This is something that is not lost on Meta who is already gearing up for the upcoming 15th Malaysian General Election (GE15). During a recent briefing with media members, its Head of Politics and Government Outreach for APAC, Roy Tan insists it is part of Meta’s objective to ensure that it is harder for anyone to interfere with elections through the company’s platforms while continuing to allow their users have their voices heard....

According to The Verge, the build doesn’t look like it’s meant to be used by device and machines running on a 32-bit version of Windows 10. That aside, the build does give us a look at the new layout of the design, which as you can see, foregoes Microsoft’s Live Tiles. From what we can see, it clearly doesn’t look as lively or as interactive as the Live Tiles; the new silhouette motif being used here looks very plain and pales in comparison to the punchy and vibrant colours the current Windows 10 build has....

Of course, the dual-screen device being referenced here is the rumoured dual-screen Surface display, codenamed “Centaurus”, that will reportedly be making its debut during Microsoft’s big event. According to Blass, Centaurus will be running on the new Windows 10X OS. In addition, he also says that the OS might run applications in “containers”, whatever that may mean. Beyond the tweet, Blass doesn’t seem to provide any additional information or images of the supposed dual-screen Surface, and Microsoft seems to be playing this card very close to its chest....

In the post, he says that “Internet Explorer is a compatibility solution.” This is because some businesses still use it for their web page and web apps. Rather than spending resources to make them compatible with the new-age browsers, they continue to use them because they were designed to be used with it. The problem with this is that Internet Explorer is not updated with the latest web standards. This will cause sites and web apps to be locked out of features that it could otherwise benefit from....

The modder in question goes by the handle Temujin123 and they posted up their project over on the ComputerBase forums. In terms of hardware and because of the limited amount of space, the modder chose to go with an AMD build. To that end, they chose a Ryzen 5 Pro 4650G APU and paired it with a mini-STX ASRock X300M motherboard, along with 16GB DDR4-3200MHz RAM. The primary reason behind Temujin123’s choice is, once again, due to space; because of the Dreamcast’s cramped chassis, they aren’t even able to cram in a small form-factor GPU....

For those who have not been following the collaboration, this brings Geralt of Rivia to the Astera. As part of the collaboration content, players get to play as The Witcher himself through a substantial single player quest. Through this, Geralt will bring some of his own unique abilities to the world of Monster Hunter, as he hunts down a familiar foe from his own world.

Earlier in the year, MSI gave me a glimpse of the GS66 Stealth, it’s new top-of-the-line gaming laptop under its GS series lineup. Now, with the laptop in our lab and as my daily driver, let’s answer that age-old question that is asked of any product: is it any good and what exactly sets it apart from the crowd.

The hue is officially known as Rose Pink, and to be clear, the colour is merely an aesthetic option. Beyond that, you’re still looking at a Prestige 14 sporting the same refreshed hardware as its Carbon Grey brother. Specs-wise, the notebook houses a 10th generation Intel Core i7-10510U CPU, 16GB LPDDR3 RAM running at 2133MHz, a 512GB of NVMe PCIe SSD, and an NVIDIA GeForce MX330 discrete GPU.

ORIGINAL STORY (10:56 AM): You apparently have to scan the MySejahtera QR code when you visit a petrol station even though you are there just to pump fuel into your vehicle and don’t have the intention to enter the station’s convenience store. At least that is what Bukit Aman Criminal Investigation Department Deputy Director DCP Mior Faridalathrash Wahid told China Press through a WhatsApp conversation. This conversation took place after a man claimed that his father was fined RM 1000 by the police for not scanning and using the MySejahtera app at a petrol station even though he was there just to fuel up his vehicle....

The Z FC in a way succeeds the brand’s earlier retro styled release back in 2013, the Nikon Df, where it too sports a classic silver and black body. But this retro look appears to work even better on the new camera, thanks to the more compact bodies of mirrorless cameras that are more in line with the film cameras of old. While the iconic silver and black look is the “hero” colour prominently shown in the promotional materials, Nikon is actually offering the Z FC in six colour options: white, pink, mint, grey, brown and beige....

Twitter user @KawlunDram opened up one such dock of the Nintendo Switch OLED, and shared that it contained a new Realtek chip. And it’s one that is advertised as “4K UHD multimedia SoC”.

Further supporting this is the HDMI cable that came with the Nintendo Switch OLED. @KawlunDram plugged it into an Xbox One X to check that it supports 4K 60fps, and the results turn out positive, suggesting that it was a HDMI 2....
