Microsoft goes 'insane' with latest Xbox update 'SCORPIO'

So you think that you have been to the extremes of gaming experiences, what if I say, I don't think so. Believe me or not I have a new reason to say that after hearing about the latest Xbox update. The project 'SCORPIO' is all set to take you to the extremes of the gaming experiences. This is set to launch in June 2017 for consumers. Reportedly it is going to be the most powerful gaming console till date.  Let's see what specs it has to offer: Project Scorpio's CPU will feature 8 custom x86 cores clocked at 2.3GHz -- well above the original system's 1.75GHz, and even higher than the PS4 Pro's 2.1GHz.

Enhanced website loading with 'GUETZLI'

Weird name though but I am pretty much sure that this name will be an integral part of web fraternity in upcoming years. The question arises what is Guetzli and how would it become so important. Websites are an integral part of life now and who does not hate it if they tend to load slow, quite frustrating isn't it? As always Google has come to our rescue.  > What is GUETZLI ? Guetzli is an encoder developed by Google that allows JPEG files to be compressed as much as 35 percent, resulting in much faster Web page loading. "Guetzli," which means "cookie" in Swiss German, allows users to create smaller JPEG images while maintaining compatibility with existing Web browsers, image processing applications and the existing JPEG standard. > How does it enhance browsing speed? Guetzli produces a result similar to that of Google's Zopfli algorithm, which produces smaller PNG and gzip files without the requirement of a new file format. T...

Redhat and Ubuntu being the most common names heard, but this is not the end of the list, because in linux ecosystem the unheard names like Linux Mint, openSUSE have been widely used throughout the world from last 25 years around. The different flavours have outcasted each other in some or the other way, thus providing great platforms to work on for end users.

One of the reasons behind its popularity is the fact that up until version 17.x it included out of the box a lot of useful software (such as multimedia codecs). However, this ended with version 18, leaving it up to ...
