  3. What is the best work from home laptop? As much of the world transitions to working and learning from home, the kind of technology we use has become extraordinarily important. We don't have the support of a trained IT staff, or corporate office infrastructure, so reliability is paramount. Many of us have had to provide for ourselves and upgrade our own laptops, smartphones, cameras, and multiple accessories. Tools such as video conferencing have become indispensable, but we still have to address core requirements such as staying in touch and managing multiple tasks, all while meeting deadlines. Multiple people in a household often have to share computers or work across different devices. If you find yourself wondering how best to adapt to this new world, we have some tips. This is a good time to invest in exactly the kind of equipment you need. We've put together a short guide to buying a new laptop, focusing on features that will be important for people working and learning from home. What to look for in a laptop for working from home Most manufacturers have been pushing extremely thin and light 13-inch and 14-inch models for the past few years, but portability isn't our biggest concern when we're sitting at home. If you have to deal with long commutes and rushing from place to place for meetings and presentations, you'd choose something as light as possible, but that isn't a priority right now. Instead, we can look at the 15-inch segment which has plenty of affordable options. Larger screens are great for multi-tasking, working with lots of content, creative workflows, and of course video conferencing, which is the new normal. Even though screen resolution is usually common at 1920x1080 across sizes, you can take advantage of scaling options in Windows 10 and various applications. Larger laptops also often benefit from better keyboard layouts and more generous trackpads. You're likely to find keyboards with number pads in the 15-inch segment, although these are sometimes cramped. We will be paying close attention to keyboard layout, since productivity depends on being able to type quickly and efficiently without having to adjust to awkward key positioning and constantly check what you're doing. Ports and connectivity matter a lot, especially if you're juggling external hard drives, printers, webcams, headsets, SD cards, and other tools. In fact, we would recommend using a full-sized desktop keyboard and mouse, and elevating your laptop on a table, for a more comfortable posture. Ultraportable laptops might feature only one or two USB Type-C ports but we're looking for plenty of legacy USB ports as well as audio and video outputs, networking, and expansion. Your work might involve simple office tasks such as typing emails, or it might scale to intense workflows involving video editing and production, graphics and animation, software development, or heavy database access. As the situation evolves, you might also find yourself taking on new tasks and learning new skills. Not everyone needs top-tier hardware but it's always good to have more power plus the ability to upgrade down the line. We'll be looking for premium processors, discrete GPUs, fast SSDs, and of course upgradeable RAM and storage. Internet connectivity will be the lifeblood of every stay-at-home worker. You can't be interrupted in the middle of a lecture or video call. Wi-Fi and webcam hardware quality is hard to determine from product listings, so companies that pay attention to such details will also be noticed. Of course we expect our machines to multitask as much as we do. It would be great to have high-quality screens and speakers to watch movies with, and some power under the hood to run modern games. Beyond that, there are things that don't matter quite as much, but are still important in the bigger picture for now as well as the future. These include battery life, ruggedness, cooling efficiency, weight, and aesthetic style. Which laptops to buy for working from home? We have shortlisted several models, sorted by price and segment, that would be suitable for working as well as learning while based at home, plus general-purpose use. These are all available in retail to end users and can be ordered online, which many buyers will prefer. Prices do tend to vary, especially around the upcoming shopping and holiday season, so do check for variants with slightly different specifications. We are not considering refurbished models, although interested buyers should also check for deals on suitable products. While we have not reviewed all the laptops named below, we have compiled detailed information directly from manufacturers as well as from multiple third-party sources. We have considered all aspects of their design, configuration, features, ergonomics, and value for money. We selected only laptops with Windows 10 preloaded. Work from home laptops