Yes, absolutely related. This fight started because Qualcomm bought Nuvia and started using their designs (and their ARM license for those designs). This recent escalation is almost certainly because Qualcomm is about to bring Oryon, which was designed by Nuvia, to smartphones.

That's a big part of what's going on. ARM is trying to move into Qualcomm's traditional business while Qualcomm is trying to move in ARM's traditional business.

"Under Chief Executive Officer Rene Haas, Arm has shifted to offering more complete designs — ones that companies can take directly to contract manufacturers. Haas believes that his company, still majority owned by Japan’s SoftBank Group Corp., should be rewarded more for the engineering work it does. That shift encroaches on the business of Arm’s traditional customers, like Qualcomm, who use Arm’s technology in their own final chip designs.

Meanwhile, under CEO Cristiano Amon, Qualcomm is moving away from using Arm designs and is prioritizing its own work, something that potentially makes it a less lucrative customer for Arm. He’s also expanding into new areas, most notably computing, where Arm is making its own push. But the two companies’ technologies remain intertwined, and Qualcomm isn’t yet in a position to make a clean break from Arm."

Youre saying this lottery is fully non partisan and is open to all voters equally?

I'm not the person you were talking too but the answer to your question is no and that's actually a GOOD thing because in order to get the "lottery ticket" you don't have to vote. All you have to do is be a registered voter and sign the petition, that's it and that's all.

Elon himself “You can be from any or no political party and you don’t even have to vote in order to sign the petition.”

The scheme is still scummy and looks bad, I won't argue that.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with doing that and Elon himself said it was fine.

"You can be from any or no political party and you don’t even have to vote in order to sign the petition."

the part where CC results in more CO2 output for all the energy it needs is usually the first thing mentioned.

If you're doing CC from air then yes but if you are using something like Exxon's CFZ technology then maybe not. CFZ is used on the production side to remove the "sour" stuff (like CO2) from natural gas before its burned.

BTW ExxonMobile built that CFZ plant in LaBarge, Wyoming and it's been operating for over a decade and its now being expanded.

I guess this is why Italy keeps getting cozy with China...they need China's internet blocking expertise.

I figured that the Nebraska Supreme Court would rule like this and I'm glad to see that they did. I'm also happy that they extended the registration deadline to 10/25 so that people can still vote.

Good News...it's done. They also extended the registration deadline to October 25th so that people impacted by the decision can still vote.

So some unknown person makes an unsubstantiated claim on Xitter. A recognized and mostly respected fact checker, Snopes, picks it up and contacts Geico where one of their agents denies it.

It's abundantly clear the original claim was a fabrication, likely meant to feed the anti-elon crowd, so why are you assigning the same credibility to both sides? How does some unknown person on Xitter have anywhere close to the same credibility as both Snopes and Geico?

This is precisely what's happening in the Conservative circles. They're being presented with stories that are consistent with their world view so they don't question it but they rarely see the retraction of a story that was dis-proven. If they do see the retraction they ignore or downplay it, often by requiring some higher standard of proof.

So much of the "news", regardless of the topic, is a jenga tower of partial truths, misdirections, and outright lies.

It is a law in my state that all students must stand and all teachers must recite.

That law has been unenforceable since 1943.

They are far from the only one doing so.

It's actually a shit article that doesn't do anything to explain why this is happening, because once you know WHY you realize this is NBD and will be going away when 24H2 is actually released.

This article isn't great but at the bottom it does explain what's going on.
