Why Google Chrome consumes large memory space in your PC?

The latest revelation about Google Chrome has left people wondering about its more compromising properties. A recent report carried out for the analysis of Google Chrome has revealed that the main reason, why your system lags or performs slow processing, is because of the large amount of memory it consumes while running on your PC. When you run the Chrome browser on your system, your memory experiences load and this ultimately causes the processing to slow down and take the necessary amount of time for the execution.

Google Chrome takes a fair share of RAM because this is the kind of web browser that requires huge memory space and even better processors to function properly. It is a common practice among PC users to open one tab after another. Whether you use each tab for a different purpose or not, the other tabs will always be semi-independent on each other. Meaning, each tab uses a completely different processor than its siblings, hence adding to the memory load of the system. In case you leave or forget to close all the tabs in the Chrome browser, you will find a noticeable change in the speed of your system as lack of idle processors will cause your system to die down and respond slowly.

Microsoft expands its OneDrive upload size limit

Microsoft's service OneDrive is used by a large number of users in order to secure their files there. Most of the people used to save up space in their cell phones by uploading files on OneDrive. However, the users were always limited to an upload size of 100 Gigabytes. Though 100 GB is also a pretty large size but the company is being extremely considerate, especially during the pandemic when people are shifted to remote working and virtual studies.

Microsoft announces to expand their upload size limit from 100 GB to 250 GB so that the remote workers and learners get enough space in OneDrive to store their important files and documents. According to the company, having a secure and reliable platform to store your files is very important; hence OneDrive will allow the users to share even the 4K and 8K videos files as well as CAD files, 3D models, or scientific data sets with their colleagues, clients, and peers.

The Energy Storage Technology

Energy is the most important resource today. Everything runs on some form energy now and electricity is the most popular of all. There is so much energy being produced and consumed right at this very moment that it cannot be comprehended. However, where energy is produced, it is also needed to be stored. Batteries are made for that job as they contain the energy and dispose them when needed.

Two years back, Google launched the Google One app that helped the users to give more benefits. Some great storage plans were in the app, which could be shared with your family and friends. Furthermore, the members were also benefitted by Google Store rewards, Google play credits and live support from Google.

A year ago, Google launched a mobile backup feature in the app for all the members using Android devices. Phone backup is the best way to protect and secure your important stuff, including photos, contacts, texts, and applications so that if you even lose your phone, your data is saved in Google One.

However, these features were available for the members who have got paid subscriptions, but the new feature of backup and storage manager will be made free for all the users. This will make it a lot easier for Google users to clean up the junk from Google Photos, Gmail and Google Drive.

Carbon capture: The original cloud storage

It has become quite evident that the temperature of the earth has been rapidly increasing for the past few decades. The main contributor to its yearly augmentation is carbon dioxide. Therefore, the only way to stop the earth from emitting more carbon dioxide is to keep it suppressed. To serve this cause, technologies are being built called Carbon, Capture, and Storage (CCS) and Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS). As their names suggest, these projects have been developed to ensure that most carbon dioxide stays underground so the climate could be affected less. One of the major benefits of using CCS and CCUS is either preserving Carbon Dioxide to fuel other projects or protect the environment from any more damage.

Sources of Carbon Dioxide


There are countless sources of Carbon dioxide all around the world. Many production industries of gases like Hydrogen, Natural Gas, and many industries that convert biomass to fuel or Natural Gas to power emit gases of Carbon dioxide in massive quantities. Oil refineries, Aluminum industries, Cement, and Ethylene production industries have also added to climate change. All of these industries which have been operating all around the world for decades have made the situation too difficult to control. For years this waste of gases has haunted the entire system of the world.

The Evolution Of Cyber Protection And Data Storage
Backup and storage have changed a lot over the last several decades, and with every innovation has come a new wave of threats against it. Businesses rely on the information stored on their storage devices, and early on in the computer storage game hackers realized the value of holding this information hostage or even just destroying it for sport. As computer storage has evolved from punch cards to magnetic drives to the cloud, we are left to wonder whether protecting our data from hackers is ever going to be fully possible.

The first computer virus was developed as a test in 1971, and it spurred the first wave of computer scientists devoted to fighting hackers. The internet posed an even greater threat, as it made it possible to threaten data without even having to be on the premises.
