GTA 6 first trailer release date

 


The long-awaited moment has arrived. Rockstar Games has officially revealed the release date for the highly anticipated first-ever trailer of the next installment in the Grand Theft Auto series. Set your calendars for December 5th at 9 am ET (7:30 pm IST) when fans will finally get their initial glimpse of GTA 6. With the immense success of GTA 5, one of the most commercially triumphant video games in history, expectations are soaring for the forthcoming sequel. Although details have been shrouded in secrecy, sparse official announcements, coupled with notable leaks in recent years, suggest that GTA 6 may transport players back to the streets of Vice City.

Rockstar Games initially fueled speculation in February when they confirmed the active development of GTA 6, discreetly mentioned during updates for GTA Online. Subsequently, leaked developmental footage surfaced a few months later, showcasing an early build of Vice City and featuring a playable female protagonist. Fans eagerly analyzed each frame, and the alleged hacker behind the leak, a British teenager who had also infiltrated Uber, was eventually tracked down and arrested.

In November, Rockstar announced a December window for the release of the game's first trailer, expressing excitement about sharing more experiences with players worldwide. The announcement acknowledged the incredible support from players, emphasizing that their passion has enabled the creation of games that have become integral to cultural entertainment. With the latest revelation, a definitive release date is now in sight.

Apple fixes 2 security vulnerabilities on iPhone, iPad & Mac

In response to two critical security flaws, Apple promptly took action by releasing security updates. These vulnerabilities impacted iPhone, iPad, and Mac devices and represented severe weaknesses in software that hackers exploited before the software creators were aware of them. The specific bugs were identified in WebKit, a web browser engine used in Apple's devices, allowing attackers to gain access to sensitive information and execute harmful code on vulnerable devices by deceiving users into visiting malicious websites. 

To address these security concerns, Apple issued emergency updates for devices running iOS 17.1.2, iPadOS 17.1.2, macOS Sonoma 14.1.2, and Safari 17.1.2. These updates incorporated enhancements to how the software verifies and secures data input, with the aim of preventing the exploitation of these vulnerabilities.

Clément Lecigne, a security researcher from Google's Threat Analysis Group (TAG), discovered and reported these zero-day vulnerabilities. While Apple has not confirmed any ongoing attacks exploiting these flaws, Google TAG researchers have a track record of uncovering and disclosing zero-day vulnerabilities used in targeted attacks, particularly against high-profile individuals like journalists and politicians. Apple's swift response is part of an ongoing effort, collaborating with security researchers, to safeguard devices and proactively prevent potential threats from compromising user data and privacy.

Nothing Phone (2) gets a price cut in India


Carl Pei has announced a substantial reduction in the phone's prices, slashing them by Rs 5,000. With these revised prices, the Nothing Phone 2 now competes with devices like the OnePlus 11R and Samsung's Galaxy S21 FE. Notably, the base variant with 8GB RAM and 128GB storage is now priced at Rs 39,999. Moving up to the 12GB+256GB model, this variant is available at Rs 44,999, while the top-tier 12GB+512GB flagship is priced at Rs 49,999.

To sweeten the deal further, Nothing is offering a special bonus – purchase the Phone 2, and you can acquire the 65W CMF Power GaN charger for Rs 1,999, a significant reduction from its regular price of Rs 2,999. Given that the Phone 2 doesn't include a charger in the package, securing this triple-charging-port accessory becomes an attractive option. It's worth noting that this charger can efficiently charge both the Phone 2 and many other daily gadgets simultaneously.

As for the specifications, the Nothing Phone 2, operating on Nothing OS 2.0 based on Android 13 OS, features a 6.7-inch full-HD LTPO OLED display with an adaptive refresh rate from 1Hz to 120Hz. Powered by Qualcomm's 4nm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC, the phone comes with up to 12GB RAM and a dual rear camera setup with a 50-megapixel primary camera and a 50-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera. For selfies, it includes a 32-megapixel camera. The distinctive Glyph Interface, with LED strips beneath the transparent back panel, adds a unique touch to the device, marking a standout feature. With storage options up to 512GB, the phone is supported by a 4,700mAh battery, offering 45W wired charging and 5W Qi wireless charging.

How to use Secret Code for Chat Lock in WhatsApp

WhatsApp has implemented a new feature called the secret code functionality to address a vulnerability in the security of personal chats. Previously, users could use the same fingerprint password for both unlocking their phones and accessing private WhatsApp conversations. This meant that if someone registered their fingerprint on your device, they could potentially gain access to your WhatsApp chats.

With the latest update, WhatsApp has significantly improved security by introducing the secret code feature to all users. This feature allows you to create a unique password using words or emojis, ensuring that your conversations are protected with a passcode known only to you. Interestingly, the company's top executive revealed that you can easily access locked chats by entering the secret code in the search bar, with the option to customize settings accordingly. Meta's CEO announced the introduction of a confidential code for chat lock on WhatsApp, providing users with the ability to protect their conversations with an exclusive password. With this new feature, locked chats will only be visible upon entering the secret code in the search bar, ensuring that no one accidentally stumbles upon your highly personal discussions.

To enhance the privacy of your WhatsApp chats, you no longer need to navigate through individual chat settings. Instead, you can conveniently lock a chat by long-pressing it. To ensure the confidentiality of your chats, access the list of locked chats, tap on the three dots at the top, proceed to Chat Lock settings, activate the 'Hide locked chats' option, and establish a secret code that you can easily recall. By following these steps, your locked chats will no longer be visible in the main chat window, offering a higher level of privacy compared to the current WhatsApp design, which displays a shortcut for locked chats when swiping down on the chat screen. To access your locked chats, input the secret code into the search bar. It's important to note that this visibility is only temporary and will disappear once you exit the app, providing a secure and private chat environment.
