When Does Apple’s Emergency SOS via Satellite Feature Start to Work? What Problems Will You Face While Using It? Emergency SOS will be available whenever you do not have any Wi-Fi or cellular connectivity. It is imperative to know that, for the time being, you can only send emergency messages and not make calls. Maybe Apple will implement call functionality, but this is what you get for now. The feature will not work indoors, so when using any iPhone 14 model, you will have to be outside, under the open sky, with plenty of space around you for the handset to start communicating with satellites....

The biggest addition introduced by the new versions of both games is AMD FSR 2.1 support, which offers better visual quality and performance over version 2.0. The introduction of support for the latest version of AMD’s upscaling technology, however, breaks the DLSS mod for both games, which will now need to be updated to work again.

It seems pretty clear that this Lego-Epic partnership is an attempt to challenge other popular online kids games like Minecraft and Roblox, which are no doubt planning their own metaverse expansions. If Epic can truly deliver a kid and family-friendly environment, they could potentially steal some serious market share as Roblox, and to a lesser extent Minecraft, are already a bit of a cesspool. That said, the state of Epic’s own Fortnite (a game played by far too many young children who really shouldn’t be) doesn’t fill me with a huge amount of confidence....

Well, now some modders are going beyond implementing FSR 2.0 in games, they’re also tinkering with its functionality. Redditor Muddymind decided to alter the FSR 2.0 SDK to turn off upscaling. In theory, this would turn FSR into something more akin to NVIDIA’s Deep-Learning Anti-Aliasing (DLAA). For those unfamiliar, DLAA doesn’t focus on performance by upscaling a lower-res native image, but rather, starts with a full-resolution image and focuses on producing the best quality anti-aliased result....
