Apple is giving developers some breathing space to get ready for an update to iOS 14 which will let users opt out of being tracked for advertising purposes. The update was originally supposed to be released as part of iOS 14, which is expected to roll out some time this month. In a statement on Thursday however, Apple said it's delaying this particular part of the update until 2021. "We want to give developers the time they need to make the necessary changes, and as a result, the requirement to use this tracking permission will go into effect early next year," Apple said in blog post on Thursday. When Apple originally announced the privacy update it drew the rancor of developers who said it could wreak havoc with their ad revenue streams. Facebook said the update could slash revenues from its Audience Network ad network by up to 50%. Facebook said the change might even mean it stops developing Audience Network for iOS altogether. "This is not a change we want to make, but unfortunately Apple's updates to iOS 14 have forced this decision. We know this may severely impact publishers' ability to monetize through Audience Network on iOS 14, and, despite our best efforts, may render Audience Network so ineffective on iOS 14 that it may not make sense to offer it on iOS 14 in the future," Facebook said in a blog post on August 26. Separately, Apple and Facebook have been engaged in a bun fight over the commission Apple takes off in-app payments. Facebook asked Apple to waive its usual 30% commission as part of an update that would let users buy tickets to Facebook events in-app. Apple refused, and Facebook tried to add a note for iOS users alerting them to the fact that 30% of their payment would be going to Apple. Apple then blocked Facebook's update including this note on the grounds it contained "irrelevant information," Facebook told Reuters. |
| No, you don't need PCIe 4.0 for the new GeForce RTX 3090 graphics card - TweakTown Posted: 03 Sep 2020 07:25 PM PDT NVIDIA addressed some concerns over whether the new 8K 60FPS capable GeForce RTX 3090 graphics card would have any issues in a PCIe 3.0 slot, given the card is PCIe 4.0 compatible.  VIEW GALLERY - 2 IMAGES The answer is no -- you will be fine, senior vice president of content and technology at NVIDIA, Tony Tamasi, explains on Reddit: "System performance is impacted by many factors and the impact varies between applications". He continued: "The impact is typically less than a few percent going from a x16 PCIE 4.0 to x16 PCIE 3.0. CPU selection often has a larger impact on performance.We look forward to new platforms that can fully take advantage of Gen4 capabilities for potential performance increases". If you thought you needed a new PSU, think again -- you should be fine says NVIDIA.  |
| Microsoft Teams just added a key new feature - ZDNet Posted: 04 Sep 2020 04:09 AM PDT Microsoft has moved its new app Microsoft Lists to generally availability as an add-on to its popular Teams collaboration and video-meeting app. This means the new Lists app, which it announced at Build 2020, is now available to all of Microsoft 365 commercial and Government Community (GCC) customers who use Teams. The Lists app is a 'team-based tab app' for tracking information that's built on the Microsoft Teams platform. It represents Microsoft's efforts to shape Teams for different verticals, with a focus on industries with compliance requirements, such as healthcare, banking, and government, but also for other verticals. SEE: Top 100+ tips for telecommuters and managers (free PDF) (TechRepublic) General availability means Lists is immediately available to at least 75 million daily active users of Teams – a figure Microsoft revealed at its Q3 FY2020 earnings in late April. Teams was given a major boost from mass remote working at the outset of the coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic. In March, Teams had 44 million daily active users, but the company didn't offer an update on daily active users at its Q4 FY 2020 earnings in July. Lists offers a system of columns and rows like a spreadsheet but with tweaks to improve organization, collaboration, and customization. Microsoft hopes it helps users keep abreast of the most important issues a team needs to work on. It's versatile enough to be used for tracking patients, loans, issues, assets, routines, contacts, inventory and more thanks to its customizable views, smart rules and alerts, according to Microsoft. There are also pre-made templates for creating lists from within Teams that are then accessible on the Teams mobile app via a Lists tab that users can add as a channel. "The vision of the Lists app in Teams is to bring all the collaboration and communication modalities to lists and list items, so it is easy to get work done," says Ansuman Acharya, a product manager in Microsoft's healthcare division. The Lists app has five key capabilities:
Healthcare organizations can use Lists to conduct patient rounding, multi-disciplinary huddles and discharge planning. Government agencies can use Lists to track incidents and manage incident response, while loan officers at a bank can use the app to track a set of loans or collaborate on moving an application to approval. Users can also start a conversation about an individual item on a list.

From there, the Lists app can be accessed from the tab gallery. Lists is available on the Teams app for Android and iOS, as well as the web and the desktop app.  |
