Destiny 2’s Prophecy Dungeon Coming Back With Next Update

Posted on December 4, 2020 by [email protected]_84

The Prophecy dungeon launched in Destiny 2 back in June, adding another inventive, high-level activity to the game that wasn’t one of its six-player raids. But when the Beyond Light expansion was released, a whole slate of Destiny 2 content was removed from the game, with no information as to when (or if) it might return. Prophecy wasn’t quite in the same boat as destinations like Mars, Mercury, Titan, Io, and the Leviathan–Bungie always said it would come back after Beyond Light’s release–but we didn’t know exactly when, until now.

Bungie included an update on Prophecy’s return in its latest This Week at Bungie blog post. We now know that Prophecy will be back in the game very soon: December 8. That’s the date of the game’s next weekly reset, which will see a new patch, Update 3.0.1, that fixes some issues and adds a few extra elements along with

Apple sued in Europe over software update that slowed old iPhones

Posted on December 1, 2020 by [email protected]_84

A consumer advocacy group is suing Apple for about €180m in four European countries for allegedly duping users into downloading updates that deliberately slowed down their iPhones.

The legal actions mirror a class action in the US that led to a proposed settlement there worth up to $500m, following allegations that Apple engineered the software updates to induce users to buy newer models. Apple agreed to the US settlement in March, admitting no wrongdoing but saying it wanted to avoid protracted litigation.

“Apple pushed updates to mask problems with the battery, knowing it would slow down phones,” said Els Bruggeman, head of policy and enforcement at Euroconsumers, the consumer advocacy group behind the new lawsuits.

European consumers, she said, “just want to be treated with the same respect that was given to consumers in the United States”.

Euroconsumers-affiliated groups are filing class action lawsuits in Belgium and Spain on Wednesday,

Windows 10: This is 2020’s last 2004 and 20H2 optional update, says Microsoft

Posted on December 1, 2020 by [email protected]_84

Windows users and admins can expect a Patch Tuesday update on December 8, but Microsoft just snuck in the final optional update for the latest versions of Windows 10 a day ahead of its December 1 cut-off.

In mid-November Microsoft warned it would stop delivering the optional updates it releases in the latter part of the month that let admins test against systems before it releases its Patch Tuesday updates on the second Tuesday of each month.

The reason it’s not issuing optional or preview updates is to give admins a break over the holiday period when staffing resources could be stretched. It will resume these updates in January 2021.

Microsoft tests the newest versions of Windows 10 with users in the Windows Insider program before releasing them to the general public and it did that last week with the Windows 10 20H2 Build 19042.662 to the Beta and Release

Posted on November 27, 2020 by [email protected]_84

Microsoft Flight Simulator developer Asobo Studios has revealed plans to tweak the United Kingdom in its next World Update for the flight sim. Japan was the first area to receive a new lick of paint back in September, while a number of new airports and points of interest were added to the USA earlier this week.

In a recent Twitch stream, Asobo laid out its roadmap for future updates, and the UK is next on the list with World Update 3 due out on January 28. The British Isles are set to be spruced up now that the studio has a new set of data for England, Scotland, and Wales.

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla Update Drops Tomorrow, Full Patch Notes Detailed

Posted on November 26, 2020 by [email protected]_84

A new update for Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is set to go live on November 26 for Amazon Luna, PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Stadia, Xbox One, and Xbox Series S | Series X. Read on to find out what the update does, and check below for the full patch notes.

The main feature coming to Assassin’s Creed Valhalla thanks to Update 1.0.4 is the option to choose between Performance and Visual Quality modes on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series S | Series X. As their name suggests, Performance will run the game at 60fps while adapting resolution and graphic settings to maintain the frame rate, and Visual Quality holds the game at 30fps in order to reach “maximum resolution and graphic settings.” Ubisoft didn’t specify whether this means the game will run at 4K on next-gen hardware in Visual Quality mode. However, the studio did clarify that those on PlayStation

Software update for Fujifilm’s GFX100 turns it into a 400 MP camera

Posted on November 25, 2020 by [email protected]_84

With its 102-megapixel sensor, Fujifilm’s $10,000 GFX100 can already capture incredibly dense images that bring out tiny details in a subject. But with the help of new firmware and a technique called pixel shift multi-shot, the GFX100 can now capture 400-megapixel images.

As PetaPixel explains, to accomplish the feat the camera uses a combination of its 102-megapixel sensor and in-body stabilization. The latter component will move the sensor in tiny, 0.5-pixel increments while it captures 16 separate RAW images. Fuji’s new Pixel Shift Combiner software then stitches together those RAW files into a single 400-megapixel digital negative (DNG) images that apps like Capture One can edit.

As you might have guessed, a 400-megapixel image is substantially bigger than one of its 100-megapixel counterparts, with the former taking up as much as 200 megabytes when compressed into a JPEG file. The denser image is also more cumbersome
