Microsoft showing of its new xbox one dashboard

Microsoft revealed last week that it’s planning to rebuild the Xbox One dashboard with a focus on speed. While the software giant revealed common tasks will be faster, Mike Ybarra, head of platform engineering for Xbox, has now teased exactly what the new dashboard will look like. Microsoft is adding a new Xbox button part of the guide that slides into view, with the ability to quickly switch between recent apps or games without having to navigate back to the home of the dashboard.

This subtle change could speed up the Xbox One dashboard significantly. One of the big issues of the current guide is heading back to home and watching the entire system slow down and lag, or refresh randomly. The new guide is accessible with a single button press, and it appears the old home concept will be replaced entirely with this quicker method. That should make the Xbox One guide a lot more like the Xbox 360 version, and just easier to use in general. Windows Central has captured the brief demo of the new dashboard, below.

Ybarra only quickly showed the main guide feature, but Microsoft is also adding a new achievement tracking overlay, Gamerscore leaderboard, music controls, and a new Cortana design. Microsoft is expected to start testing this new dashboard with Xbox One Preview members in the coming weeks, before releasing it to every console this spring.

What is ARP Monitor?

ARP MONITOR It’s FREE  tool like arpwatch but for Windows OS. This tool can help with ARP activity monitoring in computer networks.   It allows you to catch intruders on the network, track MAC-IP bundles, detect scans, monitor real-time ARP protocol activity in the segment, and much more. This windows software monitors ethernet activity like unix apwatch and keeps a database of ethernet/ip address pairings. new activity - This ethernet/ip address pair has been used for the first time. new station - The ethernet address has not been seen before. flip flop - The ethernet address has changed from the most recently seen address to the second most recently seen address. changed ethernet address - The host switched to a new ethernet address.  Download :   Mirror: http://www.binaryplant.com/binaryplant-arp-monitor.exe

Intel's extra-fast 3D storage comes to your desktop PC

It didn't take long for Intel's 3D  Optane storage  to reach a product you can realistically buy. The chip maker has  introduced  Optane modules designed to boost the performance of your desktop PC. They're strictly cache drives that only hold 16GB or 32GB (the server module packs 375GB), but don't let that dismay you. In theory, the combination of extremely low latency (under 10 microseconds) with solid state drive speeds (at least 900MB/s in peak sequential reads) should dramatically reduce loading times across the board. Compared to a PC with a conventional spinning hard drive, Intel claims that you should see a 28 percent overall performance boost, with storage up to 14 times faster. Common apps like the Chrome or Outlook should load five to six times faster, Intel says. And not surprisingly, Intel is making a big deal out of gaming performance. The company boasts that games can start up to 67 percent faster, and load levels up to 65 percent fa...

SolarCity’s Gigafactory

A $750 million solar facility in Buffalo will produce a gigawatt of high-efficiency solar panels per year and make the technology far more attractive to homeowners. In an industrial park near the shore of Lake Erie, hard by the Buffalo River, the future of the solar power industry is under construction. SolarCity’s sprawling Buffalo factory, built and paid for by the state of New York, is nearing completion and will soon begin producing some of the most efficient solar panels available commercially. Capable of making 10,000 solar panels a day, or one gigawatt of solar capacity a year, it will be the largest solar manufacturing plant in North America and one of the biggest in the world. When production begins, SolarCity, already the leading installer of residential solar panels in the United States, will become a vertically integrated manufacturer and provider—doing everything from making the solar cells to putting them on rooftops. At a time when conventional silicon-based...
