The Razer Blade 15 Advanced is the latest and greatest model from Razer, a brand name in the gaming laptop industry.

The best feature of the Razer Blade 15 Advanced is that you can choose between a display with up to 360Hz/FHD resolution or 240Hz (G-SYNC)/QHD resolution. With specs that rival those of gaming monitors, you’ll be able to outperform your competitors.

The specs are also top-notch, with a 10th generation Core i7-10875H paired with GeForce RTX 3080/3070, 16GB/32GB of RAM, and 1TB SSD for internal storage.

Cooling these powerful systems is the Advanced model’s exclusive “vapor chamber” system. The vapor chamber system, exclusive to the Advanced model, efficiently releases heat to the outside through evaporation and condensation of the liquid inside. In addition, as is typical of gaming laptops, the RGB light emission can be customized for each key.

Omron has released the MC-6800B, a sonic thermometer that can transfer measurement data to a smartphone, and is used to measure body temperature, which is the basis of physical condition management.

The MC-6800B looks like an ordinary thermometer that is used between the armpits. However, with its sonic communication function, it can transfer body temperature data to the OMRON connect health management application. The fact that it uses the microphone of your smartphone to transfer data is quite innovative.

With OMRON connect, you can check your daily body temperature on a graph, or output the measurement data to a CSV file and send it via email. This could be used for reporting to your workplace or doctor.

The MC-6800B is scheduled to be released on March 25. With this thermometer, you’ll be less likely to forget the data you took.

The Huawei Mate 20 Pro SIM-free smartphone is now being updated to EMUI 11 (based on Android 10). notification will be sent to users’ devices gradually after December 24, 2020. The company claims that all devices will be able to update in about a month.

EMUI11 is a customized operating system based on Android 10 that includes features to enhance usability and expand the scope of UI and design customization.

The downloadable file size is large at about 4.49GB, so Wi-Fi is recommended. The company also recommends that you run the update with at least 50% of your device’s battery remaining, and that you back up your personal data such as photos, videos, and contacts before running the update. At the time of update, the device must have at least 6GB of free storage space. The version information after the update is as follows.

Microsoft has acknowledged and fixed a bug in Windows 10 that could have caused critical issues on systems running the chkdisk tool. This is a tool that can be crucial in case of issues on the computer’s storage system: it can be run via command line and allows you to check the volumes of a storage device and look for logical or physical errors on file system metadata. By running it on Windows 10 2004 and 20H2, users could have damaged the file system and prevented future access attempts.

The problem, and how to fix it
Microsoft has not yet specified on which Windows versions the problems could occur as a result of running chkdsk, an issue currently reported only on the pages dedicated to updates KB4592438 and KB4586853 released for Windows 10 2004 and 20H2, in December and November respectively. The bug was reported by Günter Born, after Planet3DNow users had already reported it publicly.

Microsoft explains it like this: “It has been reported that on a small number of devices on which this update has been installed, the file system may become corrupted after executing the chkdsk /f command, and the device will no longer boot correctly.” The issue has been fixed according to Microsoft for all unmanaged devices without the need for user intervention, although it may take up to 24 hours before the fix is rolled out to all systems. To speed up the process, you can reboot all potentially affected devices after downloading the above mentioned package.

What to do if your system is already damaged
For those who have already run chkdsk /f on their system, damaging the file system, you can try to restore the boot by performing some basic steps provided by Microsoft. However, it is not certain that the steps will lead to a full restoration of the systems functionality:

After a series of failed boot attempts, the system should be booted into the Recovery Console

From the Recovery Console select Advanced options

Select Command Prompt

Type chkdsk /f followed by the Enter key.

Wait for the storage drive scan to complete. Once complete, type exit followed by the Enter key.

The device should boot up as expected. If the reboot leads to the Recovery Console select Continue – Exit and continue with Windows 10

Once the steps are complete the system should reboot and once again scan the primary storage drive. Once completed the system operation should return to normal.

The integration of Google services with proprietary applications developed by the Mountain View giant continues to grow, and in this case we talk about the arrival of the Google Assistant UI for voice searches within Google Chrome on Android. Until now, in fact, a tap on the microphone icon inside the search Omnibox of Google Chrome involves the activation of the classic voice search UI now known to all, but from today you can activate the new Google Assistant search UI.

