The Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Ministry (KPDNHEP) said that the move was to ensure that non-medical face masks, whether produced locally or imported, comply with the set safety standards. “The MS SIRIM label must be placed on the boxes or packages and are easily visible to consumers,” said the ministry, as the label is an indication of quality. KPDNHEP also hopes that compliance with standards by manufacturers and importers would solve the issue of dumping poor-quality masks in the local market....

Resizable BAR isn’t a new or groundbreaking feature, by any measure of the word. The feature has been around since the 2nd generation of the PCIe interface and rarely saw expanded use outside of the Linux and server communities. It wasn’t until AMD announced its own take of the feature during the launch of its Radeon RX 6000 series graphics cards last year. the company calls it Smart Access Memory (SAM) but unlike Resizable BAR, the feature technically only work if a Radeon RX 6000 series GPU is paired with one of its Ryzen 5000 series CPUs....

The Dogecoin “promotion” was clearly the work of hackers who had managed to successfully take over the NVIDIA Taiwan account. As for how this happened, the answer is actually simpler than you’d imagine: the account had actually been dormant and inactive since 2019, and actually produced little or next to no engagement with its intended crowd. For sites that are constantly keeping tabs on such accounts, you can imagine their surprise when the NVIDIA Taiwan account suddenly popped back up on their radar, only to be greeted by a promotion for what was effectively the third most popular cryptocoin at its height....

As you may expect from its name, the OCBC Kill Switch would immediately stop any outgoing transaction from being performed once activated. Among such transactions includes cash withdrawals, recurring charges & standing instructions, fund transfers, and bill & loan payments.

In terms of performance, the OV64B can be compared to the ISOCELL Bright GW1 by Samsung, which is also a 64MP sensor. Both sensors use a Quad Bayer filter array to capture pixel-binned 16MP images in low-light conditions, or filtered 64MP images in well-lit environments. The only notable difference is that the ISOCELL is larger in physical size when compared to the OmniVision OV64B. For videos, the new sensor allows recordings for 8K/30p video, 4K/60p, or 4K/30 with electronic image stabilisation....

Speaking to The Verge, the company has confirmed a recent rumour about its iconic alert slider. As many have suspected, the 10T will ship out without the mute switch on the side, a feature that has long been prominent on OnePlus flagships.

And they all seem to be very obscure games at that, making them no big losses for prospective PS5 owners. Probably the best known among them is Hitman Go: Definitive Edition. And it’s not that huge a loss either. Besides improved graphics, there’s no difference between this and the mobile versions of the game. It seems a waste to play such a game on the PS5, and it’s one of the rare cases where the game is better suited for phones than a full on console....

Just in case you missed it, here’s a quick recap of the Find X3 Pro’s specifications: The new OPPO flagship sports a 6.7-inch curved AMOLED QHD+ display with an adaptive refresh rate of up to 120Hz.

According to Minister of Health Khairy Jamaluddin, travellers who want to take advantage of this policy must show proof of lab results that they have been infected by the virus between 11 and 60 days before their departure, on top of providing their vaccination certificates. Those who meet the requirements will be allowed to enter the country without quarantining, provided they test negative for their on-arrival RTK-Ag test. Additionally, those who were hospitalised during their infection must acquire a “fit to travel” certificate from the hospital, while those who self-isolated in their homes or hotels must do a professionally-administered RTK-Ag test two days before departure and must have a negative test result....

According to FMT, the minister also said that as of 5 June, he number of COVID-19 patients that have recovered following the Paxlovid treatment has gone up to 1364. As before, no side effects were detected among said patients.

Sources to VGC claim that Sony will launch the PS5 after Microsoft launches the Xbox Series X. They claim that the company has “booked significant marketing spend” for the week starting Friday, 13 November. This is in contrast to Microsoft that will be launching the Xbox Series X at the end of the first week of November. The company previously said that it planned to launch its next-gen console in November....

In the updated PlayStation Blog post, SIE says that the first region to get the new tiered PS Plus subscription is Asia. The company is targeting 23 May for the rollout in the region. This is then followed by its own home market of Japan on 1 June, then the US on 13 June, and finally Europe on 22 June. While it’s surprising that Asia, of all the regions, will be getting the new PS Plus tiers early, it makes some sense when consider we didn’t get the PS Now streaming service before....

The name of the car is the Porsche Vision Gran Turismo, an all-electric concept car. According to GamesBeat, it has futuristic features that would only work in a video game. Its designers spend about three years coming up with its look, “as if they were making a real car”. The front of the Porsche Vision Gran Turismo certainly looks outlandish, like you’d expect from the average concept car. But if you’ve played your worth of racing games, the back will be immediately recognisable, with a silhouette reminiscent of the by now very old Carrera GT or the newer 918 Spyder....
