All Apple’s efforts seem to be failing. There is a continuous decline in iPhone sales in China. Apple used to be the most sold smartphone in the Chinese market. But in the last one year, Apple has slipped from the first position to the 5th position. In such a situation, there is a fear whether Apple will be out of the top 5 smartphone brands in China in the coming days.
Apple will be out of top 5
If this happens, it will be very difficult for the company. Because Apple’s CEO visited China amid falling smartphone sales and announced the opening of new Apple stores in China. Along with this, Apple is giving many discount offers to increase iPhone sales in China, but it does not seem to be beneficial.
What was the reason for Apple’s weak demand?
According to the report, for the first time in the last four years, there has been a decline in iPhone sales in China. iPhone is facing tough competition from Chinese brands like Huawei. This is the reason why iPhone sales are continuously declining. Although Apple is the world’s largest smartphone company, Apple 1 has slipped from the first to the fifth position.
Fallout: London delayed due to (very late) next-gen update of Fallout 4
While the launch date of Fallout: London had finally been set for April 23 (because Saint George’s Day and 1st day in the “game”), the decision by Bethesda to publish – after 2 years of delay – the update “next-gen” day for Fallout4 forces Team FOLON to postpone the deadline at the last minute. For what ? Quite simply, because like every Fallout update, the version number of the game changes and therefore, an update of the Fallout 4 Script Extender (F4SE) is required. However, F4SE is an essential component for many mods, especially those modifying the game in depth, like this one.
In other words, publish Fallout: London two days before the Fallout 4 “next-gen” update (which in reality has nothing next-gen, since it is above all a slight adaptation of Fallout 4 to existing hardware and again, without the shadow of DLSS or FSR or raytracing) would make no sense, because the mod would be unusable 48 hours later. A potential frustration for players that the independent developers of Fallout: London obviously want to spare them and that is to their credit. And like F4SE is maintained by a third party, well, they have no choice but to wait until the necessary thing is done.

Index Culture Sofia Coppola has joined the ranks of the beauty stars
#Index #Culture #Sofia #Coppola #joined #ranks #beauty #stars
Sofia Coppola might not be the first thing that comes to mind when you think of film industry beauty ambassadors or perfume inventors. Francis Ford Coppola’s daughter is already 52 years old, and her appearance and work style are clean, self-conscious, and up to date with trends.
That’s why it’s interesting that she has now joined the ranks of stars who don’t work in the beauty industry, but add their name to a product.
The director is with the Augustinus Bader brand, which launches luxury beauty care products cooperatedto delight her fellow women with a series of lip balms in spring colors.
Augustinus Bader has been a fan of stars since 2018, Victoria Beckham, Hailey Bieber, Margot Robbie, just to name a few. And of course the Priscilla directed by Sofia Coppola.
She has already used the company’s colorless lip care products. His own creations were called Shade. Shade 1 looks like a deep pink lipstick, brightens the color of the lips and gives it a subtle shade.
New Method to Measure Global River Water Flow Revealed by NASA Study
Scientists have designed a new method to measure how much water, in total, flows through all the rivers on Earth. The new methodology provides data that could be vital for the future.
A new study by NASA shows the current amount of water in rivers around the world. Not only that; the same research shows how much water flows through to the ocean and how much water is ‘reserved’ by rivers in the end. After that, the scientists even made it possible to see how these values changed over time. The research shows which areas are most affected by the use of heavy rain – and which areas are getting off mercifully.
Scientist Cédric David contributed to the research. He says: “In recent years, many scientists have tried to measure individual rivers, often looking at the amount of water that ends up in the ocean at the the end However, there are hardly any studies that look at the total water volume of all the rivers together. Before we can properly manage water, we must first know how much water is available in total. Before that, the situation was a bit like spending money without knowing how much was in the account.
Revolutionizing AI: Scientists Develop Thinking Device with Water and Salt
Researchers have made a significant stride in the development of artificial brain cells with the creation of an “iontronic memristor” that mimics a synapse, the connection point between neurons.
