💍 Ring Mouse: The Future of Clicks and Control Technology keeps getting smaller — and smarter. The latest example? The ring mouse — a tiny wearable that lets you control your computer or phone right from your finger. Instead of moving a traditional mouse or touching a trackpad, the ring mouse uses motion sensors, Bluetooth, and gesture control to track your hand movements. That means you can scroll, click, or navigate just by moving your finger in the air or over a surface. 🧠 How It Works Most ring mice connect wirelessly to your device. Tiny sensors inside the ring detect movement, while touch or gesture commands replace the regular left and right clicks. Some advanced models even turn any flat surface into a touchpad — no mouse pad needed! 🚀 Why It’s Innovative • Portable & Lightweight: Fits on your finger like jewelry. • No Desk Needed: Works in mid-air or on any surface. • Perfect for Presentations: Move slides, control your screen, or scroll through notes from a distance. • Great for AR/VR: Makes sense for a hands-free future. ⚡ Challenges Ahead Battery life, precision, and comfort are still being improved. Because the ring is small, it has limited power and can feel awkward during long use. But new versions, like the AI-powered Padrone Ring and AirPoint Ring, are making big strides in performance and design. 🔮 The Future of Ring Mouse Tech As computing shifts toward wearables and augmented reality, ring mice could become an everyday tool — blending fashion and function. In a few years, you might control your laptop, smart TV, or headset just with a wave of your hand. ⸻ In short: the ring mouse is more than a gadget — it’s a glimpse of how we’ll interact with technology in the near future.

Meta Unveils Next-Gen AI Glasses With Built-In Displays Meta has expanded its smart eyewear lineup, unveiling new Ray-Ban and Oakley glasses that integrate artificial intelligence and augmented reality features, as the company continues its push toward the metaverse. At the annual Meta Connect conference in Menlo Park, CEO Mark Zuckerberg introduced the Ray-Ban Display, billed as the company’s most advanced AI glasses yet. The device features built-in screens that project messages, photos, and apps directly into the wearer’s field of vision. It is paired with “neural bands” — sensor-equipped wristbands that allow users to control the glasses with subtle hand and finger gestures. The glasses will retail at $799. “Our goal is to build great-looking glasses that deliver personal superintelligence and a feeling of presence using realistic holograms,” Zuckerberg said, describing AI glasses as the “next major computing platform” set to replace smartphones. Meta also launched Oakley Meta Vanguard, performance-focused smart glasses designed for sports and fitness. Priced at $499, they include an action-ready camera, fitness app integration, and immersive audio. Meanwhile, updated Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses — starting at $379 — expand on Meta’s partnership with EssilorLuxottica, the parent company of Ray-Ban and Oakley. The glasses, already the world’s best-selling AI eyewear, now feature real-time translation, hands-free cameras, and AI-powered digital assistant functions. Despite these innovations, Meta’s Reality Labs division continues to operate at a loss. It posted a $4.5 billion loss in Q2 2025 on revenues of just $370 million. Analysts say the push into AI eyewear is less about short-term profits and more about positioning Meta to break free from reliance on Apple and Google’s smartphone ecosystems. The global smart glasses market, valued at nearly $2 billion in 2024, is projected to grow more than fourfold by the end of the decade, according to Grand View Research. “AI glasses connect us to real-world superpowers as we move throughout the day, tapping into a wealth of information while staying present in the moment,” Meta said in a statement.

Again, Naira Marley Denies Involvement In Mohbad’s Death, Calls For Fresh Probe Marlian Records boss, Azeez Fashola, popularly known as Naira Marley, has again distanced himself from allegations linking him to the death of Afrobeats star Ilerioluwa Aloba (Mohbad), who died on September 12, 2023. In a one-hour video released Tuesday, Marley said he was in Amsterdam when Mohbad died and only learnt of the tragedy via social media. He noted that his passport proves his absence, insisting police wrongly targeted him and associate Sam Larry instead of those who were with Mohbad in his final hours. Mohbad’s death sparked nationwide protests and vigils, with his family still disputing toxicology results and demanding an independent review. Marley accused blogs of pushing false narratives against him, stressing that he never had time to grieve. He also called for a fresh, impartial investigation, urging police to “arrest everybody again” under credible oversight. On financial disputes, Marley maintained that Mohbad had a 50-50 profit-sharing deal with Marlian Records, dismissing claims of exploitation. He further alleged that the late singer battled drug use, paranoia, and suicidal tendencies, which were often misinterpreted as label oppression. #Mohbad #NairaMarley #JusticeForMohbad #Afrobeats

