With CES 2019 underway, IBM has unveiled the world’s first commercial quantum computing system Q System One. Visually, it’s nothing less than a piece of art. Q System One lays the foundation of IBM’s plans to make quantum computing systems a commercial reality.
Last year IBM showcased a 50-qubit quantum computer at CES, but it was just a beautifully designed exoskeleton that lacked major internal components including cooling and power management parts as it was too large to fit in a room. This year, they have brought to reality a quantum computer that is compact, has a modular design, and looks aesthetically pleasing.
All the parts of Q System One have been compactly fitted inside a 9-foot cube made with half-inch-thick borosilicate glass. The glass structure is essential to keeping the temperature of chips at around 10 milliKelvins.
The cube has ‘doors’ that can be opened to access the Quantum computer in front and the control module and other cooling components at the rear. The structural integrity of the entire cube is ensured by using multiple frames made from steel and aluminum.

The structure with its wires, tubes, and dominating golden hue resembles an exquisite chandelier. Map Project Office, an industrial firm, is behind the awe-inspiring design of the quantum computer.
The computer is not fully functional yet. IBM, however, to some extent, has succeeded in overcoming the major challenge faced by quantum computers — the mammoth size.

HOW TO EASILY BLOCK ADS IN ANDROID APPS AND BROWSERS [ROOT & NON ROOT]

If you’re sick of giant ads taking up space on your tiny phone’s screen, you’re not alone. I’ve figured out quite a number of ways to banish them from your phone. Ads  can make browsing annoying on some sites, especially on a such a little screen (and they can make some apps very difficult to use). The method you will be able to use depends largely on whether your android device is rooted or not, so I've rounded up the two best methods for blocking ads on your phone.  1. Adaway app [rooted phones]       By far the best ad blocking solution is AdAway, which will block ads from most known sources, both in your browser of choice and in the apps you use. Just download it, start it up, and hit the “Download files and apply ad blocking” button. It’ll download a few host files and merge them into your phone’s, blocking those apps from ever reaching your device. You may need to reboot after you do this. You can also disable ad blocking at any time, but again...

Fortnite ,  the popular Battle Royale Game developed by Epic Games, is suffering from a serious issue of stolen accounts. The ‘ Fortnite Cracking ‘ problem is growing by the day with many users reporting that they are not able to login into their Fortnite account with the credentials. Teenage hackers are behind the stolen accounts and are making thousands of pounds by selling them. In an  interview  with the BBC, a Slovenian teenager said that he had made  £16,000  which translates to around $20,000 by  selling the stolen Fortnite accounts  in the last seven months. These hackers use a technique dubbed ‘ Credential Stuffing ‘ that involves searching the lists of exposed username/emails and passwords from other already hacked servers. The information about hacked online services is easily available online. Next, they use a  hit and trial method  where they use the obtained credentials to log in to Fortnite’s website. If the hacker is ...

S amsung is all geared up to unveil its new flagship — the Galaxy S10 for which the rumors are brimming. Fueling further anticipation, it is now rumored that Samsung’s own   low-light photography camera feature   could debut in the upcoming flagship.

The rumored Bright Night feature would click multiple images in low-light which are rather dark and assemble them to form  one single bright and detailed image . It is similar to the technology adopted by other OEMs to click bright photographs even in low light conditions. To recall, Google is not the only company providing Night Sight feature to its Pixel smartphones; OnePlus also has a similar feature called the Nightscape feature, along with Xiaomi’s  ...
