As trailers go I thought it was very meh. Just a bunch of random special effects laden scenes. It's 2022, special effects are commonplace, this will succeed on it writing and directing, if those were rushed or mediocre, this whole thing is just going to be like the Hobbit and most Marvel...

ARM, Qualcomm, Samsung, MediaTek, Huawei did big.little core designs for several years before Apple adopted it in their phones, then Apple does it and they own it. It's literally licensed technology from ARM, don't be such an Apple sheep.

Looks surprisingly good, hopefully will wash the stench of the Lynch version out of my brain.

I, my wife and my eldest all seem to between #2 and #3. My wife and I are home from work (which is the first time she's done that ever), kept kids home from school. My wife is a Dr so she's getting her test run by UW (we're Seattle area). It's pretty unusual for my wife to get sick both...

Yuck. I don't mind CGI necessarily but this isn't honoring the style or even the character herself.

Pixel 4 looks interesting but letting Google into my home network via the router is a hard no.

Huawei doesn't manufacture the chips, they are manufactured by TSMC in Taiwan and ARM has massive relationship with them and the US government does with Taiwainese government as well. Huawei could try to go with domestic fabs but they are 2-3 generations behind, their flagships would be crushed...

Depends on the legalities involved, Samsung might cut them off as much as ARM and for the same reasons. MediaTek might be a better bet though their flagship chips aren't as good. It gets really tricky from there though, MediaTek is Taiwanese and has chips but is an ARM licensee as well. I...

Hey Facebook, it sure would have been nice to have some credibility left at this point wouldn't it but the constant non-stop PR lying the last few years means that no one can take this at face value.

Am I the only one who is nervous about Crowley and Aziraphale being so featured in these? Nothing about Adam & his gang which frankly are equally important if this is going to work and nothing about the Witchfinder Army etc. Honestly, I think the Aziraphale and Crowley parts are the easy parts...

In China marketing is very spec # obsessed. From CPU core counts, to cheating on Antutu performance scores, screen resolution etc. Ram is just the latest spec in the marketing wars.

The Rubin stuff is more high profile but the part where Google's chief legal officer took part in an inappropriate relationship where the woman was the only one penalized is equally ugly. Anyone have any faith that a woman in a similar situation to Jennifer Blakely is going to get a fair shake...

If I were in charge of these companies, I would be very, very hesitant about making such quick and almost blanket denials (weasel words in some of the statements and Apple's dropping of Supermicro still make me suspicious that there is some significant level of truth here). The fact of the...

Actually we don't know anything of the kind, Google admitted they only have 2 weeks worth of the API logs but the bug exposed the data for almost 3 years. Data leak is admittedly a bit imprecise, data exposure is perhaps more accurate given the lack of knowledge about whether anyone took it...

I'm 100% aware of the difference technically but Google has been posing as holier than thou about security using Project Zero and other PR means. Yet when push came to shove when Google had a big data leak they knowingly covered it up and that decision went all the way to the top and they still...

So much for all of Google's posing about Project Zero. They had a big vulnerability, they knew about it and swept it under the rug and even now are spinning furiously saying they don't know about any real leaks of the data but minimizing they only keep the API logs for 2 weeks. Now we know why...

Sure but even without that, if there was even a tenous reason to tie those two to the story, it would have been done, tying anything to high profile companies especially Apple has been a clickbait media mainstay for a decade.

Of course those 2 companies were named. If they are remotely connected to the story Bloomberg was going to name them, naming those 2 guaranteed a much, much higher # of clicks. Regardless of anything else, that's just media 101 in 2018.

A lot of initial tech company statements vehemently denied the first round of Prism stories after Snowden but those denials were essentially parsing the difference between direct access to data vs indirect access to data via hacking the network infrastructure and lack of end to end encryption...
