Soon Tesla owners will be able to customize their horn sound, with the possibility of also being able to upload their own audio file and use that for a horn.

Tesla Motors owner, Elon Musk took to Twitter yesterday to announce that "Customized horn & movement sounds" are soon to be "coming to Teslas". One of the sounds that Musk teased was "coconuts being one, of course" which seems to be reference to the Monty Python and Arthur's entrance on his imaginary horse. (video located below).

Musk also said that he "will consider" allowing Tesla owners to upload their own audio files to use as horn sounds. While that sounds like a great idea at first, Tesla could have potential trouble with some countries horn standard laws and how that falls under road-safety guidelines. There is also always the potential of Tesla owners changing their horn sounds to blast vulgar language, and while that would certainly be amusing to hear walking down the street, it wouldn't provide necessary road utility.

California has passed a new law that will see the banning of creating and distributing deepfake pornography videos of persons who have not consented to the video being made.

According to a study, 96% of deepfake videos found online come under the pornographic category and with more and more deepfake pornographic videos being released, California has decided to put in place some new laws to protect people. This new law will see statutory damages ranging between $1,500 and $30,000, and if malice is demonstrated throughout the video creation, damages can rise to $150,000.

With laws now in place, apps such as Fake App which allowed users to create their own deepfake porn video and post it onto Twitter, Facebook and Reddit will be stopped in their tracks. Fake App was so simple to use that fake porn videos of high profile people such as Daisy Ridley, Gal Gadot, Emma Watson, Jessica Alba circled the internet. Back in July, the House of Representatives considered federal measures to ban the distribution of deepfake videos to protect the legitimacy of the upcoming election.

Intel is coming back into the graphics card game in a really, really big way in 2020 and while most people think it's going to be a hit-the-ball-out-of-the-park performance wise... the first-gen product was never, ever going to be that good.

Intel Xe will debut in 2020 in mid-range form for its first iteration, offering esports-level performance with 1080p 60FPS being a great starting point for the company.

The new news is coming from the Intel Developer Conference (IDC) in Tokyo, where benchmarks were released discussing the 10th-gen Intel Ice Lake mobility CPUs with their new Gen 11 'Iris Plus' GPUs compared to the previous-gen UHD 620 graphics.

MSI has just launched the world's first 7nm gaming laptop, something that was achieved when AMD announced their new Radeon RX 5500 series graphics yesterday. Meet the new MSI Alpha 15 gaming laptop.

MSI's new Alpha 15 gaming laptop packs AMD's new Radeon RX 5500M with 4GB of GDDR6, and is teamed with the Ryzen 7 3750H processor -- both of which are made on the 7nm process. MSI provides two options with screens: a 15.6-inch 1080p 144Hz IPS-based panel with FreeSync tech, or a 15.6-inch 120Hz IPS panel with FreeSync.

Inside, the Alpha 15 gaming notebook is cooled by a 7-heat pipe Cooler Boost 5 thermal outfit, compatible with AMD's own SmartShift technology. This technology cools both the CPU and GPU simultaneously, which should see for low temps while under gaming loads.

AMD has released its new Radeon Adrenalin Edition 19.10.1 drivers, and with it comes support for the freshly-announced Radeon RX 5500 series graphics cards.

The new Radeon RX 5500 series of graphics cards includes three different SKUs: Radeon RX 5500 XT, Radeon RX 5500, and Radeon RX 5500M. All of these are supported in the new Radeon 19.10.1 drivers, as well as issues being fixed for Borderlands 3, 75Hz monitor owners with Radeon RX 5700 series graphics, and more.

You can grab the new Radeon 19.10.1 drivers right here.

Can you believe World of Warcraft has been out for 15 years now? I still remember losing friends to the game, as they sunk 16 hours a day into it and wouldn't play Call of Duty and Call of Duty: United Offensive in my pro teams here in Australia.

15 years! Add on top of that the mega successful release of World of Warcraft Classic, and now Blizzard have unveiled a new statue that celebrates the 15-year milestone of the original World of Warcraft. The awesome Ragnaros statue not only looks awesome, but he was one of the best raid bosses in the original WoW.

Blizzard offered up the World of Warcraft 15th Anniversary Collector's Edition on its website, but it quickly sold out (you're not surprised). The kit cost $100 and included a bunch of gear, starting with the 10+ inch Firelord statue, an Onyxia pin, Map of Azeroth mouse pad, fine art prints, 30 days of game time, and two Alabaster mounts.

EA is aware of server issues it was experiencing across its games, with the company tweeting out: "We are aware of connectivity problems with our games. We'll keep you up to date on progress here. Thanks for your reports".

The server issues were affecting some of the largest games in the world including Apex Legends, FIFA 20, and Battlefield V. EA hasn't detailed the server issues, but Apex Legends players were reporting errors with error code 100 or 103, which stopped them from signing into their EA accounts -- which you know, stops them from playing Apex Legends.

I do like some of the reply tweets to EA's original tweet, with "MrFUTAnalyser (Billy)" tweeting "Theres been connectivity problems for a few years" and right under that "Jonas" with something a little more apocalyptic in "Hope the servers blow up so they have to buy new ones". Wow, guys.

CAPCOM is continuing to see mega success in Monster Hunter World, with the company announcing that physical and digital shipments of the game have now passed 14 million units.

Hell, when Monster Hunter World reached 7.5 million sales back in March 2018 it was CAPCOM's best-selling title of all time. In the 18 months after that, Monster Hunter World has doubled its sales through to 14 million units and should only continue to do so.

The new Iceborne expansion launched last month on consoles and has shipped over 2.5 million units so far, and that's without it even hitting the PC. Monster Hunter World's new Iceborne expansion drops on the PC in January 2020, so we should see how sales are a few months after that and compare.

Activision and Infinity Ward have enabled the full hype train for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare as we get into the final weeks before its big launch, with a new launch trailer released. Check it out:

The new trailer is action-packed, with plenty of 'splosions, fights, helicopters crashing and Metallica's "Enter Sandman" playing over top. I definitely feel like this isn't like the last few releases of Call of Duty, and definitely feels like what we loved from years ago. It also looks far better than previous COD titles, something I want to play with RTX enabled.

As for the story of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, this will bring you up to date: "When the world is threatened, you'll have to get your hands dirty so the world stays clean. In a desperate mission, Captain Price and the SAS will partner alongside the CIA and the Urzikstani Liberation Force to retrieve stolen chemical weapons. The heart-racing fight will take you from London to the Middle East and other global locations, as this joint task force battles to stop full-scale global war. Lines will be drawn, your resolve will be tested, and the world will look to you to do what needs to be done".

Oh, you thought you had to do mining in Minecraft in order to beat the game? Yeah, nah -- you don't need to do anything of the sort. Check out this video on how to beat Minecraft, without any actual mining.

YouTuber 'Hedgey' ignored all the cues to actually mine anything in Minecraft to beat the final dragon at the end of the game, all without mining a single piece of wood or rock. Hedgey had to find some supplies without mining, which means there would've been lots of time exploring.

You don't need to mine in Minecraft in order to be well-equipped, something that is on show here as Hedgey using the dead bodies of Creepers to collect and craft TNT. This provided a weapon against enemies, and used to place explosives in the right places -- but it's nowhere near the same as using the crafty pickaxe.
