Rising temperatures may worsen conditions for heart patients, research suggests

Image
Hot temperatures during the 2019 heat wave in France were linked to weight loss in people with congestive heart failure, according to a new study.  Photo by Karolina Grabowska: pexels.com In light of rising global temperatures, the study, which was published in the journal ESC Heart Failure, urges improved telemonitoring technology use in the treatment of vulnerable patients. According to study lead author Francois Roubille of Montpellier University Hospital in France, "This is the first study to look at the relationship between temperature and weight in heart failure patients." The researchers claim that the weight loss these patients experience has the potential to lower blood pressure and cause potentially fatal kidney failure. According to Dr. Robill, doctors and patients should be ready to lower the dosage of diuretics in the event of weight loss given future temperature forecasts. Diuretics, also known as water tablets, reduce blood flow in the veins and arteries by rem...

 The United States , together with its allies and partners, is ready to impose heavy and swift sanctions on Russia if the scenario of annexation of occupied Ukrainian territories continues, White House press secretary Karina Jean-Pierre warned at a press briefing on Friday. "We stand ready to impose additional swift and severe economic consequences on Russia, along with our allies and partners, in response to these actions if they (Russia) continue down the path of annexation," a White House spokeswoman said. "We continue to stand firmly with the Ukrainian people and provide them with historic levels of defense assistance to help them protect their territory, to help them defend their freedom," Jean-Pierre emphasized. She reminded that the USA and other G7 countries issued a joint statement that they will never recognize Russia's claims and Ukraine's sovereign territory, nor will they recognize the results of pseudo-referendums.

There is good news for iPhone users who have experienced camera shake.

Image
 The iPhone's operating system, iOS, received a fix from Apple on Thursday that addresses a number of bugs that surfaced during the iPhone 14's launch last week. Despite the fact that Apple frequently releases software updates after a phone's launch in response to newly discovered bugs, a number of problems with the new iPhones were widely reported in reports and on social media. Notably, iOS 16.0.2 resolves a camera shake problem where the camera makes an audible noise when it tries to focus in third-party apps like Snapchat and TikTok. The operating system also resolves an issue with data transfer from an older iPhone to an iPhone 14 (iPhone 14). In these transfers, the new device's screen may occasionally be completely black, necessitating a hard reset. The software changelog also says that Apple fixed a sound issue as well as an unresponsive touch issue on older devices. iOS 16.0.2 is available for download now.  It can be installed via Settings > General > So...

Ms. Marvel: Season 2 could soon become a reality 

Image
 Marvel Studios would have given the green light to the second season. The indiscretion was shared by Daniel Richtman. Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani) is the first Muslim superhero in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The first season received a lot of positive feedback from both critics and viewers. The previous episode revealed the superhero's mutant identity. Kamala is associated with the Inhumans in Marvel comics. The Earthen Mists have changed Kamala's appearance. This was likely done to make up for the failure of the non-canon Inhumans series. The Negative Zone may have been introduced in the first season. In the scene after the credits roll, Kamala, who has just accepted her role as Jersey City's heroine (with family approval), is transported by her bracelets to an unknown place, making Carol Danvers (Brie Larson) appear in her place. This happens after the credits. Confirmations or denials are awaited on the alleged inappropriate online behaviour. Ms. Marvel's creators ...

Apple imposes trends - they canceled 3.5mm, the charger in the package, and now they are canceling something else

Image
 Apple heroically destroyed the 3.5mm headphone jack with the iPhone 7 series seven years ago, and the iPhone 14 now signals the death of another component that we previously believed was impossibly hard to kill. A bit of a bipolar brand is Apple. On the one hand, it pioneers fashion and bravely treads where no one has gone before, but on the other, it frequently falls behind rivals when it comes to putting certain functions on its phones. It was highly audacious of them to release the iPhone 7 series in 2017 without a 3.5mm audio port for headphones, and nobody did not make fun of them at the time. First of all, their major competitors did this in order to eliminate the headphone jack in their phones when they released the following model. Similar circumstances occurred when the first companies brazenly began supplying the iPhone 12 series without a charger in the box two years ago. The situation kept happening. After being criticised and mocked at first, their fiercest competitor...

Where do the iPhone's components come from?

Image

American company Qualcomm is in charge of the 5G solutions, while Chinese company USI is in charge of the WiFi module and Apple itself produces the A15 processor in the United States. Apple is simultaneously bolstering its other business sectors so that it is less dependent on the iPhone.   Sales of the compan...

Image
  Redmi introduced a new range of affordable smartphones today; the Redmi 11 Prime and 11 Prime 5G models are equipped with a large battery and MediaTek mobile systems. The sole difference between the two new smartphones from Redmi is the system-on-a-chip (SoC) used.

For Ryzen, AMD has a new naming scheme.

Image
  AMD has introduced a new naming scheme for its Ryzen processors that will be used starting in 2023 in all mobile variants. According to AMD, it was a necessary step because the current naming scheme would make it difficult to offer new CPUs to the market. From the next year, AMD Ryzen processors for mobile devices will be referred to using the new system. After memorising the key table, enthusiasts will be able to immediately identify a processor's release year (2023, 2024, or 2025), the architecture it employs (beginning with Zen 1), and its TDP. Each character will define certain criteria. According to AMD, the new naming scheme has been developed so that most consumers can easily understand it while advanced users can study the specifics of the processor's specifications. The letter denotes the TDP level, whereas a higher number merely denotes a more modern and/or efficient Ryzen model. It is difficult to argue against the idea that everyone will be able to point to a comp...

You will get faster USB cable soon

All throughout the world, USB cables will become speedier. A new standard for USB cables that allows for a two-fold increase in data transfer speed has been developed by the USB Promoter Group. We're referring to USB4, and the most recent version (Version 2.0) allows for data transfers up to 80 Gbps. The good news is that these new USB cables will function with previous ports, including USB4 1.0, USB 3.2, USB 2.0, and Thunderbolt 3. However, even if older USB cables are compatible with newer USB4 Version 2.0 ports. Newer ports still accept older USB cords.

Now, the company has said that it won't give chargers with its ...
