Phones / Re: Mediatek Launches Helio G35, G25 Gaming Chipset Below $100 (N39,000) by PATAlolade(m): 3:02pm On Jul 10, 2020
Abbeylincson:
You don’t need to have a big buck to buy a gaming phone… Mediatek has made it easier for you by introducing Helio G35 and G25 chipsets aimed at gaming smartphone below $100.
Here is what the chipsets are made of:

Helio G35 Chipset

The Helio G35 is a 12nm chip with an octa-core processor – but it’s all Cortex-A53 cores (not even the faster A55, let alone A7x cores). They run at 2.3GHz and can be connected to up to 6GB of RAM of the 1,600MHz LPDDR4x variety (the cheaper LPDDR3 is also supported up to 4GB). For storage, eMMC 5.1 is the only option.

The GPU is a PowerVR GE8320 from Imagination, running at 680MHz. MediaTek’s HyperEngine dynamically adjusts the CPU, GPU and memory based on thermals and power draw.
The G35 can be used with cameras up to 25MP (or 13+13MP if using a dual cam setup).

Helio G25 Chipset


The Helio G25 has the same architecture, but with lower clock speeds. The CPU is down to 2.0GHz, the GPU to 650 MHz. A bigger difference is that the G35 supports 1080p+ displays while the G25 tops out at 720p+.
Camera features include Multi-Frame Noise Reduction, Electronic Image Stabilization and Rolling Shutter Compensation. If a depth sensor is available, the chipsets can render bokeh effects.
The G25 capabilities have been lowered to 21MP cameras (or dual 13+8MP). Both can record 1080p videos at 30 fps using the H.264 codec. For playback H.265 is also supported.
In terms of connectivity, both Helio chipsets are equal. They can do VoLTE and ViLTE on two 4G connections. The HyperEngine can switch between Wi-Fi and LTE in just 13 milliseconds to maintain a fast, stable connection (that’s important for multiplayer games).
Locally, Wi-Fi 5 (ac) and Bluetooth 5.0 are supported and there’s an FM radio receiver.

Crime / Hushpuppi's Lawyer Says FBI 'kidnapped' Nigerian Instagrammer From Dubai by PATAlolade(m): 2:41pm On Jul 10, 2020
Hushpuppi's lawyer says FBI 'kidnapped' Nigerian Instagrammer from Dubai
By Larry Madowo

A Nigerian man accused of multimillion-dollar fraud and money laundering by the United States was kidnapped by the FBI from Dubai, his lawyer says.
Ramon Olorunwa Abbas - known to his 2.5 million Instagram followers as Ray Hushpuppi - and another cyber-heist suspect Olalekan Jacob Ponle (aka Mr Woodberry) were arrested in Dubai, where they lived, in June.
They then appeared in a Chicago court on 3 July.
The United Arab Emirates has no extradition treaty with the United States but Dubai police said they had been extradited to the US.
A spokesman for the US Department of Justice told the BBC that Hushpuppi was expelled from Dubai and was not extradited. He did not answer how he ended up in US custody.

What does Hushpuppi's lawyer say?
Mr Abbas' lawyer Gal Pissetzky told the BBC that his client, who posts on Instagram about his extravagant lifestyle, was not a criminal and had made his money legitimately.
"He is a social media influencer with millions of followers, with millions of people that respect and loved him, and he loved them, and that's what he did. In today's society, that's a business," he said.
Mr Pissetzky admits that he is not "100% familiar" with social media and his children consider him too old but he knows "that's how people make money today".

Report
The Chicago defence lawyer's argument that Hushpuppi was paid by designer brands for promotion has set the stage for what promises to be a long trial in American courts.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) accuses Mr Abbas, 37, of conspiring to launder hundreds of millions of dollars from frauds known as Business Email Compromise (BEC) and other scams.
Did the US act legally?
It is the latest high-profile fraud case involving a Nigerian national in the United States but his lawyer says the US had no authority to transport him from Dubai.
"In my opinion, the FBI and the government here acted illegally when they kidnapped him from Dubai without any legal process to do so," Mr Pissetzky told the BBC.
"There was no extradition, there were no legal steps taken, there were no court documents filed, it was simply a call to the FBI. He is not a citizen of the United States, the US had absolutely no authority to take him," his lawyer says.
But the Dubai police said in a Facebook post that the FBI director had thanked them for extraditing the two men.
"You'll have to ask them about why they called it an extradition," the US Department of Justice (DoJ) spokesman responded in an email.
In a statement about Mr Abbas' initial court appearance, the DoJ said "FBI special agents earlier this week obtained custody of Abbas and brought him to the United States" without giving any further details.
Mr Pissetzky is not convinced.
"If Dubai wanted to expel him, they should have expelled him back to Nigeria. I've never heard of anything like that. That is the real story here."

