Specifically, the minister stated that the first stage of reopening will see classroom lessons to continue for students sitting for Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM), Sijil Vokasional Malaysia (SVM), Sijil Tinggi Persekolahan (STPM) and Sijil Tinggi Agama Malaysia (STAM), as well as equivalent international examinations. The School Reopening Management Guidelines had been distributed to schools earlier this month in order to prepare for the aforementioned date. He also explained that schools are now required to carry out body temperature screenings for both students and school staff, and will not permit any individuals from entering if they display symptoms or return body temperatures exceeding 37....

The image was first posted on Twitter by some unknown user and promptly removed, but not before it was downloaded and saved by certain parties. Like all leaks, the authenticity of the image has undoubtedly been called to question by certain parties. However, leakster site Videocardz believes that the alleged RX 6800XT board could be the real deal, especially seeing how the main GPU has been blotted out. We can, of course, make out certain details from the PCB; for a start, the memory modules – highlighted by the yellow tape on top of the solder bumps – are empty, but at least we know that there will be eight of them....

According to information obtained by the popular leakster site, Videocardz, NVIDIA will be announcing three cards on the day: the GeForce RTX 3090, RTX 3080, and RTX 3070. As per earlier reports, we know that the RTX 3090 will be the GPU maker’s top-tier card, featuring a GA102-300GPU, 24GB GDDR6X, and 51248 CUDA cores. Running across a 384-bit memory bus. The card will have a TDP of 350W. What is surprising is that the same source says that the RTX 3080 that will launch concurrently will have 4352 CUDA cores and just 10GB GDDR6X memory, which is clearly and significantly less than half the GDDR6X memory that the RTX 3090 runs on....

The leak was initially posted by Twitter user Raichu (@OneRaichu) and in addition to the HX Series SKUs, they also provide their core configuration, their base and boost clocks, as well as their max DRM support. Starting from the bottom and interestingly enough, the unannounced lineup lists down not one, but two Core i5 processors, the 13450HX and 13500HX. The former will supposedly have 10-cores, 16-threads, while the latter will have 14-cores, 20-threads, respectively....

News of this was brought forward by the Internal Archive account on Twitter, which usually shares rare demo units or prototypes of various Apple products. In a recent tweet, it shared a set of photos featuring the aforementioned iPhone model with the logo misprint, and noted that such production errors are extremely rare – claimed to be about 1 in 100 million chance. This makes this particular unit possibly the only one of its kind, therefore increasing its value for collectors....

It should be made clear that even by our standards, this leak about the RTX 4080 16GB is highly suspect for a couple of reasons. Firstly, it comes at a time when the performance details of NVIDIA’s flagship, the RTX 4090, won’t officially be appearing until next week. Second, and in conjunction with the first point, we are wondering how the parties in question managed to get their hands on a working driver for the card, especially since it is NVIDIA alone that provides the official and unreleased drivers of a new product to reviewers, in order to get their reviews out in time....

Both side-channel attacks are designed to attack the L1D cache way predictor. Where data is stored on AMD processors. As per Techspot’s explanation, the exploits – dubbed the “Take A Way” flaws – are first attacked with the attacker picking a corresponding address with the target data. From there, the attacker can then create a link based on the address, thus enabling access to the address to be quicker with the next infiltration....

Details of the 4700G was first posted on Reddit by a user called Hifihedgehog. The details are clear; the APU is based on AMD’s 7nm Zen 2 CPU architecture, specifically the Renoir architecture. As with all APUs, the 4700G unsurprisingly comes loaded with a set of Radeon Vega Graphic Cores as well. Specs-wise, the benchmark shows that the 4700G sports an 8-cores, 16-threads layout and has a TDP power envelope of 65W....

As per its presentation, AMD’s new Ryzen 7000 series will be shipping out globally, with the initial lineup comprising no less than four SKUs at launch. That list, which also serves of confirmation of their existence, includes the Ryzen 5 7600X, Ryzen 7 7700X, Ryzen 9 7900X, and Ryzen 9 7950X. In summary, the Ryzen 5 7600X is the entry-level CPU of the lot, featuring a 6-core, 12-thread design, with boost clock of 5....

