Thanks. Kinda ugly that she's implying that Oracle should make another one near some other sleepy town with relatively inexpensive power.

Who is she saying this to? Hot mic means this was at a location that had a purpose, like a fundraiser or conference. Why is there only a tweet with NO CONTEXT?! We know people don't show up to vote so there won't be backlash. The question is if the person she was talking to is someone that would look somewhere else.
There is also the added advantage that half of the world's population lives within 150 miles of the ocean, so finding personnel shouldn't be a problem.
Seems like Phil saw them as a decent software company and a bad hardware company. Kinect, Zune, Kin, and Hololens don't stack up to the PS Move, Walkman, Xperia, and PS VR. The Switch 2 is selling, so the execs can't blame shrinking demand for hardware.
Depends on location. It would be best to have one for each cell carrier's network at your location +1 that is WiFi only. Therefore you can easily check where service is possible, and which one you're going to run the battery down on. Always use different logins on each device so you can exploit multiple app-based freebies.
Note that any email can be used for a Google account, for instance my username is the same @gmail, @outlook, and @yahoo and all three can be used to log into android. Prepaidcompare if you're in the US will give you the cheapest way to each network and typically Samsung, Apple, and Google (with Graphene) are the three phone brands to have.
What those drivers do is patented in the US. See MPEG licensing. VLC is based in the EU which does not have a mechanism for software patents that do not solve a physical problem (moving bits around isn't patentable there) so they can avoid issues. Microsoft, Corel, and Nero would not be able to do that, they have assets in the US, even if it would only be a bank account.
I would not be surprised if codec licensing would not allow shipping with old and open codecs like MJPEG, Theora and AV1 with an addon for the proprietary codecs.
