VinFast, which is Vietnam’s first fully-fledged domestic carmaker, is a fairly young automaker as it only founded in 2017. That being said, the company has a solid background since it is a subsidiary of Vingroup JSC which is a massive conglomerate founded by the country’s first billionaire, Phạm Nhật Vượng. But one source said that VinFast is instead leaning towards a partnership – the company wants to brand itself as an eco-friendly automaker and keep its EV business....

TFT Central reports that future G-Sync monitors will support HDMI-VRR and Adaptive Sync over HDMI and DisplayPort. This will allow machines using AMD graphics, including consoles, to make use of at least some of the benefits of using a G-Sync display.

But on the other, it doesn’t quite bode well for the rest of the world either way....

The announcement came from Raymond herself, albeit via the PlayStation Blog. It may sound like an odd avenue, considering the fact that she calls it an independent studio. But then she mentions that the studio is already making an as-of-yet unannounced IP.

To start, God of War Ragnarok has both a Collector’s Edition and a Jotnar Edition, the latter being the fancier one packed with more extras. Both will come in a box that is made to look like the Knowledge Keeper’s Shrine. The Collector’s Edition will come with two-inch Vanir Twins carvings, and a wooden Dwarven dice set which can see some interesting use if you’re into tabletop games. The highlight here is a 16-inch Mjolnir replica, which looks a little too fancy for it to be swung around....

Not to mention, Ahmad Idham sounds incredibly pretentious and hypocritical considering a couple of years ago, he produced, directed and starred in a film — Pencuri Hati Mr. Cinderella — where the leading lady gets roofied and raped and the rapist’s only repercussion is to marry the girl. However, a few days later, the Chairman of FINAS, Datuk Hans Isaac rubbished off Ahmad Idham’s ideas, stating that FINAS will not be the moral police as Netflix can be filtered by users themselves....

The code was discovered when a number of public beta users appear to have gotten Android Q beta 5 ahead of schedule....

Back in 2013, the company came up with the Wallet debit card, but it was scrapped in 2016....

The incumbent Chief Minister doubled down and stressed that the plan is not an empty promise, adding that he has already calculated the cost and that it would not be a financial burden....

Toh Han Li, Chief Executive of the CCCS, said, “Mergers that substantially lessen competition are prohibited and CCCS has taken action against the Grab-Uber merger because it removed Grab’s closest rival, to the detriment of Singapore drivers and riders....
