man i just wanna play thief
unfortunately my last save is running after a ghost in a fort full of zombies, situation less than ideal
update: stabbed a zombie in the back on the way down, ran past it while escaping and woke it up. friendly hammer fanatic came to help me, sandwiched me against the zombie in a hallway, and bludgeoned me to death
this feels honestly entirely in character for hammerites
okay this is my pledge i'm gonna *finally* get through the original thief despite how stressful i find the zombies in the second level
thief’s first mission is an absolute trip, like just fifty giant rooms with a shelf or some barrels, because that was how level designers rolled in the ‘90s

Epic v. Apple alert: Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers is now hearing Apple’s argument to stay the requirement that it end anti-steering rules.
I’m on the Zoom call, where Judge YGL has just indicated she’s initially skeptical of granting the stay, but Apple lawyer Mark Perry is making an argument otherwise. (Apparently too quickly, because she just asked him to slow down for the court reporter.)
Apple’s argument is basically that Epic doesn’t have standing to demand it end anti-steering policies. YGL says she’s not sure why Epic would have suddenly lost standing after the fact, since it had it during the case.

Got a big Epic v. Apple update! Ruling from the judge.
TL;DR on the Epic v. Apple ruling: Apple can’t stop developers from routing people outside the in-app purchasing ecosystem. But Epic has to pay Apple for breaking its rules. Apple Inc. and its officers, agents, servants, employees, anOn the counterclaim, in favor of Apple on the counterclaim f
For context, Apple and Epic can (and probably will) appeal the parts of the ruling they don’t like. Apple will probably ask for the in-app purchasing rule changes to be delayed while the case moves up the court system.

Final day of Epic v. Apple starts in 10, with my colleague @mslopatto in the courtroom! Apple seems like it’s in a relatively strong place fighting sideloading, but last week ended with some tough payment questions for Tim Cook:

theverge.com/2021/5/21/2244…

Court’s testing audio lines now, and we’re about to begin. Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers said last week that she was interested in talking about remedies (i.e. what changes Apple could actually make if it is violating antitrust law in some way.)
Testimony ended Friday, and today we’re scheduled to have 3 hours of back-and-forth where both parties will answer questions from Judge Rogers, in lieu of extended closing arguments.

Day 14 of Epic (but not a fortnight, because weekends) starts in five minutes. It’s all Apple expert witnesses: Dominique Hanssens, James Malackowski, and Aviel Rubin. Yesterday below:
To be perfectly blunt Epic’s expert witness portion was a little slow, but if we make it through today we get Tim Cook tomorrow.
Epic’s lawyer says their side might call some rebuttal witnesses in response to Apple’s testimony today, but it’s up in the air. They may also call a new witness to respond to “testimony that has only just come up."
