by Mike Neubauer I agree. I've already got over 80 hours into it. I can no longer play the board game because I can see how much I forget and misplay. The steam game takes the book flipping and tension counter counting and the rest of that into the rubbish bin, which makes it easier to take getting beat on by Russia and China Actions. After 20 tries I got through my first game turn tonight. Huzzah!. It ain't easy.

Thread: Dune: War for Arrakis:: Rules:: no more unoccupied Air Zones when trying to place a Space Frigate

13 May 2026 @ 8:50 am

by maniacow Sorry for the language question, I know the faq says:" If there are not enough unoccupied Air Zones to place all Space Frigates (both Atreides and Harkonnen), the Harkonnen player must first remove 1 Ornithopter or Carryall from an Air Zone for each Space Frigate that cannot be placed."And I also know that verb MUST implies obligation... so:1-. It means that all Frigates that have to be deployed on the board will force the harkonen player yo remove one carryall or ornithopter for each remaining frigate?2-. If 1 it's correct, the harkonnen player is the one who choses where to leave the empty space for the frigate?Thank you

13 March 2019 @ 12:30 am

According to a recent report by Digitimes, Intel’s CPU supply shortage will continue to worsen through the 2H2019 as demand for entry level and mainstream notebooks such as Chromebooks and Core i3-based notebooks continue to increase without the proper increase in supply to sustain the growth.

Apple won't be able to get F1 rights for the UK and Italy for at least six years

13 May 2026 @ 6:13 am

Starting with the 2026 season, the broadcast rights holder for Formula 1 in the US is Apple, which is offering the competition through its Apple TV+ streaming service over there. Apple hasn't officially declared that it wants to do a similar deal internationally, but it stands to reason that it might have at least looked at some of the biggest markets. Unfortunately, three of those are now out of consideration since Sky has just renewed its agreements for broadcasting F1 in the UK, Ireland, and Italy. The contract has been renewed through 2032 in Italy and through 2034 in the UK and...

Samsung's next Unpacked launch event now has a rumored date

The grand Unpacked event where all of these products will be introduced is said to be taking place in London on July 22. The Galaxy Watch9 series will also be made official on the same stage. The much-rumored Galaxy Fold Wide is also likely to be there, since Samsung may want to pre-empt the arrival of the iPhone Ultra in September with a very similar form factor. The Galaxy Glasses are designed in partnership with Gentle Monster, and are running...

Dimensity 9600 leak suggests major single-core gains and class-leading GPU performance

13 May 2026 @ 3:33 am

The next wave of flagship Android phones and tablets will, for the most part, use chipsets from either Qualcomm or MediaTek. We’ve already seen some details for the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6, and we are now getting our first bits of info for the Dimensity 9600. Tipster Digital Chat Station revealed that the upcoming flagship SoC from MediaTek will be fabricated on a 2nm process node, without confirming whether it will be TSMC’s N2P or Samsung’s SF2.

Sony Xperia 1 VIII review

Sony Xperia 1 VIII unveiled with larger 48MP telephoto sensor, Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5

13 May 2026 @ 2:00 am

The new Sony Xperia 1 VIII has a new 1/1.56” sensor inside its telephoto camera – it’s four times larger than the sensor inside the Mark 7 model and it has four times the resolution too. The new model also redesigns the camera island, jumps to the latest Qualcomm chipset all while still maintaining trademark Xperia features like the expandable storage, the 3.5mm headphone jack and the two-stage shutter key. Let’s go back to the cameras – Sony changed course in a major way. The Mark 7, 6, 5 and 4 had continuous optical zoom like on a point-and-shoot camera. Even the Mark 3 could switch...

eBay rejects GameStop's takeover offer

13 May 2026 @ 12:31 am

eBay has rejected GameStop's offer to buy it for $56 billion, calling it "neither credible nor attractive", Bloomberg is reporting. The offer came last week, when GameStop said it would pay $125 per eBay share. Intriguingly, GameStop's market value is about $11 billion, while eBay's is $45 billion, so this is definitely a case of a small fish wanting to eat a much bigger one. The GameStop bid is half cash and half GameStop stock, and represents a 20% premium over eBay's current stock price. GameStop will have to borrow $20 billion to finance the acquisition, but when asked its CEO couldn't...

In our head-to-head comparison article, the Samsung Galaxy S25+ and Galaxy S26+ traded blows – well, “blows” may be too strong a word considering how similarly the two performed. And as we noted in that article, the older 2025 Plus is cheaper. Right now, Amazon US has a 256GB Galaxy S25+ at $700 – that’s $300 less than when the phone launched. Meanwhile, the S26+ got a price hike and the 256GB model normally costs $1,100, though that is discounted to a more reasonable $925 at the moment. Samsung Galaxy S25+ ...
