Abstract: Examples described herein involve switching between two user accounts of a streaming media service. In an example implementation, a playback device stores data representing credentials for multiple user accounts including a first user account of a first streaming audio service and a second user account of the first streaming audio service. The playback device receives instructions to play first audio content from the first streaming audio service and plays back the first audio content by streaming data representing the first audio content from one or more servers of the first streaming audio service using credentials of the first user account. The playback device detects a trigger associated with the first user account of the first streaming audio service and switches from streaming data representing the first audio content using credentials of the first user account to streaming data representing the first audio content using credentials of the second user account.

Abstract: In accordance with some embodiments, the render rate is varied across and/or up and down the display screen. This may be done based on where the user is looking in order to reduce power consumption and/or increase performance. Specifically the screen display is separated into regions, such as quadrants. Each of these regions is rendered at a rate determined by at least one of what the user is currently looking at, what the user has looked at in the past and/or what it is predicted that the user will look at next. Areas of less focus may be rendered at a lower rate, reducing power consumption in some embodiments.

Abstract: Described herein are three-dimensional transistors with a recessed gate, and IC devices including such three-dimensional transistors with recessed gates. The transistor includes a channel material having a recess. The channel material is formed over a support structure, and source/drain regions are formed in or on the channel material, e.g., one either side of the recess. A gate stack extends through the recess. The distance between the gate stack and the support structure is smaller than the distance between one of the source/drain regions and the support structure. This arrangement increases the channel length relative to prior art transistors, reducing leakage.

Abstract: Microelectronic assemblies fabricated using hybrid manufacturing with modified via-last process are disclosed. The fabrication approach is based on using hybrid manufacturing to bond first and second IC structures originally provided on different dies but filling at least portions of vias that are supposed to couple across a bonding interface between the first and second IC structures with electrically conductive materials after the IC structures have been bonded. A resulting microelectronic assembly that includes the first and second IC structures bonded together may have vias extending through all of the first IC structure and into the second IC structure, thus providing electrical coupling between one or more components of the first IC structure and those of the second IC structure, where an electrically conductive material in the individual vias is continuous through the first IC structure and at least a portion of the second IC structure.
