• Best PPSh-41 loadout, class build in Black Ops 6
    www.polygon.com
    Veteran Call of Duty players will rejoice about the return of a powerful SMG: The best PPSh-41 loadout in Black Ops 6 will feel right at home, as if youre playing World at War or WWII again. The gun hasnt changed one bit, which means its still an incredibly fast-firing SMG with a lot of recoil that decimates enemies up close.So when using it in Black Ops 6, you want to take advantage of that. Theres no point in trying to kit the PPSh-41 out for long-range engagements when there are other SMGs and assault rifles capable of doing that. Instead, make it so the high recoil doesnt matter because youre going to be in the personal space of our foes, sprinting, sliding, and diving all over the place. Heres the best PPSh-41 loadout in Black Ops 6, along with the best class to use with it and the details of how to unlock it in the first place.How to unlock the PPSh-41 in Black Ops 6To unlock the PPSh41 in Black Ops 6 Season 2, you must complete page six of the battle pass. This means you need to claim 22 rewards to unlock page six, then the seven rewards on this page to finally get your hands on the gun. While this may seem like itll take a while, the silver lining is that much like the Cypher 091 and other guns added to the game, you dont need the paid battle pass to acquire it.Best PPSh-41 loadout in Black Ops 6Heres the best PPSh-41 loadout in Black Ops 6:Barrel: Short BarrelMagazine: Extended Mag IStock: Light StockLaser: Strelok LaserFire Mods: Recoil SpringsAs mentioned above, you want to be absolutely rapid with the PPSh-41, so dont worry too much about any long-distance stats. The Short Barrel is the only mobility-focused barrel attachment as it buffs the jumping aim down sight (ADS) and sprint-to-fire speeds, which is incredibly helpful with a build like this.Meanwhile, the Extended Mag I increases the magazine size from 32 to 45, meaning you dont need to reload quite as much, and the Light Stock is one of the best attachments for mobility buffs in the game. This increases your movement speed considerably, helping you to zoom across the map. There are a few laser attachments that would help here, but the Strelok Laser is the only one that buffs the hipfire to ADS accuracy, which is what youll be doing most of the time with this gun.Finally, you could choose the Rapid Fire mod as your final attachment but, in our experience, it tips the gun over the edge to the point where its too unpredictable and chaotic to control. Since youll be aiming down the sights for kills, even when fighting up close, the Recoil Springs come in handy instead, especially when youre involved in a scrap you cant dictate the range in.Best PPSh-41 class in Black Ops 6Here is the best class to use alongside the PPSh-41 in Black Ops 6:Pistol: GrekhovaMelee: CleaverTactical: Stim ShotLethal: Combat AxeField Upgrade: ScramblerPerk 1: DexterityPerk 2: AssassinPerk 3: Double TimeSpecialty: EnforcerWildcard: Perk GreedPerk 4: GhostSince youll be running around so much and never staying in one place for too long, thats what weve geared this class towards. The Grekhova is the most reliable pistol to switch to, since its fully automatic and can finish enemies off when you run out of bullets in your primary weapon, and the Cleaver is now the best choice melee weapon over the Knife because of its slightly longer range.Equipping the Stim Shot means you can sprint and heal in the middle of intense gunfights, while the Combat Axe is an underrated lethal to ensure you finish enemies off, especially since you can pick it up and resupply. The Scrambler should be your field upgrade of choice, which may seem a little unorthodox, but since youll be running around behind enemy lines so much, it comes in handy to disrupt minimaps and killstreaks.For the perks, you want the red set for the Enforcer specialty, which makes it so killing enemies temporarily buffs your movement speed and health regen rate. (It goes without saying why this is extremely useful with a class such as this.) Dexterity is the best first choice, as it reduces weapon motion while jumping, sliding, and diving, and it means you take less fall damage. Scavenger and Gung-Ho are both useful alternatives though if you dont feel like Dexeterity suits your playstyle the best.Meanwhile, Assassin isnt a great option in the second slot, since it only identifies enemies that are on a kill streak on the map, but its better than Bruiser, since you dont want to spend too much time killing with your melee weapon. Finally, Double Time is a huge help for those times you need to hightail it out of a fight since it increases the duration of Tactical Sprint considerably. You dont need Gunfighter for this class because there arent enough mobility-focused attachments to use with the PPSh-41, so instead go with Perk Greed as the wildcard and Ghost as the fourth perk to ensure you stay invisible to enemy UAVs. However, if you want something different, go for Tactical Expert having a second Stim Shot can be the difference between life and death when youre on a streak.

