Report Samsung To Showcase Sound On Display Oled Screens At Ces 2019

To be fair, CES 2019 won’t be the first time Samsung will demonstrate the technology. Back in May, the brand showcased a fully working demo unit of the technology during the SID Display Week. According to Samsung, the technology uses a combination of bone conduction technology and vibration made from beneath the display. It apparently provides Samsung even more leeway with the display size. If the idea of having sound outputted directly through a display sounds familiar, it’s because Samsung isn’t the first company to actually showcase the technology....

Revil Ransomware Now Able To Change Windows Passwords And Automate File Encryption In Safe Mode

According to Bleeping Computer, the update was reportedly added in an effort to help these actors evade detection and to shut off backup software and database servers when encrypting the target’s files. Breaking down the update further, the new REvil ransomware reportedly changes the user’s password to “DTrump4ever” when the -smode argument is used. As dastardly as this ransomware is, the silver lining in all this is that the affected person would still need to manually log in to Windows Safe Mode before the encryption can occur, and that alone could tip off the victim to the ransomware’s actions....

Robocop Rogue City Gets Gameplay Trailer June 2023 Release Window

From the trailer, the key takeaway here looks to be that RoboCop: Rogue City will be a first-person shooter. Certain cinematic cutscenes show the RoboCop himself, but for the most part the game looks to put the player in his perspective. There’s one scene that shows grappling of some form, another that shows a melee attack in the form of a punch. But beyond that, the trailer mostly shows the Auto-9, his signature handgun, in action....

Samsung Mobile Business Declines Reported Net Profit Below Expectations

Samsung’s mobile business sales dropped by 11% in Q4 2020, reported CNET. And while the firm as a whole remains in the black – registering 6.45 trillion won (~RM23.3 billion) in net profit – Bloomberg said the quarterly figure was below the 7.3 trillion won (~RM26.3 billion) average of estimates it compiled. Samsung attributed its less-than-spectacular results to a stronger won, which hurt its exports. On the mobile front, the company blamed the decline on “intensifying competition and higher marketing expenses,” but was quick to point out that it still kept a double-digit profit margin....

Selangkah Creator Says App Is Scientifically Considered Effective For Covid 19 Contact Tracing

Dr Helmi Zakariah, who created SELangkah, cited a study by Oxford University that says “an e-tracing ecosystem is considered effective when 60% of the population uses it”. And since 95% of the Selangor population of 6.2 million uses it, the app passes the threshold of being a scientifically useful e-tracing ecosystem. Dr Helmi also said that business premises that make use of the SELangkah contact tracing app became surveillance spots for public health workers....
