US Permits Import Restriction On Smart Watches Apple Appeal

December 28, 2023 / By Zunair Tahir / Tech News

Apple has announced that it would challenge the US government’s decision to prohibit the sale and import of its Series 9 and Ultra 2 timepieces.

The step was taken after the Biden Administration decided on Tuesday not to relax limitations due to a patent dispute in an emergency manner.

Masimo, a manufacturer of medical devices, has charged Apple of stealing its technology and staff.

As a result, the US International Trade Commission banned the import and sale of Apple watches.

Apple “pre-emptively” banned the devices from US retailers and its website earlier this month. There has been no impact on sales elsewhere.

As A Rally Legend, The Suzuki Jimny Looks Even Better

December 28, 2023 / By Zunair Tahir / Automotive News

These Two Crossovers Carry On The Spirit Of The Lancia Delta Integrale And Renault 5

The legendary off-roader and cult favorite Suzuki Jimny is about to get a makeover just in time for the 2024 Tokyo Auto Salon, all thanks to the creative efforts of Japanese tuning company DAMD.

Known for producing unique body packages for little Japanese automobiles, the business will present two striking designs that honor classic European models: the Renault 5 and the esteemed Lancia Delta Integrale.

**Suzuki Jimny for 2024 Tokyo Auto Saloon**

First off, the Jimny, as interpreted by DAMD, is a tiny crossover with headlights that are similar to those of the Renault 5 and a radiator grille that matches the small hatchback.

The Jimny’s white OZ wheels give it a rally-ready appearance, and the little spoiler at the back is a nod to the 5’s soft wing. Interestingly, unlike the original Renault 5 Turbo, a sticker on the side indicates that this vehicle is non-turbo.

DAMD also offers a Jimny that is modeled after the Lancia Delta Integrale if you like a more aggressive appearance. The company’s redesign, with its four circular headlights and yellow fog lamps built into the bumper, perfectly embodies the spirit of the Italian rally hatch. A bigger spoiler is located at the back.

Regretfully, the two crossovers’ rally-inspired styling isn’t complemented by any mechanical changes. The little off-road vehicle in Japan is equipped with a tiny 658-cc three-cylinder turbocharged engine that produces 63 horsepower and 71 pound-feet of torque.

A 1.5-liter naturally aspirated mill with 101 horsepower and 102 lb-ft of torque is available in foreign markets. However, those figures don’t alter.

GPX Reveals Exclusive GTM250R Café Racer For Japan Only

December 28, 2023 / By Zunair Tahir / Automotive News

Retro-style motorcycles will never go out of style. Even companies with few past accomplishments are producing retro-inspired motorcycles that are more about appearance than tradition. Consider the manufacturer GPX, which is situated in Thailand and was established in 2007. The company offers a large range of retro-styled devices that are marketed in several Asian regions under various labels. It introduced the GTM250R, a new model, in Japan.

Only 150 Examples Of This Compact Retro-Inspired Machine Will Be Produced

GTM250R Cafe Racer Color Option — **GTM250R Cafe Racer**

When it comes to technology, the GTM250R at least has some significantGPX’s effort to create a limited-edition vehicle only available in Japan is the GTM250R. It is a replacement for the GPX Gentleman Racer 200, a reasonably priced yet elegant device that gained popularity due to its neo-retro cafe-racer characteristics.

Regarding the new GTM250R, it has a headlamp cowl with a throwback feel, just like its predecessor. The bike seems streamlined because the fuel tank, seat, and tail section all have straight lines that are parallel to the ground. Strangely, behind the saddle, there’s a fake crankcase that’s actually a component of the bike’s bodywork.

enhancements over the basic version. The 250cc fuel-injected single-cylinder engine of the GTM250R replaces the 197cc carbureted single found in the Gentleman Racer 200.

It produces 20.4 horsepower, which isn’t exactly an exhilarating ride but is plenty for a quick commute around town. The GPX weighs 148 kg, but with a full tank of petrol, we could expect it to be closer to 160 kg (353 pounds).

The bike’s foundation is essentially the same as that of the previous model. The 17-inch wire-spoke wheels of the GTM250R are covered in road-focused rubber, and the suspension system consists of a rear monoshock with preload adjustment and an inverted front fork.

