A Virtual Private Network Explained A Virtual Private Network is a network connection that enables you to create a secure connection to another location, thereby allowing you to appear as if you were in another place.

Twitter has now announced that Spaces will now be available on mobile and desktop web. This move doesn’t come as a surprise, though – after launching the Clubhouse-like audio chat room feature on IOS and Android, the obvious platform to consider next would be its web platforms. Twitter’s Spaces received a warm reception from users when it was launched, and, of late, has become even more popular than ClubHouse – the pioneer in the audio chat room space....

Summary The Android app is light and simple to use. Could have been better in terms of visual appeal but I guess form follows function. Chances are that the app is compatible with most versions of Android. We found navigation very easy and that was key since it makes sure you do not get lost or that you can get whatever you are looking for with ease. There is no iOS version yet, probably because the number of Umeme customers using iPhones versus the cost might not make sense but it’s Umeme they can afford....

As per evidence from agribusiness sectors in 12 countries in Sub-Saharan Africa, counterfeit (fake) agricultural inputs account for more than 30% of all retail agro-input purchases. Unscrupulous entrepreneurs produce counterfeit seed and pesticide packaging and then fill the packs with inferior products. Examples include regular grain coloured and sold as quality seed, or agro-chemicals mixed with water or other unknown substances and sold to farmers. The efficacy of counterfeit products may be low or non-existent, resulting in low crop yields, lack of confidence in improved inputs and low uptake and use of agro-inputs by farmers, which all goes towards contributing to food insecurity and poverty....

How about UMEME? With only 10% of Ugandans connected to the grid majorly in urban centres, it’s very unlikely that this figure will grow significantly because UMEME(and all the supply chain involved)–the power distribution company still can’t supply enough power for even the 10% alone! Instead I continuously hear of increasing power tariffs and load shedding by UMEME to meet the costs of distribution and make descent profits. Now if this is so in the urban areas, how about the rural areas?...

Important to mention at this point is that AOMedia’s successor to JPEG, AVIF can be viewed as an equal competitor to WebP. The WebP image format is also a sister format and a derivative of the WebM video format, also from Google. On average about 65% of data stored on websites comes from images.

Languages Supported Although the Alexa Live translation mode isn’t as robust as the likes of Google (with 27+ languages). Currently, Alexa supports about seven languages: English, French, German, Hindi, Italian, Spanish, and Brazilian Portuguese.

How to Use Alexa Live Translation Mode You can use the Alexa Live Translation mode to translate between two supported languages....

To start with, this is not something that should worry you any bit. That is because it will always occur when you use a newer Microsoft Office program to open a file that was created in an older version. What it does is to basically restrict you from using the newer features of your modern program. It might also change the appearance of your document, but that’s about it. The main reason for this is to ensure that older Microsoft Office documents continue to function properly....
