Looking at the schedule, Xiaomi will be releasing MIUI 12 in three batches, the first of which is by the end of June. The dates for the second and third batches were not announced, and this timetable applies only to China. According to XDA, the global release will be announced later. But going in order of the current timetable, the first batch consists of these Xiaomi devices, including their Pro and Lite variants if they have any:...

Besides featuring a built-in USB-C port, also present on the Nitecore UFZ100 is an integrated LED charge indicator. Obviously, this lets users know of the battery’s current power levels, where red indicates the charge is below 10%, blue for below half, and green for above 50% charge. Like the first-party batteries, the UFZ100 offers 7.2v of power delivery, but comes with slightly less charge at only 2250mAh (Sony’s have 30mAh more)....

To the uninitiated, Game of Thrones may come off as a tad bit soap operatic. Especially when its followers come running up the way to express their utter shock to folks who know nothing of the series. I was once the latter before I saw the light of good television! Since the very first season, Game of Thrones has consistently delivered jaw-dropping moments that have left audience members in near-catatonic states by the end of its many, many episodes....

There is a catch, though: while the highest-tier Zephyrus G14 model with the 1440p 60Hz display will be available for purchase in Malaysia starting today, ASUS is only bringing in the same variant with the 120Hz Full HD display a few months later in September. Along with the same AMD Ryzen 9 4900HS CPU, 16GB DDR4-3200MHz RAM, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 Max-Q GPU, as well as the 76WHr battery....

This can be seen as a 90-day extension to the app’s ban, which was to happen on 20 September. With the new executive order, this has now been effectively extended to 12 November. This can then be extended by up to another 30 days. In addition to selling its US business, the executive order also demands that ByteDance destroys all data collected on US users. Overall, this is like some good news for TikTok, as well as its vast user base....

The company previously announced it would dedicate between US$25 billion (~RM103.4 billion) to US$28 billion (~RM115.9 billion) this year for the development and production of advanced chips, Reuters said. None of this is exactly surprising as a global chip shortage continues to strangle the tech and automotive industries, pushing semiconductor demand to historic highs. TSMC CEO C.C. Wei wrote in a letter seen by Bloomberg that while the company’s factories have operated at over 100% utilisation over the past year, demand still is running ahead supply....

DESIGN & USER EXPERIENCE The TTRacing Duo V3, like most other gaming chairs out there, adopts the look of racing harnesses. It’s comfortable enough to sit on, as you’d expect from a gaming chair. But, there are some important caveats, and they lie in the differences between the Duo V3 and other gaming chairs. One clear difference between it and most other gaming chairs is that it doesn’t come with extra pillows for head and lumbar support....

The good news is that Malaysia is in the list of countries getting localised subscription pricing. The not-so-good news, if you’re subscribed to anyone, is that it will take awhile before we see our localised prices. Twitch says that it will start with Mexico and Turkey first, on 20 May. This will then be followed by “most countries in Asia, Latin America, the Middle East, Africa, and Europe starting in Q3 2021”....

The list which is called the Opensignal’s Global Rising Stars in general highlights the top 30 most improved telcos throughout the globe.

U Mobile’s name is listed in four of these categories including Video Experience, Download Speed Experience, 4G Availability, and Voice App Experience. Opensignal stated that the improvement rates that the telco managed to achieve in these categories are 36....

As the publisher puts it, The Division Resurgence has its own story that is related, but independent, of the first two games. It’s also unique in the sense that this game tells the story from the perspective of a first wave agent, many of which have gone rogue by the events of the first two games. It’s a major part of The Division story that hasn’t been explored, besides the one most infamous rogue agent Aaron Keener....

Such a currency could possibly enable businesses and consumers to bypass commercial banks when making payments and hold accounts directly with the central bank, Reuters said. However, the UK government and the BoE did note that they haven’t yet decided on whether to introduce a CBDC (Central Bank Digital Currency) in the country. They emphasised that, while a CBDC would be a new form of money, it would exist alongside cash and bank deposits, rather than replacing them....

The airdrop was axed after a fake account minted seven billion “Peace World Tokens” that analysts suspect was created through spoofing by a third-party, which have now been tagged by Etherscan as “misleading” and that the tokens could be spam or phishing. — Mykhailo Fedorov (@FedorovMykhailo) March 3, 2022 For its donation efforts, the Ukraine is accepting Bitcoin, Ethereum, Tether, Dogecoin, Solana, and Polkadot, as well as NFTs. According to Elliptic, a cryptocurrency analytics firm, Ukraine has received more than US$55 million (~RM230 million) in cryptocurrency since 26 February, though that still dwarves in comparison to the US$270 million (~RM1....

Less than three days ago, Fedorov had asked Musk for help to provide Starlink terminals as the country’s internet was severely disrupted when GigaTrans, Ukraine’s backbone internet provider, saw connectivity temporarily fall to below 20% of normal levels, as reported by NetBlocks. The SpaceX CEO quickly responded and said that terminals were being sent. — Mykhailo Fedorov (@FedorovMykhailo) February 26, 2022 While the low-orbit internet satellite service can provide a relatively fast connection, Tim Farrar, a consultant in satellite communications, noted that using Starlink in Ukraine’s current situation would be challenging....

According to a report released in the UK, the hacks were conducted by APT29 – also known as Cozy Bear – a hacker group that is reportedly by the Russian state and to date, has targeted universities, diplomatic agencies, and health organisations located around the world. The report further elaborates Cozy Bear’s actions, saying that the hacker group had been trying to steal intellectual property relating to vaccines. Via a variety of tools and techniques that involves port scanning and spear-phishing....

The US Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) claimed on Twitter that it seized 2000 counterfeit Apple AirPods from Hong Kong. The agency also says that they will be valued at US$398000 had they been genuine. But in the accompanying image, these pods never pretended to be Apple products to begin with. The box clearly says OnePlus Buds, after all. — OnePlus➕ (@OnePlus_USA) September 14, 2020 Sure enough, more tech-savvy netizens piled on the CBP’s ignorance....

Well, sort of. The game in question is Virtua Fighter 5: Ultimate Showdown, which is a remake of the game released back in 2006. It features the Yakuza series’ Dragon Engine on the graphics department. Stages are also getting new music to go with them. And probably most importantly, the game will come with more modern online functionality. It’s also worth mentioning that this is a PS4 exclusive, which makes it all the more special an inclusion....

In terms of looks, it looks very reminiscent of the Apple Airpods, though it’s definitely not alone in that aspect. But looks aside, it does come pretty feature complete. To start, it comes with an IP54 rating, which allows you to take it with you when you go for a run. It has a battery life of 4.5 hours, with the carrying case giving it an additional 22.5 hours. Other items on the spec sheet of the Vivo TWS Neo include Bluetooth 5....
