Pep Guardiola says it would be a "huge mistake" for Manchester City to look for "revenge" against Real Madrid in their Champions League semi-final. City led 5-3 on aggregate in the 90th minute of last year's semi-final second leg, but Madrid remarkably fought back. City boss Guardiola urged his team to use the rematch to prove they can beat the holders and eventually land Europe's biggest club prize. "We're not here for revenge, we're here for an opportunity," said Guardiola. "What happened, happened in the past. It would be a huge mistake to think about that. "The lesson we learn from last year is not revenge, it is learn about what happened, get a good result, perform well and give the opportunity to leave the tie open in Manchester." After a 4-3 victory in the home leg last season, City extended their lead in the Bernabeu when Riyad Mahrez hammered in a 73rd-minute strike. But two late goals from Madrid substitute Rodrygo dramatically sent the tie into extra time, with Karim Benzema completing an incredible turnaround for Carlo Ancelotti's side by scoring a 95th-minute penalty. "I'm not a big fan to talk about experiences as a positive or negative way," said Guardiola. "Of course we have the same managers and 80% same players on both sides, but these are completely different games. "We played exceptional at home, it could not have been better. In Madrid we played - not exceptional - but good. We did everything to reach the final but it is football." Guardiola confident City will land Champions League Little over a year since the 3-1 defeat, City have returned to Madrid for Tuesday's first leg of this season's semi-final. The Spanish side - who went on to beat Liverpool in last year's final - go to Manchester for the second leg on 17 May. "The difference this year is the second leg is at home. I'm not sure if it is an advantage or disadvantage but I think everything will be decided in Manchester," said Guardiola. City are aiming for a Treble of Champions League, Premier League and FA Cup, having moved clear of Arsenal in the domestic league and already booked their place against Manchester United in the Wembley final on 3 June. Madrid look almost certain to miss out on the Spanish La Liga title to Barcelona and, having won the Copa del Rey on Saturday, it means they can put most of their focus on trying to be crowned European champions for the sixth time in the past 10 seasons. Former Barcelona manager Guardiola conceded last year's exit in Madrid was "tough", but says City remain on track to achieve their biggest goal of winning the Champions League. "One day we will get it. We will get to the final and we will win it. We come here this season to do it," Guardiola, whose side lost to Chelsea in the 2021 final, said. "To win this competition you have to beat the best teams and Madrid is the best team in this competition in the past decade." City midfielder Rodri says his team have learned lessons from last year's defeat, although he contradicted his manager by saying the players have the "hunger of gaining revenge". "We did 180 minutes brilliant but it is not enough sometimes - you can lose the leg in five minutes," said the Spain international. "The last minutes in the last leg we didn't handle the right way and we have to learn from that. We have to kill them when we can." Ake misses training, Modric 'going to play' - team news City defender Nathan Ake was missing from the open section of his team's training session on Monday, leaving him a doubt for Tuesday's match. Ake, 28, has only recently returned after a hamstring injury and was substituted during the second half of Saturday's win against Leeds United. The Netherlands international has been outstanding at left-back for City since Joao Cancelo's loan move to Bayern Munich in January. Veteran midfielder Luka Modric is set to return to Real Madrid's starting line-up after fully recovering from an unspecified injury. The 37-year-old Croatia international, who won the Ballon d'Or in 2018, has recovered quicker than initially thought and came on as a late substitute in Saturday's Copa del Rey final victory against Osasuna. "He can play without problem," said Ancelotti. "He is going to play." 'Unstoppable' City not all about Haaland, Kroos laughs off Rooney comments City's bid for the Treble of the Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League - only achieved once before in English football, by Manchester United in 1998-99 - has been spearheaded by the goals of Erling Haaland. The 22-year-old Norway striker, signed from Borussia Dortmund for £51m last summer, has scored 51 goals in 46 games this season, including 12 in eight Champions League matches. "Obviously Haaland is a very dangerous player. He's showing impressive qualities, above all in goalscoring. He's a threat," Ancelotti said. "Just talking about Haaland means not talking about a complete team that plays good football, defends well, attacks, that has ideas. "We're not setting up for a game to stop Haaland, but to stop a team that seems unstoppable, but I think we can have chances to have an equal game, one that we can win." Real Madrid midfielder Toni Kroos referenced the extraordinary comeback when he laughed off former England striker Wayne Rooney's recent suggestion City would "blow away" the Spanish side in this year's tie. "It was the same a year ago, no? That Madrid were out, and we did it," Kroos said. "I remember words from last year, not Rooney's - who is a guy I like a lot, apart from what he said - but it doesn't affect us. "It doesn't motivate us more either, because it's impossible to be more motivated than we are." https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/65527338

