AMD Revenue Warning Signals Deep Chip Slump; Shares Dive 4

'We extend our deepest condolences to the entire Chheda family. Park Tudor counselors are available to assist any members of our community who may require support; please keep the Chheda family in your thoughts and prayers.' 
NEW: I talked to a friend of Varun Chheda, the student killed at Purdue. Andrew Wu says Varun was kind, smart and passionate. As for Varun's roommate, now arrested for his murder, Wu says Varun never said much about him. Live reports coming on

This makes your university a joy to zoom in on, to get a closer look at its cartoon weirdos, with names like Dennis Gutterflake and Synapse Periwinkle, as they handle rayguns in science class or flirt near the statue of love.

That's because I've been playing Two Point Campus, the new game from the delightful people who brought us Two Point Hospital. Both are management simulations, which is one of the most misleadingly anodyne names in all gaming.
As people who grew up playing Theme Park in 1990s will tell you, managing things can be tremendously fun.
Even when Marvel's Spider-Man threatens to be like other games — sending you to some part of the city, so that you can beat up some goons, so that you can upgrade your skills — there's always its amazing take on simply getting around.

Runaway inflation and the reopening of offices and schools have led people to spend less on PCs than they did during lockdowns when many bought computers for work and school as they stayed home during the pandemic.

Chheda, 20, suffered multiple sharp force injuries to his body inside his dorm room at McCutcheon Hall after midnight on October 5. His roommate, Gji Min Sha, 22, has since been arrested for the crime. 

'Of note, we discuss how Hans became the fastest rising top player in Classical OTB chess in modern recorded history much later in life than his peers and did it after we had removed him from playing on our site in 2020.'

Sam Antar is the nephew of Eddie Antar (pictured right in 1992), who founded the Crazy Eddie electronics stores in the 1970s and 1980s, who defrauded investors out of more than $74million. Eddie Antar died in 2016

That said, it admitted that there was 'no direct evidence that proves Hans cheated at the September 4, 2022 game with Magnus, or proves that he has cheated in other OTB [over the board] games in the past.'

'Varun Chheda was a very kind, gentle young man with an absolutely brilliant mind, and he would have done amazing things in and for this world,' Laughner wrote on Facebook. 'It's a tragedy that his life was senselessly taken before he had a chance to do so.' 

It's also fun because, well, it's fun. Like its ward-based forbear, Two Point Campus has a colourful look and a lightly sardonic sense of humour.
Your establishment's tannoy will blurt out advice like: ‘Students are reminded to set reminders.' And rather than a redbrick, you're more likely to be setting up a castle-like school for knights, with classes in jousting.

Last week memory chip maker Micron Technology warned of tougher times and said it was cutting its capex investments in fiscal 2023 by over 30% to a total of $8 billion. Nvidia Corp and Intel Corp both delivered much worse than expected earnings in their latest reports.
And just when things looked on the up for 2016, the Eels were struck down by allegations of salary-cap rorting that eventually led to the stripping of 12 points and a complete restructure of their administration.

Oct 6 (Reuters) - Chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices Inc on Thursday provided third-quarter revenue estimates that were about a billion dollars less than previously forecast, signaling the chip slump could be much worse than expected.

Hans Niemann, 19, was accused of cheating by world champion Magnus Carlsen last month after the teen managed to beat the Norwegian - widely considered to be the world's best chess player - seemingly without concentrating. 

And Two Point Campus certainly is fun, not least for its gameplay. If you've played a management sim before, then you'll know what to expect: you lay out the rooms and furniture of a university; hire teachers to do the teaching, janitors to do the maintenance; then try to keep everyone happy — especially the students — while making some money along the way.

I'm doing this because of a recent(ish) change of policy at Sony. They used to be very guarded about their ‘PlayStation exclusives' — which is to say, Pkv Games that could only be played on PlayStations and not any other console.

Some students said they heard Chheda's distant screams throughout the building, but fellow student Andrew Wu heard him echo in his ear, he told Arunabh Sinha, a childhood friend of Chheda, further confirmed to that Chheda was playing with his friends and chatting through Discord when Sha allegedly killed him.

"I think AMD is showing that nobody is safe from the post-pandemic PC downturn, and those inventory corrections are also impacting the company," said Anshel Sag, chip analyst at Moor Insights & Strategy.
