It won't survive a court challenge, as the Supreme Court already ruled on this back in 1995 in the case of U.S. Term Limits, Inc. v. Thornton. The ruling says that states can't add additional eligibility requirements to be elected to or otherwise serve in federal office beyond what the constitution lists.

Digital Foundry review for those that are interested. They generally give it the thumbs up. Not much in the way of new graphical features over the PS5, but just the higher resolution and DLSS/FSR makes a big difference. I've got it waiting on my computer to try out tonight. I loved Zero Dawn, so I'm really excited to finally play this

There's one exception to this: the southern leg of Texas Highway 130, which runs east of Interstate 35 between San Antonio and Austin, has an 85mph speed limit.

Feels weird to think that MAGFest takes place at this same hotel a little over a month earlier. I didn't go this year, but I've been a few times. Katsucon was also at the same hotel earlier this month, as it always is.

Just imagine if they were back to back and Nazis starting walking into a hotel full of cosplayers

This is pretty much it. I recall hearing the devs say they're going to finish up some minor updates post-Phantom Liberty before calling it a day. I'm surprised they even came out with this.

Once they officially call it quits with CP77 soon, they will complete a currently ongoing reorganization of the company: RedEngine will be abandoned in favor of UE5, devs who want to work on Witcher 4 will remain in Poland to do that (many have already started apparently). Devs working on the next Cyberpunk game will follow Pawel Sasko to Boston and open CDPR North America, starting work on that game there.

The sentencing won't be happening today after all. The judge fell ill today, so it'll be delayed until some time next week.

Well he won't be doing anything regardless, since he's currently suspended. Texas law dictates that anyone impeached by the state House (such as Paxton) is suspended from office while they await trial in the Senate.

These devs have had to work through a full scale invasion of their country. The fact that the game is making progress towards a release at all at this point is borderline miraculous.

From what I can tell, LMG has, for some time, run HR through an outside firm (in the leaked meeting audio, he mentions this firm multiple times), so he's probably referring to them rather than Colton.

It's a bit of a parody, but it is indeed a real website that has caught several would-be murderers
