Das Memminger Landgericht will heute das Urteil gegen einen 21-Jährigen wegen eines Mordversuchs während eines Einbruchs verkünden. Zunächst sollen am Vormittag noch die Staatsanwältin und der Verteidiger ihre Plädoyers halten.
Der 21 Jahre alte Angeklagte hatte gestanden, in einer Nacht im Dezember 2015 in Kötz (Landkreis Günzburg) in ein Einfamilienhaus eingestiegen zu sein, in dem fünf Erwachsene und Jugendliche schliefen. Dort hatte der 21-Jährige bei einer Auseinandersetzung mit seinem Dolch einen Bewohner niedergestochen.
Der 58 Jahre alte Familienvater hatte den Einbrecher überrascht und war lebensbedrohlich verletzt worden. Das Opfer ist in dem Prozess Nebenkläger. Der Angeklagte hatte in dem Verfahren beteuert, dass er seinen Kontrahenten bei dem Einbruch nicht habe töten wollen. Zu den Stichen sei es bei einem Gerangel mit dem Mann gekommen.
Da der Angeklagte bei der Tat noch 20 Jahre alt war und somit als Heranwachsender gilt, findet der Prozess vor der Jugendkammer statt. Sie muss entscheiden, ob Jugend- oder Erwachsenenstrafrecht angewendet wird. Der psychiatrische Gutachter und die Vertreterin der Jugendgerichtshilfe hatten dem jungen Mann Reifeverzögerungen bescheinigt und die Anwendung von Jugendrecht empfohlen.

Facebook removes VR demo stations from hundreds of Best Buy stores

0

Some shops may have gone days without giving a single demo of the Oculus Rift headset.
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg dons an Oculus Rift VR headset.
Ask any expert: You’ve gotta try virtual reality before you can understand its true potential.
So it wouldn’t be a particularly good sign if, say, Facebook was having a hard time getting people to try in-store demos of its Oculus Rift VR headset .
Business Insider reported Wednesday that Facebook is closing 200 of its 500 pop-up Oculus Rift demo locations across the United States, due to « seasonal changes.  »
« We’re making some seasonal changes and prioritizing demos at hundreds of Best Buy locations in larger markets, » an Oculus spokeswoman confirmed to CNET.
According to Business Insider’s sources, though, « seasonal changes » may be a euphemism. According to multiple unnamed Best Buy workers who reportedly spoke to the publication, it was common for the Oculus Rift pop-up stations to go days without giving a single demo.
It’s not clear why, though: One source suggested it was a lack of interest from the public, another software bugs, and a third that Best Buy wasn’t pushing people hard enough to try the headset.
(I can personally attest that whenever I walk into my local Best Buy store, the dummy headsets are left unmanned and it’s not clear how to actually try one on. But I understand many people start by signing up at this website before they walk into the store.)
It’s also not yet clear whether other stores beyond Best Buy, and other manufacturers, are experiencing a lack of interest in the headsets. (Microsoft Stores, for instance, also often do demos of the Oculus Rift.) Sony, HTC and Microsoft didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment. Google declined to comment.
Also worth noting: In Best Buy’s third-quarter earnings statement in November, based on data ahead of the busy holiday season, CEO Hubert Joly said Best Buy had already given 300,000 VR demos — though that could include other headsets demoed at Best Buy, like Samsung’s prominently placed Gear VR. Samsung declined to comment.
« We still believe the best way to learn about VR is through a live demo, » said Oculus in an emailed statement, pointing out that hundreds of Best Buy stores in the US and Canada will still offer demos , as will Microsoft Stores and other partners in Canada, the UK, France and Germany. « We’re going to find opportunities to do regular events and pop-ups in retail locations and local communities throughout the year.  »
« Making seasonal changes to where we demo Rift at Best Buy is not an indication of the health of Oculus or VR as an industry, » an Oculus spokeswoman added.
Best Buy also points out that even at stores that are no longer offering Oculus Rift demos, the Oculus Rift headset and Oculus Touch controllers will still be on display and for sale.
« We’re always testing, trying and changing things in our stores to give our customers the best opportunity to experience and shop for technology, » writes the retailer, in an emailed statement.
While excitement was high early on, virtual reality has had a pretty slow start, and publicly, momentum seems to have slowed. You can read more about that from my colleague Ian Sherr.