It’s interesting that the bike has two radially mounted front disc brakes. This is a little excessive for a little bike, so it’s clear that the looks were the main consideration.

Regarding cost and accessibility, the GPX GTM250R will only be available in Japan and will have a 150-unit production run. There are three colors available:

Red
Black
Yellow

The price of this limited edition retro-inspired gadget is 566,500 yen, or around $4,007 USD, for those who wish to obtain one.

Winter break In Punjab Schools Is Probably Extend Till January 8

December 27, 2023 / By Zunair Tahir / Pakistan News

In response to parent demands amid the bitter weather and fog, the Punjabi school education department is considering extending the winter break by one week.

A dense, poisonous fog, sometimes referred to as smog, has engulfed the city, making many people sick, particularly the elderly and school-age children.

Amidst the very low temperatures and heavy fog in the morning, the Department of Education is considering extending the winter break by one week.

Parents have demanded that the school break be extended by one week due to their concerns about the severe weather that is predicted to persist in January.

They point out that a number of private institutions have already been granted a vacation of more than a week, with classes starting again on January 8.

Parents are pleading for an extension of the holidays till January 7 in order to guarantee the safety and well-being of pupils during the cold weather, and this appeal also goes to Punjab government schools.

In a day or two, the Education Department will discuss with the government before making a final decision on whether to extend the vacations.

The possible postponement signifies a cooperative endeavor to give students’ well-being first priority within the difficult weather circumstances.

The Punjab government was forced by the dangerously high levels of pollution to declare early winter breaks for universities and schools. As a result, pupils would not be able to take advantage of the holiday until December 18.

According To A Source, Apple Is Set To Start Shipping Vision Pro In Bulk

December 26, 2023 / By Zunair Tahir / Tech News

Often dependable supply chain analyst Ming-Chi Kuo stated in a note on Monday that Apple will start shipping large quantities of its Vision Pro mixed-reality headset “in the first week of January” before introducing it at Apple Stores in late January or early February.

According to Kuo, Apple intends to supply “approximately 500,000” Vision Pro units in an effort to ensure the greatest possible start to the company’s most significant product launch in years.

According to the current mass shipment schedule, Kuo predicted that the Vision Pro would likely hit store shelves in late January or early February. These remarks aligned with a recent report from reputable Apple analyst Mark Gurman, who stated last week that Apple was getting ready to launch the headset “by February.”
Since revealing the Vision Pro in June, Apple has not provided a firm launch date, just stating that it would be available in shops “early 2024.” Following that, rumors began to circulate that Apple will probably launch the mixed-reality headset in March 2024.

However, given that these two prominent tipsters are essentially stating the same thing, it is more probable than not that Apple will release the Vision Pro for sale in around one month—a bit sooner than anticipated.

German reported last week that Apple is now “ramping up production” of the Vision Pro at its factories in China, “setting the stage for a launch by February,” citing sources with knowledge of the situation. He continued by saying that for the past three weeks, the Vision Pro has been manufactured “at full speed at facilities in China.”

The tech behemoth is allegedly urging software developers to test their apps and submit them to Apple for evaluation in order to prepare for the upcoming mixed-reality headset as the launch date draws closer.

Additionally, Apple intends to teach employees of Apple Stores on the proper ways to introduce and display the Vision Pro to prospective clients.

Is the Vision Pro going to be successful? It’s hard to tell for sure, but the steep $3,499 price tag is one thing that could turn off a lot of potential buyers. There are also rumors that Apple is working on a less expensive model, although it could take some time before it is released.

SpaceX Is Prepared For Fifth Attempt To Launch A Falcon Heavy Rocket

December 26, 2023 / By Zunair Tahir / Tech News

SpaceX will spend the next several days finalizing plans for a fifth attempt to launch the Falcon Heavy into space, after four abortive attempts earlier this month.

Previous attempts by SpaceX in recent weeks to utilize the rocket to launch an experimental spacecraft for the U.S. Space Force into orbit were thwarted by a variety of factors, such as inclement weather at the Florida launch site at Kennedy Space Center and an unidentified “side issue” on the ground.

