Ruto Gives Kibera 2 Extra Days to Snag New Home
President William Ruto gave residents two extra days to sign up for new homes. More than 10,000 people have put their names on the list for houses at Soweto B. The registration was supposed to end Saturday, but continues through Monday. People who register receive special Makao Bora cards as proof they signed up.

He plans to push the building company to work faster and finish earlier. The president wants to remove the slum rather than fix it up completely.

NVIDIA created problems with the launch of its new RTX 5060 graphics card.

Trump Tariff Threat Hits Apple iPhone Profit
President Trump demands that Apple move iPhone factories to America or pay a 25 percent tax. The tech company faces tough choices about where to build phones.

The company would need to hire thousands of skilled workers. Apple has already started moving some operations away from China after earlier trade disputes. The firm used creative methods to transport equipment to other countries. Trump believes America can easily handle iPhone manufacturing. Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman disagrees and says production would be much slower. Higher labor costs would force Apple to...

Both memory versions share the same product name, which confuses shoppers. The Steam gaming platform shows that competitive games dominate player activity. Counter-Strike and similar titles use less graphics memory than story-heavy games. The company...
