Internet speed has a causal effect on business, meetings, and school productivity. The shift to remote work and our required data consumption prompted some organizations to invest in enterprise-grade wifi access points and powerful cloud security appliances. According to the data, the United States’ mean download speed fell from around 142 Mpbs to 133 from the beginning of March.

According to Borncity, the problems Microsoft Defender for Endpoint is causing have been ongoing for around a month. This issues include memory running extremely high when the program is running, black screen delays of 2 minutes or more when logging in, and issues with opening Word 2016 or newer.

This entire App Store and all the things around it is a very closed system,” he told reporters in London. “So the more we can create interoperability at least … just imagine if the web was as closed as these app stores. it would be a real tragedy. I hope in the AI world we have an open ecosystem, and we will push for that....

Buying sports shoes is no longer that easy since companies started offering them limited edition models for sale online. However, everything on the internet can be “hacked”. The limited-edition, as we know, has always been an irresistible attraction for collectors or merchants. The same thing goes for sneakers. In recent years, however, the rules for carrying out the big game have been upset by the entry of new actors. These are sneaker bot proxies, software programmed to be able to grab the right shoe model exactly at the moment of launch....

However, don’t let the fact that you will likely work from home blind you- yes, you will be at home, yes, you can enjoy your warm, cozy bed in the winter, yes, you can eat when you want. But work is work. When you’re at the office, you likely have a set shift that you need to work- say, 9-5....

Titled ‘FRICTION HINGE WITH CLUTCH-BASED RESISTANCE’, the latest patent has some improvements in mind. Under the new design, it would be easier to close the kickstand, but harder to open it. These changes would mean the hinge is less likely to slide when the weight of the tablet is on it, but users should be able to snap it closed quite easily when they’re done. It’s a small change, but these improvements add up over time to create a feeling of quality....

Starting this Spring, Twitch will become not just a streaming platform, but a games retailer. In may sound like a slightly strange move, but under closer examination it makes sense.

There will also be rewards for watchers, who receive a free Twitch Crate full of emotes and chat badges with each purchase over $4....

What is an embedded font in PowerPoint The PowerPoint font embed feature lets you store the fonts you use in your presentation inside your PowerPoint file. This typically increases the file size but prevents PowerPoint formatting changes between computers. When you send a PowerPoint without a font embed, the receiver must have the fonts you used installed on their PC for it to display correctly. While common fonts like Arial are usually fine, fonts that you have downloaded from the internet or that are specific to your operating system may not be....

As I wrote in April, Steam’s numbers are hardly a pointer to how well Windows Mixed Reality is doing on the whole. Yes, the platform is the biggest streaming game service, but WMR is also available standalone for Windows PC. Since the April low of 5.04%, Windows Mixed Reality has been improving. In May the service recorded 5.89% usage share before increasing to 6.25% in June. When those early declines were recorded, WMR was new on Steam, so it seems the virtual reality platform is now taking hold on the streaming service....

It is worth noting that Gartner only discusses devices that were sold through the set period. In this case, it’s the fourth quarter of 2016, including the holiday season. So, the decline of Windows Phone over the quarter is not necessarily the platform’s market share overall. Gartner reports that out of all devices sold during Q4, only 0.3% of those units were Windows Phone. While Microsoft’s OS may have a bigger market share overall, this is probably an accurate representation of the challenge the company faces....
