What’s in the Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 20206? The news on this update broke on Windows Blogs.

So, which is better across the board? Let’s find out. Visa and Crypto’s Eco-Friendliness Between crypto and Visa, billions of payments are processed every single day. But which of these two payment methods has a more serious effect on our environment? As you may have heard before, cryptocurrency can be quite bad for the environment. A number of processes involved in the crypto industry, particularly mining and transactions, eat up a huge amount of energy....

It has already taken steps towards that future with the wireless tracker, allowing for PC-level performance without wires, Vive Trackers that allow you to track your limbs and other real-world objects, and the Eye Pro tracker makes it possible to track gaze and eyebrow movements, but there’s still a way to go before it’s fully realised. Today, it comes a step closer with the reveal of the new Facial Tracker and updated Vive Tracker 3....

The line-up is made up of the iQoo 9, iQoo 9 Pro, and iQoo 9 SE. The phones are designed with performance and gaming in mind, whilst retaining the refined and slick design that Vivo is known for. The three phones are launching in today, but no release date has been confirmed for other markets like the UK or Europe – and a US release is unlikely. You can see our unboxing of the iQoo 9 Pro Legend Edition below:...

Working from home could be worse, I thought to myself. This setup was not on a spaceship, but instead came courtesy of the newly updated Virtual Desktop app ($19.99) for the Oculus Quest 2. Read on for more details, but here’s the takeaway: Just go out and buy it if you have an Oculus. This isn’t Virtual Desktop’s first rodeo on the Oculus. In 2019, the app arrived on the Quest allowing wireless PC streaming, but the feature was later removed....

The brush section at the bottom is detachable which turns the rest of the vacuum into a slightly unwieldy handheld, but at least provides versatility for times when you need to clean other surfaces. Price & availability The VB100 costs £749 from Vorwerk, which is certainly at the upper end of the scale. But it’s not expensive in the Vorwerk range, where some models cost well over £1000. It’s an ideal alternative to the Kobold VK200, reviewed, if you don’t want to be tethered to a mains cable, although there isn’t a similar range of attachments for the VB100....

So it is with the Vivo V23 Pro. The first in the series to earn a ‘Pro’ moniker, it’s really the Vivo S12 Pro re-branded for the global market. Still, in ethos this earns its spot in the V-series thanks to a clear focus on design and its dual selfie camera – even if it’s a shame to see the superior OIS front camera from last year’s V21 not make a return....

What Is a VOB File? A file with the .VOB file extension is most likely a DVD video object file, which can contain both video and audio data, as well as other movie-related content like subtitles and menus. They’re sometimes encrypted and normally seen stored at the root of a DVD within the VIDEO_TS folder. 3D models/objects created by the E-on Vue 3D modeling program use this file extension, too. They can be textured using the information stored in a MAT (Vue Material) file....

Typically, carriers like Vodafone charge pay monthly customers an additional fee to upgrade their handset before the end of their contract, however, starting from 24 August, those who purchase an iPhone SE (2020) or any variant of iPhone 11 (i.e. including the 11 Pro and Pro Max) on a 24-month plan will be able to upgrade their handset after only 12 months at no extra cost. Vodafone sees this as a way for iPhone owners to enjoy having access to Apple’s latest and greatest smartphones each and every year, but the terms of the Annual Upgrade Promise don’t explicitly limit customers from upgrading to a new iPhone....
