Things You Need To Know About Google Pixel Fold

Ever since Samsung debuted the first Galaxy Fold, there have been whispers and conjectures regarding a foldable phone created by Google. How would it appear? What would the price be? Is Google even considering developing a foldable Pixel?

After months of minor leaks and claims, the biggest Google Pixel Fold has finally surfaced. FrontPageTech, a website for the latest news on tech gadgets, revealed a ton of renderings revealing the Pixel Fold’s design on November 14. In conclusion, it seems fairly amazing.

The Exterior

We’ll start with the phone’s exterior. The front of the Pixel Fold features a sizable outer display that is substantially broader than the Galaxy Z Fold 4’s little cover screen. A hole-punch cutout with relatively thin bezels all around houses the 9.5MP front-facing camera of the Pixel Fold in addition to the outer screen.

A triple camera system is located on the rear and has a casing that is identical to the Google Pixel 7 Pro. Although the camera configuration isn’t confirmed, it is likely to be the same as the Pixel 7 Pro, with a 50MP primary camera, a 12MP ultra-wide camera, and a 48MP telephoto camera.

The Selling Point

A large tablet-like display that looks to be in landscape mode greets us when we open the Pixel Fold. The inner screen has very large bezels on the top and bottom, with the top bezel subtly concealing an additional 9.5MP camera for selfies and video chats. A USB-C charging port, speaker grills on the top and bottom frames, and a fingerprint sensor integrated into the power button are further design elements.

The Pixel Fold is shown in two colors: chalk and obsidian, both of which the Pixel Fold is expected to be offered at launch. Speaking of the Pixel Fold’s release, FrontPageTech predicts it will happen in May 2023 (probably during Google I/O the following year).

Is it affordable?

The pricing is another intriguing component of this disclosure. According to FrontPageTech, the Google Pixel Fold will cost $1,799. Although it costs a lot and is substantially more costly than the Pixel 7 or Pixel 7 Pro, it is comparable to other foldable phones. The starting price of Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 4 is the same as that of the predecessor, the Fold 3: $1,799. At that price, Google won’t be innovating much, but it should also keep the Pixel Fold competitive with its main competition.

The take away

What is the main point to take away from all of this? The Pixel Fold looks fantastic, assuming these images are correct. It’s basically a Googleized version of the Oppo Find N, which is really fantastic. We may be in for a real treat if Google can create a foldable phone with top-notch cameras, along with its normal Pixel smarts owing to a Tensor chip, and support the entire thing with big-screen focused software with Android 13

Best Selling Cars Of 2022 In Pakistan

The sales of cars have been adversely impacted by frequent manufacturing halts and rising expenses. Auto sales have somewhat recovered in October, with improvements from Honda, Toyota, and Suzuki compared to last month.

However, Suzuki leads the market this year with sales that set records.

1. Suzuki Alto

The Suzuki Alto is still the most popular automobile in Pakistan, much as we all need oxygen to survive. Despite the manufacturing shortage, PSMC sold a healthy 2,372 units of the Alto in July 2022, making it the best-selling vehicle in Pakistan for the tenth month in a row.

2. Suzuki Swift

Suzuki Swift, which has been on a promising upward trend, outsold numerous reliable sellers to place second in sales last month for the second month in a row.

Swift was the best-selling subcompact family vehicle of October 2022 thanks to PSMC’s sales of 1,350 units despite the recent sales slump and production reductions.

3. Toyota Corolla

Despite its now-hefty price tag, the Toyota Corolla has once again surpassed all other sedans in sales in Pakistan. Given the continued operational recession, Toyota IMC sold about 1,250 Corollas in October 2022, which is a respectable performance for the little vehicle.

4. Suzuki Cultus

Since the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) began crushing the auto sector with import restrictions, Cultus has been out of the game. To sell 1,129 units of Cultus, Pak Suzuki Motor Company (PSMC) has taken advantage of the current uptick in sales. With these sales, Cultus has moved up to the fourth place among the top 5 selling vehicles for the month of October 2022.

5. Honda City

With recent sales, the 6th Generation Honda City’s success is no longer debatable. The Toyota Corolla, one of Pakistan’s most well-known vehicles, as well as other subcompact vehicles like the Suzuki Swift and Toyota Yaris, have previously been vanquished by the subcompact sedan.