under Rs. 20,000 While cost is undoubtedly the biggest factor in most people's buying decisions, recent economic factors have led to a general increase in prices across the industry and bargains are hard to find. There are very few laptops available for under Rs. 20,000 and these have extremely basic specifications. Still, they might be suitable for light tasks, general productivity and staying in touch. iBall and Avita are two companies to look out for. iBall's Compbook models are traditional clamshell laptops and we have been satisfied with the performance on offer considering the price. The Avita Magus Lite is a 2-in-1 tablet with a touchscreen and fold-out keyboard cover which could also work for basic tasks. At this price level you'll get a simple Intel Celeron or Pentium processor, 32GB or 64GB of storage, and very basic connectivity. Work from home laptops under Rs. 30,000 The Asus VivoBook 15 M509DA is an interesting option, slipping in right within our budget with a variant priced at Rs. 29,985. It features a modern AMD Athlon Silver CPU with basic integrated Radeon Vega graphics. You get 4GB of RAM, a 1TB hard drive, 15.6-inch full-HD screen, a USB Type-C port, and a keyboard with number pad. Lenovo's Ideapad S145 features a relatively powerful Ryzen 3 3200U CPU with integrated Radeon Vega graphics, 4GB of RAM and a 1TB hard drive. You get a 15.6-inch full-HD screen and a full-sized keyboard. This laptop is listed with Windows 10 Home for Rs. 28,990. The Acer One Z2-485 is priced at Rs. 26,980 and features an Intel Pentium Gold 4415U processor with 4GB of RAM and a 1TB hard drive. Windows 10 is preinstalled. The screen is a 14-inch 1366x768 panel, which isn't ideal, but otherwise the basics are all in place and the weight is under 2kg. The ASUS E410MA is a rather different option, weighing only 1.3kg and featuring colourful, patterned lid designs. Priced at Rs. 29,999, you get a 14-inch full-HD screen, virtual number pad on the trackpad, Intel Pentium Silver N5030 CPU, 4GB of RAM, and 256GB SSD. HP offers its 250 G7 2A9A5PA business laptop at Rs. 28,999. It features an Intel Celeron N4020 CPU, 4GB of RAM, 1TB hard drive, and a 15.6-inch 1366x768-pixel screen. There's a 720p webcam and keyboard with number pad, and HP touts its durable, business-grade chassis. Work from home laptops under Rs. 50,000 HP lists its 15s-eq0024au laptop for Rs. 43,499 with an AMD Ryzen 5 3500U processor, 8GB of RAM and 512GB SSD. There's a 15.6-inch full-HD screen and HD webcam, plus full-sized keyboard. Windows 10 as well as Office Home & Student 2019. The Lenovo Ideapad Slim 3i features an Intel Core i5-1035G1 CPU, 8GB of RAM and 512GB SSD. Windows 10 and Office Home & Student 2019 are preloaded. You get a 14-inch full-HD screen and there's no number pad, but this model weighs 1.6kg. The list price is Rs. 49,990. Xiaomi's Mi Notebook 14 is available in three configurations below Rs. 50,000. Pushing right up against that at Rs. 49,999, you can get an Intel Core i5-10210 CPU, 8GB of RAM, a 512GB SSD, a 14-inch full-HD screen, and even a basic Nvidia GeForce MX250 discrete GPU. Windows 10 Home is included and the company promises 10 hours of battery life, in a 1.5kg body with slim screen borders. An external 720p webcam is included. https://gadgets360.com/laptops/guide/laptop-30000-40000-50000-work-learn-from-home-price-india-dell-hp-lenovo-acer-asus-mi-flipkart-amazon-2310779
  4. Introduction Xiaomi's budget Poco line hardly needs an introduction. Many models in the family have been enjoying enormous po[CENSORED]rity due to their great value proposition. The Poco M line is now up to its fourth generation, and today we have the vanilla Poco M4 5G for review. Since Poco's naming scheme is kind of a mess right now, a bit of clarification is in order. The Poco M4 5G appears to be positioned as the cheapest offer in the current Poco M4 lineup. It is arguably more related to the Poco M4 Pro 5G than the Poco M4 Pro, by rocking a similar size 6.58-inch 90Hz LCD display as that model. In most other aspects, the Poco M4 5G is a downgrade compared to the M4 Pro 5G, though. One more point of clarification which is really crucial - the phone we have for review today is the global version of the Poco M4 5G. Compared to the older Indian variant, it has a lesser camera setup with a 13MP main camera, instead of 50MP and a 5MP selfie, instead of 8MP. Xiaomi Poco M4 5G specs at a glance: Body: 164.0x76.1x8.9mm, 200g; Glass front (Gorilla Glass 3), plastic frame, plastic back; Splash resistant. Display: 6.58" IPS LCD, 90Hz, 1080x2400px resolution, 20:9 aspect ratio, 400ppi. Chipset: MediaTek MT6833 Dimensity 700 (7 nm): Octa-core (2x2.2 GHz Cortex-A76 & 6x2.0 GHz Cortex-A55); Mali-G57 MC2. Memory: 64GB 4GB RAM, 128GB 6GB RAM; UFS 2.2; microSDXC (dedicated slot). OS/Software: Android 12, MIUI 13. Rear camera: Wide (main): 13 MP, PDAF; Depth: 2 MP, f/2.4. Front