New MacBook Pro Will No Longer Have Dongle Headache

New MacBook Pro Will No Longer Have Dongle Headache

 



According to recent news, Apple plans to fix MacBook Pro’s dependency on dongles and adapters by introducing more ports to the 2021 MacBook Pro versions.

Older versions have ethernet and an audio socket, and previous MacBook Pros had regular USB 3 ports, HDMI and an SD card reader. With the redesign of the MacBook Pro 2016, Apple cut all previous ports except the headphone jack and provided only several USB-C ports. Five years later, Apple now seems to be backtracking the decision and is looking to add some more ports to the MacBook Pro.

An analyst Ming-Chi Kuo showed that the current 2021 MacBook Pros, as shown by MacRumors, “are packed with more forms of I/O, and most consumers will not have to buy additional dongles.” Since MacBook’s 12-inch launch in 2015, with just one USB-C port, several users have complained about several Mac-based dongles and adapters.

Mark Gurman from Bloomberg has reiterated Kuo’s statement, which describes that 2021 MacBook Pros will feature an SD card reader return. The SD card reader was important for crucial components of the MacBook Pro user base, such as technical photographers and video makers who in recent years had to use the adapters.

Kuo expects new MacBook Pros 14 and 16 inches to launch in the third quarter of 2021 beginning at the end of June.

Apple silicon chips, a higher-contrast, and iPhone 12-styled interface are supposed to be available in the latest versions, but Apple is also replacing Touch Bar and MagSafe in other areas with the return of physical button keys.

Although an entry-level smartphone may not shoot spectacular images, there are no distinctions when it comes to calls and texts.

One of the things that make the Galaxy A52 5G such a terrific phone is its performance. It is fully equipped by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 750G CPU, and Qualcomm’s 7-series has shown to be a viable alternative to Qualcomm’s flagship 8-series. This is paired with either 6GB or 8GB of RAM, which should be sufficient for most users. Furthermore, there is either 128GB or 256GB of storage available, which is more than enough for most people’s files and music.

The smartphone has a quad-camera system that includes a 64-megapixel main camera, a 12MP ultrawide camera, a 5MP macro camera, and a 5MP depth camera. There is no telephoto camera, which is unfortunate, but given the price, it’s difficult to complain.

The camera, which (on paper) is similar to the Pixel 4a, is maybe the most appealing feature. A 12.2MP single-lens camera with all of the same A.I. features as the Pixel 5, an 8MP front-facing camera, and a 16MP ultrawide lens with a 117-degree field of view. However, it is the software that distinguishes these cameras. The 5a 5G excels at low-light photography, with Night Sight automatically activated in dim circumstances. There’s astrophotography for stunning night sky photos, as well as 1080p and 4K video capture at 60 frames per second.

Battery life has improved over the Pixel 4a, with a 4,690mAh battery that should last one and a half to two days on typical use. There is 18W fast wired charging available, but no wireless charging.

Moto G Power



Why should you buy it: The Moto G Power is a steal that appears much more costly than it is, and it has few flaws in this price bracket.

Who it’s for: Anyone looking for a sleek low-cost phone with a large screen.

Why did we choose it: For the past few years, the Moto G family has been our go-to cheap smartphone option.

The Moto G Power has a 6.6-inch display, which is a significant selling point for this phone. Despite the fact that it has a 720p resolution, the lesser resolution should help the battery survive longer — and it still does the job well. Under the hood, there’s a Qualcomm Snapdragon 662 processor with a top version 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage.

The Moto G Power also comes with a triple-lens camera, which has a 48MP main camera with an astonishing f/1.7 aperture, a 2MP macro camera, and a 2MP depth sensor.

Motorola has always provided a very stock software experience, and Moto G Power is no exception. The gadget ships with Android 10, and while Motorola hasn’t made any official statements, we expect it to receive Android 11 in the future.

If you have a strict $200 budget, the Moto G Power will provide you with the best bang for your buck right now. It has a large display, great performance, and a decent camera all wrapped up in a sleek package.


Moto E6



Why should you buy it: The Moto E6 is an extremely affordable smartphone that, while lacking in some areas, gives an acceptable smartphone experience.

Who it’s for: Those looking for a phone that can text, talk, browse the web, and run social networking apps without spending more than $100.

Why did we choose the Moto E6: Because the Moto E6 is Motorola’s most cheap phone, you must accept a few drawbacks. This phone, for example, isn’t set to receive the most recent Android upgrades, and the camera isn’t the best.

