, once again giving an incentive for Activision to group all the various facets of the ever-growing franchise in one place. Modern Warfare III will be revealed inside of Warzone via a special event called Shadow Siege. Only a few details about the latest installment in the franchise are known ahead of the full reveal, but it has been confirmed that Zombies will be returning after sitting out last year's game. Reports have also indicated that multiplayer maps from the original Modern Warfare 2 will be remade for Modern Warfare III and that the classic red dot mini-map may make a return. Players who preorder will be able to play Modern Warfare III's campaign a week early, with the full version of the game arriving on November 10.

https://www.pcgamer.com/thank-god-baldurs-gate-3-will-eventually-let-you-change-your-characters-looks/ Fellow fans of a mid-playthrough character makeover rejoice, for Baldur's Gate 3 should be rectifying its biggest mistake sometime in the future. Larian's RPG has a chokehold on everyone here at PC Gamer, plus the 850,000 other people who've been rolling dice and save scumming the hell out of their games alongside us. The most glaring omission, for me at least, has been a distinct absence of any sort of appearance change option. Once you make your character you're locked in for life, baby. Change your mind about your hairstyle or makeup? Tough luck, either start again or suck it up for the next 200 hours. I have been desperate to give my Baldur's Gate 3 protagonist a makeover for hours now, and thankfully it seems like I'll be able to do it in the future. Twitter user TheTrustedTitan went to director of publishing Michael Douse to say what we've all been thinking: "Sir please let me change how i look in the game. I'm BEGGING!!!!" I can only take that to mean that we'll be able to do a bit of tweaking to our character in a future patch, hopefully one that arrives sooner rather than later. No word on how much we'll be able to change—whether it'll be a full re-creator with the ability to change race, or if we'll be locked to some small cosmetic tweaks—but I'll be ecstatic for the option either way. I assume it'll be tacked onto Withers' current job of helping players respec their entire party, but it'd be nice to give the barbershop in Baldur's Gate a few jobs, too. Fingers crossed we'll be able to save appearances, too.