Windows 10 will let you watch TV as you work

0

Microsoft’s software gets a mini-window for watching video or holding Skype chat. Also new: Windows 10 can lock itself automatically when you walk away.
Windows 10 can show a small video window that stays above other windows.
Multitaskers who need to watch video while crunching numbers in a spreadsheet will be delighted to know Windows 10 soon will be able to accommodate miniature video players better.
A test version of Windows 10 released Wednesday comes with a feature called  » compact overlay window  » that will always float atop your other windows. That could be handy for holding Skype video chats, keeping an eye on political hearings and yes, watching Netflix or the big game when you’re supposed to be at work.
Microsoft is trying to pep up Windows development with gradual, frequent updates that make users happy and encourage developers to build better software. Slumping PC sales, though, are evidence that it’s harder these days to fire up our enthusiasm for the latest laptop features.
Another new Windows 10 feature called dynamic lock is aimed at better security when you step away from your machine. « If your Bluetooth-paired phone is not found near your PC, Windows turns off the screen and locks the PC after 30 seconds, » said Windows programmer Dona Sarkar in a blog post.
The new version, on Windows’ « fast ring » geared for those who want the latest features before they’ve been fully tested, also includes dozens of bug fixes. If you’re interested, check CNET’s guide on how to get updates through Windows fast ring.

The Nintendo Switch won't support your internet browsing at launch

0

It’s possible Nintendo could add it as a later upgrade.
If you were planning to use your Nintendo Switch to surf the web when it comes out March 3, you’re out of luck.
The Switch won’t have an internet browser upon launch, Nintendo’s president, Tatsumi Kimishima, revealed in an interview with Time this week.
« In terms of the internet browser, since all of our efforts have gone toward making Switch an amazing dedicated video game platform, it will not support it, at least at launch, » Kimishima said.
The Nintendo Switch can be played on the go, and docked into a TV (as seen above).
Nintendo’s daring mobile/home console hybrid needs all the help it can get. It’s pricey by most standards — $300, £280 or AU$470 — and will only launch about 10 games (here’s what’s been announced so far at launch and beyond ). So omitting the browser may not endear on-the-fence buyers, especially those who find they do use the internet on their Wii U or 3DS systems.
Even though both those consoles integrate browsers, it isn’t much of a staple for either gaming system. Nintendo has admitted it was challenging to create the Wii U’s browser; the company may have decided that in order to meet its deadline, a browser wouldn’t make the cut.
Still, Nintendo’s Kimishima leaves the possibility open that a browser could come later as some sort of update.
Here’s what else we learned in the Time interview:
The Switch is coming to a store near you next month. Check out CNET’s guide on preordering the Switch here.
Nintendo did not immediately reply to a request for comment.

