    Now Trump is reportedly meddling in the World Cup, too.

    Trump has injected himself into Netflix’s business dealings, intervened in the antitrust case against Ticketmaster, and turned the FCC into his attack dog. Now he’s reportedly sullied the beautiful game by pressuring FIFA president Gianni Infantino to review the suspension of the United States’ top scorer, Folarin Balogun.

    Louis Rossmann is taking Samsung to court for trying to weasel out of a warranty on an SSD.

    Rossmann tried to replace his dead 4TB 990 Pro under warranty. Samsung sent the dead drive back, claiming it worked. Then it said the drive was out of stock (even though it’s not). I’m sure the fact that the 990 Pro now sells for over $900 instead of the $330 Rossmann paid has nothing to do with it.

    Devs will apparently still be able to order discs for existing PlayStation games.

    According to Game File, in private communications, Sony told developers that games released before the January 1, 2028 cutoff could still get reorders of physical copies in 2028. So expect a glut of unfinished games to hit shelves in December 2027, just to ensure companies can still get discs.

    The landmark James Cameron blockbuster turns 35 this year. It’s easy to forget sometimes how difficult it must have been for ILM to solve the problems posed by early ‘90s CGI, develop new technologies, and scale up to the over 100 CG shots required by T2.
