https://www.bbc.com/news/health-59448438 In the past week a heavily mutated Covid variant has been identified, rapidly labelled a "variant of concern" by the World Health Organization. It is named Omicron and been detected in countries including the UK. It is a rapidly evolving situation. Omicron's genetic profile has raised concerns, but there's a shortage of real-world data that means nobody has the complete picture of what it can do. It is unclear how big a threat it poses. Yet, it is at this early stage, in an absence of definitive facts and when there is a danger of both underreacting and overreacting, that the UK government has to act. It's like you or me deciding whether to marry someone after the first date. Only the stakes are much higher. What we know is Omicron has mutations that theoretically help it to spread more quickly and there is mounting evidence of that happening in South Africa. It also has mutations that theoretically make vaccines less effective and the World Health Organization says there is a higher risk of reinfection than with other variants. But we don't know how transmissible it is. We don't know whether it is milder or more severe. We don't know what will really happen when it comes up against our significant wall of immunity built up through vaccines, boosters and high levels of Covid this autumn. How worrying is the new Covid variant? Covid variants: Do we need new vaccines yet? How are England's Covid rules changing because of Omicron? The government's response is to test everyone coming in to the UK, isolate all Omicron contacts, ramp up boosting and bring back compulsory face masks in some public places. Let's be clear - that will not stop more Omicron cases arriving or circulating. It's already arrived. If a virus is good at spreading then eventually it will slip through. And it has the potential to spread here too. Cases of Covid have been climbing except for a lull over the October half term. They are averaging at more than 40,000 a day and the R number is just above the crucial threshold of one. If Omicron can combine faster transmission with some ability to evade immunity then it too could spread. All the measures can do is buy time, but for what? Science and boosters. There are important scientific questions that need answering and top of the list is what happens when Omicron meets high levels of immunity. The answer, for better or worse, will dictate what happens next. The vaccines that have been used in the UK train the body to attack the spike protein on the virus - specifically the version of spike from the original variant from Wuhan in China. Our immune system learns to attack several parts of that spike. The antibodies in our blood are like a pit crew descending on a Formula 1 car - each going to their target area. But the mutations in Omicron are like changing some parts of the car to bamboozle the mechanics and make their job harder. Any dent to immunity is most likely to affect the odds of you catching Covid. What we've seen from the phenomenon of waning immunity is that protection against severe disease and death is more resilient. It will take time to know for sure. It might sound odd, but booster doses could limit any impact. In theory you can compensate for a less efficient immune defence by simply throwing more antibodies and T-cells at the problem, even if they are imperfect. More than 17 million people have already had a third dose and the government wants to ramp up boosting. Other countries have cut the gap between the second and third dose from six months to five and we should hear from the government's vaccine advisers soon. Pharmaceutical companies say they could update vaccines to match the Omicron variant in around 100 days if they were needed. It is worth noting we do have new weapons in our armoury in the form of anti-viral drugs. Paxlovid and molnupiravir both target the inner workings of the virus and experts have told me there is no suggestion their effectiveness would be knocked by the mutations seen so far. There are already cries that the government is both over-reacting and not going far enough. The problem for all of us is we'll only know the right answer with hindsight.

