TikTok has reached a settlement in a closely-watched lawsuit over social media addiction, narrowly avoiding a trial that's scheduled to begin jury selection Tuesday. Terms of the deal, which was reported by The New York Times, weren't disclosed.
TikTok's settlement comes about one week after Snap reached a settlement in the same case. The trial is expected to move forward in Los Angeles with Meta and YouTube as the only defendants.

Will's test PC is running an AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D processor and an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card, so it's just about the best hardware you can reasonably expect in the current PC gaming landscape. What we're looking for isn't necessarily high frame rates but smoothness. So what we don't want to see is big spikes in the frame rendering time, which normally oscillate between 5 and 12 milliseconds. And most of the standard campaign gameplay doesn't really have any of it, though some of the showpiece scripted sections (such as the beach landing) can hit it hard with effects like smoke.
Some Battlefield veterans might be a lot more concerned with multiplayer performance, where W