  • Forza Horizon 5 will be cruising onto the PlayStation 5 this spring
    www.engadget.com
    Forza Horizon 5 and its predecessors have long been exclusive for Xbox and PC. However, the latest installment of the driving game, which takes place in a beautifully rendered depiction of Mexico, will cross over to the PlayStation nation later this year. The exact date has not been announced yet. When it does become available, the PS5 will have cross-play support, which was already offered between Xbox and PC, and players will be able to purchase all the same Car Packs, such as the Hot Wheels and Rally Adventure expansions.Along with PlayStation support, Forza Horizon 5 will also be getting a free content update called Horizon Realms. This will include a selection of the more popular limited-time Evolving World accolades, but developer Playground Games hasn't revealed any additional details yet.Forza Horizon 5 is just the latest once-exclusive Xbox game to bridge the console divide. The game has been out since November 2021, so opening it up to a new audience could help boost sales long after they'd usually be petering out. In a similar vein, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle debuted as an Xbox exclusive in December, but will roll out to PlayStation some time this spring. Other former exclusives that have left the Microsoft silo include Sea of Thieves, Hi-Fi Rush, Pentiment and Grounded.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/gaming/forza-horizon-5-will-be-cruising-onto-the-playstation-5-this-spring-201714287.html?src=rss

  • OpenAI partners with US National Laboratories on research and nuclear weapon safety
    www.engadget.com
    Just days after announcing a version of ChatGPT designed for US government use, OpenAI is further entangling itself with the federal government. The company announced Thursday it would provide approximately 15,000 scientists associated with the US National Laboratories access to its latest frontier AI models. OpenAI will work with Microsoft to deploy its o1 model or another o-series variant on Venado, the Los Alamos National Laboratorys recently unveiled NVIDIA Grace Hopper-powered supercomputer.According to OpenAI, researchers from the Los Alamos, Lawrence Livermore and Sandia National Labs will use the companys technology to assist work theyre doing to protect the national power grid from cyberattacks, identify new ways to treat and prevent diseases and study the fundamental laws of physics, among other initiatives."OpenAIs collaboration with the US National Labs builds on the long-standing tradition of the US government collaborating with private industry to ensure that technological innovation leads to meaningful improvements in healthcare, energy, and other critical fields," the company said.Perhaps controversially, OpenAI says its AI models will also enhance work involving nuclear weapons specifically a program focused on reducing the risk of nuclear war and securing nuclear materials and weapons worldwide. According to the company, this support is critical to its commitment to national security. It adds that OpenAI researchers with security clearance will offer careful and selective review of use cases and consultations on AI safety.Before today, the Los Alamos National Laboratory was already using ChatGPT. For instance, one of the labs divisions is studying how AI models like GPT-4o could be safely used to advance bioscientific research. More broadly, federal, state and local government workers at 3,500 agencies across the country have sent more than 18 million messages to the chatbot since 2024, according to OpenAI.This is the latest move by OpenAI apparently intended to curry favor with the Trump administration.. Last week, OpenAI announced it was partnering with SoftBank to build $500 billion worth of AI infrastructure across the US. Before that, Altman personally contributed $1 million to President Trumps inauguration.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/ai/openai-partners-with-us-national-laboratories-on-research-and-nuclear-weapon-safety-192934593.html?src=rss

  • How Apple Vision Pro is finding a home in healthcare
    www.fastcompany.com
    In early 2024, Ryan Broderick, a surgeon at UC San Diego Health, was commiserating with some colleagues about the profusion of screens in todays operating rooms. Though the displays provided essential guidance for minimally invasive operations in progress, they also added complexity.We were looking around the operating room, he remembers. We have a lot of monitors, a lot of clutter. We were like, Theres got to be a better way to do this.It wasnt just about tidiness. For [a] monitor to be in the ideal position for surgery, it really should just be directly in front of your head without having to turn your neck or adjust your body, explains Dr. Broderick. But often in laparoscopy, you have to adjust your body, turn your neck, and be in uncomfortable positions. And with repeated use like that, it can lead to tight muscles, neck injury, back injury.The doctors frustration with this situation happened to come to a boil at an opportune time. On February 2, Apple released the Apple Vision Pro, its first headset. A major element of the devices spatial computing experience was the ability to float multiple virtual screens of any size in real-world surroundings, unconstructed by the bulky inconvenience of physical displays. Dr. Brodericks team got its hands on a loaner Vision Pro and worked with UCSD Health chief clinical and innovation officer Christopher Broadhurst to assemble a system capable of streaming video feeds and overlaying them on the live view of a surgery in progress, greatly reducing the need to crane necks.In short order, the idea became a trial that involved real patients and is currently undergoing peer review. Weve done over 50 cases and have had great success thus far, says Dr. Broderick.