camera: 5 MP, f/2.2, (wide), 1.0Β΅m. Video capture: Rear camera: 1080p@30fps; Front camera: 1080p@30fps. Battery: 5000mAh; Fast charging 18W. Misc: Fingerprint reader (side-mounted); NFC; Infrared port; 3.5mm jack. Both of the M4 5G variants are rocking a MediaTek Dimensity 700 chipset instead of the Dimensity 810 inside the Poco M4 Pro 5G. It only has a single speaker instead of a stereo setup, only supports 18W charging instead of 33W, has lower resolution main and selfie cameras and is just IP52 rated instead of IP53. It also omits the ultrawide snapper. Unquestionably, the M4 5G is noticeably downgraded. These downgrades should naturally be reflected in the price delta between the two, right? Well, kind of. On the Indian market, a vanilla Poco M4 5G starts at around INR 13,000 for a 64GB, 4GB unit at the time of writing, and a Poco M4 Pro 5G goes for about INR 13,500. That's hardly a substantial difference, and pricing between the two is even closer on Amazon UK and pricing for the further downgraded European version isn't much different. That puts the Poco M4 5G in a pretty tight spot right from the get-go. Still, prices change, and promos are a thing, so without further ado, let's see if the Poco M4 5G is a decent smartphone worthy of your attention, to begin with. Unboxing As usual, let's start with the box and retail package. The Poco M4 5G ships in a two-piece bright yellow, thick cardboard box. Perfect for protecting the phone during shipping and also quite attention-grabbing. In typical Poco fashion, the accessory package is relatively rich. The basics are well covered with a 22.5W Xiaomi charger. It is rated for outputs of 5V@3A, 9V@2.23A, 12V@1.67A and 10V@2.25A. It is a bit overspecked for the 18W charging cap of the Poco M4 5G itself. Alongside it, you get a USB Type-A to Type-C cable. Nothing fancy, just a short white cable. As is usually the case with Poco, a thick transparent TPU case is in the box, and the phone also ships with a pre-applied thin screen protector. Basically, everything you need to start using it confidently straight away. https://www.gsmarena.com/xiaomi_poco_m4_5g-review-2464.php
  5. Every time someone has opened a fresh Google Search page today, Florida high school student Sophie Araque-Liu has, via her artwork, has reminded them of the importance of mental health and of caring for yourself. Hers was the winning artwork chosen as part of the Doodle for Google 2022 contest. Her simple yet profound entry depicts a daughter in an emotional embrace with her mother. And all day, it’s greeting visitors to Google’s main search page. As you can see above, her image takes over the part of the logo where the two O’s would otherwise be. High schooler’s artwork on the Google Search homepage Her winning entry fulfilled a specific prompt from Google as part of this year’s Doodle for Google contest. Students were asked to design their artwork around the theme of β€œI care for myself by …” The search giant announced the finalists in July. And then, today, Google unveiled Sophie’s as the winner for the β€œthoughtfulness, heart, and artistry” her entry presented. Moreover, Google added that Sophie’s Doodle β€” titled Not Alone β€” speaks to the importance of leaning on a support system. And of asking for help in tough times. β€œI care for myself by accepting others’ care for me,” Sophie said, in a statement attached to her winning Google Doodle that adorns the Google Search page. β€œOften I struggle to shoulder a burden on my own, and forget that I have so many people, like my mom, who care about me and want to help me. Opening up and letting others support me not only relieves my stress. It lets me tackle things I could never do on my own.” In truth, we spend so much time in a kind of rapid-fire, transactional relationship with the Google Search page β€” query entered, results attained β€” that it’s nice to take a brief moment and see something like this to accompany that digital interaction. β€œAsking for help” β€œI chose to focus on the theme of asking for help based on my own experiences,” Sophie continued, in an interview with Google. β€œA couple years ago, I was struggling a lot mentally and I was honestly pretty embarrassed and scared to tell my friends and family. But when I did open up to them, I was met with so much love and support. So I really wanted to encourage others to not be afraid to look for help if they need it!” https://bgr.com/tech/the-story-behind-that-heartwarming-image-youre-seeing-on-googles-homepage-today/
