The Kickboxer Luke – Street Fighter V’s Last New Character

Capcom revealed a new character to the Street Fighter universe during today’s Street Fighter V presentation. Luke will be the much-ballyhooed final fighter added to the five-year-old game.
Apart from a vague November release date, very few details were shared about Luke. It seems like Luke has a role to play in upcoming games. Street Fighter V director said that he provides “a glimpse into the future” of the Street Fighter franchise. But what that means remains a mystery until Capcom is ready to spill the beans.

Street Fighter V first launched in 2016 with a modest roster including series mainstays like Ryu, Chun-Li, Cammy, and Dhalsim; as well as surprise picks like Birdie, Nash, and R. Mika, all of whom hadn’t been playable since the Street Fighter Alpha days. It also featured some really neat newcomers, including F.A.N.G, a duplicitous, poison-wielding disciple of M. Bison; and Rashid, a high-flying Arab socialite who augments his combat abilities with a variety of high-tech gadgets.

Additional fighters, both returning and new to the series, were added post-release. Some notable inclusions were Abigail, a gigantic gang member who first debuted in the Final Fight beat-em-up franchise; and Menat, an acrobatic psychic apprentice with a deadly crystal ball. And before today’s reveal, Street Fighter V’s final season has seen infinite-wielding Dan Hibiki and fortune-teller Rose join the game; with Street Fighter III hermit Oro and Rival Schools guest Akira Kazama still waiting in the wings for their simultaneous August 16 release.

.

StreetFighter V has received considerable improvements both in terms of gameplay adjustments and online stability since its rough launch What started as an absolute disappointment compared to the series’ historical highs has since become another competent entry in the legendary franchise. In addition, Capcom’s focus on producing high-quality, lucrative tournaments across the world has allowed fans to turn from simple players into professional competitors; even if the spirit of the competition is much different than what’s seen at community-run, grassroots tournaments.
The StreetFighter V saga is inching closer to its conclusion with Luke’s reveal. I can’t tell what’s in store for the series. But with a new group of developers now leading the project after former Capcom executive Yoshinori Ono’s departure last year. It won’t be surprising if they take StreetFighter in an entirely new direction.

Instagram Reels can now be up to 60 second long

Instagram Reels can now be up to one minute long, double the previous 30-second time limit. After a month of launching Reels, Instagram quickly doubled it from a brief 15-second time cap. And now, Reels is nearly a year old, it seems it’s time for an update again.

Instagram Reels

TikTok has capped their videos at a minutes long until recently. It’s with that time constraint that the platform really blew up. So expanding short video limit is probably wise to give creators a little more space to work with on Instagram.
The longer limits were better for cooking videos, storytelling, and plenty more, and TikTok still maintained the app’s quick-flipping pace of programming.

Recentle, TikTok expanded its limit to three minutes for all creators. So it’s probably a matter of time before Instagram nudges its cap even further. Instagram has yet to share in detail how well Reels is doing, but Instagram’s leader, Adam Mosseri, said in January that “we have to be honest that TikTok is ahead.” For what it’s worth, I saw a ripped Instagram Reels video on TikTok for the first time recently, so that’s something.

All about Apple Watch Series 7

We are here to talk about the Apple Watch series 7 ‘s possible release date, price, colors and new health features. Let’s take a look on the Apple’s next-gen smart watch

Apple Watch Series 7 design

Every three years, Apple brings a redesign to its mobile devices. And for this year, it’s Apple Watch. In some rumors, the nwe Apple’s wearable will get a flat-edged design that brings it more in line with the iPhone, higher-end iPad, and iMac.

The leaker Jon Prosser claims to have seen renders of the upcoming Apple Watch, and has created his own images based on those renders. Prosser revealed that the device will come in a series of colors and that there may be smaller bezels around the display than previous-generation Apple Watches.


Bloomberg’s Mark German agrees with this speculation. Gurman’s sources also note that the watch may be “slightly thicker,” but that it won’t be a noticeable difference. If it means a larger battery, we’re completely fine with that trade-off.

Apple Watch Series 7 health tracking

Health tracking on the Apple Watch has been emphasized since its release. That’s unlikely to change any time soon. As on the Series 6, the device will sport the same fitness-tracking features. But it may add some new ones too. Chief among those could be blood glucose monitoring.

