“Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart” (Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart), which has been confirmed to be launched on the PC platform on July 26, has been emphasized by NVIDIA that it will use DLSS 3 technology to speed up the game execution efficiency, and reduce screen delay performance through Reflex, and shorten game loading time through RTX IO. NVIDIA will introduce many technical applications into the PC version of “Ragette and Clark: Rift in Time and Space”. “Ragette and Clark: Rift in Time and Space”, which was originally launched exclusively on the PlayStation 5 platform, is brought to the PC platform by Sony’s Insomniac Games and Nixxes Software. The PC version will additionally add real-time light and shadow tracing effects, and can also use external scene ray tracing shadow technology to make the shadow performance of the game scene more realistic. On the other hand, the PC version also supports special display ratios such as 21:9, 32:9 or 48:9, so as to satisfy more ultra-wide screen gaming experience. The PC version integrates NVIDIA technology, which can improve the image quality with artificial intelligence, and can even achieve a screen performance of over 140 fps on desktops using GeForce RTX 4080 and GeForce RTX 4090 graphics cards. It also includes Reflex technology that can reduce latency by 48%, and speeds up game loading through RTX IO technology. In addition to supporting NVIDIA’s technology, the PC version of “Lagette and Clark: Rifts in Time and Space” also supports AMD FSR 2, Intel XeSS, and Insomniac Games’ Temporal Injection technology, so that PC devices that are not equipped with NVIDIA graphics card products can also have certain screen performance.More Mashdigi.com reports: Microsoft launched a limited-edition Xbox controller with pizza and flavors in conjunction with the movie “Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mutants” Sony launched a new generation of true wireless noise-cancelling headphones WF-1000XM5, smaller in size, enhanced noise-cancelling effect through dual chips Co-founded by the CEO of OpenAI, the cryptocurrency project Worldcoin, which combines iris recognition to verify real identity, is officially launched

2023-07-25 18:05:12
ALGIERS- A memorandum of understanding was signed on Tuesday in Algiers between the National Bank of Algeria (BNA) and the General Directorate of Taxes (DGI) to pay tax fees online via the “Moussahamatic” portal.
The memorandum of understanding was signed at the headquarters of the Ministry of Finance, under the supervision of the Minister of Finance, Laaziz Faid, by the Director General of the BNA, Mohamed Lamine Lebbou and the Director General of Taxes, Amel Abdelatif.
The purpose of this agreement is to launch the E-payment service (electronic transfer) via an interface that will be created for the declaration and remote payment of tax fees on the “Moussahamatic” portal and linked to the BNA E-Banking platform.
In addition, the agreement will ensure a free business card dedicated to taxpayers to enable them, exclusively, to fulfill tax obligations, while setting an exceptional payment ceiling on the “Moussahamatic” portal.
Mr. Faid, on this occasion, affirmed that this partnership intervened within the framework of the reinforcement of the strategic links between the two parties able to accelerate the digitization of the finance sector and to develop financial inclusion and banking services, according to the objectives set.
“This is a positive step capable of developing and generalizing e-payment tools, strengthening the digitization of tax administration and improving the performance and management of activities and services in the finance sector,” said the country’s first treasurer.
“Today, we have succeeded in setting a new milestone in the process of reform and modernization of public finances”, continued the Minister, reiterating his thanks to all the actors in the matter “for their efforts in supporting the digital transition of the tax administration as well as the banking sector and the consolidation of cooperation between all the parties concerned”.
Speaking on the occasion, the CEO of the BNA called this agreement “the first of its kind” in the context of the digitalization of the bank in particular and the finance sector in general.
This partnership, adds Mr. Lebbou, will allow “the payment of tax royalties of up to 50 million DA, stressing that “the payment transaction is 100% secure”.
For its part, the DG of Taxes called for a better application of the E-payment service via the electronic transfer launched today with the BNA thus facilitating the procedures of tele-declaration and E-payment.

Brussels Bombings Trial: Verdict Reveals Revised Death Toll and Impact on Survivors
2023-07-25 17:36:00
When we drew up the human toll of the attacks of March 22, 2016 in Zaventem and Maelbeek, the commonly accepted figure was 32 dead: 16 dead at the airport and 16 dead in the metro station.
It will now be necessary to review this figure and establish it as follows following the judgment delivered on Tuesday by the Assize Court: 18 dead in Zaventem and 17 dead in Maelbeek.
Ten of the people injured during this disastrous day of March 22, 2016 have since died. For the federal prosecution, the cause of death of four of these missing might be one of the consequences of the attacks. They were two men and a woman who were present at the airport on March 22, 2016 and a man who was on the metro trains in Maelbeek. The prosecution had therefore requested, for these 4 victims, a reclassification of attempted murder in a terrorist context as murder in a terrorist context. The jury finally accepted this requalification for three of them.
Brussels bombings trial: Abdeslam, Abrini and four other defendants found guilty of terrorist killings
Three victims of Zaventem
Mathieu Fischer had only been saved because he had been protected from the shrapnel of the bomb by other victims closer to the impacts. He had developed intense post-traumatic stress. Tinnitus kept him from sleeping more than three hours a night. On April 18, 2021, unable to take it anymore, he ended his life. He was 53 years old.
Alongside these 35 murders, the main defendants of the assize trial were also found guilty of 526 attempted murders in a terrorist context in Zaventem and 165 attempted murders in a terrorist context in Maelbeek.
Shanti De Corte had not been affected by the impacts of the bombs at the airport from where, with the pupils of her class, she was to leave for a school trip to Rome. But, already fragile, she had not been able to overcome this ordeal. She had been hospitalized for a long time in psychiatry. She had chosen euthanasia and left on May 7, 2022. She was 23 years old.
Few elements had filtered regarding Yves De Coster, who was 58 years old during the attacks of March 22, 2016. There was also no civil action once morest him. The jury must have felt that there was too much doubt and did not follow the federal prosecutor’s request for reclassification, contrary to what it decided for the other victims.
A victim in Maelbeek
The case of Xavier Legrand is somewhat different. He was present in the metro on March 22, 2016. He was then undergoing advanced treatment to treat cancer. The explosion had caused him significant wounds. To treat them, he had been forced to stop taking his cancer drug because it was causing bleeding. This suspension had a negative influence on the evolution of his cancer. He died on October 28, 2017 at the age of 49.
Alongside these 35 murders, the main defendants of the assize trial were also found guilty of 526 attempted murders in a terrorist context in Zaventem and 165 attempted murders in a terrorist context in Maelbeek.