If you had to run for your life, with fighting all around, what would you take with you? Clothes, of course, important documents and perhaps a photograph, or another small sentimental keepsake, would be on many people's lists. But for South Sudanese Joseph Malith Matiang it was a bright red guitar in a bulky black case. The 22-year-old recently fled the violence in Sudan's capital, Khartoum, to return to his country with his family after a decade. He is now in a temporary camp in the South Sudanese town of Renk, 45km (28 miles) from the border. A musical instrument can symbolise hope amid destruction: the idea that human creativity can rise above human cruelty. But for musician and band member Matiang it was more practical than sentimental in the hectic moments before finally leaving their home. "I picked it up because it was very close to me [when I was leaving], other things were far from me. I left the keyboard behind because it was very heavy," he says. Surprisingly, Matiang, a singer, cannot play the guitar himself, but he bought it for 25,000 Sudanese pounds ($41; £33) as an investment for his band Kuenyipuoua, meaning "to think in your heart" in the Dinka language. It is a troupe of 37 singers, guitarists, keyboard players and drummers. The members made a little bit of money entertaining others in Khartoum's large South Sudanese community. They are all young men who, like Matiang, fled north after civil war broke out in South Sudan in 2013 and again in 2016. Most of the band are now separated by conflict and only seven that they know of have made it back to South Sudan. The journey from Khartoum to Renk that usually takes six hours on a paved road took several days for Matiang and his family as they crossed check-point after check-point. Armed men use the stops to look for enemy militia, but also take the opportunity to loot belongings "I gave the guitar to my mother because they do not question the elderly. Everything else they have taken. No-one was asking about the guitar," Matiang says, explaining how it survived the journey when other things did not. He is talking to me in a jam-packed informal camp that has been set up in an abandoned university in Renk. Thousands of South Sudanese have fled Khartoum in the last three weeks. At first sight it is a scene that is difficult to take in. Families have put up hundreds of makeshift tents made up of wooden poles and African-print clothes. Mothers and children are sat under them sheltering from the burning sun, protected from the bone-dry earth by mats. In the evening small fires burn as some boil tea or cook fish, vegetables and anything else they have been able to gather. Others are slouched over suitcases and piles of belongings exhausted from the journey. Amid this I spot Matiang - dressed in a black and gold shirt and blue cut-out jeans, with a guitar case strapped to his back. After he shows me what is inside, bandmate, 34-year-old Bol Yel Ring, offers to play. A crowd quickly gathers as the slim, tall young man begins to strum. After a long, lilting guitar intro, another band member starts singing. "We in South Sudan have so many [natural] resources, but we leave them and go abroad," he intones. "We left the women in South Sudan and we go out to work." https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-65525006

What is the best vacuum cleaner you should buy, and how do you choose the correct type? Increased focus on hygiene and cleanliness in recent times has made the idea of the vacuum cleaner attractive once again. Interestingly, the vacuum cleaner itself is a very different product today from what it once was; it's no longer the bulky, clunky, and loud device that needs to be plugged in and strung along on a long power cable. Instead, modern vacuum cleaners slot into two po[CENSORED]r form factors today - cord-free handheld devices, and automated robotic cleaners. Both of these form factors take the best of what technology has to offer right now, and combine it with the age-old idea of sucking dirt and impurities into a bin. If you're looking for a new vacuum cleaner right now, you've likely considered either of these two options. In this guide, we'll try to help you figure out which of the two form factors suits you best, based on your usage and requirements. We've also recommended some options from leading brands in the segment, including Dyson, Xiaomi, Realme, and more. Key differences between robot and handheld vacuum cleaners The biggest and most important difference between robot and handheld vacuum cleaners is the way they are used; the former operates autonomously, while the latter has to be controlled and used by your hands. This means that robot cleaners are considerably easier to operate and don't involve much effort from the user, while handheld vacuum cleaners offer better accuracy and a more comprehensive cleaning, guided by a real person rather than a computer algorithm. Naturally, robot cleaners are limited to cleaning just the floor because of their form factor and size, while handheld devices can be used on furniture, table and counter tops, upholstery, and walls. However, most robot vacuum cleaners can also mop the floor, often simultaneously with vacuuming, which isn't something you can do with a handheld vacuum cleaner. How is a robot vacuum cleaner superior to a handheld device? As mentioned, the biggest advantage of a robot vacuum cleaner is that it functions autonomously. Most devices are controlled using a smartphone app, and connect to your home's Wi-Fi to receive the control commands and relay data such as cleaning statistics, map and location, and the condition of consumable parts such as brushes and air filters. You can also control the device by pressing the buttons on the robot itself; either way, the robot will navigate itself around all accessible areas of your home and clean in a predetermined pattern without any further intervention from the user. Many robot vacuum cleaners also store home maps, and can then be set to clean specific rooms, in a specific order, or a particular spot. You can also set no-go zones, virtual wall barriers for areas you don't want it to access, and more. Once fully set up, the device only needs to be started up, and you can go back to doing whatever you were doing without needing to monitor the robot. Many such devices also have the ability to mop, with water reservoir tanks and mop cloth attachments that allow the devices to both vacuum and mop simultaneously. This means a robot cleaner can offer a comprehensive floor cleaning solution, with little manual effort on the part of the user. How is a handheld vacuum cleaner superior to a robot device? Handheld vacuum cleaners slot into two general categories - corded and cord-free. The former, as the name suggests, must be connected to a power outlet to run and usually has a long cable to allow you to move around a room freely regardless of where the vacuum cleaner is plugged in. The latter has a built-in battery that allows it to be used wirelessly, making it much more convenient and easy to use. The portability of a cord-free handheld vacuum cleaner means that you can access most areas of your home quickly and easily, including upholstery, counter-tops, and other furniture. You can also use it to clean areas that may not have easy access to an electrical socket nearby, such as a car, balcony, or terrace. Handheld vacuum cleaners also have considerably more peak suction power than similarly priced robot devices. This, along with the precision that comes with a human operating the device, makes for much quicker and thorough cleaning. While a robot vacuum cleaner may take around an hour to fully clean a normal-sized urban apartment, a handheld vacuum cleaner in skilled hands could do the same job in a fraction of the time. All vacuum cleaners, whether handheld or robotic, require periodic maintenance. With robot devices, there are more moving parts, including the sweeping brushes, the main vacuum brush, and the dustbin, all of which need to be regularly cleaned out for the device to continue functioning effectively. If the robot also has mopping functionality, you'll have to regularly top up the water reservoir and wash the mop cloth as well. https://www.gadgets360.com/smart-home/guide/robot-vs-handheld-cordless-vacuum-cleaners-comparison-2595536

