US chip maker Qualcomm has reportedly been put on notice by Arm that it’s going to have its license revoked, meaning it wouldn’t be able to make its own chips based on the Arm architecture any more. The reported move follows a raft of speculation that Qualcomm has been looking to buy Intel, which makes CPUs based on the more complex x86 architecture. While Qualcomm’s prime market is smartphones and mobile devices, the CPU manufacturer has been making waves in the gaming laptop business lately, with products such as the Qualcomm Snapdragon X Plus range featuring up to 12 cores and surprisingly capable GPUs. Qualcomm might not make the very best gaming laptop chips right now, but its silicon is being taken seriously by big laptop makers looking to make power-efficient machines.

It's the one thing that the best survival horror games always get right - they force you to listen out for a rustle in the bushes, a twig snapping, an ominous rumbling. Harvest Hunt does all of that and more; the whisper of the corn, the splashing of water, the roar of The Devourer. One of my personal favorite indies of 2024, this under-loved gem just got a brand new update, and it's perfect for spooky season.

Welcome, hunters, to the third locale in the Forbidden Lands; the Oilwell Basin. Meet the people of Azuz, the Everforge, and come face-to-face with three of the area's new monstrous denizens, including the ominous Black Flame.

A new model is on its way, but if you don’t need the smoother performance it promises, you can save a bit on the original today. It’s down to $245.99 ($34 off) at Amazon, which is a new all-time low price. The Palma’s hardware sheet and appearance resemble a smartphone, but it has neither calling capabilities nor a traditional display. It uses a 6.13-inch backlit E Ink Carta 1200 display instead, offering a crisp 300 ppi resolution. There’s a microphone and speaker, a microSD card slot for expanding its 128GB of internal storage, volume buttons that can... Continue reading…
