Just befor the TV went out, almost all the televisions ware brodcasting Mbabazi's annoucement to stand for presidency. A friend of mine agues this could also be a political move by the government or pahaps even worse, the president himself could have taken part in this. Hey, this is only a breaking story as well keep you uptodate as we grow it.

what is Digital migration anyway?

this is simply the transition from analogue TV to digital terrestrial TV broadcasting

What is the diffence beteen digita and analog Tv?

In analogue broadcasting, the signal is transmitted as a continuous wave while for digital TV the signal is transmitted as a discrete wave. For digital TV, the signal is encoded and can be compressed to allow for more channels to be broadcast.

You can't Disable Windows Update in windows10

Microsoft said your windows 10 will always be upto date there won't be no way to turn automatic update off 

this maybe because previously windows announced that there won't be no more windows that windows10 will be the last so this means that windows 10 will be updated lot of the time than any other previous version

 

 The company says:

“Windows 10 Home users will have updates from Windows Update automatically available. Windows 10 Pro and Windows 10 Enterprise users will have the ability to defer updates.”


 To ensure the security of users and keep everything updated, Microsoft won’t allow Windows 10 Home users to choose the suitable time. Your Windows 10 PC will automatically download updates and will be installed according to your convenience. The only options you’ll be having: Install “Automatic” – the recommended way and “Notify to schedule restart.”

Announcement: Windows10 Available on July 29.

Windows 10 (codenamed Threshold) is an upcoming computer operating system being developed by Microsoft as part of the Windows NT family of operating systems.

 First presented in April 2014 at the Build Conference, it is scheduled to be released on July 29, 2015.  It is currently in public beta testing through the Windows Insider program. During its first year of availability, upgrades to Windows 10 will be offered at no charge for consumer users of genuine Windows 7 SP1 and Windows 8.1.

The goal of Windows 10 is to unify the Windows PC, Windows Phone, Windows Embedded and Xbox One product families, as well as new product categories such as the Surface Hub and HoloLens, around a common internal core. These products will share a common, "universal" application architecture and Windows Store ecosystem that expands upon the Windows Runtime platform introduced by Windows 8. Windows 10 provides further integration with Microsoft services and platforms, such as the addition of Cortana (an intelligent personal assistant), a notification system that can be synchronized between devices, and new Xbox Live features. A new default web browser, Microsoft Edge, will also make its debut in Windows 10, though Internet Explorer will still be available in a reduced capacity for compatibility reasons.

You can see these features in action in this video.




 Windows 10's user interface is an evolution of Windows 8's, with a focus on transitioning between behaviors suitable for the type of device and the available input methods. To improve the experience for keyboard and mouse users, Windows 10 adds a revision of the desktop start menu and a virtual desktop system, and allows Windows Store apps to run within windows on the desktop as well as in full-screen mode. The operating system will introduce new technologies and system components, including DirectX and new frameworks for biometric authentication. Unlike previous versions of Windows, Microsoft has also planned to treat Windows 10 as a "service" that will receive non-critical updates over its lifespan, in combination with periodic long-term support milestones for enterprise environments.

 Office on Windows: In addition to the Office 2016 full featured desktop suite, Windows 10 users will be able to experience new universal Windows applications for Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, all available separately. These offer a consistent, touch-first experience across a range of devices to increase you productivity. Designed from the ground up to run on Windows 10, you can easily create and edit Word documents, and deliver PowerPoint presentations while annotating on the fly. With new touch-first controls in Excel you can create or update spreadsheets without a keyboard or mouse. You will also be able to enjoy new versions of OneNote and Outlook, which are included with Windows 10 at no additional cost.

 Windows Continuum

enables today’s best laptops and 2-in-1 devices to elegantly transform from one form factor to the other, enabling smooth transitions of your tablet into a PC, and back. And new Windows phones with Continuum can be connected to a monitor, mouse and physical keyboard to make your phone work like a PC.

Windows Hello, greets you by name and with a smile, letting you log in without a password and providing instant, more secure access to your Windows 10 devices. With Windows Hello, biometric authentication is easy with your face, iris, or finger, providing instant recognition.

A New Keyboard that Will make Your typing Speed 100% faster in 20minute

want to type faster then here is your answer 

When Ray McEnaney types, he's confident it's the most efficient way possible. But it's not typing school that's given him this feeling. It's his keyboard. Frustrated with the limitations of the traditional QWERTY layout, McEnaney spent the last decade designing a new one. Considering that the universal key arrangement was designed in the typewriter age — patented in 1878 — an alternative seems due. This one's inspired by a bee.

McEnaney wasn't satisfied with other typing options people turn to — the most prominent being Dvorak, which aims to minimize how far the fingers travel and reduce fatigue. He thought the learning curve was too great: Users need to seriously commit to becoming proficient. That's how we get to the BeeRaider, his oddly shaped keyboard that resembles a bee in flight, with two "wings" of keys arranged on either side of a radial center. It's a buzzy concept: The layout is larger, with the keys you need most at the center (which gives you less fatigue, McEnaney says). Keys that he considers "more useless" — including Q, K and X — are placed farther away.

He promises that anyone can become a capable BeeRaider typist in 20 minutes. The secret? The key position and the related mnemonic learning tools, through which you practice typing phrases like "I hate waste excess" and "Just before dawn starts." It's a little weird to type in such a fashion, but I was surprised at how natural it felt after five minutes, my fingers somehow finding the letters they needed. Having the alpha characters — the keys used most often — grouped together really helped memory retention as well.

But Kristy Snyder, a cognition and cognitive neuroscience researcher at Vanderbilt University isn't sure that keyboard layout can affect typing speeds. She's been experimenting with typists' memories of their keyboard, and she found that most can only identify half the keys they use daily. "We think that it's an implicit knowledge of where the fingers go; the motor system learns where the keys are, and that's how you learn to type," she says. She found that using Dvorak and QWERTY layouts were unconnected to retention, "suggesting that typists know little about key locations on the keyboard, whether they are exposed to the keyboard for two hours or 12 years," she says.

This makes the likelihood of the BeeRaider taking off more plausible; if people have no intrinsic recollection of keys, they should be open to a new way of working. "Using a new system could be better than QWERTY," Snyder says, but having to change key mapping could be difficult.

If you're up for the challenge, the BeeRaider is available for preorders at $112.49, and you can choose between the optimized layout or the radial QWERTY design. Mobile users can try BeeRaider's Android app ($1.92), though it's somewhat tricky to use on small screens. All in the name of being able to tap out "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" at superspeeds.
