The Securities and Exchange Commission intends to seek sanctions against Elon Musk over his failure to appear for testimony in an investigation related to his takeover of Twitter, now called X, the regulator said in a court filing Friday.

Earlier this year, a federal judge ordered Musk to testify as part of the SEC’s probe of the billionaire’s $44 billion acquisition. The agency is examining whether Musk followed the law when disclosing his purchases of Twitter stock and whether his statements in relation to the deal were misleading.

First four paragraphs (cause paywall won't let most people see this).

Chip giant Qualcomm made a takeover approach to rival Intel in recent days, according to people familiar with the matter, in what would be one of the largest and most consequential deals in recent years.

A deal for Intel, which has a market value of roughly $90 billion, would come as the chip maker has been suffering through one of the most significant crises in its five-decade history.

A deal is far from certain, the people cautioned. Even if Intel is receptive, a deal of that size is all but certain to attract antitrust scrutiny, though it is also possible it could be seen as an opportunity to strengthen the U.S.’s competitive edge in chips. To get the deal done, Qualcomm could intend to sell assets or parts of Intel to other buyers.

Intel—once the world’s most valuable chip company—had seen its shares drop roughly 60% so far this year before The Wall Street Journal reported on the approach. As recently as 2020, the company had a market value above $290 billion. The stock closed up over 3% Friday after the Journal’s report.

This would presumably let x86 windows games run on ARM hardware.

This is almost certainly meant for the next Valve VR headset, but ARM has so much better power efficiency than x86 that a future ARM based Deck would be a huge improvement to battery life.

Also see this tweet:

VR games that have already secretly pushed Android ARM builds onto the Steam Store are ran via Waydroid (androidARM to LinuxARM)

VR games that do not have an ARM build on Steam (windows x86) are being translated/emulated via ProtonARM and FEX

One of 50 men accused of raping the French woman Gisèle Pelicot after she was drugged by her husband accepted the charges on Thursday, saying he was sorry for what he did.

Lionel R, a 44-year-old supermarket worker and father of three, was among dozens of men accused of participating in the mass rape of Pelicot over a decade in a trial that has shocked France.

Gisèle Pelicot’s then husband, Dominique Pelicot, has admitted to drugging her into the state of a “deep coma” and inviting strangers he met in online chatrooms to rape her.

Gisèle Pelicot, who said she had not consented, requested that the trial be open to the public to raise awareness about the use of drugs to commit rape and sexual abuse.

Lionel R admitted in court that he had indeed raped Gisèle Pelicot on 2 December 2018, though he said he had not intended to. “Since I never obtained Mrs Pelicot’s consent, I have no choice but to accept the facts,” he told the court.

I think astrology is really fucking stupid and it annoys the fuck out of me when people won't shut the fuck up about it, especially when they KNOW you don't believe in it. The whole relationship I've wanted to say that but I bit my fucking tongue, but I'm single now (and high) so fuck you.

There I fucking said it. No I don't want to debate about it, I'm venting, let me have this tonight.

My wife likes to sculpt model horses for fun and she wanted some base heads that she could attach and sculpt/paint over. So I made her some of these little guys.