Samsung's new foldables are well on their way to market. If rumors are to be believed, we can expect the Z Fold5 and Z Flip5 to debut alongside the Watch6 and Tab S9 sometime in July. One of the defining features of the upcoming Z Flip5 is definitely its new larger cover display. Various rumors and renders of the flip phone have already pictured the "folder shaped" cover display. Now we also have a couple of photos of a snap-on plastic case for the Z Flip5, which reaffirm the display's large size and odd shape. As far as we currently know, said cover display will measure 3.4 inches in diagonal and feature a resolution of 720 x 748 pixels. That leaves plenty of space for shortcuts and widgets, alongside a large clock, making the new display a lot more functional than the 1.9-inch unit on the Z Flip4. We still don't know a lot about the rest of the hardware on the Z Flip5. By all accounts, a new hinge design will ensure a much tighter closure with a minimal or even non-existent gap. Expectedly, the Z Flip5 will be running on the latest and greatest Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy mobile platform. As far as we currently know, the Z Flip5 will come with either 128GB, 256GB or 512GB of storage, with the 128GB model using a UFS 3.1 chip instead of UFS 4.0. This coincides with the current Z Flip4 storage tiers. We also believe that, like its predecessor, the Z Flip5 will have two 12MP cameras (main and ultrawide), but potentially ones using new sensors. The charging rate will likely remain at the familiar 25W. https://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_z_flip5_case_photos_confirm_the_new_large_cover_screen-news-58471.php

A recent breach in MSI's servers exposed Intel's BootGuard keys and has now put the security of various devices at risk. Major MSI Breach Affects The Security of Various Intel Devices Last month, a hacker group by the name of Money Message revealed that they had breached MSI's servers and stolen 1.5 TBs of data from the company's servers including source code amongst a list of various files that are important to the integrity of the company. The group asked MSI to pay $4.0 million in ransom to avert them from releasing the files to the public but MSI refused the payment. This action promoted the group to release the files on public servers this Thursday and based on an investigation done by BINARLY, the files include Intel BootGuard keys from MSI which not only affects MSI itself but also other major vendors including Intel, Lenovo, Supermicron & many others. The leaked files contain signing keys for a total of over 200 MSI products which can be used to access the firmware of these devices. These include a total of 57 devices whose Firmware Image Signing Keys have leaked out and 116 devices whose Intel BootGuard Keys have leaked. Why these keys are so important is because they are used to flag certain software that isn't verified as untrusted and "potentially malicious", says PCMAG. These keys can be used to tag malicious software with malware as trusted and handed over to the system which ends up compromising its security. “The signing keys for fw [firmware] image allow an attacker to craft malicious firmware updates and it can be delivered through normal BIOS update processes with MSI update tools,” Binarly CEO Alex Matrosov tells PCMag. MSI replied to its customers to avoid downloading UEFI/BIOS Firmware from any place except its own official websites where the proper version will be available without any fear of being compromised. Furthermore, since these files have been made public over the last couple of days, it is very likely a number of UEFI/BIOS firmware are already floating around various sections of the web with malicious code. According to Alex Matrosov, the CEO of BINARLY, the leak is confirmed to include Intel's private keys for OEM devices. Furthermore, the BootGuard may not be as effective on devices based on 11th-Gen Tiger Lake, 12th-Gen Alder Lake, and 13th-Gen Raptor Lake platforms. The leak also affects all OEM signing-based mechanisms within CSME (Converged Security and Management Engine) as stated by Alex. Intel and its partners who are affected by this leak have to to comment on how they plan on tackling this major security flaw that's occured through this breach. https://wccftech.com/msi-breach-leaks-intel-bootguard-oem-image-signing-keys-compromises-security-of-over-200-devices-major-vendors/

