Brandrus ads are now creeping in on Alexa as well


The entire system of the Internet runs on advertising and we know that nothing is truly free here. This trend is now moving to Amazon's Alexa service as well. If you have an Amazon Alexa device in your home, you will be giving it various voice commands or asking anything and Alexa will be searching for the answer from the internet.

Now Amazon has found a new way to add advertising to it. In this way , the advertisement of different brands on Alexa will not be in the form of explicit ads but in the form of questions and answers. Accordingly, when a user asks Alexa a question related to a particular brand, instead of finding the answer from the internet and giving it from any source, Alexa will answer from the brand's own fixed database. Over time, whether a user asks about a particular brand or not , it may even be answered from a paid data base of a particular brand!

Image
Djibouti, November 19, 2021, Wednesday An elephant-like species of mouse, which became extinct 40 years ago, has been found in the African country of Djibouti. This small creature may look like a mouse in shape but it belongs to a community of giant elephants. According to local records, the creature, known as the Elephant Screw, was last seen in 190 and no trace of it has been found. The rat-like elephant is also known as Sagins.

The winner of the Nobel Prize also believes that the Corona virus has originated in the lab

Image
Paris, France's Nobel Prize-winning scientist Luc Montagner believes that the coronary virus has become human in the lab, and that the Covid-19 pandemic is human-caused. This failure to try to make the AIDS HIV virus vaccine has led to the outbreak of a contagious virus. According to Lou Mategner, co-researcher for HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) in an interview to France's CNews Channel, the genome of the novel Corona virus is suspected to contain HIV, as well as some malaria. According to a report published in the Asia Times, the Chinese city of Wuhan's lab has been involved in corona virus research since 2000. Professor Look was awarded the Nobel Prize for recognizing the AIDS virus in medicine in 2008. It is worth mentioning that the Covid-19 virus originated in Wuhan's lab for many years.

Know, how likely is Vikram Lander and Pragyan Rover to be operational again?

Image
New Delhi, September 26, 2023, Tuesday Last month, ISRO achieved a major achievement by landing the Chandrayaan-3 rover on the surface of the moon. Vikram Lander successfully made history by making a soft landing on the southern part of the moon. The Pragyan rover, which came out of the Vikram lander, conducted research for 14 days with the help of solar and sent data. 14 days on earth equals one day on the moon, that is, if we calculate on the basis of the earth, there are 14 days of light and 14 days of darkness on the moon. In the absence of sunlight, the temperature drops as low as minus 200 to 250 Celsius. The batteries of the lander and the rover are not capable of withstanding the shock of such low temperatures. The rover is currently in hibernation. Although scientists cannot say for sure whether the batteries will work in the presence of sunlight on the lunar surface, they have not given up hope. It has been sending signals continuously since September 22. Batteries can be...
