Greece may be a top vacation destination, but for the British, Americans and Italians dreaming of getting away, the country will be off limits for some time. The government in Athens has left them off a list of 29 countries from which Greece will start accepting visitors, as it scrambles to mitigate the damage that the COVID-19 pandemic has spelled for its biggest money-making industry: tourism.  The tourist flows of Italians to Greece exceed 1.5 million of tourists per year.

Google Introduces Google Assistant Voice Match for Some Purchases

Image
Google has been rolling out a new Voice Match setting for voice-enabled purchases of some digital goods. It is available today on Android and even shows up in the Google Assistant app for iOS. Voice Match will enable you to complete purchases using Google Assistant by simply speaking. Android Police confirmed with Google that Voice Match for purchases is a new feature in pilot mode and in limited availability today: After you enable the setting, you probably won’t notice anything has changed, even if you try to make a purchase via the Assistant. We’re told that this early pilot is limited to in-app digital purchases through Google Play and restaurant orders for the time being. It doesn’t appear to work in our own tests for things like Google Shopping…Purchases made in this manner are also subject to limits, including a maximum (but undefined and presumably price-based) limit per transaction, and a similarly nebulous number of transactions per day. Let's hope Voice Match is smart en

Fifteen-year-old in India cycles 745 miles home with disabled father on bike

Fifteen-year-old in India cycles 745 miles home with disabled father on bike Jyoti Kumari said she opted for desperate ride from New Delhi to Bihar after rickshaw work ended amid Covid-19 crisis. Rendered jobless and penniless because of the extended COVID-19 lockdown, the 15-year-old was forced to ferry her father who was unable to walk properly after surgery to his left knee following an accident. “I had no other option” she said. “We wouldn’t have survived if I hadn’t cycled to my village.” So she decided to buy a bicycle and, as thousands of other Indian migrant workers have done since March, make her way home. Kumari pedalled for 10 days, her father riding on the back of the bike. Did she receive the 500 Euro ecobonus for the purchase of the bicycle? Or this is only for e-bike and push-scooters? newsaccuse newsaccuse.blogspot.com

Hong Kong police fire tear gas at rally against proposed security law

China and the United States are fighting for the hegemony and the new battlefield is the ex-colony of the British empire. Hong Kong retains sufficient autonomy to enjoy favorable US trading terms that have helped the city to maintain its position as a major financial hub. Hong Kong protesters gathered in opposition to a controversial security law proposed by China last week. As usual, protesters will be the ones to pay for it Where is Europe in all this? Europe (that is not there) is shameful struggling with four stones: Austria's Chancellor - Sebastian Kurz Sweden's Prime Minister - Stefan Lofven Netherlands' Prime Minister - Mark Rutte Denmark's Prime Minister - Mette Frederiksen newsaccuse newsaccuse.blogspot.com