Russians Welcome Idea Of Putin–Zelensky Meeting Many Russians have welcomed the prospect of direct talks between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, announced by US President Donald Trump after meeting both leaders last week. It would be their first face-to-face meeting in nearly six years, following the collapse of diplomatic ties after Russia’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine. Some citizens expressed hope the talks could end the war, while others remained sceptical, doubting any peace breakthrough. Russia currently occupies about one-fifth of Ukraine, including Crimea and parts of Donetsk, Lugansk, Kherson, and Zaporizhzhia. #Russia #Ukraine #Putin #Zelensky #Trump #PeaceTalks #WarInUkraine

Trump Gives Putin ‘Peace Letter’ From Melania at Alaska Summit US President Donald Trump presented Russian President Vladimir Putin with a letter from First Lady Melania Trump during their Alaska summit. The handwritten note, described as a “peace letter,” urged Putin to pursue peace “in the name of children.” According to Fox News, Putin read the letter immediately as both delegations looked on. Without mentioning Ukraine directly, Melania appealed: “Mr Putin, you can singlehandedly restore their melodic laughter… In protecting the innocence of these children, you will do more than serve Russia alone — you serve humanity itself.” The gesture came after Trump warned of “severe consequences” if Russia refused a ceasefire but later softened his stance, saying the path forward was “a direct peace agreement” rather than a ceasefire. The Alaska summit ended without a breakthrough, though Trump framed the exchange as a symbolic step toward ending the war. #Trump #Putin #MelaniaTrump #PeaceLetter #Russia #UkraineWar #BreakingNews

Trump Deploys Nuclear Submarines Amid Rising Tensions With Russia August 1, 2025 – U.S. President Donald Trump has ordered the deployment of two nuclear submarines amid an intensifying war of words with Russian official Dmitry Medvedev, escalating tensions over the ongoing war in Ukraine. Trump made the announcement via Truth Social, saying the move was a response to Medvedev’s “provocative statements” and stressing that “words are very important and can lead to unintended consequences.” He warned Russia to end the Ukraine war by next week or face fresh, unspecified sanctions. The nuclear posturing comes amid a deadly surge in Russian drone and missile attacks. A recent strike on Kyiv killed 31 civilians, including five children, prompting a day of mourning in the Ukrainian capital. Medvedev, Russia’s deputy security council chairman, had mocked Trump’s sanctions threat and referenced the “Dead Hand” — a Cold War-era Russian nuclear control system. Trump fired back, calling Medvedev a “failed former president” and warned him to “watch his words.” Meanwhile, Russian President Vladimir Putin insists his conditions for ending the war — including Ukraine giving up territory and dropping NATO ambitions — remain unchanged. #TrumpRussiaTensions #UkraineWar #NuclearSubmarines #GlobalSecurity

Donald Trump threatens to bomb Russia if Putin fails to meet demand.

Zelensky-Trump meeting set for Wednesday Ukraine presidency. Volodymyr Zelensky and US President Donald Trump are planning to meet on Wednesday on the sidelines of the NATO summit in The Hague, a senior source in the Ukrainian presidency told AFP The wartime leader has been a central figure at recent summits, but given his fractious relationship with Trump, Zelensky has not been invited to the main working session with NATO members. “The teams are finalising the details” of the meeting, the source told AFP, adding that the talks were scheduled for the “early afternoon” in the Netherlands. The source added that the discussion would focus on Ukraine’s “purchase of a defence package, a large part of which consists of air defence systems”. The leaders would also discuss more “sanctions against Russia, and a price cap on oil”, the source added. Ukraine and its allies have sought to lower an existing oil cap imposed on Russia after it invaded Ukraine more than three years ago, from $60 to $45, to dent the Kremlin’s war chest. Trump so far has frustrated Western allies by refusing to impose new sanctions on Russia despite President Vladimir Putin’s refusal to agree to a Ukraine ceasefire.

