Martin Scorsese is the director who gave us some of the best gangster films not named The Godfather, such as Mean Streets, Goodfellas and Casino. He’s also the man behind Raging Bull, Mean Streets, Gangs of New York and the two films that heavily inspired 2019’s Joker, Taxi Driver and The King of Comedy. The Irishman not only sees the director return to the genre he’s oh so familiar with, but he’s also doing so with actors who helped define the crime/gangster genre in the 70s, 80s and 90s — Robert DeNiro, Joe Pesci and Al Pacino....

According to the MDA, any companies that want to obtain conditional approvals for their self-test kits must have an establishment license under the Medical Device Act 2012. The agency has already planned to put up a list of approved test kits on its website soon. So far, two COVID-19 self-test kits had passed the agency’s technical evaluation and performance testing and will receive conditional approval very soon.

Under the effect of the ban, companies will not be allowed to sell chips made using US tech to Huawei. Companies that wish to do so will have to apply for a special license. According to Reuters, MediaTek has applied for said special license.

As the BBC noted, the price tag for the firm’s acquisition is second only to Microsoft’s purchase of LinkedIn in 2016. Microsoft forked out US$26 billion (~RM105 billion) for the professional networking platform. Microsoft indicated that Nuance’s acquisition was part of its greater push into the healthcare industry. The speech recognition firm makes an array of healthcare-oriented products, like software that helps doctors dictate patient notes and automate radiology reports, the BBC said....

In addition to preventing sites from tracking your online activities and collecting browsing data, the VPN also works with non-secure URLs. It also hides your IP address and location by using a virtual IP address, allowing users to possibly access content blocked in their country although it doesn’t seem that you will be able to choose your own virtual geolocation. [Image: Microsoft]Of course, the free service comes with some major caveats....

For those unfamiliar, Authenticator is a multifactor app for mobile devices that generates time-based codes as part of its Two-Step Verification process.

With the new Autofill feature, users on mobile can now sync all of their login credentials stored on their Microsoft Account and Edge web browser....

In an interview with The Verge, Microsoft chief product officer Panos Panay explained that he envisioned the first-party app store to be a universal location where users can easily find Windows-based apps regardless of rival stores. In a simpler way of explaining this, picture the Microsoft Store as a mall and the various third-party storefronts as the shops within its directory. This would certainly be an added convenience for a lot of users, as it could potentially eliminate the certain steps such as navigating through an app’s website in order to download it – especially for instances such as after a fresh Windows installation....

To quickly cut to the chase, this is all that the Xbox Series X will be packing when it launches: Most of what we see here, we’ve already seen before, but it doesn’t make them any less impressive. Though what’s new here is also the most interesting part, and that’s the storage medium. Internally, it has a custom 1TB NVMe SSD, but it also supports what looks like a proprietary expansion card....

In all honesty, the controller’s design pales in comparison to what DeviantArt artist, BossLogic came up with for a Cyberpunk 2077-themed PlayStation 5 (PS5) DualSense controller. Sure, it’s just a piece of concept art, but you can’t argue that he does make full use of the game’s overarching neon motif to create that over-the-top design. — BossLogic (@Bosslogic) April 13, 2020 The limited edition Cyberpunk 2077 Xbox One controller will reportedly be available on 4 May, several months ahead of the game itself....

That being said, it’s not a feature that is enabled by default. Once you’ve gotten the update, you’ll have to opt in to play with players with each platform.

To be clear, you can only have one feature or the other, but not both in one fitting. If you want the 17.3-inch Full HD display with the 300Hz refresh rate, you will have to be content with just a GeForce RTX 2070 Max-Q GPU. Oh, and it comes with a base NVMe SSD storage of 512GB. That isn’t to say that the display option with the RTX 2080 Super Max-Q isn’t any good either; for that option, you get a 17....
