Of that, $28 billion is to boost domestic production of cutting-edge logic and memory chips. The money will be distributed as grants, cooperative agreements, loan guarantees or loan subsidies. A further $10 billion is to improve speciality chipmaking for the automotive, medical device and defense industries. And $11 billion is for US research and development facilities, with the intention of creating new chip technologies that\u2019ll be made on American soil. It\u2019s a huge commitment, and one that recognizes the importance of staying at the forefront of the chip world or risk permanently falling behind.<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Daniel Cooper<\/p>\n<h3>The biggest stories you might have missed<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>\u200b\u200b<a href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/lead-playstation-architect-masayasu-leaving-sony-121035629.html\">Lead PlayStation architect Masayasu Ito is retiring after 36 years<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/sony-playstation-5-gray-camouflage-collection-announced-184052507.html\">Sony will let you shroud your PS5 in camouflage this fall<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/google-maps-eco-friendly-europe-directions-040032282.html\">Google Maps eco-friendly directions are coming to 40 European countries <\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/kiwi-farms-down-174054165.html\">Kiwi Farms is effectively offline following campaign to deplatform the hate site <\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/cyberpunk-2077-phantom-liberty-2023-expansion-details-173434698.html\">The first major &#8216;Cyberpunk 2077&#8217; expansion won&#8217;t come to PS4 or Xbox One <\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/twitter-musk-hearing-whistleblower-230213240.html\">Twitter&#8217;s lawyers say Elon Musk wanted out of the deal because of &#8216;World War 3,&#8217; not bots<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/google-pixel-7-event-announced-october-6th-170339977.html\">Google&#8217;s Pixel 7 and Pixel Watch event is scheduled for October 6th<\/a><\/h2>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/meta-connect-virtual-event-will-stream-live-oct-11-171849578.html\">And Meta&#8217;s virtual Connect event will stream live October 11th<\/a><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/google-pixel-7-event-announced-october-6th-170339977.html\"><\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\" alt=\"Google Event\" data-uuid=\"72bd5a90-5c93-3a87-833b-fe840ba85b2c\" \/><figcaption \/>\n<div class=\"photo-credit\">Google<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p>As one technology giant announces its new slate of devices, another two set their dates for their own parties.

Google spilled plenty of beans about what we could expect from the show at its I\/O developer conference this summer. So we can expect the Pixel 7, Pixel 7 Pro and the new Pixel Watch to hog the spotlight. Then, on October 11th, Meta will hold its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/meta-connect-virtual-event-will-stream-live-oct-11-171849578.html\">Connect event<\/a> to show off all that\u2019s new with augmented and virtual reality. We\u2019re expecting this to be the first official unveiling of Facebook\u2019s Project Cambria, a high-end VR headset likely to be sold under the name Meta Quest Pro. Plus another attempt or two to make Facebook\u2019s vision for our augmented future look a bit less cringe.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/google-pixel-7-event-announced-october-6th-170339977.html\"><strong>Continue Reading (Google)<\/strong><\/a><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/meta-connect-virtual-event-will-stream-live-oct-11-171849578.html\"><strong>Continue Reading (Meta).<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/best-fast-chargers-140011033.html\">The best fast chargers available right now<\/a><\/h2>\n<h3>Investing in a good fast charger is vital if you\u2019re always running out of juice.<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/best-fast-chargers-140011033.html\"><\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\" alt=\"Images of chargers.\" data-uuid=\"35dff5a1-d022-3835-ae81-9eb640b7463a\" \/><figcaption \/>\n<div class=\"photo-credit\">Sam Rutherford<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Sometimes, you just need to get electricity into your device as quickly and efficiently as you can, without causing it to blow up.

The issue hinges on a senior discount that AT&amp;T is piloting in Florida, giving users over the age of 55 cheaper phone plans. T-Mobile, which already offers a plan called Unlimited 55+, countrywide, has called out AT&amp;T, saying it\u2019s only offering senior discounts to Floridians.
