arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-08-26 16:17:54

After sending cease-and-desist letters to VMware users whose support contracts had expired and who subsequently declined to subscribe to one of Broadcom’s VMware bundles, Broadcom has started the process of conducting audits on former VMware customers. Broadcom stopped selling VMware perpetual licenses in November 2023 in favor of pushing a small number of VMware SKUs that feature multiple VMware offerings.

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2025-08-27 04:30:54

Gareth Edwards knows a thing or two about sci-fi films. And whether he’s creating his own unique worlds, like Monsters or The Creator, or working in someone else’s, like Godzilla or Rogue One, the director thinks one thing links the entire genre together. “[Sci-fi] films are never really about spaceships, robots or dinosaurs,” he told io9. “They feel pointless if they are. They [only] have meaning when the whole thing is kind of an analogy for something else.” So, what is Edwards’ latest film,

Gareth Edwards Toiled Over Using John Williams’ Music in ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2025-08-28 20:00:55

One of the weirdest choices made in the previous three Jurassic World films was not to lean on John Williams’ iconic score from the original Jurassic Park. On the one hand, you understand the score elicits emotions very specific to that one movie and won’t always necessarily line up with the story being told.

Beyond easing setup for end users, the technology also played an unexpected role in exposing a cartel of PC manufacturers that had been exploiting a hardware feature to provide full versions of trial software packages to their customers.
