@lathiat @QuinnyPig @TheRegister And thanks all round. Appreciated :)

@lathiat @QuinnyPig @TheRegister FWIW we're regularly balancing our headings and writing so that we present stuff in a way that's fun and informative, and in a way others don't, can't or won't - but without (as I said on HN) we're alienating future audiences It's a balancing act

Whomstever at @TheRegister did this masterwork of a headline: your money is no good if ever we’re drinking at the same place. It’s my second favorite you’ve ever done. DMs always open. theregister.com/2023/10/17/ban…

@rik_ferguson If this is Bluesky, I'd like to give it a try, please

@lproven Oh shoot, wishing you all the best in your healing and recovery

Fell off my bicycle. Smashed right arm up very badly. Open compound fracture ulna & radius. Again. I'm in ward 11 of Noble's Hospital and may need to be medevaced to Liverpool. It's 1986 all over again. 😢

@sadams_s @brokenbottleboy @iainthomson Well, I hope you can give us another shot in future. We're a rather different team these days And funny you should say that about old stories, an important task this year is reviewing the archives. How we handle previous coverage that doesn't sit well in 2023, specifically

@diodesign @brokenbottleboy @iainthomson Of course. However: The disinformation articles remain posted, without correction or acknowledgement they published in error. The offending columnist was left in post for several years, no editorial control. Just sayin. Tarnished brand for me (I used to read it every day).

Could it be, perhaps, that increasingly being denied the fruits of their productivity makes workers less keen to break themselves for a company? (Also: imagine writing a column like that with a face as meltingly smug as that cunt)

@sadams_s @brokenbottleboy @iainthomson Publications go through eras of editors, who decide what is and isn't worthy of coverage. They also encourage particular viewpoints they agree with. And FWIW that earlier era is over. Editors move on, editorial teams change over time. General ethos continues in other directions

@brokenbottleboy @iainthomson Awful bunch of articles and interference in comments sections which tarnishes the editorial integrity of El Reg. Question has to be asked: why was he allowed to do it? search.theregister.com/?q=Andrew+Orlo…

@TheRegister @TDaytonPM @risc_v @Calista_Redmond With bonus @jonmasters reference

So where is RISC-V at in the datacenter? Wonder no more: don't miss @TDaytonPM's interview with @risc_v CEO @Calista_Redmond From microcontrollers and China to server-class processors, we review the state of play in this article below nextplatform.com/2023/04/04/ris…

@SummerC0n @aloria !! Oh no. I'm so sorry

It is with profound sadness that we mourn the loss of our friend and mentor, @aloria. Kelly had an indomitable spirit, and our world is a bit darker without her.

@iainthomson I waved back, fwiw

Walked up the hill to view the city at night. Was going stir crazy in the house and no one's about, I'm masked, so why not.

@jackclarkSF @kyliebytes That time Billy Idol was booked to play at Dreamforce twitter.com/iainthomson/st…

@kyliebytes still shocked that they brought out the President of Haiti to profusely thank Benioff for what Salesforce had done for the country. wild stuff

@_msw_ @manugupt1 @sjvn @BrideOfLinux @koxinga21 Thanks, that's kind of you 🙂

@smikedickinson What would be on a Brit cheese board: Cheddar, Wensleydale, Red Leicester... I've not had RL for years. Smoked cheese doesn't exist here as far as I can tell

@diodesign Dairy industry interest group the British Cheese Board never fails to amuse me.

@BlaineGaither @TheRegister It's a huge risc for Arm, going toe to toe with Qualcomm

@diodesign @TheRegister It would seem that a RISK-V license is, in this case, less risky than one from ARM.

@wren6991 Or rather: ALAs aren't necessarily broad or open to transfer, so if you buy an ALA holder, you don't necessarily get the ALA nor can use it for whatever you want. It's gonna come down to the fine print and what Qualcomm is using exactly from its acquisition

@diodesign So an ALA licensee acquires another ALA licensee, and the IP evaporates in the middle? Oof. I bet every current licensee is watching this suit closely.

@Krewell Very good point!

@diodesign Could be that Nuvia was targeting just servers, while Qualcomm wants to take the cores to PCs and smartphones, and Arm wants different terms for those markets.

@notdan Incorrect.

California is the worst state in the USA.

@UK_Daniel_Card Do us journos still have to have a big red badge that says MEDIA on it?

This idea of Ian’s is amazing 😻
