I can't properly judge the Pixel Tablet's performance in so short a time, but apps loaded quickly and I could swap between two split-screen apps with no lag. So what does the Pixel Tablet give you? The same Tensor G2 chip and 8GB of RAM as the Pixel 7, a 2560 x 1600 resolution, a side fingerprint sensor, and a better front camera thanks to Google's AI tricks. That had a last-gen chipset, a 60Hz refresh rate, no fingerprint sensor, and a poor selfie camera, and it made you pay extra for more than 4GB of memory. Mid-range tablets have to make compromises, but some of the tablets I've tested like the Galaxy Tab S7 FE made the wrong compromises. And that makes what Google managed to achieve with the Pixel Tablet even more impressive. ![]() If you consider that Google charges $130 for the Charging Speaker Dock, that essentially means that the $500 Pixel Tablet's components cost even less than you might think. Google found the right compromises for the Pixel Tablet And at least the Hazel and Coral color options stand out more than the boring Pro tablet colors you normally get. It lacks a signature feature like the Pixel phones' camera bar to make it stand out, but its rounded-edge look grows on you. Overall, I'd say the Pixel Tablet is comfortable to use, which matters more than its looks. And I could see it accidentally scratching a surface if your tablet gets shoved. But its narrowness will probably make it less sturdy if you prop it on a soft mattress or another uneven surface. It stays rigid at almost any angle, which is a good sign for its stability on hard surfaces. The only problem with it is that it adds an extra 9.3oz to the 17.3oz tablet, making it pretty darn dense for its size.Īs for the metal ring stand.I'm going to reserve judgment. Speaking of the silicone/polycarbonate case, it looks sturdy enough to handle falls, and it has tiny slots built-in to ensure the Tablet still charges when you mount it on the Dock. Including the Dock in the box was the right call even if it raised the Tablet's price by $100, since it makes an otherwise pedestrian tablet more noteworthy. ![]() Even though, in theory, moving your smart home hub from the living room to the bedroom at night is a cool use case. I don't think many people will buy multiple Docks for different rooms in the house, as Google clearly hopes you will. In other words, I'd say Google really designed the Charging Speaker Dock well. ![]() Generally speaking, the Pixel Tablet's usefulness will depend on whether or not you have Google Home-compatible cameras, thermostats, smart lights, smart locks, and other tech.īut I do like how easily you can access all of these controls, and that the Charging Speaker Dock ensures that your tablet isn't always dead or at low battery whenever you need it - a problem I typically have with my Galaxy Tab S8+ despite its excellent battery life. Google didn't have smart home tech set up to test the new Google Home app. (Image credit: Nicholas Sutrich / Android Central) Only you can take this alt-Hub display with you and start streaming movies on the couch, too. Audio is enhanced, you can quickly access Google Home controls, Google Assistant is always listening - it's the typical smart display experience you'd get on the Nest Hub Max. You magnetically attach the Pixel Tablet, and it goes into Hub mode. Instead, the whole Pixel Tablet experience is about the bundled Charging Speaker Dock, which (thankfully) I liked a lot. The Google engineer I spoke to said it was more for "casual productivity." In other words, Google isn't even trying to target the productivity crowd that might buy a Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra or Lenovo Chromebook Duet 3. The last time Google made a tablet, it was a ChromeOS device that our Pixel Slate review called a "pro tablet" but a "mediocre laptop." This time around, the Pixel Tablet uses Tensor instead of Intel, has no official keyboard accessory, makes you buy your own third-party USI stylus if you want one, and no equivalent to Samsung's DeX Mode. The game's long lifespan has resulted in a critical reappraisal, with reviews trending positively the negative and abusive in-game behavior of its players, criticized since early in the game's lifetime, persists despite Riot's attempts to fix the problem. League of Legends has received generally positive reviews critics highlighted its accessibility, character designs, and production value. In League 's main mode, Summoner's Rift, a team wins by pushing through to the enemy base and destroying their "Nexus", a large structure located within. During a match, champions become more powerful by collecting experience points, earning gold, and purchasing items to defeat the opposing team. ![]() Each of the ten players controls a character, known as a "champion", with unique abilities and differing styles of play. In the game, two teams of five players battle in player-versus-player combat, each team occupying and defending their half of the map. ![]() The game is available for Microsoft Windows and macOS. Since its release in October 2009, League has been free-to-play and is monetized through purchasable character customization. ![]() Inspired by Defense of the Ancients, a custom map for Warcraft III, Riot's founders sought to develop a stand-alone game in the same genre. League of Legends ( LoL), commonly referred to as League, is a 2009 multiplayer online battle arena video game developed and published by Riot Games. ![]() Again, this was all present in the original, but it comes off as even more impressive in 2021 when we’re accustomed to Pokémon games that either make you pay for DLC or write off the post-game entirely. Just like the originals, Brilliant Diamond and Shining pearl have tons of legendaries to track down, rematches with some of your toughest adversaries, sidequests, a whole extra island area after you finish the National Pokédex that’s full of challenging battles, and a wealth of additional Pokémon to catch that don’t appear until you’ve at least seen the first 150. The post-game is even more packed with things to find. Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl seem meatier for it, too, landing at around 40 hours if you’re at least dabbling in everything you come across, and longer if you dig in. As an old geezer in Pokémon terms, I’ve missed these gauntlets ever since the series phased them out in favor of shorter stretches, fewer distractions, and more healing breaks. Its story takes its time in a way the series has largely forgotten, sending you through personable little hamlets with smaller attractions and no gyms, as well as long, winding routes full of trainer battles that will have your Pokémon gulping potion after potion before you reach the next story destination. The fourth generation of Pokémon is stuffed with things to do, and so too then is Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. That may sound rather disappointing on paper, but in practice it’s just dang nice to revisit a simpler time in the Pokémon world without the 900-something Pokémon to keep track of or a bunch of weird, special mechanics – especially because it turns out that what the original Diamond and Pearl lack in modern complexity, they more than make up for in depth. Read the full Pokemon Diamond & PEarl review. ![]() The gameplay holds up incredibly well a decade later, but we're still looking like a 10-year-old portable game here. 8-bit limitations drove the game's original style, but now that the limits are no longer there it's a little bit of a letdown that Game Freaks played the whole Pokémon production conservatively instead of pushing something more epic. Sure, there are elements going on here that couldn't be done on the Game Boy Advance, but it's hard to argue that the game looks and sounds a heck of a lot like the past portable versions. The developers more capitalize on the system's capabilities in function and interface rather than visual and audio presentation. And the touch screen functions of the Nintendo DS help move things faster and easier with simple navigation menus. What We Said About Pokémon Diamond and PearlĪfter ten years of Game Boy Pokémon catching and battling, the core game mechanic still holds up as an addictive game design - tons of strategic depth and gameplay that's incredibly rewarding it's one of those games that offers an enormous sense of accomplishment for even the littlest things performed. There are no earth-shattering surprises, even after you beat the Elite Four and unlock the National Dex, and for the time being the Pokémon roster is limited to just the Pokémon that were available in Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum back in the day, so don’t expect newer favorites like Corviknight, Wooloo, or Toxtricity. Battling Down Memory Laneīrilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl tell the same story of a kid going on an adventure to catalog monsters before accidentally becoming the strongest fighter in the region and taking down an overt death cult with weird hair – you know, standard Pokémon stuff. Fortunately, Diamond and Pearl were pretty darn good games to begin with. Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl are, in almost every respect, meticulously faithful. It’s admittedly hard to look at Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl and not imagine that Game Freak and The Pokémon Company weren’t leaning forward in the back seat, frantically yelling directions. In its marketing materials, we were promised a “faithful remake” of 2006’s Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, and by Arceus, that’s what we got. ![]() On October 26, 2021, Cisco launched an update aimed to enhance virtual and hybrid in-person meetings and events, using AI-powered technology for their Webex portfolio. In September 2020, Cisco launched a new platform Webex Classrooms for virtual homeroom encounters. On May 15, 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Cisco CFO Kelly Kramer reported in the month of April 2020, they had 500 million meeting attendees, and that equated to 25 billion meeting minutes, using its video-conferencing application Webex. Cisco Webex enjoyed widespread use during the COVID lockdowns in education. In Greece, Cisco Webex was the only officially sanctioned software of its kind for such uses. ![]() Īn example of an online class conducted via Cisco Webex software. On this same date, Cisco rebranded all of the rest of their Spark products to Webex, including the Spark Room Kit-now Webex Room Kit-and Spark Board-now Webex Board. ![]() On April 18, 2018, Cisco announced that Cisco Spark would be combined into the Cisco Webex platform. On Mathis effort was re-branded as Cisco Spark. On November 17, 2014, Cisco announced an evolution of Webex called Project Squared. On September 26, 2006, the company announced plans to offer a web collaboration "mashup" platform called "Webex Connect". In July 2006, AOL and Webex launched a business version of AOL's instant messaging software, AIM Pro, with additional features to help workers collaborate using conferencing tools offered by Webex. The network was designed by Shaun Bryant, Webex's Chief Network Architect, and Zaid Ali Sr, Network Architect, to be one of the first SaaS platforms on the Internet. ( September 2020)Īt the time of the acquisition, all Webex applications were built on the MediaTone platform and supported by the Webex MediaTone Network (originally called the Webex interactive network), a global network intended for use with on-demand programs.

