The world will remain, during these three days, without sunlight due to a solar storm, which will cause dust and space debris to become plentiful and thus, block 90% sunlight.<br /> This is the head of NASA Charles Bolden who made the announcement and asked everyone to remain calm. This will be the product of a solar storm, the largest in the last 250 years for a period of 216 hours total. Reporters interviewed a few people to hear what they had to say about the situation with Michael Hearns responding “We gonna be purgin my n*gga, six days of darkness means six days of turnin up fam”.<br /> Despite the six days of darkness soon to come, officials say that the earth will not experience any major problems, since six days of darkness is nowhere near enough to cause major damage to anything. “We will solely rely on artificial light for the six days, which is not a problem at all”, says NASA scientist Earl Godoy.

It's just a coincidence," Dongarra said in an email to Xinhua, adding that there would be additional announcements to come from the DOE.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> And before that, there will be no machine that can dethrone the Chinese supercomputer, he said.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> Tianhe-2, which means "Milky Way-2" in Chinese, can operate at 33.86 petaflops per second (Pflop/s), the equivalent of 33,860 quadrillion calculations per second.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> The National Supercomputer Centre in Guangzhou in south China, where Tianhe-2 is installed, is reportedly making an update to increase the system's speed to more than 100 Pflop/s.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> Titan, installed at the DOE's Oak Ridge National Laboratory, remains the No. 2 system with a performance of 17.59 Pflop/s. Sequoia, installed at the DOE's Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, is again the No. 3 system with a performance of 17.17 Pflop/s.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> Japan's K computer is the No. 4 system with 10.51 Pflop/s, followed by Mira, installed at the DOE's Argonne National Laboratory, which has a performance of 8.59 Pflop/s.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> In fact, the top 10 list was almost the same as the one published six months ago. The only new entry was at number 10, a 3.57 Pflop/s Cray Storm system installed at an undisclosed US government site.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> "These machines in the top 10 are very expensive and provide extreme computing power. Perhaps we have enough computing power for the moment and not enough funding for the next generation just now," Dongarra said, noting that the interest and need by science for these systems and more powerful systems will not end.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> In terms of overall systems, the US remains the top country with 231, but this number is down from 233 in June 2014 and down from 265 on the November 2013 list, nearing the country's historical low number on the list.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> China still occupies the No.2 position as a user of supercomputers, ahead of Japan, Britain, France, and Germany. But the number of systems installed in the Chinese mainland has fallen to 61, compared with 76 on the previous list.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> The Top500 list is considered one of the most authoritative rankings of the world's supercomputers. It is compiled on the basis of the machines' performance on the Linpack benchmark by experts from the US and Germany.</div> </div> </div>

Android 5.0 Lollipop Review: A Sweet Upgrade

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <div class="gad_smallimage_cont" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; float: left; font-family: Karla, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; letter-spacing: -0.699999988079071px; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-right: 20px; outline: 0px;"> <img alt="android_lolipop_screenshot_05.jpg" class="imgbdr" id="HeadContent_FullstoryCtrl_mainstoryimage" src="http://cdn.ndtv.com/tech/images/gadgets/android_lolipop_screenshot_05.jpg" style="outline: 0px;" /></div> <div class="description" id="HeadContent_FullstoryCtrl_fulldetails" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Karla, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; letter-spacing: -0.699999988079071px; line-height: 24px; outline: 0px;"> Android's sweet new "Lollipop" flavor brings security improvements and easier ways to view and respond to notifications. The new Google software for mobile devices even lets you lend out your phone without worrying about a friend circulating your naked selfies on <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Universal-Stuf/390902531062900" style="color: #006699; outline: 0px; text-decoration: none;">Facebook</a>.<br /> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> I tested Lollipop on Google's new Nexus 6 phone, which comes out this week. I can only hope that as other phones get the upgrade over time, it will be as good as what you get on the Nexus.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> It's a shame many phone manufacturers that use Android believe they have to tweak it extensively to make the software theirs and not Google's. Mucking around with it only confuses customers and steers app developers toward working on iPhoneversions first, where there is more uniformity - and thus incentive to incorporate the latest features.