| SoftBank is reportedly preparing to sell ARM to Nvidia for more than $40 billion Posted: 12 Sep 2020 02:32 PM PDT  Photo by Sam Byford / The Verge SoftBank is reportedly is preparing to sell chipmaker ARM to Nvidia as early as next week in a deal worth more than $40 billion, The Wall Street Journal reported. Rumors of the deal began circulating in July, and Nvidia has been reported to be the only suitor in concrete discussions with SoftBank. The deal, if it goes forward, would be one of the largest ever in the chip sector and would likely face intense regulatory scrutiny. According to the WSJ, the companies have been in "exclusive" talks for weeks. SoftBank bought ARM in 2016 for $31 billion. The British company's chips power mobile device processors for companies including Apple, Samsung, and Qualcomm. ARM has likely only increased in value since the SoftBank acquisition, with... |
| Borderlands 3 is getting a free PS5 and Xbox Series X upgrade — and four-player splitscreen Posted: 12 Sep 2020 02:18 PM PDT  Borderlands 3 is the latest game to adopt an encouraging trend — giving gamers a next-gen upgrade without making them pay for it — and in this case, it's one that'll be extremely welcome to console gamers who have 4K TV sets. The image above (and embedded in the tweet below) has all the details, but just in case you can't make out the fine print the primary news is this: on PS5 and Xbox Series X, the game will now run at 4K resolution at 60 frames per second, both higher and smoother than any console can run Borderlands 3 today. Last year, Digital Foundry found that even the PS4 Pro and Xbox One X only managed to run the game your choice of 3200 x 1800 resolution and 30 fps, or 1080p at 60fps, making you sacrifice either resolution or a... |
| Google Groups rolling out redesign that includes improved mobile site Posted: 12 Sep 2020 02:04 PM PDT  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge A Google Groups Material Design revamp that's been in beta for several months will become the default for all users starting next week, the company announced in a blog post. The new interface, which has several "highly requested features," according to Google, includes a new mobile design, updated collaborative inboxes, and replaces tags and categories in groups with labels. The mobile redesign of Groups will do away with the old and surprisingly outdated look and give it an appearance closer to the desktop version. It also will make it easier to browse and search for groups on mobile, manage membership settings and read group conversations. Labels will allow users to filter and search for messages in a group. The update... |

| This Clash of Clans animated short is a first step toward a bigger fantasy universe Posted: 12 Sep 2020 08:00 AM PDT  Supercell's mobile games, Clash of Clans and Clash Royale, are massive: together, the pair has been downloaded more than 3 billion times, according to the developer. Now, the Finnish studio is bringing them together with a new Clash animated short, a 12-minute piece called Lost & Crowned. It's gorgeous and funny but also part of a broader strategy to make the overarching fantasy world something bigger and more enticing. "When it comes to storytelling, we feel it's important to expand beyond what's in the games," says Christina Lee, who oversees story and franchise development at Supercell. This isn't technically the first animated short set in the Clash of Clans universe. That distinction goes to Clash-A-Rama, a YouTube series penned by... |
| Facebook launching poll worker recruitment push this weekend Posted: 12 Sep 2020 07:43 AM PDT  Facebook launching an effort to recruit poll workers | Facebook Facebook is launching a recruitment drive for poll workers this weekend, putting messages into users' News Feeds with links to poll worker registration sites in their state. CEO Mark Zuckerberg said in a post announcing the drive that it was part of the company's larger voting information campaign, which has a goal of helping 4 million people register and vote. "Voting is voice, and in a democracy, it's the ultimate way we hold our leaders accountable and make sure the country is heading in the direction we want," Zuckerberg wrote. The social media giant also will join dozens of other companies offering paid time off to employees in the US who work the polls on Election Day, according to Zuckerberg's post. Voting rights groups have... |
| AstraZeneca resumes coronavirus vaccine clinical trials, but only in the UK Posted: 12 Sep 2020 07:14 AM PDT  AstraZeneca is partnering with the University of Oxford to develop and test a COVID-19 vaccine. | Photo by Paul Ellis / AFP via Getty Images A big vaccine trial halted this week after a participant experienced serious neurological symptoms. It was one of the first known bumps in the road for the highly touted vaccine candidate, which is being developed by AstraZeneca and the University of Oxford. AstraZeneca said Saturday it had resumed phase three trials in the UK only, after receiving confirmation from the UK Medicines Health Regulatory Authority that it was safe to do so. The company said in a blog post it could not reveal any medical information, saying only that the "standard review process triggered a voluntary pause," adding it was working with health authorities in other countries to determine when other clinical trials may resume. Hitting pause on a promising... |
| Sony announces PS5 event for Wednesday September 16th Posted: 12 Sep 2020 06:31 AM PDT  Sony is holding a special PlayStation 5 event next week. The company will broadcast a 40-minute "digital showcase" on Wednesday, September 16th that will include updates from first-party Sony game studios and third-party partners. Sony is pitching the event as "one more look at some of the great games coming to PS5 at launch (and beyond!)" before the console launches. It's also likely we'll get a release date and price for the PlayStation 5. Microsoft was originally planning to announce its Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X launch plans and pricing next week, before the $299 price of the Series S leaked. Sony opened up pre-registration for PS5 preorders last month, but the company still hasn't shared a date for official preorders or... |
| Astra’s first attempt to reach orbit ends early after rocket fails mid-flight Posted: 12 Sep 2020 06:20 AM PDT  Astra's Rocket 3.1 leaves the pad | Astra The first orbital mission for rocket launch startup Astra ended without its Rocket 3.1 reaching orbit. The rocket successfully lifted off from the Pacific Spaceport Complex in Alaska at about 11:19PM ET Friday, but the company said its guidance system "introduced some slight oscillation into the flight," which caused the rocket to drift from its planned trajectory. The flight safety system shut down the engines, and the rocket fell back to the ground. It wasn't carrying any payloads. A spectator caught the launch on video, showing the rocket's ascent. In the footage, the rocket's engine shuts off mid-flight and a few moments later, you can see flames as the rocket hits the ground. — Jennifer Culton... |
