The Anti-Corruption court just sent criminal summons to MP Paul Akamba because he skipped his court date. He faces charges with six others for stealing over 3.4 billion Ugandan shillings. Patrick Talisuna, who works as acting assistant registrar, ran the session instead of Judge Jane Okuo Kajuga. The case involves money meant for Buyaka Growers Cooperative Society Limited.
State attorney Raymond Mugisa told everyone the case waits on a Constitutional court decision about Akamba's application. Akamba claims the state tortured him during custody and wants his rights protected. All his co-accused showed up that day, but Akamba stayed away. This caused prosecutors to ask for criminal summons and a later court date. Defense lawyer Mwesigwa...
Curv Racing teamed up with Aston Martin to build the AMR-C01-R racing simulator. This fancy setup improves their earlier 2020 model with better technology and luxury features. You sit in a chair designed like the one found in the Aston Martin Valkyrie car. The entire package costs $75,000 because they only plan to make 50 of these machines.
The company built these simulators using carbon fiber materials for strength and style. Compared to the previous version, they added an extra 6mm of space for your legs. This makes racing more comfortable when you spend hours trying to beat your best lap times. Every detail aims to create the most realistic driving experience possible.
The screen really makes this simulator special. It uses a huge...
A computer fan pushed the AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D chip past its limits by taking off its metal cover. This powerful processor hit stores back in March 2025 with some impressive specs under the hood. It packs 16 cores with 32 threads based on AMD's latest Zen 5 design. The chip normally runs at 4.3GHz but can jump up to 5.7GHz when needed, using about 170 watts of power during heavy tasks.
The person carefully removed the factory metal lid that sits on top of the actual computer chip. They heated the glue with an electric iron until it softened enough to slide a fishing line underneath. After peeling off the cover, they spread a special liquid metal directly onto the processor core. This material moves heat much better than regular thermal...
AMD's Ryzen 7 9800X3D processors keep dying early. Internet forums show more than 100 cases where these chips failed before they should have. A Reddit user named natty_overlord tracked at least 120 broken Ryzen 9000 series CPUs. The 9800X3D model makes up 108 of these failures, making it the clear problem child in the lineup.
Only two Ryzen 9 9950X3D chips broke down, plus another ten regular 9000 series processors. ASRock motherboards connect to about 82% of these dead CPUs. Asus boards account for 13%, MSI takes 4%, and Gigabyte sits at just 1%. These numbers don't necessarily mean ASRock makes worse products - they sell many cheaper boards that attract more buyers. Failed motherboards range from basic B850M-X models all the way up...

Sean Brady crushed Leon Edwards at UFC London with a fourth-round submission. This marks back-to-back defeats for Edwards, who previously enjoyed a ten-fight winning streak. Fans started questioning whether Edwards deserves his reputation after these recent performances. Many suggest his famous head kick victory over Kamaru Usman that won him the welterweight title might have been pure luck.
Critics point out major flaws in Edwards' ground game. He simply cannot wrestle effectively against elite competition. Brady proved this by locking in an arm-triangle choke during the fourth round, completely overwhelming Edwards with superior grappling skills. Social media exploded with praise for Brady's dominant performance. Belal Muhammad, who...
Arthur Peter Mutharika wants Democratic Progressive Party leaders to run honest primary elections. The former Malawi president asked them to make sure everyone plays fair when picking candidates for local government and parliament. Mutharika stepped up as the DPP candidate for the big election coming September 16. He pushed party officials to stay clean and let voting members pick whoever they wanted.
During a visit to Balaka on Monday afternoon, Mutharika spoke to hundreds of people gathered outside the main Mosque. He told everyone to avoid cheating during primaries because that creates problems inside the party. Right after his speech, he and his wife Gertrude handed out food packages to more than 400 Muslim families who came to the...
A judge in Malawi just decided that Collins Magalasi, the former head of the Energy Regulatory Authority, must defend himself against corruption charges. Dorothy Shonga, who runs a business called Vink Enterprise, faces the same fate. Two other people also need to answer these serious accusations. Judge Patrick Chirwa, acting as Chief Resident Magistrate, made this call on Tuesday after looking at all the facts.
The police grabbed these four back in 2020. They claimed Magalasi helped Shonga win a fat contract worth K186 million ($230,000) through dirty tricks. The gang supposedly twisted the arms of the procurement team at MERA to pick Vink Enterprise instead of playing fair. This mess turned into a major scandal across the country...
Malawi has picked brand new directors for ADMARC, the country's Agricultural Development and Marketing Corporation. Peter Simbani, who serves as Comptroller of Statutory Corporations, put his name on the papers, making these changes official starting March 26, 2025. The former board members finished their time in office, creating the need for fresh leadership in the organization.
The government selected Pempho Likongwe to lead the group as Chairperson. Six other people joined the board as regular members: Rev. Dr. Archwells Moffat Katani, Daniel Alfred Chatonya, Constance Tcherani, Olivia Mchaju Liwewe, Inkosi Msakambew, and Sella Msiska.
