Zimbabwe's football leaders want to bring video replay technology to their Premier Soccer League games. The Zimbabwe Football Association talks with FIFA about adding Video Assistant Referee systems to help referees make better choices during matches. Kennedy Ndebele and Yvonne Manwa lead these discussions as they work to solve problems with bad referee calls that have hurt local football. The technology would help officials review goals, penalties, red cards and offside plays. Many controversial games have happened because referees made wrong decisions.
FIFA experts will meet with Zimbabwe officials to study what the country needs for video replay systems. The technology costs lots of money and requires special equipment that Zimbabwe...
Zimbabwe opens new homes for police officers after finishing four apartment buildings in Harare on Friday. The buildings hold 96 housing units that give officers places to live near their work stations. President Emmerson Mnangagwa started the program to help security workers find better places to stay.
Sergeant Caroline Vuma said the new home makes her job easier because she no longer travels far distances every day. Superintendent Molin Rumbwere agrees that having nearby housing reduces stress and makes police work better. Both officers thank the president for caring about where they live.
Minister Kazembe Kazembe says the government plans to build similar housing projects across Zimbabwe. He mentions that construction already...
Galax sells RTX 5080 and RTX 5070 Ti Hall of Fame graphics cards on their website. These cards show users if power cables connect right through LED lights. Yellow lights warn when the 16-pin power plug sits loose. Red lights flash when power problems happen even with good connections. The lights stay off or show pretty colors when everything works fine.
Both cards use GB203 chips and have three cooling fans each. Two big 102mm fans sit on the ends and one smaller 92mm fan stays between them. Buyers can pick black or white versions that both have LED lights. The cooling system helps cards run fast without getting hot during games or when people push them harder.
The RTX 5080 HOF runs at 2760 MHz normally and speeds up to 2775 MHz when...
Wallace Kou runs Silicon Motion and thinks PCIe 6.0 won't reach home computers before 2030. AMD, Intel and PC makers stick with PCIe 5.0 because it works well for most people. The newer PCIe 6.0 costs much more and creates problems that regular users don't need. Silicon Motion leads the PCIe 5.0 SSD controller business with 4-lane and 8-lane products. Kou says PCIe 5.0 gives enough speed for gaming and daily computer tasks.
Making PCIe 6.0 controllers costs between 30 and 40 million dollars using 4nm technology. PCIe 5.0 controllers cost 16 to 20 million dollars with 6nm technology. These high prices keep many companies away from PCIe 6.0 development. Silicon Motion benefits from this situation because of their experience and size. The...

Zimbabwe saw digital payment values fall during early 2025 as people spent less money through electronic systems. The Reserve Bank reported transaction values decreased from ZIG583.14 billion to ZIG532.61 billion between quarters. Payment volumes also declined from previous levels during the same three-month period. Economic pressures and reduced consumer spending power contributed to these lower numbers. Business owners became more careful about making purchases through digital channels.
Festive season spending helped boost fourth quarter results before normal patterns returned. Holiday bonuses and gift purchases increased electronic transactions during December celebrations. Regular economic activity resumed after the holidays ended...
