Arm Holdings ‘ lawsuit against Qualcomm ended in a mistrial on Friday, with a jury delivering a mixed verdict that found for Qualcomm on a crucial issue, saying Qualcomm had properly licensed its Snapdragon central processor chips. Arm’s shares were down 1.8% in extended trading after the news, and the San Diego-based wireless pioneer’s shares were up 1.8%. The outcome means the case could be tried again in the future. Judge Maryellen Noreika, who presided over the case in U.S. federal court in Delaware, encouraged Arm and Qualcomm to mediate their dispute. “I don’t think either side had a clear victory or would have had a clear victory if this case is tried again,” Noreika told the parties. After more than nine hours of deliberations over two days, the eight-person jury in U.S. federal court could not reach a unanimous verdict on the question of whether Nuvia, a startup that Qualcomm purchased for $1.4 billion in 2021, breached the terms of its license with Arm. But the jury found that Qualcomm did not breach Nuvia’s license with Arm. Support timely, comprehensive news. We have launched our year-end campaign. Our goal: Raise $50,000 by Dec. 31.

The jury also found that Qualcomm’s Snapdragon chips created using Nuvia technology, which have been central to Qualcomm’s push into the personal computer market, are properly licensed under its own agreement with Arm, clearing the way for Qualcomm to continue selling them. “The jury has vindicated Qualcomm’s right to innovate and affirmed that all the Qualcomm products at issue in the case are protected by Qualcomm’s contract with Arm,” Qualcomm said in a statement. Arm did not immediately return Reuters requests for comment. “My biggest worry was what happens to the future roadmap if they no longer have access to Nuvia (computing) cores,” Bernstein analyst Stacy Rasgon said. “At this point, that risk is a lot closer to being off the table.” Get Our Free Daily Email Newsletter Get the latest local and California news from Times of San Diego delivered to your inbox at 8 a.m. daily.

NYT ‘Connections’ Hints And Answers For Friday, December 6Thiruvananthapuram: The Thiruvananthapuram International Airport authorities have deployed a fleet of intelligent robots — a first in an airport in the state — to clean passenger terminals efficiently, faster, and minimizing water usage. These robots will scrub, dry, and dry mop the halls of both the domestic and international terminals and the forecourt, with options to add more areas based on requirements, said a statement. They can run for eight hours on a single charge and can clean up to 10,000 sq ft in an hour. The three robots can do 360-degree coverage and have advanced sensors to detect obstacles and reroute. " Automated cleaning ensures that the airport is always clean and presentable, enhancing the overall experience for passengers. A consistently clean environment improves customer satisfaction and elevates the airport's image as a modern, technologically advanced facility," said an official. The SD45 combo robot has a 45-litre freshwater tank and a 55-litre wastewater tank and can run for up to eight hours on a single charge. The machines can be remotely controlled using smartphones or tablets. The robot reduces the chances of mistakes whilst delivering enhanced sanitisation benefits, which is especially important in areas with significant footfall, he added.