EA Sports UFC 4 added Ilia Topuria and Arman Tsarukyan to the roster today. The update arrives after adding Manon Fiorot, Irene Aldana and Amanda Ribas last month. It’s great to see the team continuing to add fighters to the game. Just in case you missed it, they also provided an update on future tuners as they shift their priority to UFC 5 or whatever they are going to call it UFC 4 will have reduced cadence for tunersets that update fighter ratings and more. In the past, these tunersets would happen after every UFC Pay Per View event, but now they will occur alongside each new fighter patch. As the development team continues to work on updating fighter ratings as well as adding new fighters themselves, you’ll see the same additions and updates to the game, just in a reduced cadence. Now, alongside each new fighter coming into UFC 4, you’ll see any appropriate tuners come in as well. https://www.operationsports.com/ea-sports-ufc-4-adds-ilia-topuria-and-arman-tsarukyan-to-roster/

Heavy Conservative local election losses represent a "clear rejection" of Rishi Sunak in his first electoral test as prime minister, Labour has said. Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer claimed his party was on course to win the next general election, expected next year. The Tories lost 48 councils and more than 1,000 councillors across England in Thursday's polls, exceeding their worst predictions. Many Tories were angry at the scale of the losses, with some blaming Mr Sunak. Labour says it is now the largest party in local government, surpassing the Tories for the first time since 2002. "The British public has sent a clear rejection of a prime minister who never had a mandate to begin with," a Labour spokesperson said. The Liberal Democrats had what their leader Sir Ed Davey said was their "best result in decades", taking control of 12 councils, mostly in Tory heartlands. The party gained 405 new councillors, compared with Labour's 536 gains. The Green Party gained 241 seats - their best-ever result in local elections - and gained its first majority on an English council, in Mid-Suffolk, although they were overtaken as the biggest party by Labour in Brighton and Hove. See the full local election results in England Sir John Curtice: What election results mean for the parties Lib Dem gains in traditionally Tory areas Mr Sunak admitted the results were "disappointing", but said he did not detect "a massive groundswell of movement towards the Labour Party or excitement for its agenda". Sir Keir claimed the "fantastic" results showed his party was well placed to oust the Tories from government in a general election, expected next year. "Make no mistake, we are on course for a Labour majority at the next general election," he told cheering activists in Medway in Kent, one of the councils his party has wrested from the Tories. 'Little short of calamitous' Labour won control of councils in areas that will be crucial battlegrounds in the general election, including Medway, Swindon, Plymouth, Stoke-on-Trent, and East Staffordshire. The BBC's projected national vote share put Labour on 35%, the Tories on 26% and the Lib Dems on 20%. Labour's projected nine-point lead represents its largest over the Conservatives on this measure since the party lost power in 2010. Sir John Curtice, the polling expert, said this year's results were "only a little short of calamitous for the Conservatives". But the BBC's political editor, Chris Mason, said the results suggested it would be hard for either the Conservatives or Labour to be confident of winning a majority at the next general election. Labour shadow cabinet member Peter Kyle denied the results, which saw the Lib Dems gain nearly as many new councillors as Labour, was an anti-government, rather than a pro-Labour, vote. He told BBC Radio 4's Today programme the results showed Labour had won back support in "key places" and would win an outright majority at the general election, without needing to do deals with other parties. "In all of the areas that the Labour Party targeted, that we focused resources, that we really wanted to reconnect to voters, we did so." He added that Sir Keir Starmer had "led from the front" and Labour had run a "disciplined" campaign, which showed it was "moving towards government." Tory recriminations In Swindon, where Labour took control of the borough council for the first time in 20 years, ousted Tory council leader David Renard blamed "the cost of living and the performance of the government in the last 12 months" for his party's woes locally. Mr Renard said although the prime minister had "started to stabilise things", for voters in Swindon "what had gone on before that was something that they didn't like". The Conservative mayor of the Tees Valley, Ben Houchen, who is up for election next year, said the poor Tory performance was a partly a result of "the turmoil and upheaval of the last 12 months". He said Labour had been "successful in making this a referendum on the government", adding "people don't feel like they can vote for us". Nigel Churchill, a former Tory councillor who lost his seat on Plymouth Council - another Labour target - said "I think we can safely say" the Conservatives will lose the next general election. "The general public do not trust them at the moment," he said. But Education Minister Robert Halfon said this year's local elections were always "going to be difficult" for his party. He said internal party divisions "didn't help", but claimed the losses were down to external factors, such as the cost-of-living crisis and problems in the NHS. "Every government during the mid-term, especially a government that has been in power for 13 years, always suffers losses in local elections," he said. Other Tory MPs told the BBC that apathy - Conservative voters staying at home - was also a big problem for the party. Key results at a glance: Labour has gained 536 councillors and 22 councils - including the key battlegrounds of Swindon, Plymouth, Medway and Stoke-on-Trent, where the party are hoping for success at the next general election The Conservatives lost 1,061 councillors and 48 councils, but won control of Torbay and Wyre Forest The Liberal Democrats have gained 12 councils and 405 councillors, including the former Conservative strongholds of Windsor and Maidenhead, and Stratford-on-Avon Almost 250 Green councillors were elected, and the party won its first-ever outright majority on a council in Mid Suffolk The seats up for grabs were mostly on district councils, responsible for services including bin collections, parks, public housing and planning applications. The rest of the elections were for a mixture of metropolitan and unitary councils - single local authorities that deal with all local services - and for four mayors. The elections were the first in England to see voter ID checks at polling stations. Some voters told the BBC they were turned away from polling stations, prompting critics to call for the ID rules to be dropped. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-65503082

