Champions League 22/23: Spurs steal top spot as Frankfurt make history

The penultimate day of the Champions League group stage saw a number of surprises, including the fate of Group D. All of the clubs had a chance to top the group, but Spurs and Eintracht Frankfurt ultimately made it through. 

The Europa League winners have made history by qualifying for the knockout stages in their very first season in the Champions League. On the other hand, Spurs earned their first win in five away games in the European top flight to go through. 

Champions League 22/23: Massive Group D Drama 

Marseille were completely outplaying Tottenham in the first half of their game at the Velodrome. They were able to get the lead heading into the tunnel as well, with Chancel Mbemba scoring right before the half-time whistle. 

Clement Lenglet equalised for the Premier League club following a free-kick from Ivan Perisic. And in the absolute dying stages of the game, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg was able to find the match-winner to ensure that they finished at the top of the group. 

Eintracht Frankfurt had the same scoreline in their game against Sporting CP. Two second half goals from Daichi Kamada (penalty) and Randal Kolo Muani sealed all three points for the Bundesliga side while their opponents drop down to the Europa League.

India might soon become Third largest Economy in the World

According to a report by the international investment bank Morgan Stanley, India has the makings of an economic boom that will be fueled by investments in manufacturing, the energy transition, and the nation’s cutting-edge digital infrastructure. As a result, India will surpass the United States as the third-largest economy and stock market by the end of this decade, or 2030.

Why This Is India’s Decade examined the trends and regulations influencing the country’s economic prospects. The four global trends—demographics, digitization, decarbonization, and deglobalization—are in favor of the so-called “New India.” It predicted that through the end of this decade, India would be the primary driver of world growth.

According to UDN’s sources, TSMC has dropped these orders by up to 50%, and the decrease came after the fab likewise decreased its investment. The company’s vital position as Taiwan’s largest and most important chipmaker has caused the order reduction to have a ripple effect across the entire chip industry.

Over 25 million homes will certainly fall into the category of households earning more than USD 35,000. As a result of increased household incomes, GDP is predicted to more than double to USD 7.5 trillion by 2031, leading to a boom in discretionary spending and an increase in market capitalization of USD 10 trillion over the next ten years at a compound annual growth rate of 11%.

It predicted that India’s per-capita income will increase from USD 2,278 presently to USD 5,242 in 2031, paving the way for a boom in discretionary spending.

Over the past two years, approximately twice as many global in-house captive centers have opened in India than over the previous four. According to the report, India’s employment in this sector increased from 4.3 million to 5.1 million during the two epidemic years, and the nation’s proportion of the world’s services trade increased by 60 basis points to 4.3%.

According to the analysis, this will have a substantial impact on the demand for both commercial and residential real estate. According to the paper, India’s Aadhaar system, which was created to perform large numbers of low-value transactions at a minimal cost, is the cornerstone ID for all Indians. The research also predicts that by 2031, manufacturing will account for 21% of India’s GDP, creating an additional $1 trillion in manufacturing opportunities.

By 2031, India’s share of the global export market is predicted to more than quadruple to 4.5%, opening up an additional USD 1.2 trillion in export opportunities. Over the following ten years, India’s exports of services will nearly triple to USD 527 billion (from USD 178 billion in 2021).

Apple to roll out 5G software update to its iPhone Users

According to the business, a software update for iPhones would be released the next week to allow 5G capabilities for public beta testing before a wider rollout in December. Apple, the company that makes the iPhone, will meet with representatives from the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) and the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) to inform them about the launch of the public beta.

The iOS 16 beta software program will get 5G functionality from Apple starting next week, allowing customers to test the network’s speed and stability before a wider release in December. On iPhones 12 and later, the iOS 16 beta software update will allow 5G functionality. Customers of Bharti Airtel and Reliance Jio who have an iPhone that is supported can begin experiencing 5G speeds the week after next before it becomes widely available. However, the corporation has not officially announced the rollout’s precise date.

Before the software is made available to the general public, users can test out pre-release versions and use the newest features thanks to the Apple Beta Software Program. Users of the beta version can give Apple input on usability and quality, which aids Apple in locating problems, fixing them, and improving Apple software.

On the iPhone 12, iPhone 13, iPhone 14 series, and the iPhone SE, Apple will activate 5G support (3rd Generation).

The business has been testing 5G services on networks in India that have already gone operational. The iPhone manufacturer previously said that a more comprehensive update to iOS 16 that enables 5G capability would be available in December.

“We are working with our carrier partners in India to bring the best 5G experience to iPhone users as soon as network validation and testing for quality and performance are completed. 5G will be enabled via a software update and will start rolling out to iPhone users in December,” Apple had said in a statement earlier in October.

