Xabi Alonso talks about the upcoming Real Madrid vs Liverpool Champions League quarter-final tie

Real Madrid has been drawn against Liverpool in the Champions League quarter-finals. The last time these two sides met was in the 2018 Champions League final, where Los Blancos beat the Reds by 3-1 in the way to claim their third successive Champions League title.

Real Madrid would look to keep their record intact against the Reds and progress to the semi-finals. Whereas Liverpool has been already out of the Premier League title race mathematically, and winning the Champions League is their only hope of silverware this season.

Former Liverpool and Real Madrid midfielder Xabi Alonso has talked about the upcoming Champions League quarter-final tie between Real Madrid and Liverpool on 6th April.

Xabi Alonso told the Mirror: “Benzema has shown this season he is still one of the best strikers in Europe.

“He scores goals on big occasions and he will be the biggest threat for Madrid.

“This is where Liverpool will wish Van Dijk was fit – but Kabak will need to step up and show he is ready for these big games.”

Xabi also commented on the battle between Real ace Toni Kroos and Liverpool’s Fabinho. He added: “Kroos is another player who knows exactly what it takes to win The Champions League and is one of the most successful players in the competition.

“He again is very creative – and Fabinho will play a very important role in trying to break down the creativity of Kroos and the creativity of Madrid’s midfield.”

So as the leaks are piling up with due time, the launch might be imminent of the smartphone as well.

NASA’s Ingenuity helicopter is on its own on the surface of Mars until its take-off date

Space has always been a dream of humanity, and many tech giants are now eyeing to study more about the planet Mars to colonise it. Though making a man live on the neighbouring planet is still a far-fetched dream, we do have some robots (rovers) planting their wheels on the planet’s surface.

According to recent sources, NASA’s Perseverance rover has dropped off the mini helicopter Ingenuity ahead of the four-pound aircraft’s historic first flight. Reports indicate that the aircraft was dropped four inches from the belly of Perseverance to the surface of Mars.

Well, in terms of length, 4-inch is pretty small, however, getting Ingenuity to successfully stick the landing is still a significant milestone. The aircraft had to go through a multi-day process of flipping from a horizontal position on the rover to a vertical position before it was set down.

According to Ingenuity’s Chief Engineer, Bob Balaram, the Ingenuity can still draw power from the sun using its solar panels. Still, its heater has to keep the helicopter warm through the cold nights on Mars, where temperatures can go as low as negative 130 degrees Fahrenheit.

NASA has a pre-planned take-off date set for the helicopter, and it’s on April 11th. Until then, the Ingenuity has to survive the harsh conditions of the foreign planet. NASA outlined the helicopter’s flight zone; the plan is for Ingenuity to attempt as many as five test flights within 30 days before settling down on the surface of Mars for eternity.

Let’s hope that the small guy can survive through the harshness of the planet and do what only Matt Damon could do. Survive the Mars.

It is reasonable that Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Has Been Delayed

It is reasonable that Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Has Been Delayed

This year’s most big casualty regarding the videogame delay is Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, a great collection of all-new brick-punching levels covering the three Star Wars trilogies. This title was first revealed at E3 2019; then, it declared a release window of spring 2021. TT Games has now announced that it’s gonna need more time and hasn’t confirmed any new date yet.

The studio shared on Twitter, “All of us at TT Games is working hard to make Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga the biggest and best-ever Lego game—but we’re going to need more time to do it. We won’t be able to make our intended Spring release date but will provide updated launch timing as soon as possible.”

The Skywalker Saga will likely be more modern Lego games with voice actors performing scenes that describe the plot only with more gags. In contrast, the original Lego Star Wars made the prequels without dialogue, which turns them into silent movies slapstick.

From these three timelines, you can start any of these you prefer the most, so you don’t need to relive the prequels if you don’t want to, and it offers a lot of characters from across the entire series.

Below, here is the trailer, where you will see Yaddle, the Jedi Council member who looks similar to Yoda with hair.

Still, there are lots of upcoming games which gonna be so much excited. It’s now been sixteen years since the first Lego Star Wars. To date, we had seen so many games that had shoved out before they were ready, and that’s the reason any developer will take a bit more time now. There has been no release date announced for the Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga yet.

Apple Arcade on road towards success

Apple has launched and shelved most of its launched services and though the company doesn’t have a good history with how its launched services are appreciated in the market, it is still a fact that some of its services have been a major hit.

We all love Apple Music, and it is one of the good and cheap things to come out of the Cupertino giant. Even Apple TV+ is holding on, and its subscribers are growing a little every day. However, services like the Apple Arcade and Apple News+ have still to gather any worthwhile subscribers count.

Its been almost a year and a half since the launch of the Apple Arcade, and it seems that Apple has finally decided to make its service noticeable and worthwhile. Earlier, during the Apple Arcade’s initial days, the Cupertino Giant only wanted to bring beautiful and exclusive games for its ecosystem.

It was launched with over 100 games, something that was challenging for even companies like Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft. The problem was that none of the games was good enough to keep the players stick for a long period.