A few years now, rumors about blood glucose monitoring on the Apple Watch have been swirling. It proves that Apple is working on bringing that tech to the Watch. But on the Series 7, is it available?. ETNews’s report notes that blood glucose monitoring will be a standout feature of the Apple’s Smart Watch. However, a newer report from Bloomberg instead suggests that the tech may not be ready for the Series 7.
Some rumors have been hinting at the idea that Apple might be working on blood pressure monitoring as well. The Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 has a sensor for blood pressure monitoring, so it wouldn’t be that surprising to see it — especially given the fact that we’ve seen related patents from Apple.

Apple Watch Series 7 specs

The Apple Watch is already an incredibly functional smartwatch, and it takes years for the device to slow down and not be able to handle new software updates. Like in previous years, the Apple Watch Series 7 will likely get a spec-bump that makes it even more capable, and able to keep up with watchOS 8 and other related features from Apple.

Some rumors, like a report from DigiTimes, suggest that the new S7 chip will support a new double-sided System in Package (or SiP), which could give the device a serious battery life boost. We don’t really expect the battery to be larger, though.

Price and availability

Expected, the device will be released at around the same time as previous Apple Watch models. Also, the company will likely announce the device sometime around mid-September. Usually, Apple’s keynotes are on a Tuesday.

The device will probably be a similar price as previous-generation smart watch. In other words, it will start at around $399 for the entry-level 40mm model, or $429 for the 44mm model.

Chrome 92 is Available Now! What’s new?

Chrome 92 is Available Now! What’s new?

Google Chrome releases are now happening every four weeks. Which is cool for getting new features, but it means each version is lighter on those new features. Chrome 92 first made available on July 20, 202. The new Chrome’s version includes some interesting flags and updates for web apps.

Check Up on Website Permissions

Just like mobile apps, websites can require permissions but there’s not a convenient way to track which sites you’ve granted permissions. Now, you can see permissions to the safety controls panel in Chrome 92 for Android.

When yon tap the lock icon in the address bar, a panel that lists “Permissions” will be opened. If you select this entry, you’ll be able to see which permissions have been granted, and you can turn them off individually or reset them all.

New Chrome Action for Safety Checks

In version 87, Chrome Actions were revealed as quick shortcuts from the search bar. When you type “safety check” or “run safety check” in the address bar, you’ll see a shortcut to hop directly to Chrome’s Safety Check tool. The Safety Check will immediately run and saving you a lot of time.

Web Apps Can Handle Files

It’s common to get asked which app you want to use to open a file on your Android device. Now, you can see web apps as available options. You’ll be able to open files with web apps added via Chrome once the developers have added support for it.
This change is starting on Android, and it will come to Chrome on desktops as well soon. It is on the way making web apps feel more like native apps.

Better Transitions for Web Apps

Web apps are in process for better transitions, feeling like native apps. A new set of transitions will add some extra visual polish to web apps. This will also make things easier on developers, as they won’t have to create their own transitions anymore.

Memories: A New Way to See History

Every social network has “Stories” now and Chrome is joining in—kind of. The feature is called “Memories,” and it’s essentially a new way to search your history.

At the time of writing, Memories is a experiment available under a flag (chrome://flags/#memories) on the desktop. Once it’s enabled, you’ll see a brand new UI for your history.

We’re not exactly sure what this is for now. At this time, it shows a different history than what you see at chrome://history. This is clearly still a work in progress, but Google seems to have some plans for it.

“Follow” Websites Is More Widely Available

A feature called Web Feed appeared in the early versions of Chrome 92 for Android. It’s integrated into the Chrome browser and quite similar in concept to RSS feeds. Web Feed is now more widely available and fleshed out.

You can simply “Follow” a website from Chrome instead of finding an RSS feed and adding it to your RSS reader of choice. New content will be showed on the “New Tab” page under the “Following” tab.

Better Controls for PiP Video Calls

Most of the popular video meeting apps have their web versions that work in Chrome. Google has been working on improving its experience, and Chrome 92 adds some new controls for when you pop out the video into a picture-in-picture (PiP) window.

The PiP window now shows icons to toggle on your microphone and webcam. Plus, there’s a quick shortcut to end the call. You might not see them right away since these changes are still rolling out in Chrome 92.

What Else Is New?

Chrome 92 is another release that’s light on user-facing changes, but there’s always more going on behind the scenes. You can learn more about many of these changes on Google’s developer site as well as on the Chromium blog.