The current intended launch date is Thursday, December 28, although there is no guarantee that the Falcon Heavy will launch on time based on the results of the last four attempts. Yes, SpaceX engineers will be closely monitoring the weather, since the current forecast calls for a lot of cloud and a probability of rain.

The rocket will be making its ninth flight since its inaugural one in 2018 when the Falcon Heavy eventually roars away from the launchpad.

Because SpaceX primarily uses its reliable Falcon 9 rocket for flights to and from the International Space Station as well as satellite deployment missions in low-Earth orbit, there is increased interest in the Falcon Heavy, which is made up of three Falcon 9 rockets joined together to create a more potent vehicle.

The thrust produced by the Falcon Heavy’s 27 engines upon launch is approximately 5.5 million pounds, or the equivalent of around eighteen 747 airplanes.

In addition to the spectacular sight of all that rocket force propelling it into orbit, spectators may also see the return and upright landing of two of the three boosters shortly after launch.

This is the first mission that SpaceX has launched the Space Force’s X-37B spacecraft, which is scheduled to launch on its seventh trip into orbit following its inaugural flight in 2010.

According to the Space Force, the unmanned vehicle, which resembles a scaled-down version of the space shuttle, will conduct a number of tests in orbit, such as flying in “new orbital regimes, experimenting with future space domain awareness technologies, and investigating the radiation effects on materials provided by NASA.”

Hopefully happening on Thursday, Digital Trends has all the details you need to catch the live feed of the Falcon Heavy’s launch.

The Release Date of Grand Theft Auto 6 Prediction

December 26, 2023 / By Zunair Tahir / Entertainment News

With a fixed release date of 2025, Rockstar will have plenty of time to ensure that Grand Theft Auto 6 is the finest game ever.
According to Rockstar’s release schedule, GTA 6 is most likely to be released in the fall, maybe in the middle of September or in mid-to-late October.
GTA 6 would be able to dominate the largest titles in the business and gain a lot of momentum before the holidays if it were released in the autumn.

For a while now, Grand Theft Auto 6 has been held in high respect because to the widespread worry among players that Rockstar may take a long time to abandon GTA 5. Grand Theft Auto 6 has received a 2025 release window in addition to its debut trailer, so thankfully, their patience has paid off.

While some may be upset that they still have to wait two more years for the project to be released, for others, the mere knowledge that GTA 6 is a thing is plenty. All that remains to be done is to wait for Rockstar to express satisfaction with the final result.

The next concern for those who are really excited is the precise release date of Grand Theft Auto 6. Although Rockstar is being kind by giving us a 2025 window, there is a significant gap between the release dates of February and October of that year.

Even while it’s feasible to forecast release dates for important games like Grand Theft Auto 6, these forecasts may be improved by examining how Rockstar, in particular, manages its significant releases. Though it could just be conjecture, assuming GTA 6 production proceeds as planned, Rockstar’s release schedule can serve as a roadmap for when to anticipate updates and the actual release.

After years of waiting, GTA 6 will eventually be released, but many other games that are still in production have no immediate plans to release.

Major Rockstar Games Released Since GTA 3 (2001)

- Grand Theft Auto: Vice City (2002)
- Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (2004)
- Bully (2006)
- Grand Theft Auto 4 (2008)
- Red Dead Redemption (2010)
- LA Noire (2011)
- Max Payne 3 (2012)
- Grand Theft Auto 5 (2013)
- Red Dead Redemption 2 (2018)

Considering how long games like RDR, GTA 5, and RDR 2 take to produce, it’s more helpful to look at the exact months that Rockstar publishes its products. Since GTA 3, October has seemed to be the month of choice for Rockstar releases.

During this often hectic time of year, releases of GTA 3, Vice City, San Andreas, Bully, and RDR 2 all took place. As they were published in the spring of their respective years, GTA 4 and RDR are notable outliers to this pattern; however, the September release of GTA 5 at least supports a fall release approach.

Considering this, it appears probable that Rockstar will aim for an autumn 2025 release date for Grand Theft Auto 6. Given its proximity to the holidays, autumn is typically seen as a significant period for the largest games in the business, and fall 2023 shown just how many well-known titles can be squeezed into a short period of time.