There’s a Snapdragon that has a powerful enough processor chip under the hood, so browsing through social media shouldn’t be a problem. There is just 16GB of storage onboard, but a microSD card slot allows you to expand this to 256GB if necessary. On the back, there’s also a headphone jack, but no fingerprint sensor. There’s also no USB-C charging, so you’ll have to make do with a Micro USB port. Running Android 9.0 Pie, the software experience is pretty near to stock Android without a lot of bloatware. NFC is also absent, which means no contactless Google Pay payments, but the E6 does have a useful splash-resistant coating, so it should last rainy days.

There’s a 3,000mAh detachable battery inside, and up to 29 hours of battery life is guaranteed, so it should last the day. The camera is impressive at this pricing point, but it’s absolutely serviceable, featuring a 13MP main camera and a 5MP selfie cam.

This version of the Moto E6 is only available from Verizon, though it is also available via Simple Mobile and Total Wireless.

Judges Disqualify ‘Witch’ From World Record For A Wicked Reason

Judges Disqualify ‘Witch’ From World Record For A Wicked Reason

 


Breaking a world record isn’t easy, but having one taken away from you? That’s a whole lot harder.

Nicola Nuttall of Lancashire, England, decided to run the London Marathon in April in hopes of breaking the Guinness World Record for “Fastest Marathon Dressed as a Witch,” and to raise money for the Alzheimer’s Society, according to The Telegraph. 

Before the race, she sent Guinness officials a photo of her costume — a black, floor-length dress purchased off eBay — and the organization approved. All she had to do was finish the race in less than four hours while wearing full-witch attire, including a witch’s hat and broom. 

When game day came, Nuttall finished the 26.2-mile marathon in just three hours and 31 minutes — an impressive time, even for someone without a costume.

Nuttall seemed set to clinch the world record.

But when Guinness officials reviewed photos of Nuttall during the marathon, they deemed her dress as “substantially shorter” than the one they saw in her pre-race photo submission.

“With costume records, we ask the applicant to submit a photo beforehand of their costume so it can be approved by records management,” a spokesman for Guinness told The Telegraph. “Unfortunately, while Nicola’s pre-marathon photo met our guidelines of having a floor-length dress, her photos from the day show her with a substantially shorter dress with slits cut in for more movement.”

For months, Nuttall argued that Guinness judges had failed to see the high slits that ran up the sides of her dress in her costume submission photo. She said she altered the dress so that it would be harder to run in it.

“Having sent it, they couldn’t see the splits up the side and I actually thought this might make it easier to run in, so I added material to make it more difficult,” Nuttall recently told Pendle Today.

Still, the Guinness judges wouldn’t budge. 

“I feel like I’ve let everybody down. I feel like a failure,” Nuttall said. “I’ve been back and forth to them, but they have been so strict and inflexible.”

Even though she missed out on the world record, Nuttall still raised the equivalent of $2,273 for the Alzheimer’s Society through a crowdfunding page.

Perhaps witches aren’t so wicked after all.

"She was clearly quite excited about it, she told her friends, but after the news about Jack and Emily came out recently the whole thing feels a lot less glamorous.

“It was never a proper relationship, just a good time and some dates together, but now it feels as though he may have been in contact with a number of girls at once and that’s very disappointing for her. She really liked him.”

The footballer is said to have been on dates with actress Emily


Amber, who won 2019’s Love Island, told a pal: “I’d like to get in touch with Emily and find out whether there was any crossover. We’ve met up several times and were messaging a lot. I really thought there was something between us.”

Jack’s off-the-pitch skills are in stark contrast to his efforts for City lately. A loss of form saw him left out for the recent derby with United.



Last week The Sun told how the 26-year-old midfielder and Emily, 31, met at Manchester’s five-star Lowry Hotel on October 18, ahead of City’s Champions League clash with Club Brugge.

A friend told The Sun: “Emily watched Jack in the Euros and thought he was fit. And for his part, Jack has been a fan of hers since she starred as Charlotte ‘Big Jugs’ Hinchcliffe in The Inbetweeners.

“They started DMing on Instagram before swapping numbers, and taking it on to WhatsApp and FaceTime. Jack’s been calling her almost every day and has been pretty open about it. They’ve become really good mates, are FaceTiming loads and he’s like a little puppy dog around her. It’s very sweet. They have a real laugh together.”

He’s intoxicated by Emily’s company. He can’t seem to stay away from her.


Jack has been dating Sasha, 25, on and off for nearly a decade.

She was in the crowd to cheer him on at the European Championship final versus Italy in July.

In September she posted a photo wishing him a happy 26th birthday and celebrating their anniversary.

But in August Jack was spotted on celebrity dating app Raya, prompting questions about their relationship status.

