  • In one night, SpaceX installed 29 engines on the rocket to take people to Mars

    In one night, SpaceX installed 29 engines on the rocket to take people to Mars

    SpaceX engineers put 29 Raptor engines on the space company’s most prominent rocket in a single night.

    With the recyclable rocket or the Tesla launched into space, SpaceX, which also demonstrates a memorable space performance for the layman, has a version of the Super Heavy launch vehicle with 29 Raptor engines.

    The 70-meter-high, 9-meter-diameter structure, after the modification, had twice the thrust of the Saturn V-powered Apollo 11 with which NASA astronauts set out for the moon.

    SpaceX is already planning to fly with this unit. A total of 33 Raptors will be seated in the final version.

    The rocket will soon be delivered to the launch station, where there will be plenty of tests waiting for it. These are likely to be done more carefully than usual by the team, as this is a more severe structure than ever before.

    The ArsTechnica points out the first test flight is permission from the US Federal Aviation Administration (Federal Aviation Administration, FAA) will need to SpaceX’s.

  • Google is working on a new software that will make switching from iPhone to Android much easier

    Google is working on a new software that will make switching from iPhone to Android much easier

    Google is already hard at work on Switch to Android, a tool that will assist those who are switching from iOS to Android.

    Google intends to make it easier for iPhone owners who wish to move to Android. The 9to5Google added a novelty to the latest version of the mobile operating system, implying that Google is working on an iPhone app that will make it simple to prepare for migration.

    [ads1]

    Google presently allows users to upload their contact list, calendar entries, and images to Google Drive and then download the data to their Android device with the same account after switching, according to the tab.

    The Switch to Android app, on the other hand, allows for a far more flexible transfer from one device to another. The following instructions for use were identified in the code, according to the report:

    • Step 1: Go to the App Store and download the Switch to Android app.
    • Step 2: Open the network settings
    • Step 3: Choose the correct network and input the relevant password.

    The app then functions as a kind of wifi hotspot. According to the description, the data mentioned above and SMS and programs can be transferred to an Android device. To do so, you’ll also need to enter your iTunes password.

    However, the GSMArena adds that I don’t know many details concerning application transmission, but I’m almost sure that purchased programs aren’t installed on my Android phone. The Play Store will have to be retaken.

  • High-consumption gaming PCs have been banned in 6 U.S. states

    High-consumption gaming PCs have been banned in 6 U.S. states

    Like a shock to the news, PC gamers were banned from roughly high-power gaming PCs in 6 U.S. states – California, Colorado, Oregon, Hawaii, Vermont, and Washington. This sounds shocking at first, but the story is more nuanced than that.

    Well, but what is it about? Around 2017, an energy law was drafted and is now coming into force. There is a so-called Expandability Score (also ES for simplicity), which calculates how much ES a given machine falls in based on its power consumption: a high score means good, a low score means terrible. If the machine range is above 690 ES, it meets expectations. But if the ES range is low, then either the configuration needs to be optimized. Otherwise, it is disabled.

    This is clear so far, but the legislation has its oddities. California gamers consumed a total of 4.1 terawatt-hours of electricity in 2016, which equates to $ 700 million, or $ 213 billion, an amount arguably brutal. Consoles accounted for 60 percent of this number yet were left entirely out of the new legislation. Consumption of desktops contributed 31 percent to this relentless amount.

    Interestingly, the legislation only affects the electricity consumption of private households, with server farms, development companies, and other workstations wholly excluded from the law, which is also strange because California is one of the international strongholds of IT, led by Silicone Valley. And the sharpest piquancy of the thing is that the legislation only applies to pre-assembled machines. If someone wants to build a PC, it could be a nuclear power plant, and the legislation is not affected.

    Dell Alienware machines are no longer available in the states below, and if someone wants to buy an Aurora R12 from Oregon, for example, their order will be canceled. The law was born for sustainability reasons but not thoroughly thought out.

  • TikTok would filter out trolls from live broadcasts

    TikTok would filter out trolls from live broadcasts

    In the future, TikTok will pay more attention to living video broadcasts, and videographers can receive their moderators.

    TikTok would like to see many more live broadcasts on the platform in the future and is willing to do so. The company has announced that several new tools will be introduced to make such content more and make the atmosphere much more pleasant.

    One such novelty is that TikTok will monitor posts in the future, and if it contains any harmful or harmful content, it will warn the person before posting. Of course, users can still click the Send button, but the company is confident that those who see the message will think about it.

    But life will also be easier for live broadcasters: in the future, when they start a stream, they can trust a particular user to moderate incoming comments, so they don’t have to worry about muting trolls.

    In addition, users can enter up to 200 keywords and phrases to automatically moderate the text they appear in. Last but not least, TikTok will show more live broadcasts in the user’s stream in the future based on their interests.

    The changes in the way live broadcasts are organized are not surprising, as according to TikTok, the number of streamers and viewers of such content has doubled in the past year.

