To quickly summarise, the iPad Air 5 sports the same design as its previous generation. This means the familiar 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display, stereo speakers while in landscape mode, and Touch ID integrated into the power button. But with the upgrade to the M1 chip, it gains a number of key features, the main one being Centre Stage for the 12MP front-facing camera. The other, if you opt for the model that supports both WiFi and mobile data, is 5G connectivity....

One of its primary goals in enforcing a ban is to prevent several major cities within its borders from being repeatedly hit by crippling power outages, that is directly caused by these power-hungry cryptomining operations. The nationwide power outages first came to light back during February this year, when a major city in Iran was plagued with multiple power outages, brought about by GPU mining farms. The kicker to this story, however, is that these cryptofarms were not locally owned, but were in fact, owned by a China-based company called RHY....

Bloomberg reports that Jaguar Land Rover intends to phase out combustion engines to comply with the UK’s CO2 emissions rules. The company is investing GBP2.5 billion (~RM14.056 billion) a year into green tech. Which is perhaps the better alternative to paying GBP35 million (~RM196.8 million) in fines. Jaguar Land Rover will also release its first electric Land Rover in 2024. It will also introduce up to six fully electric Land Rover variants in five years....

According to the report, the upcoming phone will also come with an upgraded folding structure....

In its essence, VMCO is a contact tracing app that is meant to allow the public to move around and businesses to operate in an open and systematic manner. The main foundation of this app is rather simple which is through colour-coded individual profile. A green profile means that the individual can move freely within green zone areas. A yellow profile indicates that the person’s movement should be restricted to within 10km of his or her home and those with Orange profile would be restricted further to just 3km while a red profile means that the individual should not go out of his or her home....

For the uninitiated, Chainlink is a decentralised blockchain oracle network built on Ethereum that was first introduced in 2017. This network is intended to be used to facilitate the transfer of tamper-proof data from off-chain sources to on-chain transaction protocols known as smart contracts. According to its creators, Chainlink can be used to verify whether the parameters of a smart contract are met in a manner independent from any of the contract’s stakeholders by connecting the contract directly to real-world data, events, payments, and other inputs....

The offer is actually identical to what Samsung Malaysia itself has provided for the RoI page on its official website....

On stage, Microsoft boasts about just how thin the Surface Neo is at just 5.6mm. It feature a 360° hinge that allows the two 9-inch screens to fold inward or all the way to the back. The magic doesn’t end there either; the tablet cum notebook comes with its own variation of the Surface Touch Keyboard. It’s about 3/4 the size of one 9-inch display, and when folded over, it transforms the tablet into a mini notebook, with the top half of the bottom display transforming into a space that can house multiple browsers or an access point to emoji....