  6. A study carried out by BirdLife International, on extinct birds around the world, revealed the following results. In addition to the birds that have already become extinct, the study carried out by BirdLife International, on extinct birds around the world, recommended adding eight more species to this gloomy list where the extinction of these species is confirmed. extinct birds glaucous macaw The Glaucous Macaw (Anodorhynchus glaucus), a species now considered critically endangered (possibly extinct). Pernambuco Owl The Pernambuco owlet is critically endangered (Glaucidium mooreorum), no more than 15 centimeters tall. Po'o-uli The po'o-uli (Melamprosops phaeosoma), an extinct bird endemic to the Hawaiian archipelago. Approximate extinction in 2004. Alagoas ticotico El ticotico de Alagoas (Philydor novaesi), extinct in 2011 approximately. The Spix's Macaw (Cyanopsitta spixii) should be considered extinct in the wild. However, it still exists in various captive po[CENSORED]tions, the last known individual in the wild disappearing in the late 2000s. These are some of the extinct or practically extinct bird species. Historically, bird extinctions have been caused primarily by the impact of invasive alien species (46%) and by hunting or trapping on islands (26%). However, the loss of habitats as a result of deforestation on the continents has been decisive in these latest extinctions. Read on: Why don't birds get electrocuted when perching on wires? FIVE OF THE EIGHT RECENTLY DETECTED EXTINCTIONS HAVE OCCURRED IN SOUTH AMERICA, FOUR OF THEM IN BRAZIL. "THIS SITUATION REFLECTS THE DEVASTATING EFFECTS OF THE HIGH DEGREE OF DEFORESTATION IN THIS PART OF THE WORLD," BIRDLIFE INTERNATIONAL EMPHASIZES IN A COMMUNICATION. The study authors have assessed 51 critically endangered species for eight consecutive years. On the other hand, the researchers also recommend that four species (the Glaucous Macaw, the Pernambuco Owl, the Javan Lapwing, and the Diademed Lory) previously considered critically endangered be considered possibly extinct. However, future studies are required to confirm its extinction.

  7. It corresponds to the first facelift of the second generation of this compact hatchback, present in our market since the end of October 2018 from India. Its three finishes: SEL, Plus and Value, have almost the same level of equipment, highlighting among the main elements such as: double airbag, ABS brakes, cornering braking control system, being able to choose between two alternative gasoline power plants: a 1.2-liter with 82 Hp and a five-speed manual gearbox or a 1.4 with 99 Hp and two types of gearboxes: a 6-speed manual or a conventional four-speed gearbox. https://www.autocosmos.cl/autos/hatchbacks-compactos
  8. A week after an apparent Ukrainian attack on a Russian military base in occupied Crimea, an arms store at another military facility has been hit by a series of explosions. Blaming "sabotage", Russian officials said a fire triggered the blasts in the Dzhankoi area, another fire hit a power station and a railway was damaged. A string of blasts last week destroyed Russian warplanes at a Black Sea base on the Crimean coast. Ukraine has not admitted that attack. However, presidential office adviser Mykhailo Podolyak has described the latest incident as "demilitarisation in action", indicating that the explosions were not accidental. Crimea was seized from Ukraine and then annexed by Russia in early 2014. Russia gave no indication of the kind of sabotage involved in Tuesday's attack. The FSB security service said Ukrainian saboteurs had also blown up six electricity pylons this month inside Russia itself. The attacks in the Kurchatov area, about 100km (60 miles) from Ukraine's north-east border, had affected the "technological process of functioning" of the Kursk nuclear plant, it added. However, Rosenergoatom, the operator of the plant, has disputed the FSB account and attributed the lowered output "to a fault at a sub-station outside the territory of the nuclear power plant". Russia's defence ministry said Tuesday's explosions in northern Crimea took place at a temporary ammunition storage site on a base near the village of Maiske at about 06:15 Moscow time (03:15 GMT). A Crimean Tatar leader, Refat Chubarov, called the explosions a "hit" that could be heard "far across the steppe". The defence ministry in Moscow said there had been no "serious" casualties, but Russian-appointed regional head Sergei Aksyonov visited the site and said 2,000 people had been moved from a nearby village and two people had been wounded. "One man has a shrapnel wound and one was crushed by a wall. Their lives are not in danger, fortunately," he said. The spokesman for Ukraine's Air Force Command, Yuriy Ignat, said the explosions were caused by Russia "not observing fire precautions". "We are of course satisfied by the fact, because Dzhankoi [where the explosions took place] was one of the locations where the enemy kept their helicopters and other equipment," Mr Ignat told a news conference. When Russian forces unleashed the invasion of Ukraine on 24 February, they used their bases on the annexed Crimean peninsula to capture large swathes of southern Ukraine. Russian occupation has stretched across two