There's a handful of Windows game emulators taking off for Android. Using a modern snapdragon GPU, folks are playing Witcher 3, GTA 5. Some suffering gamer is playing through Dark Souls 2 using touch controls

This makes me want to buy the game...
Wait for a sale, they happen regularly and you'll want the DLC bundle

Just started playing the game a few weeks ago. It's very pretty.
From a game perspective it can seem pretty simplistic at first but there are a lot of interesting systems with hidden depth

Have you been a passenger in a Waymo? My only ride felt safer than every uber / Lyft driver I have ever had pretty much, so wondering how it compares to a beta thing you have to be able to take over in an instant.
Last time I was in SF I took 3 waymo rides and attempted a fourth. The attempted one was cancelled after 15 minutes of waiting for it being 2 minutes away. As best as I can tell, the waymo was stuck at an intersection where power had been lost and didn't understand it needed to treat it like a 4 way stop.
2 rides went fine though neither was particularly challenging. The third though the car decided to head down a narrow side street where a pickup in front was partially blocking the road making a dropoff. There was enough space to just squeeze by and it was clear the truck expected the car to. A few cars turned in behind the waymo, effectively trapping it in as it didn't know how to proceed. The dropoff eventually completed and it was able to pull forward

they have a video where they stress tested a table made out of EMT
Wild stuff. You can see the bottom horizontal trusses bending when loaded. EMT is just too thin walled for serious structural applications

EMT conduit isn't a great support material if you're handling human weight loads. The picture on the front page showing off the strength is visibly bending. It's kind of an awkward load profile, lower weight like an awning you're probably using ABS, higher weight you're using 1 1/4" system like steeltek or keeklamp
By the same logic, all gas cars should be taxed on a sliding scale, where the more fuel-efficient cars are taxed at a higher rate. It's important to society that we incentivise people to drive the most polluting and climate-destroying vehicles.
Petrol tax directly incentives fuel efficiency

Trying to understand his legal situation by analogizing with US law understanding strikes me as some real Dunning-Kruegering. Surely someone like Preston Byrne has someone he can reach out to to get a better understanding of the actual French legal situation Durov is in.