The World Health Organization’s director-general said the bombardment on Thursday took place just “meters away” as he was about to board a flight in Sanaa. He says a crew member was hurt. The strikes followed several days of Houthi attacks and launches setting off sirens in Israel. Israel's military says it attacked infrastructure used by the Houthis at the international airport in Sanaa, power stations and ports. The Israeli military later said it wasn’t aware that the WHO chief was at the location in Yemen. An uneasy calm settles over Syrian city of Homs after outbreak of sectarian violence HOMS, Syria (AP) — Syria’s new security forces checked IDs and searched cars in the central city of Homs a day after protests by members of the Alawite minority erupted in gunfire and stirred fears that the country’s fragile peace could break down. A tense calm prevailed Thursday after checkpoints were set up throughout the country’s third-largest city, which has a mixed population of Sunni and Shia Muslims, Alawites and Christians. The security forces are controlled by the former insurgent group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, which led the charge that unseated former President Bashar Assad. The US says it pushed retraction of a famine warning for north Gaza. Aid groups express concern. WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. officials say they asked for — and got — the retraction of an independent monitor's warning of imminent famine in north Gaza. The internationally Famine Early Warning System Network issued the warning this week. The new report had warned that starvation deaths in north Gaza could reach famine levels as soon as next month. It cited what it called Israel's “near-total blockade” of food and water. The U.S. ambassador to Israel, Jacob Lew, criticized the finding as inaccurate and irresponsible. The U.S. Agency for International Development, which funds the famine-monitoring group, told the AP it had asked for and gotten the report's retraction. USAID officials tell The Associated Press that it had asked the group for greater review of discrepancies in some of the data. Powerful thunderstorms rumble across Texas, delaying holiday travel DALLAS (AP) — Severe thunderstorms are firing up in parts of Texas and could trigger high winds, hail and potential tornadoes. More than 100 flights were delayed and dozens more were canceled Thursday at airports in Dallas and Houston. The National Weather Service says the greatest weather risk stretched from just east of Dallas, and between Houston and portions of southern Arkansas and western Louisiana. The risk includes the possibility of tornadoes and wind gusts between 60 and 80 miles per hour, and large hail. The National Weather Service issued a tornado watch for several counties in southeast Texas, including the Houston area. Trump has pressed for voting changes. GOP majorities in Congress will try to make that happen ATLANTA (AP) — Republicans in Congress plan to move quickly in their effort to overhaul the nation’s voting procedures, seeing an opportunity with control of the White House and both chambers of Congress. They want to push through long-sought changes such as voter ID and proof-of-citizenship requirements. They say the measures are needed to restore public confidence in elections. That's after an erosion of trust that Democrats note has been fueled by false claims from Donald Trump and his allies of widespread fraud in the 2020 election. Democrats say they are willing to work with the GOP but want any changes to make it easier, not harder, to vote. Americans are exhausted by political news. TV ratings and a new AP-NORC poll show they're tuning out NEW YORK (AP) — A lot of Americans, after an intense presidential election campaign, are looking for a break in political news. That's evident in cable television news ratings and a poll from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research. The poll found nearly two-thirds of Americans saying they've found the need recently to cut down on their consumption of political and government news. That's particularly true among Democrats following President-elect Donald Trump's victory, although a significant number of Republicans and independents feel the same way. Cable networks MSNBC and CNN are really seeing a slump. That's also happened in years past for networks that particularly appeal to supporters of one candidate. Aviation experts say Russia's air defense fire likely caused Azerbaijan plane crash as nation mourns Aviation experts say that Russian air defense fire was likely responsible for the Azerbaijani plane crash the day before that killed 38 people and left all 29 survivors injured. Azerbaijan is observing a nationwide day of mourning on Thursday for the victims of the crash. Azerbaijan Airlines’ Embraer 190 was en route from Azerbaijan’s capital of Baku to the Russian city of Grozny in the North Caucasus on Wednesday when it was diverted for reasons yet unclear and crashed while making an attempt to land in Aktau in Kazakhstan. Cellphone footage circulating online appeared to show the aircraft making a steep descent before smashing into the ground in a fireball. Ukraine's military intelligence says North Korean troops are suffering heavy battlefield losses KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Ukraine's military intelligence says North Korean troops are suffering heavy losses in Russia's Kursk region and face logistical difficulties as a result of Ukrainian attacks. The intelligence agency said Thursday that Ukrainian strikes near Novoivanovka inflicted heavy casualties on North Korean units. Ukraine's president said earlier this week that 3,000 North Korean troops have been killed and wounded in the fighting in the Kursk region. It marked the first significant estimate by Ukraine of North Korean casualties several weeks after Kyiv announced that North Korea had sent 10,000 to 12,000 troops to Russia to help it in the almost 3-year war. Ex-Sen. Bob Menendez, citing 'emotional toll,' seeks sentencing delay in wake of wife's trial NEW YORK (AP) — Former U.S. Sen. Bob Menendez is asking a federal judge to delay his end-of-January sentencing on bribery charges, saying his family would suffer a “tremendous emotional toll” if the New Jersey Democrat was sentenced during his wife's trial. His lawyers told Judge Sidney H. Stein in a letter that Nadine Menendez would face a jury that might find it impossible not to hear about her husband's sentencing if it occurred eight days into her trial. The 70-year-old Menendez was convicted in July of 16 charges, including bribery. His wife, whose trial was postponed when she was diagnosed with breast cancer, faces much of the same evidence as her husband. How the stock market defied expectations again this year, by the numbers NEW YORK (AP) — What a wonderful year 2024 has been for investors. U.S. stocks ripped higher and carried the S&P 500 to records as the economy kept growing and the Federal Reserve began cutting interest rates. The benchmark index posted its first back-to-back annual gains of more than 20% since 1998. The year featured many familiar winners, such as Big Tech, which got even bigger as their stock prices kept growing. But it wasn’t just Apple, Nvidia and the like. Bitcoin and gold surged and “Roaring Kitty” reappeared to briefly reignite the meme stock craze.

Dropping your points, grabbing a cold one, and guzzling down a fresh bottle of your favorite Perk-a-Cola is a time-honored tradition in CoD Zombies. There’s no better feeling than finally grabbing the Perk you’ve been hunting down and turning the tides on the undead. Yet with every CoD game, there’s a limit. You can only have so many Perks equipped at once, as to keep the experience balanced. With Black Ops 6 , however, that just went out the window thanks to an absurd bug that lets you stack an unlimited amount of upgrades. You can grab dozens of the same Perk and run wild on any given map. Juggernog can provide hundreds of extra health while PhD Flopper can turn your dolphin dives into nukes. The choice is yours and here’s how it’s all done. broke some sh*t on zombies got 52 perks, might need a patch. vid coming in a moment..... #BlackOps6Zombies pic.twitter.com/RMw9DmYsMM How to get unlimited perks with Black Ops 6 Zombies bug As first uncovered by Zombies player SpecDec and their friend, YouTuber Glitching Queen shared the exploit so the masses can enjoy it before an inevitable fix arrives. Proving the effectiveness, she revealed she had accumulated a staggering 52 Perks by round 15. Her eight Juggernogs provided a whopping 1,350 health, essentially turning her invincible. In order to execute the trick, you first have to glitch your Gobblegums to ensure you get the right ones in-game. There are a few in particular that are absolutely necessary for the glitch, so you must have them equipped. Two of these are Phoenix Up and Near Death Experience, two Gobblegums that focus on revives. The idea of the bug is to go down and be revived with all your Perks, plus a few extras. Related: One player needs to pop the Near Death Experience Gobblegum as soon as Round 1 begins. However, they mustn’t revive anyone. Instead, keep a crawler alive and let the Gobblegum timer run out. When it does, that player is then able to revive everyone else in the lobby for the rest of the game, and when doing so, downed players keep all their Perks. There is a slight trick to it all, however, as you need to stand far away from the person reviving when going down. If you’re downed in close proximity, the glitch can be finicky and not duplicate any Perks. While one or more players are down, the one who popped the Gobblegum has to go and pick up power-ups throughout the map. While these can be obtained from various Easter eggs, you can always pop the Raindrops Gobblegum to expedite the process. Once that’s done, simply head back to the downed player, revive them, and watch as 2-3 additional Perks are added. Repeat the process until your heart’s content and you can watch as the Perk icons fly off the screen with dozens piling up, Treyarch is sure to nip this one in the bud as soon as possible so don’t expect this exploit to be accessible for all too long.