https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-59448398 Home Secretary Priti Patel has warned that failure by European politicians to co-operate on the continent's migrant crisis will lead to "even worse scenes" in the English Channel this winter. France is due to host German, Belgian and Dutch ministers and European Commission officials for talks. Ms Patel was disinvited from the summit after a row between Boris Johnson and French President Emmanuel Macron. But she vowed to "continue to push" for improvement to tackle the crisis. On Friday Prime Minister Boris Johnson publicly shared a letter he had sent to the French president on how to deal with the current situation. In it he set out five steps - joint patrols of the Channel, better use of technology such as sensors and radar, maritime patrols in each other's waters, stronger co-operation by intelligence services and negotiation on a policy of returning migrants who reach the UK to France This letter angered Mr Macron and according to the French government it demonstrated "double talk" from the UK. This resentment from Paris led to the home secretary's invitation being revoked. However, the UK government said that, even if the home secretary does not attend Sunday's meeting in Calais, British officials will be there. In light of the Franco-British tensions, Ms Patel said: "The UK cannot tackle this issue alone, and across Europe we all need to step up, take responsibility, and work together in a time of crisis." She added: "We will not shy away from the challenge we face, and next week I will continue to push for greater co-operation with European partners because a failure to do so could result in even worse scenes in the freezing water during the coming winter months." Ms Patel said the conversations she had on Thursday with her French counterpart, Gerald Darmanin, were "constructive". Channel deaths: What do we know so far? Why do migrants leave France for the UK? Highest UK asylum claims since 2004 On Wednesday, 27 people drowned as they headed for the UK from France. Their boat sank in the Channel. The International Organization for Migrations said it was the biggest single loss of life in the Channel since it began collecting data in 2014. Their deaths have raised questions about why so many people are attempting the journey despite the dangerous conditions. For several years, people smugglers have sent people to the UK in lorries. Although this route is safer than small boats, there have also been tragedies, including the 39 Vietnamese people found dead in a refrigerated lorry in 2019. However, the security at the Port of Calais in France - where UK border controls operate - has been tightened. This has meant that more attempts are being made to send people by boat, according to Tony Smith, former director general of UK Border Force. So far this year, the number of people crossing the channel in small boats has far exceeded previous years. Asylum claims to UK are at their highest since 2004, according to official estimates. However, other countries in Europe are also processing a high amount of asylum applications. Many people fleeing conflict zones already choose to make an asylum claim in the first country they arrive in - such as Greece, Turkey or Italy - and only a minority choose to travel on to the UK. Last year, Germany had the highest number of asylum applicants in the EU (122,015 applicants), while France had 93,475 applicants. In the same period the UK received the fifth largest number of applicants (36,041) when compared with countries in the EU (around 7% of the total). This represents the 17th largest intake when measured per head of po[CENSORED]tion, according to UN Refugee Agency.

The holiday shopping season is fully underway, and HP keeps its sales momentum going with great Cyber Monday savings on its top products. Whether you're looking for a new monitor, gaming laptop, or a PC that can handle heavy business workloads, HP has some deals slated for the entire Cyber Monday week. Get up to 53 percent off HP Small Form Factor PCs HP's ProDesk line are small form factor PCs great for everyday use. Each unit measures just 6.97 x 6.89 x 1.34 inches, taking up so little space you'll hardly notice it's there. You can even mount it to the back of your HP monitor, so it's completely out of sight. Don't let their small size fool you, though. The ProDesk line has configurations for just about any need. The ProDesk 400 G6 is an entry-level model with a 3GHz (3.8Ghz boosted) Intel Core i3-10100T processor with integrated UHD graphics. It also includes 8GB RAM and a relatively small 128GB SSD. Normally this SSF PC would run you $1,219, but HP has it marked down to $573 all week long. That's a 53-percent discount. If you need more horsepower than that, you could upgrade to the ProDesk 600 G6 or EliteDesk 800 G6. These SSF PCs use the same chassis as the ProDesk 400 but have a bit more to offer. The 600 bumps the processor up to a Core i5-10500T with the same 8GB of DDR4-2666. It also straps in a 256GB M.2 SSD. The EliteDesk packs an Intel Core i7-10700T CPU with the same UHD iGPU. While it has the same amount of RAM as the other two models, it's slightly faster DDR4-2933 MHz. It also has the same 256GB M.2 SSD as the ProDesk 600 G6.

