Activision will add Real time Voice Chat Moderation in Call of Duty to ban toxic players
Source
Activision is launching a new AI-powered real time voice chat moderator that has been developed by a software company called Modulate.
It will detect toxic players to Activision in real time in games like Warzone, Modern Warfare 2, Call of duty etc
Activision after confirming the report sent by AI, will then BAN the players
So, voice chat in Call of Duty games will be monitored and recorded
Hate speech, racism, discrimination, sexism, and other types of harmful language, as outlined in the Code of Conduct will NOT be tolerated
Trash-talk and friendly banter is allowed by the voice chat moderator
The new AI technology will arrive with the Season 5 Reloaded update first in USA in an initial beta state
Activision has started moderating voice chats in Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone.
Imo, if this happens, 80% of the players will face a BAN

Honor Tech unveiled its Logo
Honor is returning back to the Indian market but it will NOT directly launch its smartphones.
Instead, a new start-up called "Honor Tech" (founded in 2023), comprises many top-level Realme Executives, has bought 100% licensing rights of HONOR Brand from Honor China
So Honor Tech will now sell Honor China smartphone in India by importing them from China
Madhav Sheth (Ex-Realme India CEO) will lead Honor Tech
Seems like Logo is either AI generated or drawn by an under-paid guy who then used MS-Paint for it

FunFact: WordPad is available in Windows since 1995 when Microsoft released Windows 95
So its been deprecated after 28yrs

Youtuber's Honest Reviews: IP68 water resistant smartphone tests
Motorola Edge 40 has an IP68 rating!
It is a standard used to measure the level of protection provided by a device against the intrusion of dust and water
IP= "Ingress Protection"
6= Dust tight
8= Water resistant
So IP68 rated smartphones can survive in water upto 1.5m for 30mins & are dust resistant
I recently stumbled upon a famous & so-called "honest Youtubers" take on testing Motorola Edge 40 IP68 rated claim
But he did "glass plate in the kitchen sink" show wherein he kept the phone in a glass plater full of water upto 5cm and only tested it for 2 minutes lmao
Then claimed Motorola Edge 40 offers IP68 protection
You see, some Youtubers 'impartial' tests are FAKE & they give us the illusion of being 'truth-tellers,' but in reality, they're more like brand cheerleaders
A guy on twitter reported that his Motorola Edge 40 got moisture in lens and Motorola Service Center told him "IP68 rating Is just to avoid sweat"

Xiaomi and Vivo's Surprise: Chrome Homepage Switcheroo!
Twitter
Picture this: You use Google Chrome in your smartphones when suddenly, Xiaomi steps in and decides,
"Hey, let's change your default homepage to our very own website!"
Without any fanfare or announcement, Xiaomi is secretly been changing the default homepage of Google Chrome browser in its MIUI.
It redirects to mintnav.com, Xiaomi's navigation site.
This change is happening under the radar, no announcements, no permissions asked by Xiaomi
Many users on Reddit reported that Its happening mostly after updating to MIUI 14.
You can check by going in Homepage option under Chrome's Setting
The reason is, Vendors (Xiaomi) can actually push a default homepage in Chrome Android
Thats why you can see same thing even on Custom ROMs since Chrome would sync it
I don't think so who gonna love when their Chrome browser redirects to Xiaomi Navigation site at start
Prolly that's why some users love Xiaomi and even their MIUI over Custom ROMs
Vivo and iQOO also does same thing as other chinese brands

Woman bites through security wire to steal iPhone 14 Plus in China
Source
A woman in China was caught "chewing" through the Apple store's anti-theft cord to steal the iPhone 14 Plus worth around 7,000 CNY (960 US$ or ₹79,750)
She got successful in completely biting off the cable, then put the iPhone 14 Plus in her bag and left the store.
Nobody suspected her because she pretended like she is scrolling through the phone like a normal customer
The theft alarm was reportedly set OFF during the theft, said the store manager
After the manager showed CCTV evidence to the police, they caught her in just 30mins
The thief told police that "she planned to buy a new device at the store after losing her phone, but when she saw the prices she decided to steal one."

TRICK: Utilize Windows Bugs to your Advantage
Twitter
Everybody knows Windows File Explorer is pretty slow and even says "working on it" when you search something
So here's a trick using which you can utilize a Windows bug to speed up your Windows File Explorer
Trick: Open the File Explorer and then switch in to Full screen mode by pressing F11 or Fn+F11
After that immediately switch out to normal by pressing F11 again
You will notice this bug noticeably improves load times!
This F11 trick also improves directory loading performance OR drastically lowers the "Working on it..." time on production Windows 11 builds where there is no XAML navigation bar yet
Yeah, I have tested it and this trick works 100% lmfaoooo
A guy has even developed a AutoHotKey noscript to automate this process XD
Check it out on GitHub

With this data, 3rd-party developers can create global mapping or navigation products of their own, allowing them to go head-to-head with Google Maps and Apple Maps
According to Overture, the release includes 59 Million places of interest, along with data on buildings, restaurant, transportation networks, and administrative boundaries etc
The data layers have been formatted so developers can “ingest and use map data in a standard, documented way and will be interoperable"

Get Ready to pay to Spotify for Lyrics now
Spotify added lyrics features back in 2021 which is FREE to both non-subscribers as well as premium users
But now, Spotify is restricting access to premium subscribers for lyrics, ditching it for free tier users
Since I use Apple music & Youtube Music, I downloaded Spotify to confirm the rumour and found out lyrics are still available
Even in Spotify latest beta version, lyrics is still a FREE feature for me
So, Spotify is basically testing "lyrics as Premium Excluisve feature" and some unlucky users have got it in their experiment
Only time will tell, if Spotify will keep lyrics for premium tier or for both

Apple MacBooks will be affordable

Apple is developing a low-cost MacBook series to compete with Chromebook models in the education sector
A new product line will be launched by apple for its low-cost MacBook series
Low-cost MacBook would still retain metal build quality but it would be made of different material
The unit price of the mechanical components will be lower, allowing for a more affordable price similar to Chromebooks.
Compared with the rapid growth of Chromebooks due to Covid-19, Apple's iPad is falling behind in the education sector.
In Q2 2023, Apple saw iPad revenue fall 20% on year. Apple estimated it will continue to fall in Q3 2023 as well
Industry Observers noted that iPads CANNOT compete with Chromebooks because:
1) iPads are not that easy to use as Chromebooks
2) Chromebook are more affordable
Low-cost Apple Macbooks will launch in second-half of 2024
