The inaugural fully mouse-controlled game for the new Nintendo Switch 2 is set to be released on Aug. 14, and you'll be able to grab it for $20. You won't be able to get a physical copy of Drag x Drive, however, because the game is limited to the Nintendo eShop. The pricing for Drag x Drive reflects the scope of the game, as this is a low-stakes party title spotlighting an underrepresented sport with quick pickup matches.

States and local governments would be limited in how they can regulate artificial intelligence under a proposal currently before Congress. AI leaders say the move would ensure the US can lead in innovation, but critics say it could lead to fewer consumer protections for the fast-growing technology.

Under Trump 2.0, Tech Companies Pull Back on Pride

Tech companies were happy to have their name appear alongside President Donald Trump’s strange, authoritarian-esque military parade. But they are suddenly seeming a bit shy about supporting Pride events. Wonder what that is about? CNBC reports that San Francisco Pride will not feature Facebook parent company Meta as one of its sponsors this year—a major absence from a company that once had a major presence at the parade. For what it’s worth, the disappearance of Meta’s branding appears to be a
