Russia vetoes UN vote to halt arms race in space
The US has warned that Russia is believed to be developing a space-based, anti-satellite nuclear weapon.
Russia said it was “firmly committed” to the existing treaty.
The draft presented on Wednesday “calls on all states – especially those with significant space capabilities – to actively contribute to the goal of peaceful uses of outer space and the prevention of an arms race in outer space.”
It also calls on countries to abide by the Outer Space Treaty, which requires all countries to “not place in Earth orbit any objects containing nuclear weapons or other weapons of mass destruction.”
Of the 15 Council members, 13 voted in favor, Russia, one of the five permanent members with veto power, voted against and China abstained.
US Ambassador to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield called the move “puzzling”.
“Russia vetoed a simple resolution confirming a legally binding commitment,” she said. “President V. Putin himself has publicly stated that Russia does not intend to deploy nuclear weapons in space. Therefore, today’s veto begs the question, why? If you support the rules, why don’t you support a resolution to approve them? What can you hide?’,
meteorites disappear with climate change
When we think of Antarctica and climate change, we first think of melting ice and rising sea levels. However, this polar region is not only home to penguins, but also entire fields of meteorites. If the ice melts, the space stones will literally sink below the surface and therefore disappear from our sight and reach. How can we estimate the extent of this phenomenon? Depending on the scenario considered, a new study reveals that between 25 and 75% of meteorites are expected to disappear and this process has already begun. Explanations with Harry Zekollari, climatologist, associate professor at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel and co-author of this study published in Nature Climate Change.

Samsung Electronics Considering Customized AOD Support for GoodLock LockStar Module
- April 26, 2024
- No Comments
Sam Mobile, a foreign media, reported on the 25th (local time) that Samsung Electronics is considering supporting customized AOD (always-on display) in the GoodLock LockStar module of the system UI customization app.
The Rockstar module offers the ability to select the background image and clock style to use on the lock screen, and the type of information to display on the lock screen, but does not yet support the ability to customize the AOD to full screen of the Galaxy S24 series.
In this regard, a representative from Samsung Electronics Good Lock stated through the official community: “Currently, Rockstar does not support custom AOD for the Galaxy S24 series, but we are reviewing the support internally.”
A Samsung official didn’t specifically mention the timing of support, but SamMobile predicted that “support should be available within the next few weeks.” Meanwhile, Samsung also plans to fix some bugs, such as the AOD icon design issue reported in the Rockstar module.
Switch 2 Rumors May Release in 2024, Controllers Get Magnetic Mounts
#Switch #Rumors #Release #Controllers #Magnetic #Mounts
And an OLED version is allegedly in the works.
There have been several new rumors surrounding Nintendo’s next console, “Switch 2” as it may be called.
The first claims that the console could be released in the second half of 2024. This contrasts with several other recent claims that claim that Nintendo is waiting until early 2025 to build a steady catalog of game releases. The 2024 claim comes from The X account OreXda, which according to Wccftech previously leaked Samsung-related data. It is also claimed that both LCD and OLED variants are in the works, but that the latter will possibly be released later.
In the second charge rumors say sources in Spanish Vandal (translation) that the Switch 2 will be bigger than the Switch but smaller than the Steam Deck. Previous rumors have said that the Switch 2 screen will be 8 inches, thus larger than the Deck’s 7.4 inches.
Furthermore, the Switch 2 should have Joy-Con controllers, but these are attached with magnets instead of rails as with the Switch.
Motorola Edge 50 Pro Review: Is It Worth the Hype?
This in itself is a bit cliche, but it is still true; it is increasingly difficult for smartphone manufacturers to make devices that really stand out and can communicate and impress upon consumers that their particular products are more popular than before never great.
Take Motorola’s Edge 50 Pro, for example. It costs around £600 and has just been launched. For the same money, you can pretty much buy a Pixel 8, Nothing Phone 2, OnePlus 12R, or several other things that compromise here and there but all of them offer a very solid overall experience for a lot less than the more expensive flagship products.
Motorola has a habit of spending a little more, but is that the case this time? First, it’s worth mentioning that while you get two beautiful vegan leather backs in the Black Beauty and Luxe Lavender, we got the slightly weird MoonLight Pearl, which is said to be handmade in Italy by Mazzucchelli . It looks a bit like marble but it feels like plywood in the hand – avoid this one and buy another one.
Otherwise, Motorola didn’t take any big risks with the design this time.
Fallout 4s Popularity Surges with Next-Gen Update and Amazon Prime TV Show
Over the span of eight years, Fallout 4 has managed to maintain its popularity in the gaming world. This surge in interest can be attributed, in part, to Amazon Prime Video’s TV show adaptation of the beloved video game franchise. Additionally, Bethesda Game Studios recently released a next-generation update for Fallout 4—a post-apocalyptic RPG initially launched in 2015. A prominent feature of this update involves enhanced visuals on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S platforms.
GameSpot has put together a comparison video showcasing Fallout 4’s performance on Xbox Series X both before and after receiving the next-gen update within Quality Mode. The most noticeable difference between these two versions lies in their respective frame rates. Even with the Quality Mode enabled following the update, players can still observe significant improvements. Furthermore, Performance Mode is also available as an option for players seeking additional optimization features. Aside from this disparity in frame rates, there appears to be little distinction concerning visual fidelity between versions.
One notable inclusion within the Fallout 4 next-gen update involves additional Creation Club content introduced into the game’s immersive world. Players now have access to an intriguing new quest titled “Echoes of the Past,” which focuses on expanding upon Massachusetts’ Enclave faction storyline.
Compact camera vs smartphone
If one delights in nice marketing phrases, the two authors must have experienced happiness in a double pack. Legendary moments, classic colors and a legacy of elegance, unique and impressive. We were traveling with two Leicas. One with the smartphone 14 Ultra from the Chinese manufacturer Xiaomi, which uses a quadruple camera system from Leica and bears the proud name Summilux for the particularly fast lenses from the German manufacturer. The other had an original from Wetzlar in his hand, the Leica Q3 compact camera with a full-format sensor and a built-in 28-millimeter lens with a spectacular aperture of 1:1.7.
