Stieglitz spoke with the Daily Express about Scorpio’s VR potential, saying that the console seems powerful enough to support it, and - more importantly - do it well. “It looks plenty powerful enough to support [virtual reality] and have it look really good,” Stieglitz said. “It’s just a matter of getting our hands on the console and seeing what we can achieve with it.” So even though Stieglitz is confident in Scorpio’s ability to support virtual reality, it’s worth noting that the ARK: Survival Evolved team at Studio Wildcard apparently hasn’t received a development kit yet to test it out....

Unlike the European competition with the same name, the CONCACAF Champions League still uses the away goals rule for all two-legged matchups in the competition. However, there is one notable exception. The CONCACAF Champions League final, which has reverted back to a two-legged matchup after being contested in just one 90-minute match for the 2020 and 2021 tournaments, will not count away goals. Away goals are used as a tiebreaker for the Round of 16, quarterfinals and semifinals....

Trump disputed his election defeat, saying Biden only received more votes because of fraudulent and illegal ballots that were cast. His legal team has fought in vain to overturn results in several states and now that Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs has certified the results, the president’s campaign will have five days to contest the results. “Despite the unprecedented challenges, Arizonans showed up for our democracy,” Hobbs said on Monday....

The poll, published by Emerson College on Friday, found Masters with support from 48 percent of voters and Kelly with 47 percent. The poll surveyed 1,000 people and has a margin of error 3 percent. The polling noted, however, that 1 percent of voters are undecided, and given the margin of error, the race is statistically tied. Up until Friday’s poll, Masters had yet to surpass Kelly in public opinion surveys, though the two candidates had been tied in several polls....

Trump will be in Arizona on Saturday to headline a Republican “Rally to Protect Our Elections.” His visit to Arizona, a state he lost to President Joe Biden in November, comes as a GOP-led audit of election results in Maricopa County continues. Trump and his allies allege that significant fraud took place during the presidential election in November in a number of states, including Arizona. In a CNN interview yesterday, Hobbs said that Trump’s planned visit to the state is “dangerous”...

Arkane Studios, like Bethesda, was a property of ZeniMax Media until Microsoft acquired ZeniMax, so Arkane got integrated into Xbox Game Studios at the same time as Bethesda Games Studios. That means the Xbox exclusive Redfall parallels Bethesda and Starfield’s transitions into Xbox exclusivity. However, that’s not the only way that Redfall resembles Bethesda proper. Oddly enough, Redfall has a weird connection to a major Elder Scrolls 6 leak that took the internet by storm in the middle of 2020....

With that popularity comes, of course, intense speculation and whispers as to what will come next in this ever-expanding universe. The continual teases of Thanos, for example, where the purple villain appeared in The Avengers in 2012 before showing up in Guardians of the Galaxy (2014) and Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015), led to an immense amount of rumors and fan theories as to when the inevitable matchup with Earth’s mightiest heroes will occur....

How Do Self-Driving Cars Work? Self-driving cars use an array of sensors and control systems to automate the process of driving. Some are more automated than others, but most self-driving cars allow for the manual takeover of controls. Self-driving cars build on technologies that have been on the road for years. Examples of these technologies include adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assistance, and automated braking. The technologies behind self-driving cars are referred to as advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS)....

That being said, Persona’s identity as a franchise was cemented rather recently. Indeed, it only got rid of the Shin Megami Tensei label when Persona 4 Arena came out in 2012. This makes Persona 5 the only installment in the series to not be associated with Shin Megami Tensei as a label. Considering how much the series has changed, deciding whether or not it’s worth checking out the older Persona games, specifically the first three, is debatable....

Joji, real name George Kusunoki Miller, first announced the limited event on his social media platforms on Monday with a comedic video that featured the 28-year-old preparing a minion costume for the event. The look appears to follow the Extravaganza theme…or at least a version of it. From Joji’s website, the digital event looks like a horror-themed, Halloween performance to capture the best aspects of October. If the minion costume will make an actual appearance is unknown, but fans remain hopeful....

With TikTok bearing the brunt of the spyware allegations, should you begin removing Chinese apps from your smartphone? Are Chinese apps stealing your data? Why Is the US Banning Chinese Apps? For a long time, Chinese-developed apps and software have been suspected of acting as spyware. These apps allegedly collect user data, which is sent back to the Chinese government via technology corporations. Many suspect the tech companies are working hand in hand with the Chinese government, given the political structure in the country....

So, what is technological unemployment, what industries is it affecting, and are you at risk? What Is Technological Unemployment? Technological unemployment is a phenomenon wherein people lose their jobs because of technological advancements and changes. This wave of technology replacing human employees centers around the idea of machine muscle. Essentially, machines are easier and cheaper to use than human beings. While the initial construction of the machine may be pricey, a machine doesn’t require a salary, it won’t complain about workplace issues, and it’ll essentially be the perfect, obedient employee....

But did you know you’re doing the same when betting futures? And unlike single games, the juice varies widely. Often times, you’re getting screwed. A friend of mine texted me a few weeks back and said he liked the Yankees to win the World Series, but his book was only giving him 10-to-1, which isn’t all that unreasonable out of context. Maybe that book just likes New York more than some other teams....

Spain, unbeaten since the summer of 2016, impressed in a 1-1 draw away to Germany on Friday, while Argentina had beaten Italy in Manchester despite an injury to their talisman. Messi had looked set to return in this match after he was passed fit by coach Jorge Sampaoli in Monday’s pre-match press conference, but the Barca forward felt discomfort later that evening and decided earlier on Tuesday that it would not be wise to play....

Houston, June 22 (IANS) Argentine forward Ezequiel Lavezzi will miss the final of the Copa America football tournament on Sunday after he suffered an elbow fracture in the semi-final against the US. Lavezzi, who on Tuesday scored the game’s opener inside four minutes, was forced off in the second half of their 4-0 win against the US after landing awkwardly when he tumbled over an advertising board here. The Argentine leapt up for a header but was too close to the hoardings, appearing to land badly on his neck....

Argentina won 6-3 on that occasion and have only lost four of their 31 meetings with El Tri — and their need for victory against a team familiar from their Copa America campaigns has perhaps never been greater. While Mexico picked up a point in their opener against Poland, the side captained by Lionel Messi suffered one of the most stunning upsets of all time as Saudi Arabia came back to beat them 2-1....

The 13-bed hospital has closed its operating room, opting to allow those nurses to care for inpatient cases, which meant they had to cancel 17 colonoscopies Tuesday, according to The Associated Press. The decision by the small hospital reflects the current state of affairs across Arizona and in many parts of the country as hospitalizations are increasing across several states as the holidays approach. Hospital executives and public health officials held a press conference Tuesday encouraging Arizona residents to get vaccinated and take other measures to prevent the spread of COVID during the holidays....

Arizona has seen a sharp spike in coronavirus cases since the end of May, two weeks after it lifted its stay-at-home order and began reopening. As the number of intensive care unit beds available in the state has decreased, hospital capacity has increased to meet the demands of confirmed cases. A month ago, the state’s ICU capacity was 68 percent full on May 11. The gradual increase in capacity reached 76 percent last week and 79 percent on Wednesday before Thursday’s new high....

No injuries have been reported, while an estimated 25 to 30 homes were destroyed by the blaze dubbed the Spur Fire. Fueled by dry grass and brush, the fire has burned 150 acres of land since it broke out Thursday afternoon, the Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office said in a Thursday evening post on Facebook. Fire crews have stopped the forward progress of the blaze, which was 25 percent contained, as of late Thursday, according to the Arizona Department of Forestry and Fire Management (AZ State Forestry)....
