  Masque , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 32min

  Shun Isagawa couldn't hide his amused smile or the fact he was quite impressed.  "Excellent costume, Dr. Hashimoto. I can tell you really put your time into creating this one."  "Don't I for all the masks I make?" Dr. Hashimoto pressed the button on the side of his mask. Instantly, the fibernetics, silicone, and mechanized shell within the artificial skin recoiled, showing his true 55-year-old face once again.  Milliseconds ago, he was John Wayne, and now he was that respectable robotics scientist once again. The electrodes were still attached to his forehead and the sides of his face, graying hair resting along his temples.  "Why, thank you, Shun. I put a lot of thought into that particular disguise." Masque is a cyberpunk science thriller written by Brian Barr and edited by Jeff O'Brien. Masque is also included in Brian Barr's short story collection, Daemensions. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Rick Gregory. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/117680/bk_acx0_117680_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

  Gigabyte RTX 3070 AORUS Master 8GB REV 2.0 - BRAND NEW SEALED 8 GB

  Reach for absolute gaming dominance with the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3070 AORUS MASTER graphics card. This powerful design uses the innovative NVIDIA Ampere architecture, 8GB GDDR6X and many modern technologies to guarantee you a unique graphics experience and extremely smooth gameplay. Experience the new quality of graphics with Ray Tracing technology, and illuminate the interior of your housing with stylish RGB lighting. Performance with NVIDIA Ampere architecture The Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3070 AORUS MASTER graphics card is based on the innovative, technology-rich NVIDIA Ampere architecture. This is the second generation of NVIDIA RTX systems that guarantees enormous increases in computing power. The architecture provides up to twice the throughput with second-generation RT cores and third-generation Tensor cores. MAX-Covered cooling MAX-Covered fans is the latest solution in cooling technology from the AORUS team. By positioning side fans above the center fan, MAX-Covered Fans fans minimize the airflow dead zone found in conventional GPU cooling design and guarantee 100% airflow coverage of the entire heatsink. Peak thermal efficiency for maximum GPU performance.Exclusive static fan blades attached to the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3070 AORUS MASTER graphics card fan module. The blades are designed to direct the airflow to the full width of the heat sink, which greatly improves thermal efficiency.The alternate spinning of the fans is designed to eliminate any turbulence. Due to the fact that the central fan module rotates in a direction other than the extreme fans, air turbulence can be significantly reduced while maintaining air pressure in the cooling area. Ray Tracing and DLSS graphics technologies Developed by NVIDIA, Ray Tracing simulates the physical behavior of light, enabling real-time rendering of cinematic-quality graphics for even the most graphically demanding games.NVIDIA DLSS is a breakthrough AI-based rendering technique. It uses dedicated Tensor cores and the power of the neural network for deep learning to increase the frame rate while maintaining beautiful, sharp images in games.Deep Learning Super Sampling also provides additional performance by allowing you to maximize Ray Tracing settings and increase output resolutions.

  Dark Pools: The Rise of the Machine Traders and the Rigging of the U.S. Stock Market , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 696min

  A news-breaking account of the global stock market's subterranean battles, Dark Pools portrays the rise of the "bots" - artificially intelligent systems that execute trades in milliseconds and use the cover of darkness to out-maneuver the humans who've created them. In the beginning was Josh Levine, an idealistic programming genius who dreamed of wresting control of the market from the big exchanges that, again and again, gave the giant institutions an advantage over the little guy. Levine created a computerized trading hub named Island where small traders swapped stocks, and over time his invention morphed into a global electronic stock market that sent trillions in capital through a vast jungle of fiber-optic cables. By then, the market that Levine had sought to fix had turned upside down, birthing secretive exchanges called dark pools and a new species of trading machines that could think and that seemed, ominously, to be slipping the control of their human masters. Dark Pools is the fascinating story of how global markets have been hijacked by trading robots - many so self-directed that humans can't predict what they'll do next. ungekürzt. Language: English.

  This Is the Water , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 622min

  From Yannick Murphy, award-winning author of The Call, comes a fast-paced story of murder, adultery, parenthood, and romance, involving a girls' swim team, their morally flawed parents, and a killer who swims in their midst. In a quiet New England community, members of swim team and their dedicated parents are preparing for a home meet. The most that Annie, a swim-mom of two girls, has to worry about is whether or not she fed her daughters enough carbs the night before; why her husband, Thomas, hasn't kissed her in ages; and why she can't get over the loss of her brother who shot himself a few years ago. But Annie's world is about to change. From the bleachers, looking down at the swimmers, a dark haired man watches a girl. No one notices him. Annie is busy getting to know Paul, who flirts with Annie despite the fact that he's married to her friend Chris, and despite Annie's greying hair and crow's feet. Chris is busy trying to discover whether or not Paul is really having an affair, and the swimmers are trying to shave milliseconds off their race times by squeezing themselves into skin-tight bathing suits and visualizing themselves winning their races. When a girl on the team is murdered at a nearby highway rest stop - the same rest stop where Paul made a gruesome discovery years ago - the parents suddenly find themselves adrift. Paul turns to Annie for comfort. Annie finds herself falling in love. Chris becomes obsessed with unmasking the killer. With a serial killer now too close for comfort, Annie and her fellow swim-parents must make choices about where their loyalties lie. As a series of startling events unfold, Annie discovers what it means to follow your intuition, even if love, as well as lives, could be lost. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Karen White.

  Sentient

  Sentient assembles a menagerie of zoological creatures - from land, air, sea and all four corners of the globe - to understand what it means to be human. Through their eyes, ears, skins, tongues and noses, the furred, finned and feathered reveal how we sense and make sense of the world, as well as the untold scientific revolution stirring in the field of human perception. The harlequin mantis shrimp can throw a punch that can fracture aquarium walls but, more importantly, it has the ability to see a vast range of colours. The ears of the great grey owl have such unparalleled range and sensitivity that they can hear twenty decibels lower than the human ear. The star-nosed mole barely fills a human hand, seldom ventures above ground and poses little threat unless you are an earthworm, but its miraculous nose allows it to catch those worms at astonishing speed - as little as one hundred and twenty milliseconds. Here, too, we meet the four-eyed spookfish and its dark vision; the vampire bat and its remarkable powers of touch; the bloodhound and its hundreds of millions of scent receptors, as well as the bar-tailed godwit, the common octopus, giant peacocks, cheetahs and golden orb-weaving spiders. Each of these extraordinary creatures illustrates the sensory powers that lie dormant within us. In this captivating book, Jackie Higgins explores this evolutionary heritage and, in doing so, enables us to subconsciously engage with the world in ways we never knew possible.
