The Commission’s multibilllion-euro fine falls short of the €4.34 billion fine the EU executive slapped on Google in 2018 over abuse of dominance related to Android mobile devices, but is higher than the €2.42 billion fine the firm faced for favoring its own comparison-shopping service in 2017.

The Google fine, in particular, risks drawing the ire of U.S. President Donald Trump, who has ramped up pressure on the EU after striking a lopsided trade deal in July. Trump threatened to impose severe tariffs on countries that implement “discriminatory” regulations or taxes that target U.S. tech firms.

The console’s first-party games are svelte, but third-party games like Street Fighter 6 Years 1-2 Fighters Edition (50.8GB) or Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition (60.2GB) eat up their …

The state Appellate Division wisely ruled that the half-billion-dollar fine levied on President Trump for allegedly “overvaluing” his properties such as 40 Wall Street was unconstitutionally “excessive.” It ought to be the last word on the matter — but it might not be. The decision was a rebuke to state Attorney General Letitia James, who brought the malicious and politically motivated “fraud” case against …

While Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson did not practice on Thursday, he is still OK. Baltimore head coach John Harbaugh told reporters that Jackson was held out of practice after his foot was stepped on during Wednesday’s practice.