Sharks are often called "living fossils," and for good reason: The first sharks appeared in the fossil record roughly 450 million years ago and have lived through all five mass extinctions, including the one that wiped out the nonavian dinosaurs. In addition to being long-lived as a group, individual sharks have long life spans. So just how long can sharks live, and what's the oldest shark on record? On the lower end of the longevity scale, the great hammerhead shark (Sphyrna mokarran) lives about 44 years, although one individual caught by a fisher in Florida was estimated to be as old as 50. The great white shark (Carcharodon carcharias) can live up to 70 years, according to a 2014 study in the journal PLOS One. But of all the shark species, one stands out for its mind-boggling longevity. "The Greenland shark is the longest-lived shark species by far," Brynn Devine, a marine biologist at the University of Windsor in Ontario and an expert in Greenland shark conservation, told Live Science. Related: The longest-living animals on Earth Greenland sharks (Somniosus microcephalus) scour the ocean floor in the North Atlantic and Arctic. These huge sharks, some the size of great whites, are truly remarkable. "Greenland sharks are not just the oldest sharks," Devine said, "but they are possibly the oldest animals with backbones, which is crazy to think about." In a 2016 study in the journal Science, researchers determined that the average age of a group of 28 Greenland sharks in their sample was 272 years old. The oldest in the group was estimated to be 392 years old, plus or minus about 120 years. That led to a widely held — but now debunked — misconception that the oldest shark was 512 years old.

But even at almost 400 years old, the Greenland shark identified in the study could have been traversing Earth's oceans around the same time the Mayflower was transporting the Pilgrims to the New World. John Fleng Steffensen(opens in new tab), professor of marine biology at the University of Copenhagen, was an author on the Science paper. "The age of the largest shark we have caught was between 272 and 512 years, and that was 'only' about 502 cm (16.4 feet) long. We believe Greenland sharks can be up to 550 cm (18 feet) long, and since they are growing slower the larger they are, a 550 cm long female may be maybe 100 years older." https://www.livescience.com/what-is-oldest-shark-llm.html

Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti says his players' focus is fully on Saturday's Copa del Rey final and not the crucial upcoming Champions League clash with Manchester City. The Spanish giants host City in their semi-final first leg next Tuesday. But they have the chance to win a trophy before then when they take on Osasuna in Seville. "We will go out there without thinking about what's happening the next day," Ancelotti, 63, said. "We will go out with all the energy in the world to win another title. The players are motivated." Cup competitions are crucial for Real Madrid given they are 14 points behind leaders Barcelona in La Liga. Ancelotti, who last won the Copa del Rey with Real Madrid in 2014, is out of contract at the end of the season and says he is treating Saturday's final as though it could be his last, although the Italian added that is his approach to every final. "Playing a final is always exciting, I always think before a final that, personally, it could be my last," he said. "I thought that in 2003, and it wasn't the last, and I think that today, it could be the last today. "You have to enjoy it, and I ask the players to enjoy it too because they are special games." Ancelotti said midfielder Luka Modric and defender David Alaba are both fit for the game and confirmed the latter would start on Saturday. Osasuna boss Jagoba Arrasate believes his side can upset Real Madrid to win their first major trophy. Ancelotti's team are trying to win the competition for the 20th time while Osasuna are in only their second Copa del Rey final. "We have to be brave and make Madrid uncomfortable," Arrasate, 45, said. "It's been a longer wait for us than for Madrid - we've had to wait 18 years for a final. "I think that for things to happen you have to visualise them, and I see David lifting the cup." https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/65500297

Representatives from Sudan's warring armies have arrived in Saudi Arabia for their first face-to-face negotiations. The "pre-negotiation talks" between the Sudanese army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) were due to start on Saturday in Jeddah. They are sponsored by the US and Saudi Arabia. Several ceasefires have broken down since the fighting began weeks ago. Both sides have said they will discuss a humanitarian truce but not an end to the conflict. On Saturday, Saudi Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan welcomed the representatives from both parties. He said he hoped the talks would "lead to the end of the conflict and the return of security and stability to the Republic of Sudan". Gen Mohamed Hamdan Daglo, who leads the RSF, said on Twitter that the group appreciated all efforts to establish a ceasefire and provide the Sudanese people with aid. He also insisted the RSF was committed to "the transition to a civilian-led government". Gen Daglo, better known as Hemedti, is engaged in a bitter power struggle with Sudan's army commander, Gen Abdel Fattah al-Burhan - the country's de facto president. Saturday's talks come amid reports of continuing clashes in the Sudanese capital, Khartoum. Hundreds of people have been killed and nearly 450,000 civilians displaced since the fighting began. Of that total, the International Organization for Migration says, more than 115,000 have sought refuge in neighbouring countries. A joint US-Saudi statement urged "both parties to take in consideration the interests of the Sudanese nation and its people and actively engage in the talks towards a ceasefire and end to the conflict". What is going on in Sudan? A simple guide The two generals fighting over Sudan's future Azza's story: Bittersweet ending for Sudan evacuees A spokesman for UN children's agency, James Elder, said the conflict's first 11 days alone had killed an estimated 190 children and wounded 1,700 - and those figures were just from health facilities in Khartoum and Darfur. "The reality is likely to be much worse," he said. The intensity of the fighting has prevented much-needed aid deliveries getting through. So far Gen Burhan and Hemedti, who led an Arab militia in the brutal Darfur conflict, have shown little readiness to reach a peace settlement. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-65506091

We also have a similar article for best romantic movies on Amazon Prime Video. The Age of Innocence (1993) Martin Scorsese displays restraint with this adaptation of Edith Wharton's 1920 novel of the same name, about the grandeur and hypocrisy of 1870s high society, that follows an attorney (Daniel Day-Lewis) who is engaged to fellow attorney and socialite (Winona Ryder), and then falls for her livelier cousin and heiress (Michelle Pfeiffer) who's separated from her husband. Barfi! (2012) Set in the 1970s amidst the hills of Darjeeling, writer-director Anurag Basu tells the tale of three people (Ranbir Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra, and Ileana D'Cruz) as they learn to love while battling the notions held by society. The film was praised for its heartwarming nature, but criticised for its narrative handling and forced prettiness, with one critic going so far to call it “facile and plastic”. Bombay (1995) Set during the 1992–93 Bombay riots, writer-director Mani Ratnam offers a look at the communal tensions that cause a strain on the relationship between a Muslim woman (Manisha Koirala) and a Hindu man (Arvind Swamy). The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2008) Born as an elderly man in a New Orleans nursing home, the titular man (Brad Pitt) ages in reverse in this fantasy drama from director David Fincher, with his love for the dancer Daisy (Cate Blanchett) the only thing that keeps him going through the unusual adventures that pepper his life. Dev.D (2009) Anurag Kashyap offers a modern-day reimagining of Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay's Bengali romance classic Devdas, in which a man (Abhay Deol), having broken up with his childhood sweetheart, finds refuge in alcohol and drugs, before falling for a prostitute (Kalki Koechlin). Dil Chahta Hai (2001) Farhan Akhtar's directorial debut about three inseparable childhood friends whose wildly different approach to relationships creates a strain on their friendship remains a cult favourite. Aamir Khan, Saif Ali Khan, and Preity Zinta star. Her (2013)⭐ A lonely man (Joaquin Phoenix) falls in love with an intelligent computer operating system (Scarlett Johansson), who enriches his life and learns from him, in Spike Jonze's masterpiece. Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (2010)⭐ A slacker musician (Michael Cera) must battle his newest girlfriend's (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) seven evil exes to woo her in this adaptation of the graphic novel. Edgar Wright directs. Sense and Sensibility (1995) Jane Austen's famous work is brought to life by director Ang Lee, about three sisters who are forced to seek financial security through marriage after the death of their wealthy father leaves them poor by the rules of inheritance. Sleepless in Seattle (1993) A grieving widower (Tom Hanks) and an unhappily-engaged journalist (Meg Ryan) are brought together by an eight-year-old, a best friend, and fate in this rom-com directed by Nora Ephron. The Souvenir (2019) A shy and sheltered film student (Honor Swinton Byrne) falls into an intense and toxic relationship with a charismatic and dubious older man (Tom Burke) in what is a semi-autobiographical retelling of writer-director Joanna Hogg's life. An unexpected sequel, The Souvenir Part II, is due in 2022. https://www.gadgets360.com/entertainment/guide/netflix-best-movies-romantic-india-2534996