Sasha has confronted Jack over Emily and suggested “It’s me or her”.

Jack has also been in crisis talks with his on-off girlfriend Sasha


A source revealed: “Sasha has been rocked by news of Jack’s secret friendship. She had no idea.

“Jack has apologised to her for any upset caused, and they were due to meet to discuss their future. Jack is really confused. On the one hand, he’s being advised to stay loyal to his childhood sweetheart for all sorts of reasons — commercial and otherwise.

“But on the other, he’s intoxicated by Emily’s company. He can’t seem to stay away from her.

“Plus loads of his club mates have crushes on Emily too so they’re saying something different.

“Obviously there have been gags about Jack’s very own transfer deadline day.”

Now Sasha faces more heartache over his dates with Amber. Representatives for Amber, Jack and Emily declined to comment.

Le Drian : La France Transforme Sa Présence Au Sahel Mais Veut Y Rester

Le Drian : La France Transforme Sa Présence Au Sahel Mais Veut Y Rester

 


La France transforme son « action au Sahel » mais « reste dans le combat contre le terrorisme » sous une autre forme, a indiqué le ministre de l’Europe et des affaires étrangères Jean-Yves Le Drian au cours d’une interview télévisée donnée ce vendredi matin.

« Nous estimons qu’il faut bouger notre modèle » a-t-il plaidé.

Le chef de la diplomatie, qui s’exprimait quelques jours après l’annonce par le président français Emmanuel Macron, de la fin de l’opération Barkhane au Sahel, veut agir « en sahelisant davantage, en européanisant davantage et en internationalisant davantage ».

Il explique que le combat contre le terrorisme doit désormais s’articuler « différemment » parce que « la menace est différente ».

Le Drian considère qu’il faut « renforcer la dynamique antiterroriste de l’action militaire dans le cadre de ce qu’on appelle l’opération Takuba avec les européens ».

Selon lui, ce nouveau modèle d’engagement représente « moins d’ancrage mais plus de muscles ».

Après le retrait des effectifs de Barkhane « il y aura moins de soldats français mais plus de soldats européens » a-t-il poursuivi.

Il rappelle par ailleurs que « la coalition pour le Sahel regroupe 60 partenaires dont le Japon, les Etats-Unis ou les Émirats Arabes Unis ».

Le chef de la diplomatie assure que la fin de Barkhane permet la mise en place « d’un nouveau modèle qui a pour objectif essentiel de lutter contre le terrorisme et d’accompagner les forces de ces pays-là à se structurer, à se moderniser, à se muscler et à être plus performantes dans le cadre de la force conjointe du Sahel ».

Pour rappel, la France déploie toujours actuellement 5 100 effectifs militaires au Sahel dans le cadre de l’opération Barkhane.

Le calendrier de retrait de ces militaires doit être précisé par les autorités dans les prochaines semaines.


La Ministre Des Armées Arrivée Au Mali

La Ministre Des Armées Arrivée Au Mali

 


La ministre française des Armées, Florence Parly, est arrivée au Mali, a annoncé le ministère français dans un communiqué publié mercredi soir.

« Elle effectue ce déplacement avec ses homologues estoniens Kalle Laanet et tchèque Lubomir Metnar, deux pays qui participent à la Task force Takuba », précise le communiqué sans donner plus de détails sur la durée et le programme de sa visite.

« Les trois ministres acteront la pleine capacité opérationnelle de la Task force Takuba étape majeure pour ce regroupement inédit d’unités de forces spéciales européennes au Sahel qui rassemble aujourd’hui des militaires estoniens, tchèques, suédois, italiens et français pour accompagner les forces maliennes dans leurs opérations », indique la même source.

Le communiqué précise, en outre, que la ministre des Armées « profitera de ce déplacement pour rappeler à tous les militaires de l’opération barkhane sa fierté quant à leur engagement face au terrorisme et sa confiance en leur action au quotidien dans des conditions difficiles ».

La visite de la ministre française intervient au lendemain de la publication par l’ONU d’un rapport accablant pour les forces françaises déployées au Mali.

Le rapport d’enquête menée par la mission onusienne au Mali (Minusma) sur une opération menée le 3 janvier dernier par la force Barkahne à Bounti (centre du Mali) révèle, en effet que le bombardement a visé des civils qui assistaient à un mariage tuant 19 parmi eux, contrairement aux affirmations de la France qui dit avoir visé des terroristes.

Réagissant à ce rapport, le ministère français des Armées a remis en cause mardi la véracité des témoignages recueillis dans le cadre de cette enquête et réitéré ses affirmations selon lesquelles le bombardement n’a visé que des terroristes.