The government wants 5G phones to be prepared for the high-speed mobile broadband services that telecom service providers will concurrently offer on standalone and non-standalone networks. To ensure an early uptake of the services, government representatives pressed smartphone makers to issue over-the-air updates for all 5G handsets in a meeting with industry stakeholders.

To enable 5G functionality on both Reliance Jio and Bharti Airtel, the majority of Chinese smartphone manufacturers, including Xiaomi, Oppo, Vivo, and Realme, have already released updates for the majority of their models. By the middle of this month, Samsung is anticipated to release software updates.

AMD: TSMC delay might make the chip maker fall behind Intel

AMD: TSMC delay might make the chip maker fall behind Intel

The greatest days for chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (AMD) are over, according to financial firm Northland in an investor note published shortly before the company is scheduled to announce its third-quarter earnings report today. The company’s pre-release, which saw it lower its revenue projection for the quarter due to a slowdown in the personal computer market, will be followed by AMD’s earnings.

As Chinese demand slows and Intel catches up in the technological race, Northland predicts that AMD’s growth will slow down in the future. This slowdown has also hurt other chip companies, including Intel and NVIDIA.

The research note from Northland offers some of the market’s lowest forecasts for AMD because it thinks that the company’s earnings projections for the following year, which AMD will announce in January, will be a crucial thing to pay attention to. According to the research firm, AMD will generate $24 billion in revenue in 2019 and post $2.45 in non-GAAP earnings per share (EPS). This is much less than AMD’s current Wall Street consensus projection of $3.96 EPS and $26 billion in revenue, both of which are $3.96 per share.

According to Northland, a variety of variables are responsible for this decline. The main factor is a slowdown in Chinese business spending due to a decline in demand. Additionally, British design business Arm Ltd. is designing processors, notably for the server sector, which has resulted in AMD losing market share. This fact is supported by the Chinese government’s aim to phase out foreign source technology from its infrastructure by 2025.

Furthermore, it’s thought that Intel is catching up to AMD in terms of transistor development. 

By the second half of next year, according to Northland, Intel will have switched to 4-nanometer transistor technology for its desktop processors, while AMD will be using TSMC’s 5-nanometer devices. The company’s problems are made worse by TSMC’s delays in moving to 3-nanometer manufacturing, which the Taiwanese company has repeatedly denied while reiterating that the process technology is on track and that customer interest in the technology is still high. In a similar vein, it predicts that AMD will switch to 4-nanometer manufacturing in 2024.

In addition, Northland notes that TSMC’s gate all-around (GAA) transistors are the reason Intel’s comparable products are behind them. TSMC will use this new transistor technology in its 2-nanometer products that are scheduled to enter commercial production in 2025. It increases the surface area for the internal components’ ability to conduct electricity. The research company points out that Intel was the first to improve its transistors, first to high-K metal gates and later to FinFET, and that the company is currently led skillfully by Mr. Patrick Gelsinger, its current chief executive officer.

Since the sales for field programmable gate array (FPGA) businesses often arise at the early stages of new technology rollouts, the acquisition of Xilinx will not do much to aid AMD either. Finally, since new game consoles haven’t been released in a while, the majority of expenditure on updates is behind schedule. Due to all of these considerations, Northland reduced AMD’s share price objective from $80 to $60 and changed the stock’s rating from Outperform to Market Perform. Shares of the chip business have lost 60% of their value this year as investor confidence has been undermined by a downturn in the personal computing sector and a challenging macroeconomic climate.

Viacom18 and SA20 announce strategic partnership

Viacom18 to exclusively present South Africa’s premier T20 League in India

Viacom18 Sports, India’s newest sports network, today announced a 10-year partnership to exclusively present SA20, South Africa’s recently launched premier T20 league, in India.

Viacom18 is reshaping sports fans’ experience and building one of the most-loved media platforms in India. The SA20 and Viacom18 will work closely to grow and engage cricket fans in India. South Africa’s strong cricket roots, domestic set-up and popularity of its players with Indian fans will enable SA20 to stand out among other international T20 leagues. South Africa and India have a long and storied cricket relationship that this partnership will further strengthen while bringing high-quality T20 action to Indian fans.

Cricket South Africa (CSA) are leaving no stone unturned to deliver a massively entertaining and competitive show by encouraging all their marquee players to be available for the SA20 tournament.

