TechNews - Microsoft Shows Off Radical New UI - tech|
| (hx) 02:50 AM CET - Feb,28 2011 |
- Samsung talks about 20nm chips, tests in 2011 - Moore's
Law states that the density of a chip will double approximately every
two years. Samsung has declared that the law is not slowing down to a
halt for the company, disclosing details regarding the roll-out of
20nm process technology, which will enable the transistor
count to roughly double yet again.
- GIGABYTE shipping new B3 P67 and H67 motherboards,
available as early as this week - GIGABYTE has announced on Friday
that they have begun shipping motherboards with the new B3-stepping
Intel P67 and H67 Express chipsets. The products are expected to be
available as early as this week, when shipments start to clear customs
in markets around the world.
- MSI annouces exchange procedures for P67 and H67
motherboards - MSI has announced it is now ready to swap
faulty B2-stepping Intel P67 and H67 motherboards with revised
B3-stepping ones. Users can either register online for an exchange and
wait for MSI's go-ahead for a swap, or wait till the end of March for a
walk-in exchange at the store the board was purchased from.
- Microsoft Shows Off Radical New UI, Could be Used
in Windows 8 - In a three and a half minute video, Microsoft
may have shown the world what it has in store for the eagerly awaited
Windows 8.
In the video Microsoft showed a radically different interface from past
versions of Windows -- even Windows 7. Running on Surface 2, the
touch-screen successor to the original Microsoft Surface, the device
accepts input from a Windows Phone 7 handset (HTC HD7). Gone are the
icons that drive Windows, OS X, and Linux operating systems of past and
present. In their place are "bubbles" that interacted with files and
post streaming information off the internet.
- PC Perspective Podcast #143 - This
week they talk about AMD's response
to the Sandy Bridge bug, the Vertex 3 Pro SATA 6G SSD, ECS P67H2-A
motherboard, OnLive micro console, Bulldozer details and much more!
- Bloomberg Launching Daily Live Tech TV - Beginning
Monday, Bloomberg West debuts on the air to 250
million people around the world. The daily news show will
focus on technology, innovation and business topics.
- Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack
1 Released - Everything went smooth and I haven't encountered
any issue (manual download link).
As I reported last week, SP1 only contains two major new features,
which will not affect the majority of users. The first of the two is
RemoteFX, a standalone product that requires Windows Server 2008 R2 to
be used. RemoteFX allows users to watch high-quality video and interact
with 3D applications over a remote desktop session -- this will change
the way Virtual Machines are used, as they have had limited display
capabilities until now. The second feature is an update for HyperV in
Windows Server 2008 R2 called "Dynamic Memory". The feature is as
simple as it sounds -- it dynamically allocates memory to virtual
machines as required and is able to remove memory from virtual machines
when others need higher resources.
- Firefox 4 Beta 12 Build
Released - Get it while it's hot. The 12th version of beta has been
released and confirmed to be the last beta prior to the introduction of
the release candidate:
- Hacking: How to get free
internet access - Traveler demonstrates just how
easy it is to get free internet access in any city or
neighborhood! Enjoy!
- iPad 2 Confirmed By Apple - Apple email sent out to media agencies
to attend the March 2nd event of a new tablet is nothing but revealing.
The next-generation Apple iPad, which were calling the iPad 2 will most
likely have the following features and specifications; 10.1-inch retina
display, A5 processor at 1.5Ghz with dual-core configurations, one
camera for sure, with the possibility of dual cameras, and of course
1080p. Cost should be relatively the same as what we see now.
- Next Up: iPhone 5 - Next week Apple
will spill the beans on the iPad 2, which can only mean one thing: It's
time to start focusing on the iPhone 5 -- which
will (probably) be announced in June 2011. iPhone 5's digitizer
panel?Like clockwork, 9 to 5 Mac on Friday uncovered a photo from a
Chinese reseller of Apple parts that will get that process under way.
The site suggests the unconfirmed part could be the digitizer panel for
the next iPhone. Interestingly enough, the part appears to have a
larger cutout section for a screen which could support earlier reports
from DigiTimes that the new model will feature a four-inch display to
compete with some Android devices.
- LifeProof Case for iPhone 4 Offers Military Spec
Ruggedness - The idea is to provide military spec protection
in a case that doesn't look all that bulky. In fact, the
LifeProof case ($69.99) only adds 1.3mm of thickness
to your iPhone 4. That's no worse than the many non-military spec'd
cases out there, but it's obviously not as thin as something like
Invisible Shield by Zagg. As a rough and tumble case, the LifeProof
case can submerge in up to 6.6 feet of water. It'll also stand up to to
dust, dirt, snow, six foot drops, and all sorts of other abuse.