Honda Atlas Cars Limited (HACL) sold slightly over 1,060 units of the City last month, placing it in fifth place on the list, according to individuals acquainted with the independent sales numbers.

A major part of the country is situated on fault lines or in the path of melting glaciers, facing risk of torrential rains as experienced in 2022.

‘Although much work on rebuilding has been carried out in post-disaster areas in the past, but several factors were overlooked because of which sustainability of implemented strategies could not be assured. Additionally, high-carbon urbanized models (promotion of concrete block, steel girders, burnt brick) introduced in low-carbon environments using vernacular construction have contributed to environmental degradation in those areas.
It is clear that various models based on handouts do not provide long-lasting results and the dream of sustainability remains elusive. For this reason, Heritage Foundation (HF) has developed an integrated holistic model which is based on community participation, empowerment and self-reliance for displaced households.

The first initiative of BASA (Barefoot Social Architecture) Recovery and Rehabilitation Plan was taken up as soon as waters began to recede in mid-September 2022. The resultant successful rehabilitation in ten weeks of 1,000 households in Mirpur Khas, Sindh has formed the basis for this proposal which provides the guidelines for the rehabilitation of 1 million households at a low cost of Rs. 40,000 per household. This transformation could only be accomplished with full participation of the community.

A holistic model has been applied with the following delivery of rights-based, climate-smart women led initiatives:

‘Rights based’ elements providing basic needs: Safe shelter, toilet, water, lighting, clean food/Pakistan Chulah;
• Affordable, Sustainable, locally sourced construction methodologies.
• Adoption of co-building, co-creation, low impact, low tech techniques
• 4 Zeros: Zero Carbon/Zero Waste/Zero Cost (to donor) = Zero Poverty
• Partnership with local communities – skill training and knowledge sharing
• Community disaster preparedness and environmental improvement
• Training for barefoot enterprises for income generation
• Women led community engagement for speedy action

The alternative model has been developed to demonstrate the capability and strength of community-led initiatives which require one-fifth of the cost of usual high-carbon conventional construction. In the past due to high cost of conventional constriction reports have indicated that 50 per cent of the schools could not be built after the 2005 earthquake.

Similarly, after the 2010 floods, 1 million households in Sindh remained shelter less. By using the combination of baboo and lime strong resilient structures have been built by us which have withstood the onslaught of heavy rains and flooding. These are most appropriate for dealing with the aftermath of the present deluge.

The proposal being presented is to meet a target of 1 million one-room cottages along with other amenities as well as disaster preparedness at a minimal cost of Rs. 40,000 per household. This requires co-building and use of sustainable materials. By creating a structure of hubs consisting of five groups of villages, each of 5,000 households it becomes possible for all those who have any funds at their disposal to take up, partial or full villages, or amenities in each Hub.

In the first year 450,000 units could be built through a combination of funding by NGOs/INGOs, UN Agencies and through subsidized low-interest bank loans.”
Safeeyah Moosa spoke about her NGO in Africa and how it was implanting Yasmeen Lari’s Zero Carbon shelters programme there after which DANI spoke about how the lives of the people in her village – Pono village – had been transformed because of the intervention of Heritage Foundation. Lastly Zafar Masud spoke at length about the CSR initiatives of the Bank of Punjab, and in particular their partnership with Heritage Foundation to make sustainable communities.

A question and answer session moderated by trustee and director of Heritage Foundation, Shanaz Ramzi then followed, after which dinner was served.

Do You Skip Meals? Here’s Why You Should Stop

Do You Skip Meals? Here's Why You Should Stop

In addition to the fact that we are frequently too busy during the holidays to sit down for a meal, some individuals have the misconception that by skipping breakfast and lunch, they will be able to overindulge at holiday feasts without going over their daily calorie allowance. But skipping meals is unhealthy and might result in weight gain.

What results from skipping meals?

According to Piedmont clinical dietician Haley Robinson, the first sign of low blood sugar is a lapse in mental clarity. When there is not enough glucose for the brain to consume, your body cannot function at its full potential. The brain requires glucose to run efficiently. People who have low blood sugar tend to feel agitated, dazed, and worn out. Our bodies start producing more cortisol, which makes us anxious and hungrier. Additionally, skipping meals can slow down your metabolism, which can lead to weight gain or make it more difficult to reduce weight.

