Both use Arm Cortex-A55 application cores and an Arm Cortex-M33 real-time coprocessor. The RZ/G3L adds a Mali-G31 GPU and H.264 codec for richer HMI applications, while the RZ/G3SE targets IoT devices with basic display needs. Both support low-power standby operation. ### Source excerpt Renesas has expanded its RZ/G Series with the RZ/G3L and RZ/G3SE, two new 64-bit MPUs for HMI and IoT edge systems. Both devices integrate up to four Arm Cortex-A55 application cores clocked at up to 1.2 GHz and a 200 MHz Arm Cortex-M33 real-time coprocessor. The two chips are pin-to-pin compatible but target different applications. The RZ/G3L integrates an Arm Mali-G31 3D GPU and H.264 video codec for HMI applications like retail terminals and medical devices. The RZ/G3SE removes the GPU and video codec and is designed for IoT devices with basic display requirements, including EV chargers and industrial gateway devices. Both can reduce standby power consumption to around 1 mW and resume operation quickly from deep standby, which is useful for devices that need to remain connected while consuming very little power.

The iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro share a 6.3-inch display, the iPhone 17 Pro Max has a 6.9-inch display, and the new iPhone Air has a 6.5-inch display. It also covers display features, resolutions, safe-area insets, materials, and USB-3 transfer support. ### Source excerpt There's less variation this year with the base iPhone 17 and Pro models sharing a display. The Plus model is gone but we get a new iPhone Air. Here's what you need to know about the iPhone 17 models. The New Models in a Nutshell There's no iPhone 17 Plus model this year. Instead the iPhone 17 gets the same 6.3" display as the iPhone 17 Pro. The Pro Max keeps the 6.9" display from last year. Finally, we have the new iPhone Air with a 6.5" display. Apple continues to sell the base iPhone 16, 16 Plus, and the iPhone 16e. That gives this years models three different screen sizes: The 6.3" display in the iPhone 17 and 17 Pro has almost the same specs as the iPhone 16 Pro. That brings features such as ProMotion and the Always-on display to the base iPhone 17. The only difference I can see is an increased peak brightness of 3,000 nits (up from 2,000 nits). The Titanium frame of last years Pro models is replaced with an Aluminium unibody. The base iPhone 17 has an Aluminium frame but the iPhone Air has a Titanium frame. Support for USB-3 (10Gbp/s) transfer speeds is still limited to the Pro models. iPhone 17 The base iPhone 17 display upgrades to a spec comparable to the iPhone 16 Pro 6.3" display with ProMotion and Always-on, along with the A19 chip.

It humorously speculates that the map's border depictions may reflect British Airways' positions on international disputes. ### Source excerpt My spouse and I are on vacation in Japan, spending half our time seeing the sights and the other half working remotely and enjoying the experience of living in a different place for a while. To get here, we flew on British Airways from London to Tokyo, and I entertained myself on the long flight by browsing the interactive flight map on the back of my neighbor's seat and trying to figure out how the poor developer who implemented this map solved the thorny problems that displaying a world map implies. I began my survey by poking through the whole interface of this little in-seat entertainment system1 to see if I can find out anything about who made it or how it works - I was particularly curious to find a screen listing open source licenses that such such devices often disclose. To my dismay I found nothing at all - no information about who made it or what's inside. I imagine that there must be some open source software in that thing, but I didn't find any licenses or copyright statements. When I turned my attention to the map itself, I did find one copyright statement, the only one I could find in the whole UI. If you zoom in enough, it switches from a satellite view to a street view showing the OpenStreetMap copyright line: Note that all of the pictures in this article were taken by pointing my smartphone camera at the screen from an awkward angle and fine-tune your expectations accordingly. I don't have pictures to support every border claim documented in this article, but I did take notes during the flight. Given that British Airways is the proud flag carrier of the United Kingdom I assume that this is indeed the only off-the-shelf copyrighted material included in this display, and everything else was developed in-house without relying on any open source software that might require a disclosure of license and copyright details. For similar reasons I am going to assume that all of the borders shown in this map are reflective of the official opinion of British Air ## STAR WARS™ Makes Its Way to Discord DevFeed: [STAR WARS™ Makes Its Way to Discord]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Author: Shop Team Published: 2025-05-04T00:00:00Z Content type: release Language: en Sources: [Discord Blog]() Topics: [Discord](), [App](), [Mobile]() Tags: [app](), [chat](), [collection](), [creative](), [desktop](), [discord](), [display](), [effect](), [feelings](), [gaming](), [inspiration](), [mobile](), [profile](), [release](), [shop](), [space]() ### AI overview Discord has released a Star Wars-themed collection of Avatar Decorations and Profile Effects created in collaboration with Lucasfilm.
