Last October, I wrote about a new feature in Microsoft Teams that automatically updates a user’s location. It does this by detecting when a device connects to the office Wi-Fi network. Microsoft explained that the feature, listed as 488800 on their roadmap, would set a user’s work location to the building they’re currently in when connected to the company’s Wi-Fi.
As a tech fan, it’s really interesting to watch the Chinese GPU companies trying to compete with giants like NVIDIA and AMD. They’re clearly putting in a lot of effort to become major players, both in the AI world and for regular gamers and consumers like me.
A new framework demonstrates that entanglement can be detected using rotationally covariant measurements, even with seemingly mundane systems like a glass of lemonade.
Here’s a complete list of the latest changes and updates, including everything from the previous one.
It might be unexpected, but the channel has chosen a somewhat controversial Bond film for its Christmas week showing. Instead of a classic favorite, they’ve selected Pierce Brosnan’s last Bond movie, Die Another Day, which often divides opinions.
Game director Yura Zhdanovich expressed excitement about finally announcing the release date for REPLACED. He acknowledged the game took longer to develop than expected and thanked players for their patience and support, promising it will be worth the wait when it launches on March 12th.
Premiering in 2023, The Night Agent is a thrilling series based on Matthew Quirk’s novel. It follows a low-level FBI agent working in the White House basement, answering a rarely-used phone. When the phone finally rings, he’s thrust into a high-stakes conspiracy that reaches the highest levels of power. The first season was a hit with both critics and viewers, and Season 2 finds Peter Sutherland getting a chance to become a Night Agent – a role that quickly puts him back in the midst of danger.
So, I heard Foxconn, through its Fushan Technology branch, is trying to get the green light to seriously ramp up Xbox production. They’re looking at making an extra 4.8 million Xbox consoles and parts every year! It’s not just consoles either – they’ll also be building some other electronic bits and pieces, but they haven’t said exactly what those are yet.
A fun feature in more recent games is the addition of ‘what if?’ storylines, letting players see how events could have unfolded if key battles had different outcomes. This idea actually started over twenty years ago with a Dragon Ball Z game that offered three alternate endings. One ending, in particular, really stood out, showcasing a lesser-known character’s bravery and the surprisingly humorous possibilities of these alternate realities.
A new book connected to Stranger Things has been released, filling in a gap between seasons four and five and even finishing a storyline the show left unfinished. Titled One Way or Another, and described as “A Nancy Wheeler Mystery,” the novel is written by Caitlin Scheiderhan, a writer for the show’s fifth season. It’s a compelling read that accurately portrays the characters and cleverly resolves a plot thread that was left dangling in season four.
