The whispers in the gallery are that there’s a “sealing” problem.
Or maybe a ceiling problem? I looked up, and the ceiling tiles look just fine, though. Guessing there’s a risk that some piece of evidence wasn’t properly sealed.
He’s sitting basically right in front of me (and one to the right).
Outside the courtroom, Tim told me he won’t be a witness today. I guess he’s here to watch it all kick off.
Butts are still in seats for now, but we’ve been informed that the judge will boot us out for a bit after he arrives. I’ll let you know when it happens, if I have enough time.
Epic v. Google is about to kick off — you can read my explainer here — and I’m in the courtroom to bring you updates live. No phones or recording devices allowed inside, so this is the only picture you’ll get!
Here’s our StoryStream where I’ll be doing live updates like this one.
A jury will decide whether Google’s Android app store is an illegal monopoly in the Epic v. Google trial starting Monday, November 6th.
The jury wasn’t on lock: when Match Group reached a surprise settlement with Google, leaving Epic to fight alone, Judge James Donato said he’d hear arguments for a bench trial instead. He heard them — but says no, Google already agreed to the jury trial.
Sure, it looks cool, but what can you do with a mini Game Boy Camera? Vjeran and I hit the streets of San Francisco to capture a few landmarks. Want one? The DIY design is ready if you’ve got fine soldering skills!
Digital Foundry’s Alex Battaglia put together this fantastic video visually comparing every setting across PS5 and PC — explaining why “1080p DLSS Medium” actually looks pretty great. (The PS5 runs a mix of Medium and Low spec.)
Unfortunately, he (and Rock Paper Shotgun’s James Archer) also show older and lower-end GPUs can’t keep up. Think 2080 or better to get 60fps, with DLSS on.
