Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 Carbon Hands On Ryzen Takes Up Yoga

Before we begin, I should point out that the unit seen here is an engineering unit, so it should be assumed that the final product may ship out with slightly different features. With that in mind, let’s continue. Like all Yoga laptops, the Slim 7 Carbon doesn’t stray from in terms of aesthetics; it adheres to the same thin-and-light mantra that has long been the philosophy of the laptop series....

Malaysian Gamers Spent Rm2 7 Billion On Games Last Year

The first is that we spent about US$673 million (~RM2.7 billion) on games last year. This makes us one of the biggest gaming markets in Southeast Asia, but Newzoo stopped short of an exact ranking number. Unsurprisingly, most of the urban online population are gamers, but it’s unclear if this also means that most gamers reside in the urban areas. Also unsurprisingly, the mobile platform is the most popular among Malaysians, with 75% of gamers playing on mobile devices....

Men In Black International Destroyed At The Box Office Dark Phoenix Downward Trend Continues

The Men in Black spinoff starring Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson fell flat at the box office over the weekend, only raking in approximately $US 28 million in North America. That my friend is less than what the original Men in Black amassed in its opening weekend 22 years ago — $US 51 million. Which proves that the movie-going masses aren’t remotely interested in this franchise anymore. Much like Dark Phoenix last week, the film did slightly better outside of North America, but even then, it’s nothing to really scream about....

Miners Successfully Hack Through Mining Restrictions For Nvidia Geforce Rtx 3060

As the saying goes, life isn’t fair, and unsurprisingly, the so-called “mining restriction” that was put in place by NVIDIA has reportedly been broken by the very same miners. Japan-based tech site, PC Watch, confirmed that NVIDIA’s restrictions had already been “circumvented” via interaction with related parties. The specific method isn’t mentioned by PC Watch, but the site states that bypassing the RTX 3060 restrictions does not require any modification to the card’s driver of BIOS, and a “little effort” is all it takes to get it to mine....