An international collaboration between Utrecht University in the Netherlands and Sogang University in South Korea has successfully engineered artificial neurological junctions that replicate synapses using a basic water and salt solution. This breakthrough is a major advancement in the quest to build sophisticated computers that can match the processing power of the human brain. Led by Tim Kamsma from Utrecht University, the project has effectively created an artificial synapse, laying the groundwork for brain-like computers.
What sets the iontronic memristor apart from previous attempts at emulating the brain is its unique approach to replicating the brain’s essential process of utilizing ions for information transmission. This device features a cone-shaped microfluidic channel filled with a saltwater solution, in contrast to traditional methods that rely on silicon and metal components.
While conventional computers rely on solid-state materials, the human brain operates using a watery solution of ions for processing information. The breakthrough in iontronic memristors signals a new era of computers that function similarly to the human brain.
Chinas Cape Canaveral is booming, fueled by lunar mission and space program
Hainan Island, known as the “Hawaii of China,” is attracting tourists from all over the country for more than just its sandy beaches and mild climate. The city of Wenchang, home to a rocket launch center, is becoming a popular destination for space enthusiasts.
Inspired by Florida’s Cape Canaveral, China has made efforts to develop tourism in Wenchang, drawing visitors with an interest in space-related travel. The Hilton Wenchang, a hotel in the area, is decked out with space-themed decor and offers special aerospace-inspired experiences, such as a space-themed afternoon tea.
Visitors to Wenchang can also enjoy rocket designs hanging from lampposts, displays of Chinese spaceships, and even rocket-shaped bottled water. The growth of China’s space program has boosted interest in aeronautics, with room rates at the Hilton Wenchang skyrocketing during rocket launches.
The space program has not only boosted tourism in Wenchang but also increased national pride in China. Families gather on the beach to watch rocket launches, sparking children’s interest in science and technology. The country is also diversifying its tourism offerings in Hainan, with a Hello Kitty-themed resort and park set to open in 2025.
With Hainan being visa-free for residents of over 50 countries,
Experts: There is enough water in the moons polar craters to support expeditions
India – The results of research conducted by the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) indicate that there is a high probability of water ice forming in the polar craters of the Moon.
The organization’s statement published on its website stated: “Recent studies have discovered evidence that there is a high possibility of water ice forming in the polar craters of the Moon. The amount of ice present at a depth of a few meters is about 5-8 times greater than what is present on the surface at both poles.”
He adds: “Therefore, drilling on the Moon to sample or extract this ice will be of utmost importance for future missions and human existence in the long term.”
According to these data, the area of water ice at the North Pole of the Moon is twice as large as at its South Pole. The study also confirms the hypothesis that the main source of subsurface water ice at the poles of the Moon was the release of gas during volcanic activity during the Embryonic period (a geological period in the history of the Moon).
It is noteworthy that, in addition to the experts of the Indian Space Research Organization,
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang wakes up at 6 a.m. and works 14 hours a day
Mr. Jensen Huang’s 14-hour work day starts at 6 am. He often eats in the company kitchen to connect with employees and “manage the culture”.
What’s it like running a $2 trillion company? Just ask Jensen Huang. Last week, the founder and CEO of Nvidia shared that he usually wakes up at 6 a.m. and starts a new day by exercising before working 14 hours a day.
Bloomberg ranked him the 20th richest person in the world with an estimated net worth of $73 billion, up $29 billion since the beginning of the year. However, being rich is also a burden. At the 2023 New York Times DealBook Summit, he said: “I don’t wake up proud and confident but with anxiety.”
That’s because Nvidia nearly went bankrupt in the late 1990s, a memory he says is hard to shake. However, the company is now worth more than $2 trillion, behind only Microsoft and Apple, driven by demand for chips needed for AI applications.

Mr. Huang also has very high standards. In a recent interview with “60 Mi nutes,” he admitted it himself “demanding,
