It’s the DJI Osmo Mobile 7 Pro. Personally, I prefer the Osmo Pocket 3’s dedicated camera instead of slapping my smartphone on a stick, but these hidden legs, arm, and snap-on eye are all pretty cool!
Unlike the Steam Workshop or local content mods, this SDK gives mod makers the ability to change, extend or rewrite TF2, making anything from small tweaks to complete conversions possible.
The SDK is licensed to users on a non-commercial basis, meaning that any mod created using the SDK must be free, and any content in those mods must be free. TF2 mods may be published on the Steam Store, and after publication will appear as new games in the Steam game list.
Free total conversions for Half-Life and Half-Life 2 arguably made me a PC gamer. Can’t wait to see what people build.

Alongside Trump’s upcoming 25 percent auto tariffs, chips will see tariffs as well. In response to a reporter’s question about tariffs on pharma and chips (thanks, C-SPAN):
It’ll be 25% and higher, and it’ll go very substantially higher over the course of a year, but we want to give them time to come in because, as you know, when they come into the United States and they have their plant or factory here, there is no tariff. So we want to give them a little bit of a chance.
He’d previously suggested he’d impose 100 percent tariffs on Taiwanese chips, so perhaps he’s slightly backing off. The new tariffs could come as soon as April 2nd. Computers assembled in China will also cost more because of Trump’s 10 percent tariffs on China.
CEO Nirav Patel tells The Verge:
“Because we manufacture Framework Laptops and Mainboards in Taiwan, we have limited impact from the additional recently introduced tariffs. Some of our modules are manufactured in China, so we are taking this into account for future module pricing for US customers in the Framework Marketplace as we also continue to diversify our supply base.”
Acer just announced 10 percent laptop price increases. Framework will announce new mystery products next week.
Yesterday, President Trump accused TSMC: “Taiwan took our chip business away.”
But Bloomberg and The New York Times have anonymous sources saying Trump’s pick for commerce secretary is encouraging TSMC to do a deal. Bloomberg’s source says TSMC is open to it; The NYT’s sources suggest Intel might be interested too; its board reportedly approached TSMC and its interim chairman reportedly met directly with both TSMC’s CEO and Trump’s people.
And yet, Reuters now reports that Trump is “unlikely” to support a foreign firm operating Intel’s factories. Intel’s CHIPS Act money also came with strings attached that could interfere, but Reuters reports that Trump may be renegotiating those deals.