A flag is enough to activate the new UI
Available within version 87 of Google Chrome, currently the new voice search with Google Assistant can be activated through the following flag:

Once you enter the above code inside the Google Chrome URL box and choose the “Enable” option, you may notice the Google Assistant UI appearing as the one shown in the GIF below following a browser restart.

Basically, the search results don’t change, but the new interface makes the user experience more homogeneous between the use of Google Assistant at the operating system level and within the web browser. The feature was in the works since January, but only since today you can activate it via the appropriate flag.

If you haven’t already done so, we recommend updating Google Chrome to the latest version available via the Play Store badge below.

 So which mobile OS do you prefer, iOS or Android? Although it is not an official MS opinion, the company’s co-founder Bill Gates revealed that he prefers Android and explained why.

Mr. Gates participated in an interview hosted by CNBC and The New York Times journalist Andrew Ross Sorkin, answering a variety of questions. The venue was Clubhouse, an invitation-only chat service.

Sorkin asked Gates if he uses his iPhone regularly and if he prefers iOS over Android. This was an obvious question, given that the current Clubhouse app is only available for iOS and iPad OS.

Mr. Gates responded, “I actually use an Android smartphone,” and “I like to keep up with everything, so I use an iPhone every so often, but I usually carry an Android.

Sorkin added, “Android versus Apple. Is this a religious thing? Mr. Gates replied, “Some of the Android makers are using MS.

Some of the Android manufacturers pre-install MS software. So I’ve gotten used to it. Many of my friends have iPhones, so I’m not religious

Clubhouse co-founder Paul Davison was also present at the event. Davison told Gates and Sorkin that the Android app is a “top feature” the company is currently working on and that he is very excited about it.

Mr. Gates once recalled that the biggest mistake MS made was not taking the Android market. Steve Ballmer, who was the CEO of MS from 2000-2014 (Windows Mobile to Windows Phone in terms of mobile OS), said, “The iPhone was too expensive. Steve Ballmer, who was the CEO of MS from 2000 to 2014 (Windows Mobile to Windows Phone in terms of mobile OS), regretted his disregard for the iPhone, saying that it was too expensive and would never sell, and Gates may have watched his successor’s missteps with mixed feelings.

Anyway, the fact that Mr. Gates is known to be a fan of Android may hasten the release of the Clubhouse app for Android.

Google has released the first developer preview of its latest mobile operating system, Android 12, on February 18. Check it out to get a glimpse of the upcoming software upgrade, which is scheduled for full release later this year.

Features added in this preview version

This build is not yet in its final form, and more features will be added in the spring and summer. The developer preview includes improved media transcoding, faster notifications, enhanced app testing, and improved security and privacy features.

Google has added media transcoding capabilities to Android 12 to support rich content. Apps that do not support HEVC, the next generation video compression standard, can now easily convert HEVC videos.

In addition, to improve the overall quality of image quality, the AV1 image file format (AVIF) has been introduced, which has a higher compression ratio and dramatically improves image quality compared to JPEG at the same file size. In addition, a new API has been added to allow apps to receive rich content from the clipboard and keyboard, making content easier to share.

Major improvements in notification-related features

One of the highlights of this year’s release is a major improvement in the user interface and functionality of notifications. Google wants to speed up the launch of apps from the notification shade and recommends developers to launch apps directly in Android 12 instead of relying on the “notification trampoline” when launching apps. Android 12 encourages developers to launch apps directly instead of relying on “notification trampolines” when launching apps.

In terms of app compatibility and stability, Google plans to expand support for Project Mainline to provide more tools to help developers optimize their apps for tablets, foldable devices, and Android TV. They are also working on a settings menu that can be switched for all types of debugging.

Finally, to better protect user privacy, Google is adding the ability to control the identifiers used for tracking, improved cookie behavior in WebView, and enhanced security for apps that export activity.

For more information, please visit Google’s Android 12 developer site here. The Android 12 preview is available for anyone with a Pixel smartphone (Pixel 3 or 5) to download and test, and can also be used with the Android Emulator in Android Studio. But please note that it’s not intended for the general public, but for developers and other power users!
