Faber says that an acquisition isn’t happening “today.” This could simply be Faber’s way of saying the acquisition isn’t happening period. And maybe we’re reading too much into it, but just maybe, today actually means today. And isn’t necessarily ruling out the possibility of an announcement at a later date. — CNBC Now (@CNBCnow) August 26, 2022

This sports the Ultra dock, which has the ability to empty the dustbin as you might expect, but also refill the water reservoir, and clean the mop.

Samsung is known as, among other things, a display company. It, along with the likes of HTC and LG, has made high-quality LCD panels.

Nonetheless, the Galaxy S21 FE has appeared in leaks once again, this time courtesy of a US wireless carrier: Cricket Wireless....

It also allows for a smaller footprint of the processors. The Korean firm is supplying the initial production run of its 3nm solutions to a Chinese firm that makes processors for cryptocurrency mining. However, the company isn’t counting on it as a long-term client because of the nature of the industry it is associated with....
