Realme Narzo 50A Prime Will be Launched With 5000mAh battery And 18W Fast Charging Support

Chrome OS 98 wordt nu uitgerold met nieuwe emoji, sneltoetsen op het virtuele bureau, tweaks voor schermopname en meer
Na een korte vertraging begint Chrome OS 98 uit te rollen naar het stabiele kanaal. De nieuwe release brengt een handvol veranderingen met zich mee, waaronder nieuwe emoji, uitgebreide sneltoetsen voor virtuele bureaus en een gereviseerd menu met taalinstellingen voorafgaand aan de grote mijlpaal van 100. De uitrol naar momenteel ondersteunde Chromebooks is begonnen, hoewel het even kan duren voordat alle apparaten deze hebben.
Google heeft ons nog niet vereerd met een grote blogpost waarin de functies van Chrome OS 98 worden benadrukt, maar de meeste wijzigingen zijn al goed gedocumenteerd, waaronder veel die Chrome 98 zelf heeft gekregen. Dat omvat een nieuw lettertypeformaat voor scherpere en mooiere emoji, een verbeterde PWA-ervaring en een nieuwe privacygids – de nieuwe screenshot-tool in Chrome 98 is gekoppeld aan de sharesheet en is mogelijk niet aanwezig in Chrome OS, maar er is een nieuwe “opslaan in” menu voor schermopnames om een schijf of map te kiezen, en ondersteuning voor netwerkgebaseerd herstel op sommige apparaten.
Hoogtepunten op hoog niveau voor Chrome OS-specifieke toevoegingen (van AP-bijdrager Kent Duke’s letterlijke weken van waden door duizenden broncodewijzigingen) staan hieronder:
Emoji-kiezer update naar emoji 14.0 – dat betekent nieuwe emoji
Gereviseerde taalinstellingen
Op netwerk gebaseerd herstel
Nieuwe sneltoetsen voor virtueel bureau
Donkere modusvlag voor het virtuele toetsenbord
“Opslaan in” instellingen voor schermopname
Chrome Files-app SWA krijgt volledige ondersteuning voor donkere thema’s
Verbeterde scrollprestaties in ARC-apps bij gebruik van een muis
Zoeken in Google Play Store uitgeschakeld in launcher
Bovendien zijn er letterlijk honderden kleinere wijzigingen, waaronder talloze bugfixes die alles aanpakken, van willekeurig crashende dingen in Linux met slepen en neerzetten tot het automatisch verlenen van USB-toegang voor smartcardconnectoren en -lezers via WebUSB. Dit sluit verder verschillende functies uit die via optionele vlaggen zijn geland en nog niet helemaal “stabiel” zijn. Ruisonderdrukking – een optionele vlag om omgevingsgeluiden die door de microfoon worden opgenomen te verminderen, handig voor Meet- en Zoom-gesprekken – was oorspronkelijk gepland om te landen als onderdeel van Chrome OS 98, maar is naar een latere release geduwd.
Oorspronkelijk dachten we dat Chrome OS 98 op 3 februari zou worden uitgerold, maar Google hield de stabiele release tegen, ook al waren er geen bugs die als ernstig genoeg werden bestempeld om de release tegen te houden.
Hoewel we hadden gehoopt dat Chrome OS 98 het subtiel nieuwe Chrome-logo zou leveren , lijken onze eigen tests aan te tonen dat het nog steeds het oude gebruikt – toegegeven, je zou moeilijk het verschil kunnen zien. Ik verwacht dat Google het nieuwe logo en de meeste grote nieuwe functies in de komende releases zal houden voor de veel meer verkoopbare Chrome OS 100-release.
Chrome OS 98 wordt momenteel uitgerold naar verschillende populaire apparaten, waaronder het eigen Google Pixelbook van het bedrijf, maar nog niet de Pixelbook Go.
Google Chrome Has Finally Changed its Logo After Eight Years
Google is very active this year when it comes to app updates. First, they come up with an update Gmail layout and now they are coming up with updated Google Chrome logo after eight long years. But the difference is very hard to tell as the change is very minute. But if you will look at it closely you will be able to distinguish between the old one and the updated one.
The newly updated logo has got some bright colors and a large blue circle in the center without shadows. The colors are very vibrant this time after eliminating the previous shadows. Google is tweaking the main Chrome logo further in order to look more at home on Windows, MacOS and iOS. On the ChromeOS, the colors of the logo look more vibrant to complement to other system icons while on macOS, the logo provides a 3D look. On the other hand the colors in Windows 10 and 11 are more darker towards the bottom.

Twitter is Working on Tweets Without Character Limit
Most of the social media platforms like Instagram, WhatsApp, Messenger and Gmail have brought many impressive changes this year. Now Twitter is also planning to come up with a big change as they are about to break the 280 characters limit per tweet.
According to Jane Manchin, a renowned reverse engineering expert, the company will soon introduce Twitter Articles feature. She also shared a screenshot of the Twitter web interface in one of her tweets. The image show the text “No articles yet” and “Create a Twitter Article” which says that users will soon be able to post long articles on Twitter.
At the moment, users can only tweet with 240 character limit per tweet and user can tweet longer ones with the help of threads. However with the new feature users will be allowed for longer text in a single tweet. Currently this feature is not accessible to the users and it is still not yet confirmed that when this feature will be available. Twitter has said that they will reveal all the details about Twitter Articles in the near future. In 2006 when, Twitter was launched, the character limit for a tweet was 140 which was later doubled to 280 in 2018.