[Photo: Apple]Almost a year after reaching the market, the Vision Pro has a relatively low profile for an Apple product. Much of the discussion around the headset relates to the possibility of the company releasing a version for less than the current models imposing $3,499 price tag, a necessity for anything resembling widespread adoption. Right now, its an early-adopter product, CEO Tim Cook told the Wall Street Journals Ben Cohen last October. People who want to have tomorrows technology todaythats who its for.But UCSD Health isnt the only medical institution that saw potential for the Vision Pro to be useful right away. Its launch prompted Sharp HealthCare, a major San Diego-based healthcare provider, to buy 30 Vision Pros and start a Spatial Computing Center of Excellence. Today, Sharp is hosting a summit on the Vision Pros applications in surgery, doctors offices, medical education, and beyond. There are 300 people comingfrom 10 countrieswho are beyond excited, says Tommy Korn, an ophthalmologist with Sharp.For Apple, the summit validates the Vision Pros power as a platform for new experiences, whose positive impact could be enormous.Its a really exciting and timely moment to bring key industry leaders in healthcare together to not just sit there and listen to a bunch of keynotes, but to connect and talk and share how theyve used Vision Pro to take best practices and inspiration from peers, says Susan Prescott, the companys VP of worldwide developer relations and enterprise and education markets, and a 22-year veteran of encouraging the use of Apple products in business contexts.This one is even surprising usThe healthcare industry doesnt exactly have a reputation for being at the forefront of technological change. But when Apple unveiled its headset, Many key leaders became very excited, and have not just been excited, but have put their money where their mouth is, says Prescott. Sometimes enterprises take a little time to adopt technology. This one is even surprising us in the alacrity with which the product is being used and the apps are being built.A few things did work in the Vision Pros favor. For example, from day one, it was designed for general-purpose computing. Thats a striking departure from the iPhonewhich famously didnt permit third-party apps until its second yearand even the iPad, which started out emphasizing lean-back content consumption over all else. Even the term spatial computing made the Vision Pro sound more like the Mac of the future than a mere VR gaming console you could strap to your face.Unlike some other products in the Vision Pros conceptual zip code that have also courted healthcare userssuch as Magic Leapit also benefited from being part of the greater Apple ecosystem spanning the Mac, iPhone, and iPad. That lowered the bar of entry for developers who already had experience writing apps for Apple devices. It also piqued the interest of medical professionals who were comfortable with Apple products: Dr. Korn says that 90% of Sharp HealthCare doctors use iPhones and more than half use a Mac at home.Then theres the Vision Pros pricea lot of money for a consumer gadget but downright affordable by the standards of medical equipment. (Thats a $20,000 monitor, thats a $20,000 monitor, Dr. Korn told me during our video call as he pointed at displays in a Sharp operating room used for testing purposes.) The fact that Apple didnt skimp on the headsets technology to hit a low price helped make it more suitable for healthcare: We have the R1 chip thats taking the feedback from the sensors and processing eight times faster than the human eye can blink, says Prescott. Thats great for anti-nausea, to help make sure people dont feel unwell. But its also great as feeds are coming in with live, literally lifesaving, information.Thats not to say that the Vision Pro might not find even wider acceptance in healthcare if it were cheaper. Obviously, its a V1 product, and the price, for now, is what the price is, acknowledges Prescott. But along with letting doctors replace technology thats more expensive and cumbersome, she adds, Vision Pro sometimes lets doctors do something that wasnt possible before that just improves patient outcomes, which at the end of the day is an important part of the success of a healthcare organization.Sharp partnered with Zeissthe optical giant whose products include the prescription inserts available for the Vision Proto help develop an app that let ophthalmologists view cataract surgery videos using the headset. They created the concept and brought it to us to test it and