The league features six teams playing each other twice in a round-robin stage before the semis and final. In all, 33 matches will be played over four weeks starting January 10, 2023. The six teams – Joburg Super Kings, Pretoria Capitals, Durban’s Super Giants, Sunrisers Eastern Cape, Paarl Royals and MI Cape Town, are owned by groups that have teams across various global leagues including the Indian Premier League.

“We continue to offer fans an immersive and engaging experience by strengthening our sports portfolio with some of the best cricket action through SA20,” said Viacom18 Sports CEO Anil Jayaraj. “T20 is the most popular cricket format with Indian fans. The history and legacy of South Africa cricket and the popularity of South African cricketers in India make it a thrilling proposition for cricket fans in India. We expect significant viewership and fan engagement as the event will be played in prime-time.”

“Today is a ground-breaking day for South African cricket. This long-term partnership between the SA20 and Viacom18 as our official Indian broadcaster is a catalyst that supports our ambitions to build the world’s second biggest league,” said SA20 League Commissioner and former South Africa captain Graeme Smith. “With 6 IPL owners expanding their brands in

South Africa, Viacom18 are the perfect partner to take the SA20 into the homes of the passionate and cricket-loving Indian market.”

“The benefits to domestic cricket will be far-reaching with more South African players exposed to a global cricket audience and a stimulus to build a strong and sustainable cricket ecosystem. As SA20, we look forward to working with the dynamic team at Viacom18 to build a world class league,” Smith added.

The inaugural SA20 auction in September saw over 100 players signed by the six teams. Teams could sign up a maximum of ten South Africans and seven overseas cricketers in their squad. For every match, each team will be allowed to have up to four overseas players in the XI. All teams have also opted to sign up one uncapped, young player.

The SA20 will see international superstars like Quinton de Kock, Faf Du Plessis, Kagiso Rabada, David Miller, Anrich Nortje, Rashid Khan, Jos Buttler, Eoin Morgan, Adil Rashid, Jason Roy, Liam Livingstone, Maheesh Theekshana, Jason Holder in action.

Viacom18 recently announced that JioCinema will live-stream all the matches and offer curated content around the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™. The world’s greatest show, the football World Cup which happens once in four years, will be exclusively presented on JioCinema and Sports18 platforms from 20th November through 18th December.

The addition of the SA20 strengthens Viacom18’s portfolio of world-class sporting events, including the Indian Premier League, FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 ™, NBA, Diamond League, LaLiga, Serie A, Ligue 1, and top ATP and BWF events.

Apex Legends Eclipse Season is Now Live with a lot of Goodies

Eclipse, the newest season of Apex Legends, debuted yesterday. The new season—the game’s fifteenth overall—includes, as we’ve already said, the terraforming Legend Catalyst, the brand-new Broken Moon map, gifting, and more. The Laser Eviscerator and Cosmic Cannon reactive charge guns, among other things, are part of the new battle pass, which is also available.

Apex Legends

The Eclipse battle pass has two flavors, just like previous battle passes. The basic edition, which costs 950 Apex Coins (USD 9.50), instantly unlocks the following items and gives users access to the battle pass’s premium rewards:

  • A Deleted Message transition screen
  • Archon Catalyst legend skin (Epic)
  • Shadow Sorcerer Seer legend skin (Epic)
  • Astral Treasure Loba legend skin (Epic)
  • Obsidian Night Havoc weapon skin (Legendary)
  • +10% XP Boost

“As a teenager on Boreas, Tressa Crystal Smith and her coven of friends prayed for and by the light of their broken moon. But fate brought her up to it when she ran away at fifteen to join a terraforming crew working to rebuild the moon. She took to the work, feeling a connection between her work with ferrofluid and the rituals of her past. But the unwelcome arrival of the Apex Games brought her peaceful life to an end. Now she joins the Games as Catalyst, a Legend determined to bring change and defend her home. She can use her ferrofluid to reinforce doors, form piercing spikes, and obscure the playing field with high ferrofluid walls. Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic, and by the time her opponents make the call? It’ll be far too late.”

Passive: Barricade – Reinforce doors, strengthening them and locking them to enemies’ spaces where doors have been destroyed can also be reinforced.
Tactical: Piercing Spikes – Throw out a patch of Ferrofluid which turns into spikes when enemies are near. The catalyst remains immune to enemy spikes.
Ultimate: Dark Veil – Raise a permeable wall of Ferrofluid. Enemies who walk through it will be slowed and partially blinded for a brief time.
New Map: Broken Moon

“The Legends are dropping onto not only a Broken Moon but a divided one. Explore the beauty and serenity of the Eternal Gardens and Bionomics, or venture to the moon’s dark side and visit marred, industrial locales like The Perpetual Core and Breaker Wharf. Grapple, climb, or use jump stations to access new Zip Rails and traverse the jagged terrain. Built for locals to quickly navigate the slopes and chasms of Cleo, they’re just the thing for Legends in a hurry.”

