The series of leaks about Apple's new iPhones begin
Apple's new iPhones are likely to be introduced in September, but the series of leaks have already started.
According to a report by 9 to 5 Google, Apple will focus
more on improving battery life than computing power in the iPhone 15.
A17 processor will be used for this purpose.
According to Apple's chipmaker TSMC, the iPhone 15's
processor will prioritize battery life over performance.
Based on TSMC's 3nm technology, this processor will be part
of the iPhone 15 series.
Currently, iPhone 14 Pro models are using processors based
on 5nm technology.
The 2023 iPhone models are also likely to feature a USB
Type-C port for charging for the first time.
Similarly, the price of the iPhone 15 and 15 Plus can also
be reduced compared to iPhone 14 and 14 Plus.
This is due to iPhone 14 Plus sales not meeting
expectations.

A new record for generating electricity from solar cells
Berlin: Solar energy is considered to be one of the cheapest sources of renewable energy and is of utmost importance to tackle the climate crisis.
Recently, researchers have announced a breakthrough in solar
energy, setting a new record for solar cell efficiency.
Solar cell efficiency is the amount of energy a solar cell
makes using sunlight. Technological innovation in the past decade has
dramatically increased this solar cell capacity. But now this achievement is
being hailed as a big step towards clean energy.
Researchers at the Helmholtz Zentrum Berlin (HZB) used a
unique cell technology and generated electricity using 32.5 percent of solar
radiation.
Professor Steve Ulbrecht said that this is a major
development that we could not have seen until a few months ago. All the teams
involved in HZB worked together and achieved success.
He said that perovskite/silicon tandem technology is very
effective for sustainable energy supply which we are excited to know.
According to a statement issued by the university, this
record has been independently verified by the European Solar Test Installation
in Italy.
Snapchat gave a piece of big news to the users

The inventor of the World Wide Web came forward to protect the data privacy of Internet users
The Internet has come a long way since its invention in 1989, and in this era of growing concern about the privacy of Internet users, Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the World Wide Web, has once again come forward to reclaim our control over our data.
Tim Berners-Lee has developed a 'Solid Pod / Personal Online
Data Store' under his startup Interrupt, which will allow people to store and
access their data in one place instead of multiple applications and websites.
What applications or people can access their data?
In this regard, Tim Berners-Lee says that users can buy a
Pod powered by the web service Amazon or, if they have a little technical
understanding, run it themselves. Ensuring privacy and self-control over it.
They say that with this pod, not only your data is protected
from big corporations and governments, but it will also be protected from being
stolen by hackers.
Berners-Lee said, "I think we've come to realize that
the importance of the web is because of the data on it, which is not only like
a big warehouse, but also profitable for attackers, and this new Nowadays you
are worried about the security of your data.
Tim Berners-Lee hopes that the platform will give internet
users back their lost control over data.
He believes that people are very concerned about their
privacy, and in fact, internet platforms not only have access to a lot of data,
but also misuse it.
"I think people are helpless in the face of these
corporations and they don't have enough power to stop it, so they need to be
put back in a position where they have complete control and authority over
their data," he says. .

the crackdown against Chinese companies, after the approval of the House of
Representatives, the bill will be sent to the President for signature.

the American initiative and said that the allegations of espionage and data
transfer against it are baseless and based on lies.

In this regard, the Tik Tok management says that they are
ready to discuss the company's practices with policymakers.
