Just for market dominance I assume.
Almost certainly. I'm glad they failed to buy it. It would have been a mess in the long run, but clearly they have plans for ARM.
Yes, but that chip is old. It was already a bit outdated when the switch came out, and that was 2017.
Correct, but they do work with ARM already. I'm guessing they will be making the chip for the Switch 2, which will probably be out of date when it comes out in 2024, but it will be a more modern chip.
I tend to fall on the AMD side of things on PC, but I'm glad to see things getting shook up on the ARM side. I'd love to see AMD and NVIDIA go ham on RISC-V, but that's a much bigger risk right now, and probably needs another 10 years of refinement to hit the efficiency of ARM.
NVIDIA wasn't shy about this. They tried to buy ARM. They design the Tegra chip that is in the Switch.
Just a note, I'd recommend against fast charging unless you need it. It's not great for the battery of the phone. I know my phone automatically slow charges when I plug it up at night because it assumes it will stay plugged up for a few hours.
So I setup every "client" to have the "server" as the introducer and auto-accept shares. Then on the "server", I add the new client, and give it all the shares. The new device auto accepts, and all the other clients automatically include the new client.
I may be misunderstanding what you want, but the introducer feature seems to solve the problem. You setup your "server" as the introducer for all your other devices, then when you add a device, you just setup your new device with the server, and all other devices get the trust of the new device from the server.
Does that matter to the consumer? Shouldn't they know that a Milky Way cost 7 cents more than a Twix when picking their candy?
The register can figure that out, why can't the label maker?
Meh, we computers that can do the math, and the labels are all printed. There is no reason why the labels can't be sales tax included these days. I understand it is harder when running commercials or billboards, but in store there is no excuse.
XP was the last Windows OS that supported 16 bit code if I recall correctly, so there's that. Although most games that needed that are better off with something like DOSbox.
After the phone restarts, you must unlock your phone with your PIN(or swipe pattern) before you can use your finger again. The same is true with the 24 hour timer. Android also has a feature that if you hit the power button a set amount of times, it requires the PIN/Pattern too. So if my phone and my finger print have been separate for more than 24 hours, my fingerprint is useless. If I have any warning at all, my fingerprint is useless. Also, after a set number of failed biometric attempts it requires PIN as well. Which means the law better get the finger print right in only a few tries or they lose their chance.
Yes, it is technically possible that law enforcement may steal my phone, duplicate my finger print(in a way that works on my phone's finger print reader), and use that to unlock my phone while they have a chance, then suck everything out of my phone. But for anything government, that's moving pretty swift for anything they might want to book me for.
I'm guessing you could reduce that to a lower number of hours if you really felt the need.
Boston Dynamics YouTube channel has been filled with silly videos. Often times they are duel function. 1. Build brand awareness through fun videos, and 2. Show the versatility of the onboard systems. In this case they are showing of the ability to navigate a real world human environment and the sensors/cameras that can be fed into other systems for advanced decision making and planning.
