Qualcomm bought nuvia, which had a broad license to use ARM's IP. They used said IP to make chips.
ARM claims that the change in ownership somehow invalidates the license and they were required to renegotiate new terms.
They couldn't convince a jury because that doesn't make sense without very specific terms explicitly detailing exactly what conditions nullify their license agreement.
I'm saying that if you tax foods high in corn syrup, you're just making it cost what it's supposed to cost. You're literally subsidizing the least healthy food at the moment.
If you cook from ingredients, you'll usually be reasonably healthy. It's not impossible to make healthy prepared foods, but it's (comparatively) expensive enough that that, not awareness, is the main limitation.
But Cal-Maine’s offer came with a catch: The farmers would have to agree not to sue Tyson Foods for any losses because of the plant closure, according to court filings.
RCS doesn't really do a whole lot of anything. It's a step up from SMS/MMS, but not by much.
All the features people think they mean when they're talking about RCS are proprietary Google extensions that only work if you go through Google's servers. They're basically exactly the same as Apple putting iMessage on top; Apple just brags about it while Google tries to trick you into thinking incompatibility is someone else's fault for not giving them control.
Using various AI techniques for things like pacing classes might be useful (though I'm guessing you could do just as well algorithmically). But you can't replace human instruction in the process.
The annoying part is that some time of self paced computerized curriculum is genuinely a good idea that I've been supporting for ages. But the whole premise is that this allows the teacher to spend more time in one on one instruction to get students over the hump when they have questions.
It doesn't work as an excuse to throw out the teacher.
Seriously. I see exactly one use case, and that's for criminals of one sort or another to mask their identity during the commission of a crime. It's not like law abiding citizens are able to use them to protect their privacy in any way.
It's not like digital IDs, where it's one less thing to carry and potentially more secure. Your plate or this plate are fixed to your car the same way, both are (legally) static, and the only thing that changes is the ease of faking your plate.
if you claimed 1% of the total gameplay hours are multiplayer, you'd be lying, because there's no way anyone actually believes that. It's a single player open world with a tiny bit of online flavor. Exactly zero of your three games require a subscription on PlayStation, because the free to play nonsense doesn't either.
The fact that people sell trash that doesn't work isn't evidence that it works.
I'm not exaggerating even a little. I'd rather never play a game again than deal with handheld Windows.
Using Elden Ring as an example of a multiplayer games is a joke, right?
Luigi's Mansion, just like everything else Nintendo makes, made their money from adults. It's not a sign that somehow Sony's bigger, better library can't support a handheld. 5 years from now, a handheld PS4 would still be a better option at launch than the switch was when it did.
They're not. Windows is not functional for a handheld, period, and not paying for a subscription when no games let you use Linux isn't relevant.
Kids are an afterthought at absolute best to the Switch's sales volume. It is a success because of adults, and PS4 would be a success because of adults. It doesn't need to sell to a single kid for it to be completely outside the realm of possibility for it to not be an immediate, runaway success.
I promise you that a handheld PC isn't a consideration at all for the majority of the customer base we're discussing. Steam deck is "not that bad" compared to how awful Windows is, but it's not anywhere in the neighborhood of a console for ease of use. The gap may be shrinking, but it's still massive. You have to choose between Windows, which is complete and utter dogshit for every use case, but awful even compared to anything else for handheld gaming, or Linux, where you don't have to worry about that subscription for online play because every game those people want to play will block you.
The steam deck is not capturing console gamers. It's a niche device for tinkerers. It is not and will not be competition in any meaningful sense. It could be so powerful it plays games the PS7 won't be able to and still have no impact whatsoever on a handheld PS4's sales.
Non-AAA games aren't "kid's games" and joycons are the least durable piece of hardware ever manufactured. Kids aren't why the switch is a success.
The switch was way more dated than a PS4 will be. Jaguars was shit, but not that shit.
Handheld PCs aren't meaningful competition for the majority of console buyers. The console experience isn't "something they put up with". It's a massive value add by removing any need to ever think about configuration, optimization, compatibility, etc.
People are paying $200 just to stream PS5 games. $400 to play PS4 games and still stream PS5 games will sell every unit they can manufacture. Unlike the switch, PS4 is actually viable for most large scale open world games.
That can absolutely be done, and has a huge library, including many current games that don't need the high power of current gen. It can also stream PS5 games. Just use the modern controller setup and you're good to go.
Don't just do it without serious research on the evidence for it and high confidence that your source knows what they're doing. There are many types of mushrooms that are very poisonous, and collecting wild mushrooms isn't something to play games with without appropriate education. And to make it better, there are a real number of AI slop books/resources muddying the water.
