Microsoft Windows and Surface Products head Panos Panay resigned
After 20yrs of working in Microsoft, Panos Panay (Microsoft Chief Product Officer) who looks after Microsoft Windows Operating System & Surface devices have decided to leave the company
He announced his resignation BEFORE Microsoft launched its Surface products posted above
Amazon will be hiring Panos Panay and he will be looking after Amazon Alexa voice-assistant & Echo smart-speakers Products
The reason to leave Microsoft could be "Microsoft is reducing its device portfolio" & it would be scrapping the "Microsoft" branded accessories in favor of premium Surface ones.
Microsoft will NOT ship new niche or experimental Surface hardware now
Microsoft CANCELLED its plans for:
• Surface Headphones
• Surface Studio All-in-One
• Surface Duo 3 (Microsoft Foldable)
• Surface Laptop SE 2
• 11-inch Surface Pro

Anynomous Sudan is now attacking Telegram!
Anonymous Sudan announced the start of a new attack on Telegram's infrastructure in the morning. The official website and Telegram Bot API were experiencing disruptions at the time.
After the attack was finished, they said that "We will attack Telegram again in the coming days, and there will be no attack schedules; it will be random."
Hence, there will be more attacks in the coming days.
Why did they attack Telegram?
Telegram had banned their channel which had around 116k members, so, to take revenge, they're now attacking Telegram.

Google taunts Apple by announcing ‘iPager’
Google taunted Apple by releasing a video that equates Apple’s messaging standards to those from the pager days.
The video shows a made-up device called 'iPager', which, Google says, “uses outdated" messaging tech, "like Apple uses" when texting with Android.
Google accuses Apple for lack of innovation as its causing "modern technology texting nightmares"
The video blames Apple for:
• Green-Bubble nonsense
• Breaking communication b/w people
• Zero encryption b/w Android & iPhones
Why Google wants Apple to adopt RCS?
Apple is the sole reason behind Green bubble v/s Blue bubble texting phenomenon existence in the USA
iPhone users rely upon iMessage to chat instead of using services like WhatsApp or Telegram that allow everyone to use modern messaging features similar to RCS.
Enjoy the hilarious Video :)

MediaTek Dimensity 9300 chipset will likely have heating issues
MediaTek’s is working on its upcoming hot new flagship chipset i.e Dimensity 9300 SoC
CPU:
4x Cortex X4
4x A720 cores
Octa-Core with 4+4 configuration.
But according to tipsters, this Dimensity chip is literally be running too hot to operate at its advertised frequencies
The reason is MediaTek itself only since most ARM-based chips contain a mix of fast & slow cores to throttle back the power (and thus the heat) during less intensive computing tasks, but MediaTek chose to use ONLY the fast (A720) & very fast cores (X4) in the chip design
MediaTek is even trying to get these rumours pulled down as they are reaching to individual publication requesting them to remove articles related to heating & thermal issues of its upcoming Dimensity 9300 chip
