Speaking to reporters, SLC CEO Ashley De Silva revealed the news of the overhaul of the complete coaching set up in Sri Lanka cricket. However, reports suggest that Flower will only coach the limited-overs team and won’t be traveling to Pakistan for the Test tour in December. Mickey endured mixed fortunes as Pakistan’s coach, where he helped them become the top-ranked Test and T20I side and also beat India in the finals of the 2017 Champions Trophy in England....

The pros: The biggest pro of the Superfone A80 Infinity, hands down, is its awesome battery. In an age where every company is making touchscreen phones, its long battery life is sure to render a huge advantage over many other Android phones in the market. Another really cool feature of this phone is Micromax’s voice recognition tool AISHA, or Artificial Intelligence Speech Handset Assistant, which is pre-loaded into the A80....

The accusation, via Microsoft’s Threat Intelligence Center, says some of the attacks — originating from a hacking group called Strontium, also known as Fancy Bear/APT2 — were successful but the majority were not. Per Microsoft VP of customer security and trust Tom Burt: “Today we’re sharing that the Microsoft Threat Intelligence Center has recently tracked significant cyberattacks originating from a group we call Strontium, also known as Fancy Bear/APT28, targeting anti-doping authorities and sporting organizations around the world....

Appealing to the local crowd, the hardware honchos let slip a turf-shattering slice of news, when they confirmed that European Xbox One’s will indeed ship with a bundled copy of FIFA 14 (while supplies last). Considering the sporting title’s truly mammoth sales figures (FIFA usually sells in the region of 15 million units per season) the deal presents a major coup for Microsoft, who appear more than willing to shell out early in order to secure European market success....

Warcraft fans have not been short on content thanks to World of Warcraft, but many have been calling for a return to the RTS series. Recently, Xbox CEO Phil Spencer talked about bringing more RTS games to Xbox after the Activision Blizzard deal. He was specifically talking about series like Starcraft, but the original Warcraft series should also be given a bit of attention. While World of Warcraft is showing no signs of stopping, the return of the Warcraft RTS games could help further expand the world of Azeroth and tell stories that players have not seen yet, and Xbox already has the perfect developers for the job in Relic Entertainment....

Microsoft’s Big Event for Windows 10 You can check out all the details on the Microsoft Windows website. We say “details,” but unfortunately, there’s not a great deal on the page right now. The webpage invites you to “join us to see what’s next for Windows” and provides a time, date, and a reminder link for the event… and that’s it. If you want to know more, you’ll have to come back on June 24, 2021, at 11 am Eastern Time....

CVP of Gaming Experiences & Platforms Liz Hamren recently appeared in a video in which he discussed the future of Xbox and the potential for upcoming hardware to empower players.

That Microsoft is directly tackling the leaked Windows 11 ISO almost certainly confirms that this is the real deal, albeit in an unfinished, pre-release format. Confirmation: The Windows 11 Leak Is Real As first spotted by the team over at Fossbytes, Microsoft has issued an official DMCA takedown notice against Indian tech-site Beebom. The DMCA complaint description alleges: An official DMCA notice requires the host site to either remove the offending content or face the article (not the entire site) being removed from search results....

This flaw works by driving users towards a specific website via a ‘phishing’ email, where they will then unknowingly be affected by malware that could provide hackers with access to their system. “An attacker could then install programs; view, change or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights,” Microsoft said in an update regarding the vulnerability. The flaw affects older Internet Explorer versions including those found on Windows 7, Windows 10 and Windows Server 2012, 2016 and 2019 versions of Explorer 11, Explorer 10 for Windows Server 2012 and Explorer 9 for Windows Server 2008, according to Carnegie Mellon’s Software Engineering Institute....

“While we’ve found success in helping Chinese members find jobs and economic opportunity, we have not found that same level of success in the more social aspects of sharing and staying informed,” a LinkedIn statement said. It went on: “We’re also facing a significantly more challenging operating environment and greater compliance requirements in China. Given this, we’ve made the decision to sunset the current localized version of LinkedIn.” LinkedIn has been in China since February 2014....

Three sources are cited in the report, each said to have information regarding the ongoing negotiations. Kotaku quotes one source as stating that the deal is “90%” complete, and another source as saying, “It’s a matter of when, not if.” All sources seem to agree that the deal is likely to be completed soon and may as well be inevitable. Though in the realm of business there’s always a chance that something falls apart at the last second....

Project Scarlett is now known as Xbox Series X. The next-generation Xbox will be available in the holiday 2020 season, and it has a design that is quite the departure from what fans expect from a home video game console. As it turns out, Xbox Series X actually looks like a computer tower. However, it seems as though Xbox Series X players will have the option of turning the tower on its side, which should make it possible for people to still keep it on their living room entertainment centers....

The Android-powered Surface Duo includes two separate smartphone displays that can fold in on each other, as opposed to the flip and book-style foldables we’ve seen elsewhere. However, a big delay between the announcement and release of the original model left it feeling outdated and overpriced. 2021’s second attempt is a big step forward, but there are still significant software issues to overcome. It’s hoped that these will be addressed on an upcoming Surface Duo 3, but Microsoft may end up ditching the dual-screen design altogether....

That means the fifth model won’t appeal much as an upgrade option, but if you’re using an older Microsoft laptop – or another brand entirely – then there’s still plenty here to like, so long as you can forgive what’s becoming a bit of a dated design and don’t mind the decision to ditch AMD and go all-in on Intel. Design & build Same design as last two generations Thick bezel around the screen Two size options: 13....

PeopleLens is a platform for blind people that uses computer vision algorithms to help them interact with their social environment. The system is designed in such a way that it can recognize and interpret objects around the person and relay these details again to the person in a manner that they can understand. The technology has come up as a hope for blind people, who were not socially interactive until now....

Whitmer, a Democrat, vetoed the two Republican-sponsored bills that would limit electronic poll books and voting systems from being connected to the internet and limiting access to the Michigan voter database, saying the bills would have encouraged beliefs of an unfair 2020 presidential election and made it more difficult for people in apartment communities and senior living facilities to vote in the future. The bills implied that the electronic poll books and databases that were connected to the internet could be easily accessed by outside parties, though Whitmer said that was not true....

The unemployment benefits were mishandled at a time when 5.4 million people were applying due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This led to the agency sending out letters over the summer to 648,100 Michigan residents who were found eligible for benefits the previous year, telling them they needed to reapply for eligibility. According to the audit, 347,437 of those who had qualified before were now found ineligible. The audit also pointed out that the state will most likely not be able to recoup the money it has lost, as the fault lies with the agency and not the claimants....