Realme is set to launch another Realme smartphone series in the market. The devices, Realme Narzo 10 and Narzo 10A were supposed to be released in the month of March, 26th of the month to precise.

The launch date was postponed because of the pandemic outbreak across all nations of the world but both Realme Narzo 10 and Narzo 10A are set to debut on the 11th of May, which is on Monday, 2020.

A sober reflection on the Npower Program.. ... By Akejumania

You went to work from 7am to 2pm daily as a Nigerian graduate and by month end your government pays you $71(30,000) and you say, "The government is trying"....

Your uneducated neighbor traveled to Europe and he's earning $72 in 6hrs, yet, you are not bothered.

Npower was introduced to keep graduates "within" the poverty line, it was never meant to lift anyone from poverty...what the Nigerian government pays you for 132 hours is what your mates get for 6hrs in human inhabited countries, yet, you are not bothered.

If they ask you to be bothered, you always say, "complaining will not change anything".... You fail to realize that multiple and
coordinated complaints from knowledge of oppression is the only basis for true societal reformation.

Once again I say(though you may not agree), the Nigerian governments (all tiers and structures) as constituted today, see the ordinary Nigerians as refugees who should be grateful for receiving 30k monthly with hard labour.

Civil servants who earn 500,000 naira monthly for 35 years are
retired with special bulk payment known as "gratuities" but innocent graduates were paid 30,000 naira monthly for two years and disengaged without start up funds and the government calls it empowerment.

When we go to the markets, sellers don't reduce the prices of
commodities for us because we are npower volunteers: they sell at the same price they sell to ministers and Directors...

How do you train people for two to three years and send them off without a start-up fund?

Psychometric Test is a ploy to console and silence npower volunteers.

A reasonable government will not disengage poor people during socioeconomic crisis.

There is nothing wrong for the government to enrol one million
volunteers with 30bn naira monthly till 2023.

You can never lift people from poverty with 30,000 naira
monthly coupled with hard labour.

Npower volunteers are treated worse than refugees in Italy...

To my potential batch C volunteers, you may see 30,000 as millions today because you have not been enrolled. Don't
worry, after enrolment, you will feel the pains of being oppressed by your principals, Focal persons and minister... you
will feel the pains of working at a primary health care from 7:30am to 5pm with delayed 30,000 naira monthly.

30,000 naira will NEVER improve your life in 12 months.....the whip that was used on the first wife is reserved for the second wife.

Nigerian graduates deserve better empowerment but we are oppressed, used and misused by the government we joyfully voted into power.

Buhari promised us 3 million jobs yearly when elected, but what we got was upgraded NYSC for a limited period.

Npower batches A&B volunteers are now sent back to the labour market.

Training without empowerment funds is a sham and mere
political display.

You cannot train 500,000 graduates with 30,000 naira shoe allowances and in the end, drive them away with nothing to hold on.....

Stay strong Nigerian graduates.... we shall meet in the land where there's no darkness....

The end of an age ushers a new era....
Stay strong Nigerian graduates.
Fare ye well!
90% of them never do any work, they just collect their allawee only. The remaining 10% are the School teacher who find it hard to neglect their duty.

Phones / Apple Faces Two EU Anti-competition Probes by PATAlolade(m): 12:37am On Jun 17, 2020
Apple faces two European Commission probes into whether it has broken competition rules.

One investigation centres on iPad and iPhones being limited to installing apps from Apple's own App Store, among other restrictions imposed on third-party developers.

The other involves Apple Pay, with one issue being that other services cannot use the iPhone's tap-and-go facility.

Apple said it was "disappointing" the EU was "advancing baseless complaints".

