Twitter Prepares New Feature To Hide Old Tweets

Technology-Portfolio.Net - Twitter is planning to prepare a new feature to give users more privacy options. This option offers to hide old tweets so that they are not visible to other users after a certain amount of time.

Twitter also includes options that allow users to limit who can see the tweets the user likes, remove themselves from conversations, and let users delete followers without blocking them outright.

The new feature is part of a series of social privacy changes that aim to make users more comfortable engaging on Twitter.

Windows 11 Cannot Be Installed on Incompatible PC

Technology-Portfolio.Net - When Microsoft announced Windows 11 many users were confused because their Windows 10 device was not compatible to be upgraded to the latest operating system. Now Microsoft confirms that users will not be able to install Windows 11 on non-standard PCs.

In a question and answer session at the Microsoft community forum, Microsoft Program Manager Aria Carley said the terms and conditions of PC specifications that can run Windows 11 will remain in effect to ensure the security of devices running by users.

"We know it sucks that some devices are not eligible for Windows 11," Carley said as quoted from BGR, Thursday (29/7/2021).

"But the thing to remember is that the reason we're doing it is to keep devices more productive, have better experiences and better security than ever before to keep them protected in this new workforce."

As is known, Windows 10 users complain that their devices are not compatible with Windows 11 because they do not have or have not activated the TPM 2.0 module.

Microsoft also initially wrote that the minimum specifications for PCs that support Windows 11 are those running the eighth generation Intel processors or the second generation AMD Ryzen processors. This provision certainly makes many users of Windows devices with older processors feel left out.

Carley also said that users don't have to bother checking whether their devices are eligible for an upgrade to Windows 11 or not. Later Windows itself will check automatically, and if the device does not meet the requirements then the system will not offer Windows 11 installation.

He stressed that Microsoft will not allow users who insist on installing Windows 11 on incompatible devices by using shortcuts, for example by modifying group policies.

"Group policy will not allow you to circumvent the hardware rules for Windows 11. We will still block you from updating your device to an unsupported state because we want to make sure your device remains supported and secure," explains Carley.

Windows 11 will roll out for free over the holiday season to eligible Windows 10 users. Had caused controversy, Microsoft currently has not provided another update on the device specification requirements that must be met to install Windows 11.

It is also possible that advanced users will find a way to install Windows 11 on incompatible devices. But don't just look for Windows 11 installation files on the internet because there are fake files that contain malware.

Release Soon, Leaked iPhone 13 Specifications

Technology-Portfolio.Net - Many rumors about the iPhone 13 have been circulating, including the launch schedule. Recent reports seem to confirm the timing of Apple's iPhone launch in September 2021.

In previous years, Apple always launched the latest iPhone in September. But the impact of Covid-19 last year made the company delay the release of the iPhone 12 for a month.

Apple plans to produce 90 million units for the iPhone 13. That number is a sharp increase from last year, because the company usually only orders 75 million units at the initial launch of a new iPhone.

Apple's big production goals indicate the launch event will take place in mid-September. If true, it will return Apple's tradition before the iPhone 12 lineup launched last year.

A separate report earlier this year said the iPhone 13 would launch in the third week of September. The possibility is September 14 but it could also be September 24 based on the previous release time.

As is known the world is hit by a shortage of chips at this time, but that does not affect Apple's ability to mass produce new iPhones. As Apple is a major client of TSMC, which manufactures special A and M series chips for iPhone, iPad and Mac, it is likely the company's business will be a priority.

Meanwhile, from the information currently circulating, the iPhone 13 will have four variants. Consisting of a regular version with screens measuring 5.4 inches and 6.1 inches, then there are 6.1-inch and 6.7-inch Pro models.

That one of the iPhone 13 models will use an LTPO screen and support a refresh rate of up to 120 Hz. Apple has previously used the technology on the Apple Watch to enable the always-on feature.

There is also news that the iPhone 13 will have a smaller notch. It is also possible that the notch will shrink even further next year.

Meanwhile, in-display fingerprints will not be found in the iPhone 13. But according to a report, Apple has carried out trials for this feature.

For the camera, it is reported that the iPhone 13 will equip it with advanced video recording features and optimal zoom enhancements. This includes upgrading the successor to the A14 Bionic processor.