see how it worked in real life, says Dr. Korn. Stryker, a maker of robotics for hip and knee surgery, released an app for reviewing surgical plans in 3D; medical publisher Elsevier published one with detailed models of the human heart and cardiovascular system.In the months following the Vision Pros release, Apple nudged enterprise adoption along with VisionOS updates that buttressed the devices use in professional-grade environments. For example, it brought over the iPhones Mobile Device Management features for configuring, securing, and otherwise wrangling the devices en massecapabilities widely regarded as absolute necessities for enterprise use. It also added support for wide and ultrawide virtual Mac screens, improving the headsets ability to squeeze down a whole lot of display real estate into a form that requires no desk space.Ophthalmologist Tommy Korn demos the Apple Vision Pro. [Photo: courtesy of Sharp HealthCare]Despite the Vision Pros recognizably Apple-esque qualities, donning a headset remains a new kind of experience even if youre just watching a movie or making a Zoom call, let alone performing surgery. However, UCSD Healths Dr. Broderick says its not uncomfortable or distracting in the moment: Its pretty much not noticeable when youre in the middle of the operationthe learning curve is near zero. Operations typically last 45 to 90 minutes, time spans the Vision Pro can handle on one battery charge.Dr. Broderick emphasizes that he believes spatial computing will be an entire field over timerather than the Vjsion Pro remaining a category-of-one productand that hes already thinking about whats next. Say I have a resident whos trying to do a case and theyre in the wrong spot, he says. Rather than taking over from them, if I could draw on their video feed in space where they should go, that might be helpful. And telementoring can be helpful for advancing training as well as providing care for patients who might be in a rural community. I think its going to be a pretty big deal when you can have imaging overlaid on your target anatomy.Sharp HealthCares Dr. Korn is thinking even more broadly. We know [the Vision Pro] is probably going to be great for surgery, precision, and analysis, he says. But gosh, Ive already seen people using this for mental illness and meditation. People using the Kung Fu Panda app to help do Tai Chi. But also, doctors think, hey, maybe we could use that for anesthesia, for patients, for children before they go into surgery. Youre seeing all these verticals coming in.For all the healthcare apps that emerged during the Vision Pros first year, the what-ifs aboundand the summit at Sharps spatial computing center is about turning them into progress.

  • What to know about the American Airlines jet and Army helicopter that collided over D.C.
    www.fastcompany.com
    The Army helicopter and regional American Airlines jet that collided over Washington are both workhorse aircraft that operate around the world on a daily basis.There were 60 passengers and four crew members on the jet, a Bombardier CRJ700, officials said. Three service members were on a training flight on the UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter. None are believed to have survived the Wednesday night collision, which caused both aircraft to plunge into the frigid Potomac River.What to know about the aircraft:Sikorsky UH-60 Black HawkThere are about 5,000 Black Hawks in use around the world, according to the aviation site FlightGlobal.com. The twin-engine, four-blade helicopter is manufactured by Sikorsky, a subsidiary of defense contractor Lockheed Martin.The aircraft involved in Wednesdays collision was an Army version. There are other variants made for the Navy, Air Force and Coast Guard, and for specialized duty such as intelligence gathering.The Black Hawk made its debut in 1979. The helicopters have been involved in numerous U.S. military operations, including the raid that killed al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden in May 2011, the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and the invasions of Panama and Grenada.It is perhaps best known as the namesake aircraft in the 2001 war film Black Hawk Down, about a U.S. helicopter shot down in Mogadishu, Somalia, during the civil war there. Others have crashed over the years on training missions.Bombardier CRJ700The passenger jet was manufactured by Quebec, Canada-based conglomerate Bombardier Inc. The CRJ program was sold in June 2020 to the Japanese company Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, which no longer makes them but continues to produce parts.The twin-engine aircraft comes in several versions capable of seating between 68 and 78 passengers. It is a commonly used regional aircraft used for medium and shorter flights, with more than 900 produced since it was introduced in May 1999.Bombardier said in 2015 that the CRJ700 series accounted for 20% of all departure flights in North America, with about 200,000 flights per month.The plane in Wednesdays crash was registered as N530EA and manufactured in 2010, according to the Federal Aviation Administration. The jet was operated by an American Airlines subsidiary, PSA Airlines.Curt Anderson, Associated Press
