Up to 279 passengers could fly between London and San Francisco, USA direct or Auckland, New Zealand with just one stop with the same speed and comfort as today’s aircraft, revolutionising the future of air travel.
It's secretly benefiting the smaller game studios because Microsoft is basically giving up marketshare. The real question is whether MS wants to buy any more studios.
It's also why there's no way Google can sustain these numbers. They pay workers like a random startup, just without any possibility of striking it rich on stock options. They are likely to be hemorrhaging talent at all engineering positions.
Hyosung Heavy Industries has succeeded in commercializing the world's first hydrogen engine generator, a key product in the development of next-generation carbon-free power.
In recent times, triple-A publishers have repeatedly had their lunch eaten — at least, in terms of mindshare — by more creatively nimble indies.

MS is ironically breaking up several big publishers and creating a slew of small, independent game studios. Basically out of their own incompetence. It silently heralds a new and hopefully much better era in gaming.
Also, it's time to seriously wonder about the future of the Xbox console. It seems hopeless at this point. It probably has too small of a marketshare to justify any exclusives, even first-party ones. You wonder when MS will have to just admit that it is a PC in a box, and begin selling it as one.
Toyota has been making some strong moves in H2 recently, and its execs are now pointing to hydrogen pickup trucks as a notable opportunity for the company’s zero-emission lineup.
A breakthrough in hydrogen production has been achieved by a Japanese research team, reducing the need for iridium by 95% without compromising efficiency, paving the way for sustainable, large-scale hydrogen energy solutions.
AI’s voracious need for computing power is threatening to overwhelm energy sources, requiring the industry to change its approach to the technology, according to Arm Holdings Plc Chief Executive Officer Rene Haas.
United Kingdom-based zero-emission bus manufacturer Wrightbus has reached a milestone deal to provide 46 hydrogen buses to Germany, taking a demo bus from Belfast, Northern Ireland, to showcase its reliability and range.
SK E&S has completed the world’s largest liquefied hydrogen production plant in Incheon, Korea. The plant will produce enough liquefied hydrogen for 5,000 hydrogen buses to use for a year, signaling the start of the hydrogen mobility era.
Sichuan province is going all out to support the hydrogen energy industry's development. This follows a conference held in late April on further promoting the application of the hydrogen industry chain. The Inner Mongolia and Xinjiang Uygur autonomous regions also have abundant traditional and new energy resources.