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> Assuming your phone maker is running Lollipop in its purest form, here's what you'll get:</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> <b style="outline: 0px;">Notifications</b><br /> You used to have to pull down the notification tray from the top, as you would a window shade. With Lollipop, notifications appear in the center of the lock screen. You can expand messages and reply right from the lock screen.</div> <span class="mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image" style="display: inline; outline: 0px;"><img alt="android_lolipop_screenshot_03.jpg" class="mt-image-center" height="486" src="http://cdn.ndtv.com/tech/images/gadgets/android_lolipop_screenshot_03.jpg" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 20px; outline: 0px; text-align: center;" width="276" /></span><br /> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> If you've set up a passcode - more on that in a bit - you'll be prompted to enter it before composing that reply. You also have the option to block all notifications or just those from specific apps if you're worried about privacy. Or you can choose to hide sensitive content. In those cases, you'll see you got an email or text, but you won't see who sent it or what the message says.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> You can also choose "priority" mode and get notifications only from apps you mark as priority. In that mode, you can also choose to accept calls and texts only from known contacts or favorites. You still see all incoming calls or messages if you're looking, but you're not disrupted by vibrations or rings.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> <b style="outline: 0px;">Security</b><br /> Too often, I've turned off the passcode on my Android phone because I get tired of entering it every time I pick it up. With Lollipop, you can keep your phone unlocked when it's near a trusted device of your choosing - say, a Bluetooth-enabled car or an Android smartwatch. Bluetooth range can extend 30 feet or more, so be sure you trust your friends if you step away without your phone. Or delete those naked selfies first.</div> <span class="mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image" style="display: inline; outline: 0px;"><img alt="android_lolipop_screenshot_02.jpg" class="mt-image-center" height="486" src="http://cdn.ndtv.com/tech/images/gadgets/android_lolipop_screenshot_02.jpg" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 20px; outline: 0px; text-align: center;" width="276" /></span><br /> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> With Lollipop, Android also joins Apple's iOS 8 software in encrypting data by default. This is important if your phone is lost or stolen.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> <b style="outline: 0px;">Multiple profiles</b><br /> If you lend your phone out, or share it with a family member, you'll now have profile options. You can set up to four profiles, each with its own settings, contacts, photos and apps. Each user can be at a different level on "Candy Crush Saga." Or a friend can download it without having it clutter your apps list. Likewise, guests can use their own email and Facebook accounts - not yours.</div> <span class="mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image" style="display: inline; outline: 0px;"><img alt="android_lolipop_screenshot_04.jpg" class="mt-image-center" height="494" src="http://cdn.ndtv.com/tech/images/gadgets/android_lolipop_screenshot_04.jpg" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 20px; outline: 0px; text-align: center;" width="635" /></span><br /> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> Some options are disabled if you're not the owner. For instance, your kid won't be able to restore the phone to factory settings and wipe out all your data. But friends or family can update your apps and accept permissions on your behalf. It's your choice whether they can make calls and text, as they would still be using your phone number. The browser and app store don't come with parental controls, so it isn't meant for unsupervised use. And no secondary profile will keep your kid from smearing grape jelly on the screen.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> <b style="outline: 0px;">Shortcuts</b><br /> Lollipop adds several shortcuts above the notification tray. You can get quick access to the flashlight and the setting for airplane mode, something some Android manufacturers have added, but not all. There's also a new "Cast screen" button to send video from your phone to a TV with an <a href="http://gadgets.ndtv.com/tags/android-tv" style="color: #006699; outline: 0px; text-decoration: none;">Android TV</a> streaming device. Unfortunately, you can't change the options. Those without an Android TV device won't need "Cast screen," but might want a screen-rotation lock instead, for instance.</div> <span class="mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image" style="display: inline; outline: 0px;"><img alt="android_lolipop_screenshot_01.jpg" class="mt-image-center" height="559" src="http://cdn.ndtv.com/tech/images/gadgets/android_lolipop_screenshot_01.jpg" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 20px; outline: 0px; text-align: center;" width="345" /></span><br /> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> The new Android software also removes some of the distinctions between apps and content. Previous versions of Android offered ways to scroll through open apps to pick which goes to the foreground. Now, individual tabs in the Chrome browser and individual documents in Google Docs appear separately, so you can go straight to your content without having to go to that app first. Other app developers will be able to enable this feature, too.