Fordham mentioned that Ms Price also opposes an Indigenous voice to parliament, and she replied that Labor is 'certainly not recognising the voices that actually instigated the (cashless Centrelink) card in the first place'.

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.

Putin might be hoping that threats alone will slow Western weapon supplies to Ukraine and buy time to train 300,000 additional troops he's mobilizing, triggering protests and an exodus of service-aged men.

The review pointed to a 25.8 per cent fall in alcohol-related assaults, a 37.6 per cent drop in alcohol-related hospital admissions in Alice Springs and a 24.2 per cent decrease in admissions in Tennant Creek.

'What they don't understand (is) for those who actually live under the pressures of traditional Aboriginal culture in places like the Northern Territory ... is your family has access to everything you own.'

The original game saw an unusually active post-launch life, with new content and expansions fleshing out existing gameplay. There was even a spinoff battle royale-inspired game in Dying Light: Bad Blood. The sequel is in many ways a continuation of this, keeping people engaged for the long haul. The developer has pledged that Dying Light 2 will receive five years of support after its launch this month.

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.

'It is still a taboo in Russia to cross that threshold,' said Dara Massicot, a senior policy researcher at RAND Corp. and a former analyst of Russian military capabilities at the U.S. Defense Department.

Like many developers, Techland experienced unexpected trials thanks to ongoing COVID-related lockdowns. The team at Techland had just moved into new facilities in the months before the pandemic hit, making the work-from-home transition even more challenging.

"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, Pkvgames chip analyst at Moor Insights & Strategy.

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.

'I don't think there will be a bolt out of the blue,' said Nikolai Sokov, who took part in arms control negotiations when he worked for Russia's Foreign Ministry and is now with the Vienna Center for Disarmament and Non-Proliferation.

'Just to give you a hypothetical, we would respond by leading a NATO - a collective - effort that would take out every Russian conventional force that we can see and identify on the battlefield in and also in Crimea and every ship in the Black Sea.    

What makes Dying Light 2 such a gamble is that it's not only Techland's largest game to date, but also entirely self-published, which is another part of Techland's ambitious plans for growth. Another thing that makes Dying Light 2 such a gamble is the timing of its release -- it's now a game of the COVID era.

The sequel is set in a world that's described as a "modern dark age" following a global pandemic that resulted in zombies taking over the Earth. The concept will undoubtedly raise eyebrows considering how life has changed since 2020, two years after Dying Light 2 was first announced. This isn't wasn't lost on the game's creators.

Russia's massive stockpile of nuclear weapons is the last credible threat Putin has in his struggle with the West, now that his once-vaunted army is proving to be inferior to the Ukrainian army and Europe is so far standing firm against his gas hostage diplomacy. 

Therefore, Putin might consider that, in order to signal to the West that he means business, his only option would be to drop a nuke on Ukrainian positions - either military, civilian or infrastructure. 

Tencent's new strategy indicates how China's tech titans are looking to emerge from the regulatory shadows after two years of crackdown and uncertainty that weighed on their sales at home and triggered a massive selloff in their stocks.

The former KGB agent has demonstrated an appetite for risk and brinkmanship. It's hard, even for Western intelligence agencies with spy satellites, to tell if Putin is bluffing or truly intent on breaking the nuclear taboo.

From 2015 to 2020, the owner of China's number one messaging app WeChat 150 investments at home totalling $75 billion, compared to 102 deals worth $33 billion in overseas markets, according to Refinitiv data.

Though commonly associated with hits like Dying Light, Dead Island and the Call of Juarez franchises, Techland has a long and deep history within the Polish games industry, alongside other studios like CD Projekt Red and Blooper Team. From small beginnings as a burgeoning Polish publisher to a force in big-budget action games, Dying Light 2 is Techland's most ambitious game yet. It's also the company's biggest gamble.
