Quick Glance: Netanyahu: Israel and Saudi Arabia Closer to 'Quantum Leap' Normalization Deal
  • Netanyahu says it is 'likely' Israel will reach a normalization agreement with Saudi Arabia, marking a significant foreign policy shift for both countries.

  • Such a deal has the potential to enhance Israel's acceptance in the Muslim world, particularly considering Saudi Arabia's role as the custodian of Islam's holiest sites.

Quick Glance: AMD GPUs in Linux: Cyberpunk Phantom Liberty Runs 31% Faster than Windows 11
  • YouTuber Maximum Fury recently tested Cyberpunk 2077's latest 2.0 update in a modified variant of Fedora Linux called Nobara and found the open-source OS to be 31% faster than Windows 11 with the same system hardware.

  • With the same settings, the system achieved 48.55 FPS in Windows 11, a 24% performance reduction compared to the Linux-based OS.

  • Linux gamers using AMD CPUs and GPUs might see a significant performance advantage over Windows gamers when playing Cyberpunk 2077 update 2.0, at least with mid-range hardware.

  • It remains to be seen whether similar improvements are available with different hardware configurations and whether performance with ray tracing enabled shows any difference.
