Pat Gelsinger’s Intel will evolve from lone wolf to touting modular systems-on-packages with third-party foundry collaboration

Re: How the mighty have fallen

Agreed. Gelsinger was the CTO of Intel when he left in 2009 so is at least partially culpable for the arrogance and lack of innovation that led to AMD eating their lunch in the early 00's. (I had the misfortune to work there for a few years!) Still, good luck to him - he'll need it!

We see what you did there: First-stage booster from Rocket Lab's Return to Sender mission floats back to Earth

Exclusive club - huh?

Great achievement, but didn't NASA recover and refurbish solid rocket boosters from the Space Shuttle by parachute into the Atlantic Ocean in the 1980's?

WTF is... VoLTE

Re: Fallback.

The 2 - 4 second CSFB delay is also there on receiving a call so lots of 'Hello, who's there??? Hello, who's there???' when someone calls you on your shiny new 4G mobe. The CSFB delay is also present with SMS for the same reasons but not as noticeable.

As for handover between cells mid-call; 2G - 3G cell handovers are hard enough, so 'good luck' with VoLTE - 2G/3G!