  • In addition to movies and series, there may also be video games on Netflix

    In addition to movies and series, there may also be video games on Netflix

    The most popular streaming provider can paddle into new waters: industry rumors say they will be offering games.

    Anyone who launches Netflix in the coming months will be able to find not only movies and series on offer but also a variety of games – at least the Bloomberg news agency knows. The market-leading service provider is said to have been working on introducing the novelty for a long time.

    Netflix is ​​primarily dependent on the number of subscribers, and although the pandemic has increased the number of users, the growth is no longer as fast as it used to be. The player would try to improve on this, although there is no news about it yet, but how.

    In any case, Netflix is ​​working hard to implement the idea, but it is also unconfirmed, and filling new positions is an integral part of the plan. Former EA Mobile CEO Mike Verdut has already won for themselves.

    The novelty is said to be unveiled next year, and it looks like Netflix isn’t going to ask for extra money for it.

  • Facial recognition software tracks down politicians who mobilize at work

    Facial recognition software tracks down politicians who mobilize at work

    Belgian artist Dries Depoorter monitors YouTube broadcasts of government meetings with artificial intelligence to determine which compatriot is paying less attention to the forum.

    Anyone who has ever watched a parliamentary broadcast could see for sure that not all politicians are paying attention to their fellow Members. They usually read a newspaper or press their tablet on their cell phone. It is no different in the Belgian legislature, to which a Belgian artist has now drawn attention.

    Dries Depoorter uses artificial intelligence to watch YouTube broadcasts of Flemish government meetings. When the video starts, the software uses machine learning to monitor which politician is pressing his phone, and then a face recognition software also identifies the natives in question.

    Once identified, Depoorter will post the videos made on Twitter and Instagram, writes The Next Web.

    Although the project draws attention to a significant problem, not everyone likes the “wall of shame” created by the artist. Of course, you don’t know why a given politician is mobilizing because you may be looking at the screen just because of an emergency.

    Nonetheless, two years ago, the Belgian Prime Minister, Jan Jambon, fell while Andry Birds was on his device during a debate.

  • Windows 11 will have a black screen of death instead of blue

    Windows 11 will have a black screen of death instead of blue

    Even if the new op system encounters an error, it will definitely not load the familiar blue screen.

    Windows 11 is different from previous system versions in many ways, and one of the differences will be detected when it crashes: in these situations, a blue screen usually pops up, but in the new software release it will be black. (The name of this phenomenon does not change.)

    Black Screen of Death (BSOD) is the result of an amendment that defines the entire windows 11: Microsoft is making a fresher, more modern release, so this warning window has been revised.

    The blue death screen appeared against a red background in some previous Editions of Windows, so this won’t be the First Amendment.

  • Great Feature coming to Microsoft Edge

    Great Feature coming to Microsoft Edge

    A stable version of Edge also shows the feature, allowing you to send a link to a web page to another device instantly.

    In April, there were first reports that Microsoft’s Edge would get its own page-sharing feature, which had to wait until now: according to Windows Latest, a stable version of the program (version 91.0.864.54) and some users are already working.

    Page sharing is about a quick way for the user to browse on another device, such as laptops, Android phones, or iPhones. This feature is in an attempt to eliminate them. But without copying the link to the content, you’ll send it by email.

    According to Windows Latest, page sharing is possible with an extra button that you can find in your browser’s address bar. When you press this (or right-click the page), you will be automatically offered to forward the link to the connected device. One requirement for this feature is that edge is installed on your device and that you have the same Microsoft account that you use on your PC/laptop.

    However, the portal pointed out that page forwarding to mobile devices is currently only available in Canary editions, not in stable Edge, which everyone uses. This is presumably due to the gradual introduction. Just as the basic function doesn’t work for all users yet, it can change in a few days.

  • New update coming to Google search, Take it seriously!

    New update coming to Google search, Take it seriously!

    Google is testing a solution that reminds users that the search results list can include more than just trusted pages.

    A new feature could soon arrive in Google’s search engine to help users see less fake content in the future. According to Recode, the company is already testing a solution that alerts users if the search results result in suspicious or untrusted outcomes.

    The example below searched for news that a police helicopter had captured an unidentified flying object flying at 106 mph.

    When Google introduces the novelty remains to be seen. For now, the company is in the testing phase, but if the development works well, it will undoubtedly be widely available. At least in English, I’m sure.

    Innovation can be helpful, but it’s only half the solution. If Google knows that your results don’t just contain credible information, the best solution would be to remove it from the search results list.

  • Windows 11 seems to have a different experience even when you install it

    Windows 11 seems to have a different experience even when you install it

    It’s not the familiar screens that will be waiting for you when Windows 11 Setup starts. Instead, there are pictures to prove that.

    Microsoft wants to kick-start a whole new Windows experience with the release of System 11. At least that’s what you can tell by not even installing the software in front of the usual screens.