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> <b style="outline: 0px;">And the rest</b><br /> Lollipop comes with an updated Calendar app that integrates with your Gmail service so that flight reservations, concert tickets and other confirmation emails get automatically turned into calendar events. The app is also more visually pleasing and fun. Keywords such as "concerts," "dentist" and "brunch" trigger appropriate graphics.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> Still missing, though, is the ability to decide whether individual apps can access your location. I might want Google Maps but not Starbucks to have my location. Apple's iOS software lets you choose on an app-by-app basis, but it's all or nothing with Android.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> Nonetheless, Lollipop is a worthy upgrade that I hope will come to your Android device - unfettered - soon.</div> </div> </div>

Dragon Age: Inquisition Will Not Be Available in India - Here's Why

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <div class="gad_smallimage_cont" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; float: left; font-family: Karla, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; letter-spacing: -0.699999988079071px; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-right: 20px; outline: 0px;"> <img alt="Electronic_Arts_Dragon_Age_Inquisition_Cover.jpg" class="imgbdr" id="HeadContent_FullstoryCtrl_mainstoryimage" src="http://cdn.ndtv.com/tech/gadgets/Electronic_Arts_Dragon_Age_Inquisition_Cover.jpg" style="outline: 0px;" /></div> <div class="" id="HeadContent_FullstoryCtrl_fulldetails" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Karla, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; letter-spacing: -0.699999988079071px; line-height: 24px; outline: 0px;"> Gamers in India looking forward to Dragon Age: Inquisition will not be able to play the game. Well, officially at least. While parts of the internet, including publisher Electronic Arts' (EA) forums are abuzz with all sorts of speculation, we've managed to speak to those close to the matter to set the record straight. <br style="outline: 0px;" /><br style="outline: 0px;" /><strong style="outline: 0px;">Okay, what actually happened?</strong><br style="outline: 0px;" />This weekend, EA issued a statement on Origin, the company's online PC game store that anyone in India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh who has pre-ordered the game will have their money refunded. The official statement is as follows:<div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> "In order to avoid a breach of local content laws, EA has withdrawn Dragon Age: Inquisition from sale in India and the game is no longer available for pre-order. Customers who pre-ordered the game will be contacted directly and will be fully refunded."</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> Simon Smith-Wright, Regional Marketing Director, Asia Pacific at Electronic Arts has confirmed the same to NDTV Gadgets on email. EA stopped releasing games on disc for PC in India earlier this year, but this also applies to the physical copies of the game that would have been sold on consoles.</div> <span class="mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image" style="display: inline; outline: 0px;"><img alt="electronic_arts_dragon_age_inquisition_screenshot.jpg" class="mt-image-center" height="357" src="http://cdn.ndtv.com/tech/gadgets/electronic_arts_dragon_age_inquisition_screenshot.jpg" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 20px; outline: 0px; text-align: center;" width="635" /></span><div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> The distributor for the game, Milestone Interactive said that this refers to the game's homosexual sex scenes. Rather than face the wrath of some of India's more prudish segments of society, EA have pre-emptively decided to make the game unavailable in India, without confirming or commenting on which local laws were being breached.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> Sources close to the matter who chose to remain anonymous have said that this refers to users who have taken offence to some of EA's earlier games such as Dante's Inferno. Unfortunately, the exact details of the judgement in that case are not available online but it is clear that EA is willing to avoid entering the market at all, instead of risking another court case.</div> <strong style="outline: 0px;">Does this affect Dragon Age: Inquisition only?</strong>"The current action we've taken only affects Dragon Age Inquisition", said Smith-Wright when asked if this would affect Dragon Age: Origins and Dragon Age II as well as other role-playing games such as Mass Effect and it's two sequels. All of these allowed players to pursue romantic relationships with specific characters in the games.<div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> Dragon Age II had only four character romances. They were all bisexual so players had some sort of choice. With Inquisition there are a lot more options. It sports the series' first fully gay character, Dorian, that players have the option to romance. The developer Bioware has gone with more options in terms of romances for Inquisition. There are straight, bisexual, and gay character romances because they each tell different stories.</div> <span class="mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image" style="display: inline; outline: 0px;"><img alt="Electronic_Arts_dragon_age_2_art.jpg" class="mt-image-center" height="357" src="http://cdn.ndtv.com/tech/gadgets/Electronic_Arts_dragon_age_2_art.jpg" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 20px; outline: 0px; text-align: center;" width="635" /></span><div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> In the Fable games, your character can be straight or gay. Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood suggests that Leonardo Da Vinci was gay. Even The Last of Us has a minor part played by a gay character and in the game's Left Behind downloadable content, we learn that Ellie is attracted to other girls. All these games are available in India as well. Our guess is that given the recent revisions to the laws pertaining to homosexuality, EA is not willing to risk any potential legal trouble.</div> <strong style="outline: 0px;">Okay, has this happened before?</strong><br style="outline: 0px;" />In the past Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas never made it to India. This is because Bethesda, the series' publisher didn't want to offend Indian sensibilities due to the game's portrayal of cows. They were mutated, two-headed, and called Brahmins. At the same time, the game was edited for sale in Australia and Japan. References to morphine and nuclear bombs were removed respectively for copies sold in these countries. Of course, the size of the Indian RPG market is much smaller. Informed sources tell us that such games sell a few hundred copies at best.<span class="mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image" style="display: inline; outline: 0px;"><img alt="Bethesda_Fallout_New_Vegas_art.jpg" class="mt-image-center" height="357" src="http://cdn.ndtv.com/tech/gadgets/Bethesda_Fallout_New_Vegas_art.jpg" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 20px; outline: 0px; text-align: center;" width="635" /></span><div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> Nonetheless, the games were (and still are) readily available via the grey market. And digitally as well if you're willing to use a VPN or have a friend abroad gift them to you via Steam.</div> <strong style="outline: 0px;">But I want the game anyway, what do I do?</strong><br style="outline: 0px;" />If you're on PC, you can use a VPN service like Hola to buy the game from sites like G2A or Green Man Gaming or import a physical copy from Amazon US or PlayAsia. You'll also need a VPN for disc-based PC copies as these too require activation via Origin.<br style="outline: 0px;" /><br style="outline: 0px;" />Buying it officially via Sony's and Microsoft's digital stores in India may not be possible either.<br style="outline: 0px;" /><br style="outline: 0px;" />"The action we are taking applies to all versions of Dragon Age Inquisition across all sales channels within India. So India PSN and XBL stores included in that, yes. We're working with all partners on ensuring this action is complete as soon as possible", said Smith-Wright.<br style="outline: 0px;" /><br style="outline: 0px;" />PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One users can either import the game from Amazon US or download it via the US PS Store or US Xbox Games Store. The latter requires you to either have a US credit card (your luck with virtual cards would vary) or purchase store credit via Amazon US or sites like Maximus Cards. Needless to say, the grey market will be bringing it in so be on the look out around release date. The release date of the game for India was November 21, in line with the European release date - less than a week away.<br style="outline: 0px;" /><br style="outline: 0px;" /><span class="mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image" style="display: inline; outline: 0px;"><img alt="microsoft_xbox_games_store_india_dragon_age_inquisition.jpg" class="mt-image-center" height="557" src="http://cdn.ndtv.com/tech/gadgets/microsoft_xbox_games_store_india_dragon_age_inquisition.jpg" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 20px; outline: 0px; text-align: center;" width="635" /></span><i style="outline: 0px;">Dragon Age: Inquisition might not be available through EA's channels but it's still available on the Xbox Games Store for India. For how long, remains to be seen.</i><br style="outline: 0px;" /><br style="outline: 0px;" /><strong style="outline: 0px;">Is this really a big deal?</strong><br style="outline: 0px;" />From a commercial standpoint, role-playing games like Dragon Age don't do well at all in India. Usually nothing more than the minimum order quantity is what is imported. This is in the range of 300 to 500 units for consoles and about 1,000 units on PC. So it's not a big loss to EA or it's distributor compared to games such as FIFA that are more popular.<div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> However it does beg the question, why indulge in complete censorship? Television shows of all sorts are available in the country by exercising self-censorship in subtitles. The user base isn't spectacular in India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh but if there's a long term view to grow the market,video game companies would do well to take notice of the practises followed by other industries.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> By pre-emptively deciding against selling the game before raising any questions, EA will push a lot more people into piracy. It's simpler than finding a legal workaround. People who would have paid full price for the game locally will end up importing it, buying it digitally from other stores or obtain illegal copies. Simply because EA isn't willing to cater to the market.</div> <div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; outline: 0px; width: 650px;"> What do you think? Should EA have made the right decision by not bringing the game at all? Let us know in the comments.</div> </div> </div>