Motorola's upcoming Razr 40 Ultra has been starring in a lot of leaks and rumors lately, most recently we've seen it in official-looking promo materials last week. Today, we get a leaked spec sheet to gawk at, and the chipset choice might not be to everyone's taste. That's because according to a new report, the folding phone will eschew the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC, and go for its predecessor, the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1, instead. That's obviously still a great high-end performer, it's just not the latest one - and presumably Samsung's upcoming Galaxy Z Flip5, due to launch in July and compete head-on with the Razr 40 Ultra, will sport the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. Moving on, the next Razr is said to come with a 120 Hz (or 144 Hz) 1080x2640 main AMOLED touchscreen, whereas the probably 3.5-inch outer screen will have 1056x1066 resolution to cover its squarish face. There will be up to 512GB of storage and up to 12GB of RAM, a dual-SIM variant, an eSIM variant, NFC on all models, and a fingerprint sensor of course. The main cameras are a 12 MP wide with the Sony IMX563 sensor and a 13 MP ultrawide with the SK Hynix Hi1336 sensor, while the inner screen gets a 32 MP selfie snapper with the OmniVision OV32B40 sensor. The device will allegedly be offered in black, blue, and "Barberry". According to a previous report, the Razr 40 Ultra will have a 3,640 mAh battery with support for 33W charging. It's expected to run Android 13 with Motorola's My UX on top. With so many leaks and rumors, hopefully the phone will become official sooner, rather than later. https://www.gsmarena.com/motorola_razr_40_ultra_specs_leak-news-58434.php

AMD's unreleased Radeon RX 7950 XTX, 7950 XT, 7800 XT, 7700 XT, 7600 XT, & 7500 XT RDNA 3 GPUs have shown up in a ROCm 5.6 pull request. Unreleased AMD Radeon RX 7950 XTX, 7950 XT, 7800 XT, 7700 XT, 7600 XT, 7500 XT RDNA 3 GPUs Spotted AMD has yet to launch or announce a new Radeon RX 7000 GPU based on the RDNA 3 graphics architecture besides the Radeon RX 7900 XTX & RX 7900 XT but it looks like a recent pull request made within Github has disclosed several announced GPUs as spotted by a member of the AMD subreddit. The list of the cards is seen below (Credits: u/cherryteastain): Radeon RX 7950 XTX RDNA3 gfx1100 (Navi 31) Radeon RX 7950 XT RDNA3 gfx1100 (Navi 31) Radeon RX 7900 XT| RDNA3 gfx1100 (Navi 31) Radeon RX 7900 XT RDNA3 gfx1100 (Navi 31) Radeon RX 7800 XT RDNA3 gfx1101 (Navi 32) Radeon RX 7700 XT RDNA3 gfx1102 (Navi 33) Radeon RX 7600 XT RDNA3 gfx1102 (Navi 33) Radeon RX 7500 XT RDNA3 gfx1102 (Navi 33) Radeon RX 7600M XT RDNA3 gfx1102 (Navi 33) Radeon RX 7600M RDNA3 gfx1102 (Navi 33) Radeon RX 7700S RDNA3 gfx1102 (Navi 33) Radeon RX 7600S RDNA3 gfx1102 (Navi 33) The AMD RDNA 3 GPU portfolio is based on three main chips, the Navi 31, Navi 32, and Navi 33. The Navi 31 GPU is designated as "GFX1100" and codenamed Plum Bonito, the Navi 32 GPUs are designated as "GFX1101" and codenamed Wheat Nas while the Nav 33 GPUs are designated as "GFX1102" and codenamed Hotpink Bonefish. There's also a GFX1103 design which is aimed at integrated IPs such as APUs.