GTA 6 will probably be a huge hit no matter what month it releases, but a mid-September or mid-to-late-October release would give it plenty of time to gain traction before the holidays.

‘One Life To Live’ Actor Kamar de los Reyes Passes Away At Age 56

December 26, 2023 / By Zunair Tahir / Celebrity News

After a brief fight with cancer, Kamar de los Reyes, who portrayed Antonio Vega in the serial opera “One Life to Live” and Raul Menendez, the antagonist in the well-known video game “Call of Duty: Black Ops II,” passed away in Los Angeles on Sunday, his wife’s publicist confirmed to Variety. He was 56 years old.

De los Reyes grew up in Las Vegas after being born in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Having studied singing and dance as a child, he traveled to Los Angeles in the late 1980s to pursue his acting career.

In the 1994 off-Broadway production of “Blade to the Heat,” he played the part of Chicano boxer Pedro “Roadman” Quinn. In 1995, he costarred with Patrick Stewart in a staging of Shakespeare’s “The Tempest.”

He landed his first significant role on the venerable ABC soap opera “One Life to Live.” He portrayed Antonio Vega from 1995 to 1998. When he first appears, Vega is serving a life sentence for murder, but he is eventually freed when it is discovered that he was defending himself.

His persona was initially brought up as the matriarch Carlotta Vega’s son, but it soon became clear that he was actually Manuel Santi, Carlotta’s brother. In 2000, De los Reyes made a comeback to the program, where he played Antonio until 2009.

De los Reyes portrayed the antagonist Raul Menendez in the well-liked 2012 video game “Call of Duty: Black Ops II,” who was a terrorist and arms dealer from Nicaragua who started a new Cold War in a dystopian 2025. In Call of Duty: Black Ops IV and Call of Duty: Vanguard, he played the same role twice.

His other credits included roles in television series like Sleepy Hollow, The Rookie, and All American, as well as movies like Nixon, The Cell, and Salt. De los Reyes reportedly had parts in Hulu’s “Washington Black” and Marvel’s upcoming “Daredevil: Born Again,” according to the publicist for his wife.

Actor Sherri Saum, his wife, sons Caylen, Michael, and John, brothers Daniel and Walfredo Jr., sisters Lily and Ilde, mother Matilde, and father Walfredo all survive De los Reyes.

Designed By Audi, The Perfect Chevrolet Corvette

December 26, 2023 / By Zunair Tahir / Automotive News

The new design idea, which was influenced by the move from a front to a mid-engine configuration, was well received by everybody when Chevrolet unveiled the C8 Corvette in 2019.

One of these individuals was probably Audi designer Jason Battersby, who chose to redesign the ‘Vette using a style influenced by the C2 and C3 versions. The long hood features the C2 and C3 design motifs, a hint that is reminiscent of the iconic muscle car period and vehicles like the Ford Mustang and Plymouth Superbird. The hood has a more aerodynamic appearance thanks to chrome outlets that are reminiscent of the second-generation Chevrolet Corvette.

Audi Designs The Perfect Chevrolet Corvette jbdesign_ca — **Audi Designs The Perfect Chevrolet Corvette jbdesign**

The sleek and sophisticated appearance seems to be a hallmark of Battersby, who was involved in the Audi Grandsphere concept’s design.

While the “very simple” five-spoke wheel design complements the redesigned Vette’s modest character lines on the side profile, the nameplate’s iconic muscular and athletic design elements are still there. The Vette was first released in 1953.

The rear end features a four-piece taillight arrangement with a clean finish, evoking the Ferrari Roma. With a contemporary twist, the C2’s split-window rear is also included.

A noticeable diffuser with two exhaust points below suggests the automobile was originally intended to have an internal combustion engine.

As a last touch, Battersby gave the Corvette emblem a makeover that was uniquely his. “I chose a matte/glossy approach for the images and streamlined the design instead of going with the traditional beveled edges with color inlay. Simple, sleek black logo that continues the Corvette flag tradition—no chrome, no hassle.”

Is Battersby the right person to manage the design team for General Motors’ next C9 Corvette, which is anticipated to launch in 2028?