Trump touts new jobs as Intel resurrects Arizona chip factory

0

Intel’s mothballed Fab 42 is back in business to make next-gen chips, and CEO Krzanich uses it to endorse administration efforts to boost US manufacturing.
Intel CEO Brian Krzanich, left, stands next to President Donald Trump to announce a next-generation chip factory.
Intel chip factories come and go, but a new one planned for Arizona assumed new political importance amid President Donald Trump ‘s attempt to enliven US manufacturing.
Intel Chief Executive Brian Krzanich stood by Trump in the White House on Wednesday to announce a plan to resuscitate an Arizona chip factory called Fab 42, boasting of the company’s manufacturing prowess and criticizing US regulations. His close proximity contrasts with many tech companies’ displeasure with the new administration.
« Intel is proud of the fact that the majority of our manufacturing is here in the US and the majority of our research and development is here in the US while over 80 percent of what we sell is sold outside the US, » Krzanich said. « We’ve been able to do that even while the regulatory and tax policies have disadvantaged us in the past relative to the competition we’ve had across the world.  »
Trump tweeted his pleasure at Intel’s move : « Thank you Brian Krzanich, CEO of @Intel. A great investment ($7 BILLION) in American INNOVATION and JOBS! #AmericaFirst »
Although Intel capitalized on the administration’s priorities, it had nothing to do with the company’s actual decision. « We’re thrilled to have the recognition for the investment and to be able to show people we’re investing in the future of innovation in the US, but it wasn’t tied to any specific policy or anything the administration did, » Intel spokesman William Moss said. « It’s driven because we anticipate demand for the factory along the time frame it’ll take us to complete.  »
Intel no doubt would like more favorable regulations in the US, but tight ties with Trump can come with a cost, too. Uber CEO Travis Kalanick resigned from a Trump economic advisory council after customers uninstalled his company’s ride-hailing app en masse in part to protest Uber’s cooperation. Elon Musk, CEO of electric carmaker Tesla , hasn’t resigned despite some similar pushback, but he’s also offered some resistance to the Trump administration’s fondness for fossil fuels. For example, a tweet Wednesday from Musk pointed toward a The Wall Street Journal op-ed seeking a carbon tax to cut greenhouse gas emissions.
Intel’s investment reawakens an old plant. Intel announced Fab 42 in 2011 as part of a $5 billion investment plan that would mean 1,000 new jobs, but mothballed it in 2014 because of slumping chip demand. Now it’s back on with a $7 billion plan that will mean 3,000 jobs in three or four years, Intel said.
Intel announced Fab 42 in Chandler, Ariz., in 2011, mothballed it in 2014 and is now set to begin manufacturing chips there in 2020 or 2021.
At the White House, Krzanich echoed Trump’s speaking style to boast of the plan. « This factory will produce the most powerful computer chips on the planet, powering the best computers , the best data centers, autonomous cars — the most powerful computing devices on the planet, » he said.
In an email to employees, he also lent his backing to Trump administration policy. « We support the administration’s policies to level the global playing field and make U. S. manufacturing competitive worldwide through new regulatory standards and investment policies, » he said.
But Intel also joined Google, Facebook, Apple , Microsoft and dozens of other tech companies that objected to Trump’s immigration ban .
« When we disagree, we don’t walk away, » Krzanich said in his email. « We believe that we must be part of the conversation to voice our views on key issues such as immigration, H1B visas and other policies that are essential to innovation.  »
Intel CEO Brian Krzanich meets with President Trump at the White House and endorses his administration’s efforts to boost US manufacturing.

Several arrested as deportation fear prompts Phoenix protest ::

Police made several arrests as protesters blocked enforcement vans from leaving a U. S. immigration office in Phoenix, fearing that a mother of two was headed for deportation.
Posted 5:12 a.m. today
By BOB SEAVEY, Associated Press
PHOENIX — Police made several arrests as protesters blocked enforcement vans from leaving a U. S. immigration office in Phoenix, fearing that a mother of two was headed for deportation.
The protest surged late Wednesday at the Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility after Guadalupe Garcia de Rayos was taken into custody during a routine check-in with the agency, according to media reports.
The activists said it was an attempt by President Donald Trump’s administration to deport immigrants living in the country illegally who had previously not been a priority for deportation under the Obama administration.
Fearing the 36-year-old woman’s return to Mexico, dozens of immigration activists blocked the gates surrounding the office near central Phoenix in what the Arizona Republic said was an effort to stop several vans and a bus from leaving.
The protesters said Garcia de Rayos was in one of the vehicles, which were used to transport people in ICE custody to detention centers, or to Arizona’s border with Mexico for deportation. A Republic photo identified a woman looking through one of the vehicle windows covered by security screening as Garcia de Rayos.
Police, meanwhile, took positions around the building and confronted some of the demonstrators, many who chanted « Justice!  »
Police posted on Twitter that they arrested about seven protesters, but added that the demonstration was mainly peaceful.
« Besides the few people engaged in criminal acts, most people out here are peaceful and exercising their rights properly, » police said. « Everyone remains safe so far. Hoping for continued cooperation and no more criminal conduct.  »
By 1 a.m. Thursday, less than two dozen protesters stood in the dark outside the building talking quietly, with just a handful of police looking on.
The protesters said they initially succeeded in stopping the vehicles from leaving, but said they later left the grounds by another exit. They didn’t know if Garcia de Rayos had still been aboard.
Her arrest came just days after the Trump administration broadened regulations under which some people will be deported.
« We’re living in a new era now, an era of war on immigrants, » Rayos’ lawyer, Ray A. Ybarra Maldonado, told the New York Times after leaving the immigration building.
Puente Arizona, an immigrant advocacy group, said García de Rayos came to the U. S. as a 14-year-old and now has two children. She was arrested on Wednesday while reporting to ICE, an annual requirement.
Her status with the agency wasn’t immediately clear late Wednesday. The Republic carried a statement from ICE officials, which said only that she was detained because of her prior conviction.
Phoenix station KTAR reported that she was arrested in 2008 during a workplace raid and was later convicted of identity theft for possessing false papers.
Despite her conviction, she was allowed to live in Arizona and checked in with ICE officials every six months.