Your body shifts into survival mode when you skip a meal or go for an extended period of time without eating, according to Robinson. “This makes your body and cells seek food, which makes you eat a lot,” the author writes. All attempts to eat healthily generally fail since we have a tendency to seek harmful foods. Anything is OK when you are that hungry.

Advice on how to stop missing meals

Image Source: Everyday Health
  • The Christmas season may be busy, let’s face it. If you’re very busy, consider using these strategies:
  • Instead of missing meals, eat smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day
  • Always keep a snack on hand to tide you over until your next meal, such as yoghurt or a granola bar.
  • Consume fiber- and protein-rich snacks. They’ll keep you satiated for longer.
  • Meals should be planned in advance or made the night before.
  • Establish a weekly timetable to prevent overcommitting or falling behind.
  • If you plan on being active all day, set an alarm to sound at noon.
  • Plan a lunch meeting. You cannot forego a meal if you have commitments to friends or family.

If you’re not going to starve to death, you’re going to eat better. You could discover that you start to feel hungry at strange times of the day if you miss meals. This may result in unhealthy eating patterns when you consume a lot of food quickly to satiate your desire. Blood sugar levels may spike as a result, preparing you for another substantial unhealthy meal later on in the day.

Don’t skip meals if you’re worried about eating too much. Include healthful snacks all day long. Smaller, healthier meals will be simpler to consume as a result, which is much better than skipping meals.

10 Reasons You Are Not Getting Your Dream Job

As much as everybody in Pakistan wants to blame the system for everything, when it comes to jobs there are plenty of reasons why you might be facing troubles in landing yourself your dream job.

Fear not, this world is nothing if not a bundle of opportunities, work upon the below-mentioned mistakes that one usually makes while writing a resume and see the tides turn in your favor.

Improper English

english

Yes, resumes and interviews are both considered exceptional if delivered in English, but improper English beats the point. If you are not fluent in English, it is advised that you have your resume checked by someone with trustworthy English skills before you hand it in.

Irrelevant Data

blah blah

If you are applying for an accountant’s position, it makes no sense to emphasize greatly on your past experience as a teacher. You don’t send in a monkey to do a man’s job, having said that, mentioning all experiences is important, but emphasizing greatly on irrelevant experiences is a waste of everyone’s time.

Writing Long Essays

writing

Contrary to what you might believe, even though the company might have a vacancy they certainly don’t have time to read foot long essays on how remarkable you are at things. Keep the data relevant and concise, such that it makes the desired impression.

Achievements Deserve the Spotlight

smart now

Achievements (read as, not school projects) which include successful execution of projects at previous workplaces or extracurricular must be given a front row seat. They exhibit your nonstudious more practical side, a side that any employer wishes to make maximum use of.

Missing Contact Details

contact details

One of the things that employers detest fiercely is inaccessibility of employees, therefore omitting your contact details on a resume means you are definitely off to a bad start.

Improper Space Utilization

cv writing

Some people write too much while others don’t write enough. Your resume must be balanced beautifully. The white spaces should be few and in between, but that does not mean that there should be none to talk of.

Your resume is your first impression, do not let it be something that you will regret for years to come.

Make sure the page is effectively utilized.

Untidy Presentation

hire me

The font size is another important matter to put great focus on. Most documents are preferred if they are written with a 12 point font in either Times New Roman or Calibri. Going for smaller font sizes will only make life difficult for the poor man who will read it.

Along with the font size, headings need to be emphasized upon also. Bold them and make them larger than the normal text, this will help to section content automatically and leave a very neat impression of the overall resume.

Objectifying Your Experience and Interests

resumer

While an objective statement might seem like an excellent way to introduce yourself, it can leave a very negative impression. Don’t restrict yourself to a single corner, let your resume do the talking.

Not Keeping it to One Page

writing cv

 

Long resumes are tedious to go through and extremely short resumes of half page or such are just hilarious to look at, keep your resumes to a single page or else they just might end up in the dustbin.

Use Focused Data

first things first

Very few people understand the importance of this, talent acquisition personnel are trained to look for specific traits in a resume, having unfocused data mentioned on resumes is the root cause for most rejections.

Your resume must clearly outline your capabilities and achievements, things that can help employers judge your worth.

good luck