However, with the Apple One’s release, the company has finally decided to give some love to its Arcade service as well. On Friday, the company announced that Apple Arcade will now have over 180 games, and not only FANTASIA, but Apple is also bringing loads of classic iOS titles.

iOS classic games will help Apple Arcade grow as Apple taps into user nostalgia. Some of the good games on the platform include:

  • Cut the Rope
  • Monument Valley
  • Chameleon Run
  • Reigns
  • Fruit Ninja Classic

Cooling is one of the important issues in any laptop. LG provides a ‘dual power cooling system’ with LG Ultra Gear 17. It helps by quickly cooling internal heat with two coolers. This will aid in a stable running of high-end programs. Talking about the ports, LG Ultra Gear 17 comes with three USB 3.1 ports, a USB 4 port which also supports USB-PD, 1 HDMI port, and a DC-in for power.

How Facebook login details of 533 million users reemerge online?

How Facebook login details of 533 million users reemerge online?

The personal data of approximately 533 million Facebook users reemerged online for free on Saturday, including personal information such as full names, phone numbers, Facebook IDs, locations, bios, birth dates, and in some cases, email addresses, according to a Business Insider report. This is a reminder of the company’s ability to collect mountains of information and its struggles in protecting these sensitive assets.

“This is old data that was previously reported on in 2019,” a Facebook spokesperson wrote in an email statement, according to Bloomberg. “We found and fixed this issue in August 2019.”

At the time, the Mark Zuckerberg-led company addressed a flaw in its technology that allowed the information to leak out. However, once such data escape from Facebook’s network and floats into the wide array of the internet, the company has limited power to stop it from spreading online.

Alon Gal, Chief Technology Officer at Hudson Rock, a cybercrime intelligence firm, discovered the data again on Saturday.

Databases, especially if they are large or rare, aren’t often shared widely right away because “the people who hold it will attempt to monetize it for as long as they can,” Gal said in a message on Twitter. “The process sometimes takes years, sometimes days, but eventually all private databases leak if they were sold around.”

Data leaks such as these threaten to undermine Facebook’s business model that involves gathering a large amount of personal data and using that to sell targeted ads.

The information is widely accessible to anyone with rudimentary data skills as it is available for free on a hacking forum, Business Insider said. The publication verified a number of records by pairing known Facebook users’ phone numbers with the IDs listed. Other records were also confirmed by testing email addresses from the data set in Facebook’s password reset feature, which can be used to partially reveal a user’s phone number.

Chinese government seized a cargo-carrying 300 MP 30HX GPUs

Chinese government seized a cargo-carrying 300 MP 30HX GPUs

With the world currently facing the semiconductor crisis, graphics card manufacturer Nvidia has decided to increase its supply to make up for the vacuum in the market. Though it may sound good news for gamers, however, it’s a fact that the heavy-working GPUs are mostly purchased and exploited by hungry crypto-miners. As such, even if the supply is increased, the cards will hardly reach gamers’ hands.

The green team came up with a solution and announced its CMP line of graphics cards dedicated to cryptocurrency mining. And the cards have started to roll out since the first quarter of 2021. To get their hands on the crypto-mining cards, every user has to place an order for them. They are not sold through the retail market.

But, even though the order is made, genuinely, there always will be trouble waiting. According to fresh sources, a batch of 300 CMP 30HX graphics cards headed to mining farms in China has been seized by Hong Kong Customs authorities.

  • NVIDIA CMP HX GPU Series Announcement Chinese government seized a cargo-carrying 300 MP 30HX GPUs
  • NVIDIA CMP 30HX Cryptocurrency Mining Graphics Card Chinese Mining Farm 2 Chinese government seized a cargo-carrying 300 MP 30HX GPUs

The reports suggest that Hong Kong Customs Authorities has seized a total of 300 NVIDIA CMP 30HX graphics cards, labelling them as smuggled units. The cards were reportedly headed to Chinese mining farms.

It is worth reporting that China still has a ban implemented in several provinces against Cryptocurrency mining operations. So, we can only think of that being the case with what just happened. However, it still doesn’t provide any concrete logical reasoning for why the shipment was termed as smuggled units.

The release of the CMP or Crypto Mining Processor lineup is an attempt from Nvidia to stabilise the availability of graphics cards in the market for its gamers while providing the miners with cards designed specifically for them.

Android 12 has a hidden API for search operations using third-party launchers

Google released the Android 12 Developer Preview 2 almost a month ago, and we saw what could be some new features of the upcoming OS version of Google’s Android. There were many new features, including a new search widget that was for Pixel Launcher, which would let the users search for apps and contacts, settings, and more on their device.

However, according to recent sources, some additional information is hidden in the Android 12 preview documentation. According to the documentation, Google is adding a new device search API in Android 12.

The new API will allow third-party launchers to have a universal search feature. As per the developers’ tweet behind the Niagara launcher, this feature will give third-party launchers “Access to the centralized AppSearch index maintained by the system.”

The documentation talks about how the AppSearch index is a search library used to maintain structured data that features the following.

  • A fully offline on-device solution
  • A set of APIs for applications to index documents and retrieve them via full-text search
  • APIs for applications to allow the System to display their content on the system UI surfaces
  • Similarly, APIs for applications allow the System to share its content with other specified applications.

According to sources, the new feature will allow the users to stop using any third-party apps to do a search query. Users will be able to search almost anything on their device from the search bar. However, Google has not officially provided or unveiled any worthwhile information about this new feature, but we expect more information to unfold in the upcoming Android 12 Developer preview.