Intel’s 10-nm products are likely in production as we speak. Seven nanometers is the next stop on the roadmap, and the company revealed today that it’ll be pouring $7 billion into its Chandler, Arizona facilities to complete an entirely new foundry for production on that node. Intel expects that Fab 42, as it’ll be known, will require three to four years of construction before it’s complete. When Fab 42 comes online, Intel says it’ll be « the most advanced semiconductor factory in the world.  »
Intel’s Chandler facilities
Intel already lays down many of its cutting-edge chips in Chandler, Arizona using its 22-nm and 14-nm tri-gate processes. The company employs more than 11,000 people at those facilities, and it expects to hire 3,000 more as a direct result of Fab 42’s operations. In total, the company expects that Fab 42 will support more than 10,000 jobs in the surrounding area.

Trumps Wunschrichter nennt dessen Juristen-Attacken "entmutigend"

0

Der neue US-Präsident will Neil Gorsuch an den Supreme Court schicken, doch der bezeichnet Trumps Tweets über « sogenannte Richter » als « demoralisierend ». Der Senat bestätigt den Hardliner Jeff Sessions als Justizminister.
Der neue US-Präsident will Neil Gorsuch an den Supreme Court schicken, doch der bezeichnet Trumps Tweets über « sogenannte Richter » als « demoralisierend ». Der Senat bestätigt den Hardliner Jeff Sessions als Justizminister.
US-Präsident Donald Trump kann einen seiner engsten Vertrauten im Kabinett begrüßen: Der US-Senat hat Jeff Sessions, den republikanischen Senator aus Alabama, als neuen Justizminister gebilligt. Für Sessions stimmten 52 der 100 Senatoren, 47 votierten gegen Trumps Kandidaten. Joe Manchin, der 2018 in West Virginia widergewählt werden will, unterstützte als einziger Demokrat Trumps Kandidaten. Sessions hatte als erster Senator Trump öffentlich unterstützt und gilt als Hardliner in Fragen der Einwanderung.
Die Anhörung hatte sich lange hingezogen; unter anderem war die erste Sitzung durch Demonstranten in Ku-Klux-Klan-Kutten gestört worden. In dieser Woche wurde Sessions selbst noch gebraucht: Um die hochumstrittene Bildungsministerin Betsy DeVos durchzubringen, war Sessions’ Stimme unbedingt nötig, damit es überhaupt zu einem 50:50-Patt kommen konnte (dank Vizepräsident Mike Pence ist DeVos nun im Amt).
Sessions war in den Achtziger Jahren vorgeworfen worden, rassistische Bemerkungen gemacht zu haben. Für Aufsehen sorgte am Dienstag eine Aktion der linken Senatorin Elizabeth Warren, die in der Debatte einen Brief der Witwe von Martin Luther King zitierte, um ihre Argumente gegen Sessions zu untermauern. Daraufhin wurde ihr wegen angeblicher Beleidigung das Rederecht entzogen – und die linkspopulistische Warren zu einem Social-Media-Star.
In seiner Anhörung hatte Sessions die « hasserfüllte Ideologie » der Rassistengruppe verurteilt. Der 70-Jährige ist bei Bürgerrechtlern auch wegen seiner Haltung zu Überwachungsprogrammen und zum Drogenrecht umstritten.
Unterdessen hat der von Trump für den vakanten Richterposten am Obersten Gericht nominierte Neil Gorsuch die Aussagen des US-Präsidenten über einen Bundesrichter aus Seattle klar kritisiert. Gorsuch nannte Trumps abfällige Worte in einem Gespräch mit dem demokratischen Senator Richard Blumenthal « demoralisierend » und « entmutigend ». Trump hatte James Robart in einem Tweet als « sogenannten Richter » verspottet, nachdem der von George W. Bush ernannte Robart Trumps umstrittenen Einreisebann gestoppt hatte.
Den Demokraten geht die Distanzierung Gorsuchs von Trump indes nicht weit genug. Als von Trump vorgeschlagener Kandidat habe er eine besondere Verantwortung, den US-Bürgern deutlich zu machen, dass er sein Amt unabhängig und offen ausüben werde, sagte Blumenthal. Er müsse deutlich sagen, dass Trumps Attacken auf die Justiz abscheulich und zerstörerisch seien, forderte der Demokrat aus Connecticut.
Ein Sprecher Gorsuchs, Ron Bonjean, bestätigte die Richtigkeit der Aussagen. Trump hatte am 27. Januar verfügt, dass zum Schutz vor Terrorrisiken die Bürger aus sieben mehrheitlich muslimischen Ländern sowie sämtliche Flüchtlinge vorübergehend nicht in die USA einreisen dürfen. Seither sorgt der Erlass für Chaos bei den Einwanderungsbehörden und an den Flughäfen, wütende Demonstrationen sowie heftigen politischen und juristischen Streit.
Auf die Entscheidung eines US-Bundesrichters einer unteren Instanz, die Einreiseverbote vorläufig landesweit aufzuheben, hatte Trump mit wütenden Attacken bei Twitter reagiert. So nannte er die Entscheidung er « lächerlich » und attackierte Richter James Robart persönlich ( hier ein Porträt ).
Inzwischen wird der Streit um den Einreisebann vor einem Bundesberufungsgericht weiter ausgefochten. Zu erwarten ist jedoch, dass er letztlich vor dem Obersten Gericht in Washington landet.
Trump hatte Gorsuch Ende Januar für die Nachfolge des vor einem Jahr verstorbenen Antonin Scalia nominiert. Bei der Vorstellung beschrieb er den Juristen, der seit mehr als zehn Jahren als Berufungsrichter in Colorado tätig ist, als Kandidaten von « brillantem Geist ». Gorsuch hatte sich seit seiner Nominierung nicht öffentlich geäußert. Seine Ernennung muss noch vom US-Senat genehmigt werden und dürfte mehrere Monate dauern.