A research team from the Interactive and Robotic Systems Laboratory at the Universitat Jaume I in Castelló has developed software that allows underwater robots with mani[CENSORED]tion capabilities to be controlled remotely in a more efficient way, as it offers a computer graphic interface and prior realistic simulation. The new technology amends, in the context of underwater scenarios, the lack of simulation systems and realistic 3D interfaces that enable remote control of tasks in autonomous and teleoperated mobile mani[CENSORED]tor robots. The use of robots in hazardous scenarios is indispensable, especially in situations caused by accidents, fire, smoke, radiation or deep water, which are almost impossible to access in person. The new software enriches the reality received from the robot located in the hazardous environment and unifies it with 3D information extracted by artificial intelligence techniques. This results in a mixed reality that is very useful for users. The system makes it possible to represent the state of the robots in the 3D environment by obtaining real data regarding the position of the vehicle and the mani[CENSORED]tor arm, as well as the information received from cameras and sensors. The user interface incorporates a realistic simulation system to experiment with robot functions and simulated telemetry before interacting with the real systems. This allows for greater efficiency in the tasks performed by the robot, ensuring people's safety in such situations. The new software makes it possible to achieve underwater robots capable of mani[CENSORED]ting, obeying the orders of the human operator and simulating the effects of robotic actions before they occur; at the same time, it enriches the information offered to the user, favors the supervision of the task and improves the safety of the interventions. One of its advantages is that it offers greater precision in the mani[CENSORED]tion and control of robots in adverse or dangerous scenarios. The main sectors that can benefit from this new technology are those linked to cooperative robotics (e.g. industry 4.0), underwater, radioactive or hazardous environments for human health due to fire and smoke, as well as security and telecommunications research. The research team is seeking specific agreements and subsequent licensing agreements with companies for the development and adaptation of the technology to specific applications. The development of this user interface has been carried out during the execution of the TWINBOT project and has been validated in real conditions (with two G500 vehicles) at the Centre for Research in Robotics and Underwater Technologies of the Universitat Jaume I of Castelló (CIRTESU). The software has also been improved and adapted to industrial and hospital environments during the first year of the European project H2020-El-Peacetolero.

Elon Musk has wished luck to NASA's planetary defence mission DART in his typical cryptic style. The mission, launched on Wednesday, is set to give a non-threatening asteroid a small nudge to see whether it can change its direction. But the SpaceX and Tesla CEO, known to find fun in most serious situations, said he wanted the mission to avenge the devastation an asteroid caused on Earth that led to the extinction of dinosaurs which roamed this planet some 650 million years ago. “Avenge the dinosaurs,” Musk tweeted, referring to the extinction event which took place millions of years ago when an asteroid crashed into Earth eliminating the dinosaur species. Musk's reaction came on a tweet by a NASA handle on the launch of the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission. “Asteroids have been hitting the Earth for billions of years. Now, we begin to make it stop. NASA's planetary defense test mission – the DART mission – has lifted off and is now on a journey to impact an asteroid in the fall of 2022,” NASA Asteroid Watch had tweeted. The DART mission launched aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from a base in California. Its mission is to hit an asteroid to test the technology for defending Earth against any potential incoming asteroid or comet hazards. The asteroid, a moonlet named Dimorphos, is approximately 530 feet in diameter and currently not a threat to Earth. But it belongs to a class of bodies known as Near-Earth Objects. The mission's objective is to only slightly change the asteroid's motion in a way that can be accurately measured using ground-based telescopes.

In brief: GPU shipments reached 101 million units in the third quarter of 2021 according to the latest report from Jon Peddie Research. That’s an increase of 12 percent year over year but a significant 18.2 percent decline compared to the second quarter. Looking at each of the three biggest manufacturers reveals that AMD’s shipments were down by 11.4 percent in the third quarter. Nvidia’s shipments, meanwhile, increased eight percent while Intel saw its shipments decline by 25.6 percent. The publication said the third quarter used to be the strongest relative to Q2, but the pandemic and recession have scrambled seasonality. In fact, the third quarter saw the biggest drop ever from the previous quarter and was way below the 10-year average. The situation looked eerily similar in the CPU sector. JPR found that the overall PC CPU market increased 9.2 percent year over year but dipped 23.1 percent compared to last quarter. The tablet market also saw shipments decline 6.9 percent quarter over quarter. JPR President Jon Peddie said Covid continues to unbalance the fragile supply chain that relied too heavily upon a just-in-time strategy. “We don’t expect to see a stabilized supply chain until the end of 2022. In the meantime, there will be some surprises,” he added. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang just last week said he expects demand to far exceed supply through 2022. AMD chief Lisa Su back in September said she believes the chip shortage could ease in the second half of 2022 while Intel boss Pat Gelsinger sees shortages running into 2023.

