Judge Accuses Elon Musk and Sam Altman of ‘Gamesmanship’ in Court

gizmodo.com Bruce Gil 2025-12-28 12:35:11

Elon Musk scored a small win in court on Tuesday in his case against Sam Altman, but the judge wasn’t impressed with either side’s tactics, reprimanding them for “gamesmanship.” Calling out both sides for having “repeatedly over-litigated the case,” U.S. District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers granted Musk’s motion to strike several of Altman’s defenses. This is the latest in Musk’s ongoing feud with Altman. Musk originally filed the lawsuit last year in a federal court in Northern California, a

A guide to using Edits, Meta’s CapCut rival for short-form video editing

techcrunch.com Aisha Malik 2025-12-28 12:17:11

Meta recently released a new video editing app for creators called Edits. The new app is designed to rival ByteDance’s CapCut, a popular short-form video-editing app used by many creators. Meta first shared that it was working on Edits back in January after ByteDance-owned CapCut was removed from U.S. app stores when the TikTok ban momentarily went into effect. Although the app has since come back online and is available to download, TikTok’s future in the U.S. remains uncertain, so Meta is rea

A new, faster-paced game mode is coming to Apex Legends on August 5

engadget.com Unknown 2025-12-28 17:00:48

The next season of Apex Legends kicks off on August 5, and it will see the arrival of a new, permanent game mode. Respawn says it built Wildcard as a faster-paced alternative to the core battle royale mode. For instance, when you take out an enemy, they won't leave behind a death box. Instead, their loot will scatter around them, making it easier for you to spot and pick up an item you need or want. Another big difference here is legend stacking.

Ubuntu Linux lagging? Try my 10 go-to tricks to speed it up

Yuichiro Chino/Getty Unless you're using a computer from the '90s or early 2000s, typically speaking, Ubuntu runs very well on most machines. I've found it to be fairly predictable in that respect. However, nothing is perfect, and you might run into an instance where the open-source operating system doesn't perform up to your standards. So, what do you do?

A rare, life-threatening complication caused by the flu seems to be surging among kids.

AIR lands $23M to bring its eVTOLs to the US

The combined forces of escalating geopolitical tensions and rising defense budgets are spurring many electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) makers to take a two-pronged approach to building their aircraft: crewed vehicles for personal or commercial taxi use, and uncrewed vehicles meant for logistics and defense purposes.
