*> Qualcomm's Nuvia-based stuff, but that's been "nearly released" for what feel...

Good to know that it's finally seeing the light. I thought they're still in legal dispute with ARM about Nuvia's design?

Not privy to details, but some legal disputes can be resolved by licensing price negotiations, motivated by customer launch deadlines.

speaking of which, whatever happened to qualcomm's bizarre assertion that ARM was pulling a sneak move in all its new licensing deals to outlaw third-party IP entirely and force ARM-IP-only?

there was one quiet "we haven't got anything like that in the contract we're signing with ARM" from someone else, and then radio silence. And you'd really think that would be major news, because it's massively impactful on pretty much everyone, since one of the major use-cases of ARM is as a base SOC to bolt your custom proprietary accelerators onto...

seemed like obvious bullshit at the time from a company trying to "publicly renegotiate" a licensing agreement they probably broke...