Based on the coverage by the Korean entity QuasarZone, the TechTuber seemed to have gotten confirmation that AMD intends to release 16-core, 12-core, and 8-core variants of its next-generation Ryzen 7000X3D CPUs. For that matter, the respective clocks of each variant is expected to be the same as their non-3D V-Cache variant. So, by process of association, the 16-core will be a variation of the Ryzen 9 7950X with a boost clock of 5....

To quickly recap, the new 65W, non-X Ryzen 7000 Series CPUs lineup comprises three SKUs. The first, and starting from the bottom, is the Ryzen 5 7600. Specs-wise, the CPU features 6-cores, 12-threads, has a maximum boost clock of 5.1GHz, and Combined L2 and L3 Cache of 38MB. Additionally, this model comes bundled with a low-profile Wraith Stealth Cooler. Moving up the 65W non-X Ryzen 7000 Series ladder is the Ryzen 7 7000....

The Among Us Twitter account starts off lightheartedly, but ultimately says that the game servers in the affected regions will be offline while the team works on fixing the issue. As of yesterday, the account said that servers may come on and off as a fix is still in the works. It also says that it will provide an update when things are stable again. they may come on/off but will update u when we think they’re stable, sorry!...

Instead of simultaneous switch off, the ASO will take place in specific areas first before it is done at other states and regions. Gerard has also pointed out that the ASO will start from June onwards until the latter part of Q3 2019. However, the exact dates are still being finalized and will be announced very soon. Despite that, he has stressed that the switch off will no longer be postponed anymore which is why the regulatory body is urging consumers to migrate to the myFreeview digital TV broadcast right away, either via a dedicated DVB-T2 tuner such as the MYTV decoders or TVs with a built-in digital TV tuner....

Such is the claim by IHS Markit analyst Jeff Lin, according to BGR. This upcoming Apple tablet will feature the latest A series processor, and a display almost the size of a MacBook’s. It will also have “business-friendly” features, which sounds like it may be an iteration of the iPad Pro. That said, Lin did not describe what the design of the device will be like. This leaves it quite open as to the way the iPad in question will fold, or the number of hinges that it will have....

Of course, there are other ways to mine for cryptocurrency – specifically, Ethereum – and with that said, it should come as no surprise that Apple’s M1 chip was recently confirmed as a “potential” mining option. The M1’s mining potential as an Ethereum miner was discovered by Yifan Gu, a software engineer for Zensors, through a MacBook Air, and you would expect, there is a bit of fiddling about with some software....

Much of what has been leaked before ended up being accurate after all. It makes use of Apple’s H1 chip, which gives it Siri support. Battery life is rated at 15 hours, just as the leaks suggested. On the now official product page, the Powerbeats also features sweat and water resistance. While this is expected from headphones made for working out, no IP rating was given. But this makes it quite similar to the Powerbeats Pro, besides the neckband cable and battery life....

The lawsuit was reportedly filed by the China-based Zhizhen Network Technology, who is accusing the company from Cupertino of infringing on its AI-based assistant, Xiao-i. The company had been awarded the patent rights by the Shanghai Supreme Court. For Apple’s alleged transgression, the company is also seeking financial compensation to the sum of US$1.4 billion (~RM5.9 billion). In addition to the financial compensation, Zhizhen Network Technology is also hoping to obtain a full-on ban on Siri-enabled products across China....

Craig Federighi, VP of Software Engineering, did put on a mind-blowing demo that showed him dragging a file from an iPad, through a MacBook, and finally dropping the file in an iMac on a three-monitor setup. While something like this was already possible through software such as Synergy or Logitech’s Flow, the process itself has always been complicated and limited in its capabilities. Universal Control, on the other hand, makes this process smooth and painless with no setup required....

According to Reuters, the threat actor hacked at least nine Department-issued iPhones over a course of several months and targeted officials either based in Uganda or was likely to be in possession of details pertaining to matters happening within the country. For the uninitiated, Pegasus is spyware created by the Israeli-based firm, NSO Group. The company has been under the crosshairs of both Apple and the US Government, with both entities having taken action against the company, in one form or another....

As usual, the event is expected to reveal the next major software updates for iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, and tvOS. Apple claims that it has a community of more than 30 million developers, who will get to participate in the week-long event for free which includes keynote speeches, State of the Union presentations, information sessions, and more.
