I wish that were a thing, I would be 100% on board with that!! Sadly, they will all ride off into the sunset on their golden saddles laughing all the way to the bank after driving a company into the ground.

Intel should spin out the Foundry business at this point, it's clear that it's not a priority for Lip-Bu. Otherwise I just don't see customers having faith that Intel in its current form will be able to compete and without investment it will just die. I think the Foundry would have a better...

The naming does seem very odd. I understand shifting from GA to AD as it likely all comes down to money, but I'm not sure why they wouldn't just name it 4050 a and just reduce the specs a bit. They could even call it a 4030/4040/etc. since there is nothing being produced for those at the...

If it's higher quality and has competitive specs to non-US models, sure. If it's equal to a Chromebook, forget it.

Engineer1: Should we hook AI to our nuclear arsenal? Engineer2: What could go wrong? AI: Oh crap, I just deleted all government battle plans... What to do, what do do, got it, nuke all the humans and they will never know!

They do support VRR. Supposedly these are the same general graphics settings as their PC cousins but the devil is always in the details so we will have to wait and see if that holds true.

I don't think carts can be physically copied to storage (at least one couldn't on the Switch 1) and they don't take up space in that instance. Storage is for games bought via the Online Shop, saves, recordings, screen shots, etc. The internal storage is also extendable with MicroSD Express cards.

My understanding of how this works is each cart has a unique ID that gets paired with a system when inserted along with an online account/location. Once Nintendo sees the same cart ID being used in several different systems and several different locations the ban occurs. Thus for this use case...

Looking at this it seems like the M3 Max is able to meet a 4070 for this game with RT off. That's better than I expected and not bad for an integrated GPU. I'm sure these numbers include a tone of CD Projekt Red optimizations for Apple Silicon GPUs but still, I would have expected worse.

To be fair, Ford's stock has been stuck in a rut since 2002 and that is before Farley took the helm, it has been a buy at $9 sell at $15 stock for two decades now. I do agree he hasn't helped it though.

While seeding technology and manufacturing to a competitor/partner. I'm not a fan of what is going on in general, but something needed to be done about the labor cost imbalance that exists between the two largest trading partners. Hopefully this is a sign that the two partners can come to an...

Entry level jobs are really the most at risk at the moment, I see it already with a lot of companies reducing their entry level hiring because they believe AI is as good as a junior software engineer (right or wrong they believe it). It will eventually work its way down the stack though, I've...

I missed that bit of news. If that is true then 18A might not move forward for internal production after all.

Presumably Intel is still using 18A internally for their own up coming processors. Some of that would not be allowed to be written off. Intel would have to show without a doubt that the machines are being "scrapped" and not used for other purpose. It could save money by not scaling a node to...

Maybe I'm lucky, but I've played all of these games minus Cyberpunk 2077 with zero issues with overheating both docked and undocked. I only play for about an hour a day, so maybe I'm not using it long enough, but thus far I can't say I've experienced the unit getting hot.