Now these AMD Radeon RX 7000 RDNA 3 GPUs have been listed within the recent ROCm 5.6 pull and may just be placeholders but since they are also listed besides their RDNA 3 GFX IPs, we can guess what AMD is planning to do with the lineup. It looks like a possible high-end Radeon RX 7950 series refresh will reuse the Navi 31 core architecture while the Radeon RX 7800 XT will be the only Navi 32 chip on the block. This aligns with previous rumors. AMD has pointed out that they have the resources to develop a higher-end RDNA 3 graphics card that could compete with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 but didn't plan on making such a card due to price/power constraints. We can speculate that this vision will come to form with the RDNA 3 refresh as the RX 7950 XTX and 7950 XT though Navi 31 is already being offered in its peak core count so the only other updates we can expect from a possible refresh will be higher clocks, faster memory and more power, as we saw with the RX 6950 XT. Also, the Navi 33 chip will be powering the entire mainstream and entry-level RDNA 3 GPU lineup including the Radeon RX 7700 XT, RX 7600 XT, & RX 7500 XT graphics cards along with the mobile RX 7700 and RX 7600 series. It's weird that only one AMD Navi 32 GPU exists but it is also likely that AMD will position its Navi 32 chips as the flagship mobility offerings which might explain its limited nature on the desktop front though that could change when the actual cards are announced. The cards are also only listed in their "XT" variations whereas Non-XT models are also likely to appear sooner or later as was the case with the Radeon RX 6000 series. During its earnings call yesterday, AMD confirmed that it will launch new mainstream Radeon RX 7000 GPUs based on the RDNA 3 architecture within this quarter so it's likely that we are going to see some of these cards in action very soon. The company also released its ROCm 5.5 yesterday and the ROCm 5.6 pull seems to point out the groundwork being laid out for the newer version with even better RDNA 3 support.

Party leaders are making their final pitch to voters on the last day of campaigning for local elections across England. They are set to visit battleground areas before polls open on Thursday to elect around 8,000 councillors and four local mayors. The polls will decide who will run services in 230 local councils. But they also being closely watched as a key test of public opinion before the general election expected next year. Opposition parties have sought to attack the Conservatives' record on crime, as well as running key services such as the NHS. Campaigning, taking place against a backdrop of stubbornly high inflation, has also been dominated by the cost of living. Chris Mason: What's at stake in the local elections? Do Labour or Conservatives have higher council tax? Young councillors on why they need seat at the table Leaders from the main parties are all making campaign stops later, following the last session of Prime Minister's Questions before polls open. Rishi Sunak said he recognised that Thursday's local elections could prove "tough" for the Conservative Party. Speaking during a visit to Buckinghamshire, the prime minister said: "We are concentrating on delivering on people's priorities. "Nationally, I'm focused on my five priorities - that's halving inflation, growing the economy, reducing debt, cutting waiting lists and stopping the boats. "We're going to keep delivering for people. My priorities are the people's priorities." Target seats Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer said the country "desperately needs change, I think you can sense that in the air". Speaking to supporters in the Labour target of Medway, Kent, Sir Keir said: "There's one question that really stands out and that is people asking themselves after 13 years 'am I any better off since this mob started?"' Liberal Democrat leader Sir Ed Davey, who is targeting rural and suburban seats held by the Tories, will visit a string of target seats in southern England. The campaign has been dominated by exchanges on the issue of crime, with the parties trading statistics on the record of the Conservatives in tackling the issue in government since 2010. Environmental issues including sewage dumps in England's waterways, has also been pushed by opposition parties and has emerged as a key election battleground. The elections, mostly taking place in rural areas where the Conservatives still hold many councils, will decide council seats that were mostly last contested in May 2019. For Labour, which has a healthy lead over the Tories in opinion polls, the elections present a chance to demonstrate momentum ahead of the general election widely expected to take place next year. The Liberal Democrats will also be hoping to convert their success in a trio of by-elections last year into increased local representation, whilst the Greens are aiming to take outright control of an English council for the first time. The Conservatives will be hoping to limit losses and demonstrate that a narrowing of its poll deficit since Rishi Sunak took over from Liz Truss shows a possible path to victory for the next general election. Voter ID The elections will also be the first polls to take place since a new requirement to show ID at voting stations in Great Britain came into force. The government argues the rule is necessary to guard against voter fraud, but opposition parties say there is no evidence of this and accuse ministers of voter suppression. People without the required ID were able to get a free certificate instead. Official figures show about 4% of those without ID signed up to receive one. The figure does not include people who applied by post or in person. Others may have applied for a different form of valid ID. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-65467742