The extended edition of the second battle pass is available for 2,800 Apex Coins (USD 28). With one difference, it is identical to the regular premium battle pass. Players who buy this version of the battle pass will automatically be boosted to Level 25 of the battle pass, providing them immediate access to the first quarter of the battle pass’s contents. For players who are pressed for time or are currently juggling several battles passes from other games while simultaneously keeping up with the Eclipse Battle pass, this is the ideal choice.

The Charge Rifle is getting the reactive weapon treatment regardless of the kind of premium battle pass you select, with two Legendary-tier reactive Charge Rifle weapon skins accessible at levels 100 and 110 of the Eclipse battle pass. Reactive Legendary weapon skins can “evolve” in look as you score kills throughout a fight, which sets them apart from conventional Legendary cosmetics. The weapon skin’s “response” becomes more extravagant as you score more kills, frequently illuminating and/or moving. You can unlock the Laser Eviscerator reactive Charge Rifle at level 100, and if you work hard enough to reach level 110, you can also get the Cosmic Cannon reactive Charge Rifle.

Rangers are now the worst team in the Champions League

Rangers have matched the record for the worst Champions League campaign of all-time. The Scottish side ended their European run with no points, and a goal difference of -20. 

They have equalled the record set by Dinamo Zagreb in 2011, and have only scored two goals in six matches while conceding 22. Their last game in the Champions League ended in a 3-1 defeat against Ajax. 

Rangers match record for the worst Champions League campaign 

There was a slim chance that Rangers could have avoided this unwanted record. And the reason behind that is Viktoria Plzen’s presence in the group of death with Bayern Munich, Barcelona and Inter Milan. 

The Czech Republic side finished with no points as well, but scored two goals against Barcelona in their 4-2 loss. And this reduced their goal difference to -19. Which means that Rangers were rooted to the bottom, with the most goals conceded. 

“We have been doing well in Europe the last three years, but we are still not at the same level as Ajax,” manager Giovanni Van Bronckhorst said. 

“We are developing and that’s the way it is. It is the way the differences are in Europe at the moment.

“If you see Ajax, the players overall are from a higher level, their budget is higher.

“They bought players for £100m. They bought a not bad defender (Calvin Bassey) from us last season.

“We cannot compare ourselves to Ajax but we can compete with them on the day, especially at home at Ibrox.”

Koo Crosses 50 Million Downloads, emerges as the largest Hindi micro-blogging platform in India

India’s multi-lingual microblogging platform, Koo App, clocked 50 million downloads with a large increase in users, time spent, and engagement since January this year. With a high adoption rate in terms of installs and average time spent in the past couple of months, the platform continues to drive digital inclusion among the native language-speaking citizens of India.

Celebrating the milestone, Aprameya Radhakrishna, CEO & Co-founder, Koo App said,“We’re very excited to be crossing the 50 million download mark. This validates the demand for a multi-lingual social network built with an India-first product mindset of seamlessly including language-speaking Indians in daily thoughta sharing. Our rapid growth and adoption is a testimony to the fact that we are solving a problem faced by a billion Indians.”

Currently, Koo is available in 10 languages including Hindi, Marathi, Gujarati, Punjabi, Kannada, Tamil, Telugu, Assamese, Bengali and English. There are more than 7500 eminent voices, millions of students, teachers, entrepreneurs, poets, leaders, writers, artists, actors, etc. actively posting in their native language to celebrate festivals, culture, and rich heritage on Koo App.

Koo Crosses 50 Million Downloads, emerges as the largest Hindi micro-blogging platform in India

Aprameya added, “There is huge potential for further growth. There are about 80 crore Internet users in the country, majority of whom wish to express themselves in their native language. Their sharing of thoughts is restricted to closed groups and known people and are unable to express freely in the open Internet and be discovered. We are proud of our mission of being inclusive and enabling freedom of expression for 90% of native language-speaking Indians. As we move ahead, we will continue to invest in our technology and continue to build the platform with a user-first mindset to further drive digital independence for native language-speaking users in India and across the world.”

Being an inclusive platform that is built around a language-first approach, Koo’s mission is to connect like-minded users in the language of their choice. Features like MLK (Multi-Language Kooing), language keyboard, topics in 10 languages, language translations, edit functionality, and free self-verification, makes the platform unique and provides its users the freedom to engage in meaningful conversations. In the near future, the platform aims to further announce product features as part of its continuous effort to enhance the user experience.