In the wake of Facebook rebranding as Meta, reflecting its focus on the "metaverse," Microsoft has now announced it, too, will launch into this space. Meta has proposed that the metaverse will eventually allow us to engage across education, work and social contexts, while Microsoft looks to be focusing specifically on the realm of the virtual office for now. But what actually is the metaverse and to what extent should we believe that the vision being presented to us is really going to be central to our daily lives? The idea itself isn't new. Science fiction author Neal Stephenson coined the term "metaverse" in his 1992 cyberpunk novel Snow Crash, presenting a 3D virtual world in which people, represented as avatars, could interact with each other and artificially intelligent agents. As with any big vision of a future that doesn't yet exist, many people have tried to stamp their own definitions on the metaverse. If the idea is new to you, it may help to understand some of the properties you can expect from a metaverse. 1. A virtual world: this is, in my opinion, the most important characteristic of a metaverse. You could explore it using a computer, gaming console, mobile, wearable technology or other device, experiencing 3D graphics and sound along the way. The idea is that this makes you feel more present in the metaverse, and presumably less present in the everyday world (where your body stubbornly remains). 2. Virtual reality. You need a virtual reality headset for this. The idea here is that you become immersed in the virtual world, so you feel even more present—at least until you bump into something that remains in the everyday world, like the coffee table. 3. Other people. The metaverse is social. There are lots of other people there, represented as avatars. Some of these avatars might be bots, virtual agents and manifestations of artificial intelligence. You can hang out with the other people or even do things together. The social aspect is likely to be central in Facebook's metaverse given its history as a social network. Metaverse fans and some researchers believe communication may be more natural than with video conferencing because, for example, you can use gaze to show who you are addressing (your avatar can turn its head to look at another person). Your avatar could also walk over and sit next to someone else's avatar to start a conversation. 4. Persistence. This means the virtual world is available whenever you want to visit it. You can change it by adding new virtual buildings or other objects and importantly, the changes remain in place next time you visit. You might be able to take up residence and own a bit of it. The metaverse will rely on your user-generated content—your digital creations and personal stories—in the same way social media does today. 5. Connection to the real world. In some visions of the metaverse, the virtual stuff in the virtual world actually represents real stuff in the real world. For example, you might fly a virtual drone in the metaverse to steer an actual drone in the real world. People talk about the real and virtual as being "digital twins". What can I do in a metaverse, and how soon? Different corporations will probably have their own visions or even local versions of the metaverse but, like the internet, they will all be connected, so you can move from one to the other. It's likely that some things are going to be more immediately appealing and practical than others. Playing games would seem to be a reasonable leap, as many gamers already enjoy online gaming, and some games, to a degree, have already entered the metaverse (think back to the characteristics above). The idea of being able to socialize or meet with others, and feel like you're really there with them in person, is also appealing—particularly in today's pandemic age. We don't have a particularly clear idea of Meta's metaverse offerings yet. In announcing the rebranding, chief executive Mark Zuckerberg mentioned different possibilities. You might be able to appear in a real meeting as a hologram, or play chess with someone across the world on a virtual chessboard superimposed on the real world. Facebook's vision of the metaverse is as being our future interface to the internet. But whether we will one day access all internet services through 3D virtual worlds and virtual reality headsets remains to be seen. Headsets still appear to be a somewhat niche technology in spite of many large corporations' attempts to bring them to market in recent years, including Facebook with their purchase of Oculus. I suspect Facebook will need to be in this for the long haul and that their vision of the metaverse is still many years off becoming a (virtual) reality. A final observation Stephenson's original vision of the metaverse was very exciting, but also full of possibilities for both online and real world harms, from addiction, to criminality, to the erosion of democratic institutions. Interestingly, Stephenson's metaverse was mostly owned by big corporations, with governments relegated to being largely insignificant paper-shuffling outposts. Given the current tensions between big tech and governments around the world over privacy, freedom of speech and online harms, we should seriously consider what kind of metaverse we want to create, and who gets to create, own and regulate it.

