Paul is back from Berlin! Mikah Sargent subs in for Leo, while Richard brings a glass of Einar's whisky to the show! They talk about the latest from IFA 2024, including the state of Intel, AMD, and Qualcomm. Later, tune in for intriguing updates about Parallels Desktop, Windows 10's Photos app, and Apple's lineup of (currently) AI-less devices.

IFA Part Deux

  • More perspective from industry insiders on where Intel, AMD and Qualcomm are at now
  • Why did Qualcomm launch lower-end Snapdragon X chips now?
  • Intel bails on 20A manufacturing process to focus on 18A - making lemonade
  • Intel lands a punch with Lunar Lake. Is it enough for a comeback?
  • Qualcomm has reportedly been trying to buy Intel's chip design business for months
  • Lenovo launches new PCs with Intel, AMD, and Qualcomm chips - Photo gallery
  • Copilot+ PC-class PCs with AMD and Intel chips come with 24H2e

    • Windows

    • Patch Tuesday arrives - 22H2/23H2 and 24H2 all get updates - same as last month's preview updates, of course
    • Microsoft still doesn't list 24H2 in Windows 11 Update History on the Support sit
    • Parallels Desktop 20 will benefit from Microsoft's Prism emulator too
    • Microsoft is updating Photos app in Windows 10 too
    • It's not just macOS Sequoia, ChromeOS is copying Windows's Snap feature too

      • Apple launches new devices but AI is not ready

      • Apple launches iPhone 16 series without AI, plus new Apple Watch and AirPods 4 also without AI... and confirms next software updates, also without AI - AI is for later, sometimes much later
      • This was a lackluster launch by any measure. But AI might make things more interesting in time
      • Dashlane recommends skipping out on Apple Passwords

        • Microsoft 365, AI, more