連邦判事は「政治的」 トランプ大統領、入国禁止令めぐり司法批判

0

【2月9日 AFP】 ドナルド・ トランプ(Donald Trump)米大統領は8日、 論争の 的となっている入国禁止令の 是非を検討中の 連邦判事らを「非常に政治的」 と批判し、 自身の 法解釈が正しいことは「できの 悪い高校生」 でさえ分かるだろうと主張した。
【2月9日 AFP】ドナルド・トランプ( Donald Trump )米大統領は8日、論争の的となっている入国禁止令の是非を検討中の連邦判事らを「非常に政治的」と批判し、自身の法解釈が正しいことは「できの悪い高校生」でさえ分かるだろうと主張した。
トランプ大統領は全米から集まった保安官の会合で「今日、われわれの安全は危険にさらされていると思う」などと語り、実施から1週間後に連邦地裁によって差し止められた大統領令を弁護した。
この大統領令では、イラン、イラク、リビア、ソマリア、スーダン、シリア、イエメンのイスラム圏7か国の出身者を対象とした90日間の入国停止と、シリア難民の受け入れの無期限停止、その他の難民の受け入れの少なくとも120日間にわたる停止が指示された。
トランプ大統領は「私は裁判所が偏っているとは決して言いたくないので、偏っているとは言わない。それに、まだ決定は下されていない」とした上で、「だが裁判所は非常に政治的であるように思える。裁判所が意見書を読んで正しいことができるなら、わが国の司法制度にとってとても素晴らしいだろう」と語った。
入国禁止令の差し止め解除の是非については、米連邦第9巡回区控訴裁判所が今週中に判断する見通しだ。(c)AFP