    The above conclusion appears to be confirmed by the screenshots provided by Neowin. The portal is one of the lucky ones who has already had a closer look at the platform, which officially debuted on 24 June.

    The installation process will be similar to Windows 10 (so no new steps are expected), but the screens on the fly look completely different: the windows are fenced off, and the design is much more future-like and clean.

    According to Neowin, the experience doesn’t mean deer much different from Apple’s macOS.

  • UFO sightings are extremely common in China

    UFO sightings are extremely common in China

    Although only one official unidentified flying object (UFO) has been officially registered in China – back in 1998 – there have been so many sightings recently that it is already testing the country’s air defenses.

    In recent years, we have heard more and more about increased UFO sightings. A former U.S. Navy seal, for example, claims to have seen strange things in the sky for years – Obama says ufo videos are real, and no one can find an explanation yet. The Pentagon report, by the way, was leaked just recently, but it only made more of a question mark.

    Sightings are not a U.S. privilege. As reported by China’s South China Morning Post, the British newspaper The Independent reports that the Chinese military has already put artificial intelligence on the subject to track unidentified flying objects.

    According to the Chinese newspaper, this is necessary because it is difficult to trace the increase in military and civilian sightings in recent years with human resources.

    Back in 2019, Chinese Air Force official Chen Li wrote to scientists in Beijing that the growing phenomenon poses a serious challenge to the country’s air defences.

    AI is also involved in studies because it is able to find correlations between separate events in space and time over which human attention is missed.

    In the first round, the Chinese military collects vast amounts of raw data from various radar stations, air force pilots, police and various monitoring centers, which are then processed by the military and then sent to a central database. They are then analyzed based on behavior, appearance, substance composition and radioactivity, among others.

    The artificial intelligence then looks at whether unidentified flying objects have appeared at military or political events, comparing them to data from weather-monitoring satellites and natural phenomena to determine their possible origins.

    The only sighting that China has officially acknowledged occurred in 1998. Two fighter pilots then turned their attention to a low-flying mushroom-shaped flying object. After it began to follow, the object increased its speed and then disappeared at an altitude of 20,000 meters.

  • Twitter has been banned in Nigeria

    Twitter has been banned in Nigeria

    On the government’s instructions in Nigeria, telecom operators suspended Twitter on Saturday, the telecoms regulator said. The antecedent of this is that yesterday, the community site deleted one of the Head of State Muhammadu Buhari entries. He threatened the breakaway forces of the country.

    On Friday, the government announced that Twitter would be suspended indefinitely in the country, citing information minister Lai Mohammed as saying that “the platform will continue to be used for activities that threaten the country’s integrity.”

    ON WEDNESDAY, the U.S. company, which operates Twitter, said that in one of his posts that day, President Buhari threatened to punish the breakaway forces he said were responsible for attacking government buildings, an “aggressive behavior” in the company’s rules.

    In April, the information minister reacted indignantly by opening Twitter’s first African office in Nigeria and neighboring Ghana. Lai Mohammed said the company was affected by false media reports that, for example, last year, the authorities smashed protests.

    Organizers of protests in Nigeria are also using social media sites to mobilize, as in many other countries, and raise money for victims of police abuse.

  • This is it, LG will no longer produce phones as of tomorrow

    This is it, LG will no longer produce phones as of tomorrow

    In the future, home appliances will be made in the Vietnamese factory where the smartphones have been assembled so far. LG announced in early April that it would pull down the blinds of its mobile manufacturing division. 

    The South Korean company decided so after the unit has only managed to lose since 2015, and no buyer has been found for it. The GSMArena now writes, according to the Korean sources, the manufacturer of LG mobile handsets and tablets last Monday.

    According to the paper, those who have bought an LG phone will not have to worry for the time being, as the company will release an upgrade to the top models for another three years. Some models – mostly members of the Q family – will also receive Android 12, and even the next-released premium devices will even feature Android 13 next year. It is also important that the manufacturer provides service for four years from the manufacture of the devices.

    LG Electronics ’Vietnamese factory, where the phones were manufactured, is switching to assembling home appliances. The company has already shifted some of its production capacity to this, just as it has redeployed workers who have been involved in assembling mobiles so far. The others will be taken over for these tasks by the end of July.

    The plant in Haiphong – where telephones are made and telephones – was started in 2015. Switching to home appliance manufacturing is definitely a good decision financially, as LG forecasts record sales of $6.3 billion for the second quarter of 2021.

    Meanwhile, Apple in South Korea is trying to entice users with various promotions: in a recently announced exchange program, LG mobile phones will be charged for 150 thousand Korean won, or about 39 thousand forints, to those who buy an iPhone 12 or iPhone 12 mini and use it for at least a month. Meanwhile, LG is offering employees phones for purchase that the company hasn’t even unveiled.