We first caught wind of Warhammer 40K: Chaos Gate – Daemonhunters during the Warhammer Skulls event this summer, and now we’ve finally got a proper look at the XCOM-style strategy game itself – specifically, the forces of Chaos you’ll be up against as the secretive Grey Knights chapter of the Space Marines. A new video dev diary reveals that it’s good old Nurgle who’s popped his boil-covered head up again, this time in the Tyrtaeus sector. Nurgle’s spaceborne plague, the Bloom, has appeared in the system, and over the course of the game, its influence will spread to the planets there. It’s your job, as the Grey Knights, to fight back against its corrupting influence, and that means taking on all the pestilence, mutation, and corruption that’s spreading across each world. Nurgle has some pretty intimidating foot soldiers at his bilious command, including the Death Guard – a traitor legion of Space Marines who have accepted Nurgle’s ‘gifts’ and become both immune to all pain and injury and incredibly stinky in the process. Along with Nurgle’s other minions, the Death Guard carry corrupted seeds that spread the plague to new worlds. The developers at Frontier Foundry and Complex Games also provide a peek at your primary antagonist in Chaos Gate – Daemonhunters. It looks to be Mortarion, a Daemon Primarch of Nurgle, who flies into battle on a pair of rotting, leathery wings swinging a terrifying warp-empowered scythe. He’s got an extensive entry on the Warhammer 40K fandom site, as well as one of the coolest-looking miniatures I’ve ever seen – and the peek we get of him in the video above looks like it’s sticking closely to the original Games Workshop design. It looks as though Daemonhunters will feature a highly dynamic campaign, with enemies and challenges changing depending on which of Nurgle’s plagues have infected a planet, and for how long it’s been active. That means you’ll need to choose between swift interdictory action and beefing your troops up for tougher combat challenges: upgrade your ship to respond quickly, or upgrade your soldiers to be able to withstand more punishment and dish out more pain. Warhammer 40K: Chaos Gate – Daemonhunters is due for release next year, and it’ll be available on both Steam and the Epic Games Store.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-59400539 Sweden's first ever female prime minister has resigned just hours after she was appointed. Magdalena Andersson, was announced as leader on Wednesday but resigned after her coalition partner quit the government and her budget failed to pass. Instead, parliament voted for a budget drawn up by the opposition which includes the anti-immigrant far right. "I have told the speaker that I wish to resign," Ms Andersson told reporters. Her coalition partner, the Green Party said it could not accept a budget "drafted for the first time with the far-right". Ms Andersson said that she hoped to try to become prime minister again as a single party government leader. "There is a constitutional practice that a coalition government should resign when one party quits," the Social Democrat said on Wednesday. "I don't want to lead a government whose legitimacy will be questioned. The speaker of parliament said he would contact party leaders on the next move. Ms Andersson was elected as prime minister earlier on Wednesday because under Swedish law, she only needed a majority of MPs not to vote against her. A hundred years after Swedish women were given the vote, the 54-year-old Social Democrat leader was given a standing ovation by sections of the parliament, or Riksdag. Her election at the head of a minority government followed an 11th-hour deal with the opposition Left party, in exchange for higher pensions for many Swedes. She also secured the support of coalition partner the Greens. Of the 349 members of the Riksdag, 174 voted against her. But on top of the 117 MPs who backed Ms Andersson, a further 57 abstained, giving her victory by a single vote. A former junior swimming champion from the university city of Uppsala, she began her political career in 1996 as political adviser to then-Prime Minister Goran Persson. She has spent the past seven years as finance minister. Before MPs backed Magdalena Andersson, Sweden was the only Nordic state never to have a woman as PM. Becoming the first woman prime minister in Swedish history should have been cause for a night of celebration for Magdalena Andersson, yet the sun had barely set when she handed in her notice. The complexities of Swedish politics mean we can't assume we've seen the last of her, though. If there's another prime ministerial vote, Ms Andersson will probably get voted in again. This is because the Green Party has promised to support her, despite quitting as a formal coalition partner. But she'd end up in a vulnerable position at the helm of a fragile minority government, and would still have to stick to the right-wing budget already voted on by parliament. What all this political chaos has underlined is just how divided Swedish politics is right now. We'll have to wait and see whether voters break the deadlock with a significant shift to the right or the left at next year's elections.
