OontZ Angle 3 Coca-Cola Edition Bluetooth Speaker: Worth it at 25% off? by Paul Hill If you are looking for a portable Bluetooth speaker for yourself or for Father’s Day, check out this OontZ Coca-Cola branded Angle 3 Bluetooth speaker. Right now, you can pick it up for just $30, thanks to a recent 25% discount from the previous $40 price tag. Aside from the Coca-Cola branding, this speaker has a range of nifty features including a 100-foot range, a 14-hour battery, IPX5 water resistance, it promises no distortion of sound, and its shape ensures it won’t fall over. What it does (and doesn’t) The Oontz Bluetooth Speaker Angle 3 Coca-Cola Edition is super portable, making it an ideal choice for when you’re traveling. The speaker is just 5.3 inches long and weighs just 10 ounces. The width and height of the speaker are both under three inches and its triangular shape ensures it won’t fall over so you can put it down quickly whenever you’re out and about. According to OontZ, the speaker has 10 watts output that is “surprisingly loud” with “zero distortion” even when you turn it up to the max. These OontZ speakers are crafted by Cambridge Soundworks, a firm that has received critical acclaim since its inception in 1988. The firm is praised for delivering solid sound quality and construction - it makes some of the industry’s best speakers and offers excellent value for the price. As a travel speaker, it’ll probably end up on the beach or next to swimming pools where it can get wet. You don’t need to worry about splashing it though because it comes with IPX5 water resistance meaning it’s splash-proof, suitable for the shower, beaches, or the pool. While it will offer protection against splashes, it shouldn’t be submerged under water. On a single charge, the speaker will last for 14 hours on a single charge and connects to your device using Bluetooth 5.0. It has a good range of 100 feet so it shouldn’t become choppy just because you went into the next room with your phone. Should you buy? This OontZ Coca-Cola Bluetooth speaker is ideal for anyone who wants a great listening experience at home or on the go. It’s also a good choice for anyone looking for good sound on a budget as it’s now $30, which won’t break the bank. The main strengths of the speaker are its excellent value at the discounted price, reliable connectivity, and the good battery life considering its size. The fact that it’s from a reputable brand, Cambridge Soundworks, is also key. The iconic Coca-Cola branding may not be for everybody but it will definitely stand out with that vibrant red color. The IPX5 is also good to protect against splashes but it’s not fully waterproof, so if you need that, this speaker might not be for you.

GPUs selling higher than their MSRP is the new norm it seems. This shouldn't surprise anyone. Dumb duopoly, if Intel could just stop shooting itself in the foot and release some more cards and undercut the other two that'd be great. -

I saw that recently, and the thing that would be useful also would be to have the PC model in that spec card as well. I know that it's on the main portal page of System, but repeating it in this "Device specs" module, especially if it's meant for the main specs of the computer, would certainly be useful. -

Bethesda readying two updates for Oblivion Remastered targeting bugs and performance by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The surprise release of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered was a massive success for Bethesda and Microsoft, with the title going on to gain over four million players in just three days at launch while also breaking franchise records for concurrent players. While reactions to the game have been positive from both critics and players, plenty of complaints have since been pouring in about the state of the remaster. Now, Bethesda is aiming to push out updates to resolve these concerns. Today, the company revealed that two updates are currently planned for the RPG, both with different scopes. The first of these is already available in beta form to Steam players. It seems Bethesda is using the same beta update format it uses for Starfield for this Elder Scrolls entry as well. "Thanks for all your excitement and feedback since the launch of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered," said the development team today. "We are actively working on two separate updates to be launched in the coming weeks, both of which will come to our Steam Beta first, before being released to all other platforms." According to the studio, the first update is focused on "quests, major bugs and blockers, and quality of life fixes. " Following the June 5 launch on the Steam beta platform, all other PC players, as well as those on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Game Pass subscribers, will receive the update on June 11. The beta changelog for Update 1.1 can be seen here, with bug fixes coming for the UI, gameplay, quests, and more. Multiple crashes have been resolved here, with many being related to loading saves and exploring specific locations. Instances of infinite loading, alt-tab freezing, resetting settings, and more are being targeted with fixes, too. To opt into the Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered beta update, Steam players can head into the game's properties, select Betas, and choose the [beta] branch to receive the new build. While Bethesda hasn't revealed any release dates for the second update, it did say that improving performance will be its main focus. This is a major point of criticism for the title at the moment, so the update can't come soon enough.

Question

I've been reading about the vulnerabilities and security issues associated with java. Is programming in java (and to start learning java development) still hot these days or should I look into other languages?