southern regions in particular, Kherson and Zaporizhzhia, and Ukraine has vowed to launch a counter-offensive to recapture areas under Russian control. After the Russian air base at Saky was hit last Tuesday, satellite images revealed significant damage, with at least eight warplanes destroyed. Although Russia said that incident was also accidental, there was little doubt the base had come under Ukrainian attack, because of the precise nature of the destruction. The UK ministry of defence said the blasts had "significantly degraded" the aviation capability of the Russian navy's Black Sea fleet. The latest blasts in northern Crimea are reminiscent of a string of recent attacks behind Russian lines in eastern Ukraine. Since June, Ukrainian forces have used US Himars multiple rocket launchers to hit as many as 50 arms stores, according to the defence minister. Bridges in the south have also been hit, jeopardising vital supply lines from Crimea to Kherson. However, Russian media have suggested that drones are more likely to have been used in Crimea than missiles. The Kommersant website reported that a Russian military airbase also came under attack further south in Crimea on Tuesday, at Hvardiiske near Simferopol, possibly from a small drone. The apparent ability of Ukraine's military to reach so far behind enemy lines is of significant embarrassment to the Russians. The explosions at Saky were visible from nearby beaches, while videos posted afterwards on social media showed streams of tourists leaving Crimea, across a bridge built across the Kerch Strait after the Russian annexation. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-62560041

  12. Crocodiles are lazy hunters, biologists say. For this reason, a non-native species of pig in Australia is easy prey for its voracious appetite. Wild pigs in Australia know they are at risk when crossing rivers. Beneath the surface, they are likely to encounter a dizzying attack from one of the country's largest predators: crocodiles. Only in northern Australia, documents the BBC, there is a record of about 300,000 crocodiles of different species. Distributed between the bodies of salt and fresh water, reptiles dominate much of the territory. Contrary to what might be believed, however, these reptiles are "lazy" hunters, as described by Mariana Campbell, a researcher at Charles Darwin University: "CROCODILES EAT WHATEVER IS EASIEST AND WILD BOARS ARE THE PERFECT SIZE," THE SPECIALIST, WHO STUDYING SALTWATER CROCODILE IN THE NORTH OF THE COUNTRY, EXPLAINS TO THE NEW YORK TIMES. β€œTHEY ARE PRETTY LAZY HUNTERS. IF YOU ARE A CROCODILE, WHAT IS EASIER? DO YOU STAY NEAR THE BANK AND WAIT A FEW HOURS FOR A PIG? OR ARE YOU GOING TO HUNT A SHARK, AN ANIMAL THAT CAN SWIM FIVE TIMES FASTER THAN YOU? Wild boars and other medium-sized mammals suffer the same fate. Weighing almost 70 kilos – as well as other of their favorite prey – they could be the largest meal of the day for an adult crocodile. Researchers couldn't be happier about this relationship: Until a few decades ago, feral pigs in Australia were the most destructive invasive species in forests. Without a natural predator to stop their progress through the territory, they wiped out plant species that other native species needed for food. Thus, too, they unbalanced these ecosystems by a chain reaction. Now, it seems that they have found a rival worthy of their destructive capacity. We suggest: An extremely rare humpback whale threatens lifeless off the coast of Australia Below the water "A pig going down to the water's edge is like ringing the dinner bell," says Frank Mazzotti, an expert on crocodiles and alligators at the University of Florida. Although it might seem insensitive at first glance, biologists are glad that wild pigs in Australia have a natural regulator. It should be taken into account that the species was artificially introduced in the eighteenth century. With the colonization of the territory, a wide diversity of animals were introduced to ecosystems that originally did not correspond to them. Some of them were wild boars and pigs, which adapted very well to the climatic conditions of the south. Perhaps too well, local conservationists think. More than anything, because the Australian forests were the perfect setting for these invasive species to reproduce freely. AFTER YEARS OF MAINTAINING CONTROL OF WILD PIGS (OR EVEN TRYING TO), IT SEEMS THAT NATURE IS PUTTING A STOPP ON THEM. NYT ENVIRONMENT REPORTER ANTHONY HAM DESCRIBES THE PHENOMENON AS REWRITING "THE COMPLICATED STORY OF WHAT HAPPENS WHEN NON-Native SPECIES TAKE OVER AN ECOSYSTEM." In parallel, with this new feast near the rivers, the world's largest crocodiles are recovering after being on the brink of extinction. Once hunted for sport, today they are protected by Australia's environmental lawβ€”and they have a broader menu to fill their stomachs. https://www.ngenespanol.com/animales/los-cerdos-en-australia-promueven-la-conservacion-de-cocodrilos-nativos/