Russian President Vladimir Putin told Donald Trump that Moscow is ready for a new round of peace talks with Ukraine after June 22, following prisoner and body exchanges. While Putin and Trump discussed improving ties, Ukraine's President Zelensky criticized the U.S. for taking a soft stance on Russia and warned against a reduction in aid, especially with growing U.S. focus on the Israel-Iran conflict. Ukraine and Russia conducted their fourth prisoner swap this week, returning wounded soldiers and bodies. Despite ongoing exchanges, Russia continues its offensive, especially near Sumy, while demanding Kyiv cede land and end Western military cooperation.

Trump Warns Putin Is ‘Playing With Fire’ Amid Stalled Peace Talks U.S. President Donald Trump has issued a stern warning to Russian President Vladimir Putin, accusing him of “playing with fire” as diplomatic efforts to end the war in Ukraine struggle to gain traction. Trump’s comments came Tuesday via his Truth Social platform, where he expressed frustration over the lack of progress in peace negotiations. The warning follows his earlier remarks describing Putin as “absolutely CRAZY” after a large-scale drone attack in Ukraine left multiple civilians dead. "Putin doesn’t realize that if it weren’t for me, lots of really bad things would’ve already happened to Russia. And I mean REALLY BAD. He’s playing with fire!" Trump posted, without specifying what those consequences might have been. Moscow maintains that its military actions are in response to increasing Ukrainian attacks on Russian civilians and accuses Kyiv of deliberately undermining peace efforts. Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022, and despite a phone conversation eight days ago where Trump claimed Putin agreed to resume talks, no progress has been reported. Diplomatic pressure has grown in recent weeks, with Washington reportedly considering a new wave of sanctions. According to reports from The Wall Street Journal and CNN, Trump is weighing additional economic measures against Russia, which could be announced as early as this week. Speaking on Sunday, Trump confirmed he was “absolutely” considering sanctions. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said all options remain on the table. “President Trump has been clear in his call for a negotiated peace deal and is prepared to act decisively. This war is Joe Biden’s fault,” she told AFP. Trump has so far resisted harsh sanctions on Russian banks, arguing they could have devastating effects. However, his recent comments reflect a shift from his previously cordial tone toward Putin, with whom he often claimed to have a good relationship. Meanwhile, Russia continues its drone campaign. Between May 20 and 27, Russian forces claimed to have intercepted over 2,300 Ukrainian drones. On Tuesday night alone, nearly 150 drones were reportedly downed, including 33 targeting Moscow. The Russian defense ministry accused Ukraine—and its European allies—of attempting to sabotage peace efforts. In contrast, Ukrainian officials say it is Russia that is deliberately targeting civilians. “We need to end this eternal waiting — Russia needs more sanctions,” wrote Andriy Yermak, Chief of Staff to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, on Telegram. Calls for action are also growing in the U.S. Congress. Senator Chuck Grassley urged strong measures, while bipartisan voices, including Senators Lindsey Graham and Richard Blumenthal, pushed for secondary sanctions on countries continuing to do business with Russia. Former Trump national security adviser and Ukraine envoy Keith Kellogg told Fox News that Geneva may serve as the next venue for peace talks after Russia rejected the Vatican as a host. He expressed hope that Trump, Putin, and Zelensky could come together for direct negotiations. The Swiss foreign ministry declined to confirm Geneva as a host but reiterated Switzerland’s readiness to facilitate dialogue. Earlier this month, Russia and Ukraine held their first direct talks in over three years in Istanbul. #TrumpWarning, #PutinUkraineWar, #ECOWAS50Celebration