- Tiny Wings - Official Gameplay Trailer
(iPhone/iPad) - A
new challenger to Angry Birds was launched quietly last week
and is topping out the download list this week.
- Mazda takes the MX-5 to the ice (video) - Mazda
just wrapped up a four-hour race in Are, Sweden, that brought
20 MX-5 roadsters out on the open ice for a little fender-to-fender
action. Teams faced temperatures that dipped as low as -24 degrees
Fahrenheit and stiff competition from racers from around the world.
- Guess What I Just Saw Going Down The Street? - A
bunch of geese running down the street! Woot!
- Imagine getting a SMS and a photo-realistic head
pops up on your - check
it out
- Vietnam wants to block online games after 10PM - As
with most Asian nations, online gaming tends to be a lot more popular
than here, and it tends to get a lot more youngsters addicted as well.
Which is why the Government of Vietnam is demanding all ISPs operating
in the country to implement an Internet curfew of sorts, where all
online gaming is blocked after 10PM which lasts until 8AM the following
morning, each day of the week.
- BATTLE: LOS ANGELES - In Theaters 3.11.11 - check
it out
- They're Back - First Teaser Trailer for 'The
Hangover Part II' - In
the sequel to The Hangover,
Phil, Stu, Alan and Doug visit Bangkok, Thailand for Stu's wedding. I'm
looking forward to seeing more of the trouble they get in to and the
chaos they cause, as I'm sure that will be the good stuff. The Hangover
Part II arrives in theaters on May 26th this summer!
- Genevieve Morton makes US Sports Illustrated
Swimsuit 2011 - Genevieve
Morton, 24,
hails from Benoni, South Africa, and her friends call her Little Miss
Sunshine. She has been the face of Guess watches, and has appeared in
Greece Vogue and South African Sports Illustrated. This is Genevieve's
second U.S appearance in the Swimsuit Issue.
- Adriana Lima is a Natural Wonder for Victoria's
Secret - How about more shots of the sultry Brazilian
beauty in Victoria's Secret lingerie?
- Can Brooklyn Decker Make the Switch from Modeling
to Acting? - 2010 SI cover girl Brooklyn Decker
is currently being seen on the screen in the hit comedy 'Just Go With
It,' but that doesn't mean she can automatically make the transition
from supermodel to actress. Of course, the fact that she's drop-dead
gorgeous doesn't hurt!

| Koogle | (06:20 AM CET - Feb,28 2011 ) | re Microscum radical shit ass NUI computer direction...
"Move the computers away from tool to a helper".... yeah that helps you become more in sync with what they want to be, brainwashed mentally handicap suckers reliant on poor 'helpers' that do more collecting about you and wasting your time, than being at all useful to you.
To me the direction is all about making dumbification a good thing and hooking people on shit they don't really need in their lives, one because it isn't at all better than what is already possible. It pretty much shows in everything Microsoft does in marketing/selling, now they are just trying to change the game by testing the waters and starting new eco system from which to sell to suckers. If they can sell 'Less is more' to the public, then its less work for them. Just look at IE9 as a browser.. its a pathetic joke compared to the rich user experience someone can get with Firefox as very easily customizable and extensible browser platform. (At least it still is, the amount of code functionality stripping is becoming stupid, FF 4.1 might have to chuck out the bookmarks sidebar and tell you to go use some social bookmarking site and view it in tab :P )
These futurist interfaces generally seem to be a joke, its like looking at sci-fi games and movies where computer displays, where they look like targeted app use only information kiosks with limited access in functionality, color representation is usually all same hue, more power point presentational than they can ever be functional. To think you're in getting more control/oversight/management over data/whatever it is, is stupid.
p.s the gui reminds me of game called Osmos. Basically get BIGGER, only here its not really the user that benefits, its a company called Microscum who suck the life, data and money out of foolish people and businesses, who really aren't thinking at all they are being manipulated, otherwise they'd see what is really going on and why they shouldn't want this direction in cloud computing and social collectivism, it only benefits corrupt government and corporate fascists who want you more connected but in a humanly disconnected sort of way.
"Vietnam wants to block online games after 10PM " looks like another government nanny state is parent, more than parents themselves heck they're probably in modern wage slavery thanks to their corrupt government anyway, fuck no wonder their kids are taking to nomadic gaming realities.... fucking societies don't do shit about cretinous control freak dictators, more likely to want to be one themselves.
@LifeProof ...UpgradeProof? :P |