  14. Deputy President William Ruto has been declared the winner of Kenya's presidential election amid dramatic scenes. He narrowly beat his rival, Raila Odinga, taking 50.5% of the vote, according to the official results. The announcement was delayed amid scuffles and allegations of vote-rigging by Mr Odinga's campaign. Four of the seven members of the electoral commission refused to endorse the result, saying it was "opaque". "We cannot take ownership of the result that is going to be announced because of the opaque nature of this last phase of the general election," said Juliana Cherera, the vice-chairperson of Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC). "We are going to give a comprehensive statement... and again we urge Kenyans to keep calm," she added. Mr Odinga's party agent earlier alleged that there were "irregularities" and "mismanagement" in the election. This was the first time Mr Ruto, 55, had run for president. He has served as deputy president for 10 years, but fell out with President Uhuru Kenyatta, who backed Mr Odinga to succeed him. The 77-year-old former prime minister, who got 48.8% of the vote, was running for president for the fifth time. Electoral commission chairman Wafula Chebukati said he had done his duty despite receiving threats. "We have walked the journey of ensuring that Kenyans get a free, fair and credible election. It has not been an easy journey - right now two of my commissioners and the CEO are injured," he said. In his speech, President-elect Ruto thanked the electoral commission for overseeing the election. "It is a wonderful evening… all sovereign power belongs to the people of Kenya," Mr Ruto said, calling Mr Chebukati a "hero" and dismissing the other commissioners' dissent of his win as "a side show". Mr Ruto said he wanted to be a president of all, and for the country to focus on the future. "To those who have done many things against us, I want to tell them there's nothing to fear. There will be no vengeance. We do not have the luxury to look back," he added. Celebrations have broken out in several parts of the country, including in Mr Ruto's strongholds of the Rift Valley, and that of his deputy Rigathi Gachagua, in the Central region. Supporters of Mr Odinga have staged protests in the western city of Kisumu and some parts of Nairobi. But generally there's a sense of relief that the result has finally been declared because the country had ground into a halt since election day on 9 August, economic activities had stalled and schools remain closed. Kenya's history of disputed elections in the past have led to violence or the whole process election being cancelled. Following the 2007 vote, at least 1,200 people were killed and 600,000 fled their homes following claims of a stolen election. Hustler vs dynasty In a country fond of political metaphors, Mr Ruto's stunning victory is akin to his party's modest symbol, the wheelbarrow, running a seven-tonne tractor off the road. Mr Odinga had the backing of the state machinery. Several opinion polls, which Mr Ruto had dismissed as fake, predicted his rival would win. As the deputy president for the last 10 years he was, by default, an establishment candidate but he ran as an outsider, framing the election as between "hustlers" - poor Kenyans - and "dynasties" - influential families like the Kenyattas and Odingas who have been big players in the country's politics since independence. "I may be the son of a nobody but I promise to make Kenya the country of everybody," he said in his pitch to voters. His political stock rose when he opposed an unpo[CENSORED]r and costly year-long push by Mr Kenyatta and Mr Odinga to change the constitution at a time many Kenyans were suffering, including losing jobs, following the protracted impact of the Covid-19 pandemic. The Supreme Court eventually ruled the move unconstitutional, buoying Mr Ruto's campaign. He also framed the election as a time for generational change, selling his message using pithy and relatable slogans, which lent him credibility and appeal across several communities. Mr Ruto's win is rightly the focus of Kenya's 2022 election, but equal attention should be given to the electoral commission which came into this poll with a terrible track record, but its decision to post results from the more than 46,000 polling stations on its website - accessible to anyone who wanted to do their own tally - allowed the media and the public to be part of the process. The leaders of Zimbabwe, Ethiopia and Somalia have congratulated Mr Ruto. Analysts believe that Mr Odinga is likely to challenge the result. The Kenyan Supreme Court annulled the last election - it might have to make another big decision in a few weeks. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-62554210