And it accused companies that had raised allegations against it of wanting a "free ride".

"Our goal is simple: for our customers to have access to the best app or service of their choice, in a safe and secure environment."

Apple is also under scrutiny in the US where the House Judiciary Committee is reported to have asked for its chief executive Tim Cook to appear alongside other tech leaders to answer questions about anti-trust concerns.

Amazon has said that its chief executive Jeff Bezos is willing to testify, so long as Mr Cook and his counterparts at Facebook and Google also give evidence.

The latest development comes days before Apple holds its annual developers conference.

App sales
The investigation into Apple's App Store stems from a complaint raised by the music streaming service Spotify.

Last year, it raised two specific concerns:

the only way developers can sell content and/or subscriptions directly within an iOS app is via Apple's own system
publishers cannot tell users within their apps that the same items can be bought elsewhere - for example via the service's own website
Apple typically charges apps a 30% cut of any sales, although that rate falls to 15% for the second and later years of any subscription.

Publishers often sell media and other digital goods at a lower price when bought outside of their apps, but consumers can be unaware of the fact.

Since Apple only allows apps to be downloaded from its own store, and has repeatedly updated its mobile operating system to prevent "jailbreaks" that circumvent this rule, it is argued that third-parties have little option but to comply with its conditions.

The only alternative is to offer their products as web-based services, which can limit their functionality.

The Financial Times has reported that Rakuten's online bookstore Kobo recently contacted the European Commission with similar concerns.

"Apple's anti-competitive behaviour has intentionally disadvantaged competitors, created an unlevel playing field, and deprived consumers of meaningful choice for far too long," said Spotify in response to the latest development.

"We welcome the European Commission's decision to formally investigate Apple, and hope they'll act with urgency to ensure fair competition on the iOS platform for all participants in the digital economy."

Mobile payments
The Apple Pay investigation centres on a technology that allows iPhones and Apple Watches to make tap-and-go payments. It also lets users buy goods via an app or website without having to give their payment card details to the seller.

The European Commission has concerns about the conditions imposed on services that have added the facility.

It also has reservations that alternative payment tech cannot make use of the near field communication (NFC) chips in Apple's products to work with contactless payment terminals.

By contrast, Samsung phones - for example - let their NFC chips be used for both Samsung Pay and Google Pay.

"It is important that Apple's measures do not deny consumers the benefit of new payment technologies, including better choice, quality, innovation and competitive prices," said Margrethe Vestager, the EU's Competition Commissioner and Executive Vice President.

The commissioner added that she had not set a deadline for the investigations to be completed.

What today's move is about is the huge power over prices and innovation that control of a platform gives to a tech giant.

Ever tried to buy a Kindle book via Amazon's iPhone apps? You can't because Amazon doesn't want to see Apple walk away with a 30% cut of the purchase price.

App developers big and small have protested over the years about what they see as Apple's abuse of its position as a gatekeeper to its iOS platform.

Similarly, the tech giant's strict controls on the way NFC works on its phones has sparked complaints that Apple Pay has huge advantages over what could be more innovative payment systems.

Complaints about this behaviour aren't limited to Europe, but once again Margrethe Vestager has shown that she wants to set the pace in pushing back against the power of the big tech platforms.

And another American behemoth may be about to feel the heat - all the signs are that Ms Vestager is about to determine the outcome of an existing probe into how Amazon controls its online retailing platform.

The twin inquiries follow an earlier case in which Brussels ordered Apple to pay 13bn euros ($14.4bn; £11.4bn) after claims that Ireland had given the company illegal state aid by failing to tax it properly. The Irish government and Apple have appealed the ruling.

The latest probes are likely to cast a shadow over the firm's Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC), which begins on Monday.

Apple has already claimed its app ecosystem generated more than half a trillion dollars in sales and other billings last year, saying the vast majority of that was not subject to it taking a commission.

But its relationships with some developers have become strained.

In recent days, one has called on Apple to reduce its standard cut from 30% to 20% while another has accused the firm of operating a "capricious and inconsistent review process" that can cause delays to the release of even minor app updates.

In an interview pegged to last year's WWDC, Mr Cook said that he thought that scrutiny of the firm was fair but added that regulators should bear in mind it does not have a monopoly of any market.