Hey Metronome’s speech recognition runs entirely on-device. “Hey Metronome: Now you can get hands-free metronome features while you practice and play – without worrying about privacy or needing signal.

While Hey Metronome excels in “invisible” mode, it is a multisensory app, providing haptic vibration feedback and a variety of visualizations of the beat, from flashing lights and numbers, to pulsing waveforms and scrolling timelines. When you are looking at Hey Metronome, we hope you’ll be inspired by an interface that focuses on one parameter at a time and reminds you of why you’re practicing in the first place. Just say, “Hey metronome set the tempo to 120,” “Hey metronome, shuffle,” or “Hey Metronome, next song,” and you’re off. With Hey Metronome, you can put your earbuds on and control everything with your voice, from tempo and meter, to beat patterns, to what song you are practicing. This gets even worse when you use a phone-based metronome, because each time you look at your phone, you are highly likely to be distracted. But time spent messing with gear, including a metronome, is time spent away from your instrument. When practicing your instrument, you want to stay focused and keep your hands on your musical instrument. Hey Metronome will become your best friend. Hey Metronome aims to change that experience in several ways so that practicing becomes fun again instead of being a soul-crushing taskmaster. For example, select 1/32 from the Snap size menu to quantize everything you play to 1/32 notes.Everyone knows that practicing with a metronome is the best way to improve musical skills, but no one really enjoys that experience.

Under an EUA, regulators must determine that the product “may be effective” and the “known and potential benefits outweigh the known and potential risks.” However, for the three COVID-19 vaccines, the FDA set up special, more rigorous EUA requirements that resemble the process for a BLA. ![]() Typically, the standards are less stringent for EUAs. Update, April 19, 2022: The FDA approved the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine on Jan. 27, 2021: The FDA approved the Pfizer/BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine on Aug. But Moderna and Johnson & Johnson - the makers of the other two authorized vaccines - still have not said when they will do the same. On May 7, Pfizer and BioNTech announced that they have initiated the final BLA approval process for their jointly-produced vaccine. have all received an emergency use authorization, or EUA, rather than the standard full licensure, which is called a biologics license application, or BLA. Full ApprovalĪs we have explained, the three COVID-19 vaccines available in the U.S. However, there remains some uncertainty about the legality of institutions mandating vaccinations using products that have not been fully approved by the U.S. The average was 3.53 required immunizations, for diseases such as hepatitis B and measles. colleges and universities found that 94% of them had at least one prematriculation immunization requirement for students. In addition, a 2017 survey of 129 of the top U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission implied that employers can have a mandatory vaccination policy, including for COVID-19, as long as employers comply with federal laws stipulating that reasonable accommodations should be made for workers who cannot be immunized because of a disability or religious reason.Įmployers also may be subject to collective bargaining agreements that require them to negotiate with employee unions before mandating vaccines as a condition of employment, as the nonpartisan Kaiser Family Foundation has noted.īut some employers - particularly in the health care industry - already have a history of requiring certain vaccinations, such as for influenza, for their workers. In updated guidance issued in December, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says : “Whether an employer may require or mandate COVID-19 vaccination is a matter of state or other applicable law.” There is no federal law that says vaccines cannot be required for employees or students. Other employers are requiring - or at least considering a requirement - that their workers be vaccinated against the disease, as well. FULL QUESTIONĭoes federal law prohibit employers and other institutions from requiring the COVID-19 vaccine? FULL ANSWERĪccording to a list maintained by The Chronicle of Higher Education, more than 200 colleges and universities are “requiring vaccines of at least some students or employees” ahead of the fall semester. But there is some uncertainty about the legality of mandating vaccines authorized for emergency use by the U.S. Q:Can employers, colleges and universities require COVID-19 vaccinations?Ī: Generally, they may require immunizations. |
