So far, the problem withSuits LA is that it doesnt really seem like a spinoff of Suits, the legal dramedy that became a streaming sensation in 2023. Perhaps thats why the show is going to get Litt up when Rich Hoffman returns as Louis Litt, a character he portrayed across all nine seasons of Suits.Deadline was the first to report about Hoffmans Suits comeback, and this will mark his first time back in the role since 2019. In that year, Hoffman appeared in an episode of Suits first spinoff, Pearson, in addition to the final season of the flagship series.Recommended VideosWhile Hoffman is only set to reprise his prickly and yet oddly endearing character for a single episode this season, Deadline indicates that there will be the potential for the actor to appear in more episodes in Suits LA season 2. However, the caveat is that Suits LA has yet to be renewed, and theres no guarantee that it will be.Please enable Javascript to view this contentAnother unfortunate twist about Hoffmans return is that he wont be appearing alongside his former co-star, Gabriel Macht. Suits LA has Macht lined up for three episodes this season as his iconic character Harvey Spector. Any on-screen reunion between Hoffman and Machets frenemies will have to wait until further down the line.Thus far, Suits LA seems like its having an identity crisis by shifting between the dark backstory of its leading character, Ted Black (Stephen Amell), while offering some more lighthearted stories in the present. Theending of the Suits LA series premiere may have set the tone for Teds personal journey, but the jury is still out on whether Suits fans will embrace his show like they did the original.Editors Recommendations

Order in the court Google tells Trumps DOJ that forcing a Chrome sale would harm national security Google tries an old argument with a new Justice Department. Ryan Whitwam Mar 5, 2025 1:58 pm | 22 Credit: Getty Images | Josh Edelson Credit: Getty Images | Josh Edelson Story textSizeSmallStandardLargeWidth *StandardWideLinksStandardOrange* Subscribers only Learn moreGoogle is no stranger to antitrust scrutiny, but the walls may be closing in. As the next phase of Google's search trial nears, the company's lawyers have reportedly met with representatives from the US Department of Justice in hopes of heading off a breakup. Google is reportedly pushing the argument that forcing it to spin off parts of the business and limit certain investments would constitute a national security threat.Google's antitrust situation got much worse this past August when it lost the long-running case targeting its search business. With Google branded yet again as a monopolist, the DOJ asked for stiff penalties, seeking to have US District Judge Amit Mehta force Google to sell its popular Chrome browser and end payments for search engine placement with other firms.According to Bloomberg, Google met with the DOJ team last week to make the case for a lighter regulatory touch. Specifically, Google has stepped up its claims that forcing it to spin-off Chrome and limit AI investments could harm US national security, as well as security at the user level."We routinely meet with regulators, including with the DOJ, to discuss this case," says Google's Peter Schottenfels. "As weve publicly said, were concerned the current proposals would harm the American economy and national security."Google refused to provide specifics about how its control of search supports national security. However, it has previously suggested that Android and Chrome would be less secure because Google invests in updates that may not happen as frequently without Google backing.It's not hard to see how splitting up a company that is so foundational to the Internet could have unintended consequences. The sheer scale of Google brings with it some synergies, allowing it to create an interconnected security apparatus across all its productsincluding Chrome. That said, companies don't need to be sprawling Internet behemoths to have functional security. Mozilla's track record with Firefox is no worse than megacorporations like Google.The government's 2024 request also sought to have Google's investment in AI firms curtailed even though this isn't directly related to search. If, like Google, you believe leadership in AI is important to the future of the world, limiting its investments could also affect national security. But in November, Mehta suggested he was open to considering AI remedies because the recent emergence of AI products that are intended to mimic the functionality of search engines is rapidly shifting the search market.This perspective could be more likely to find supporters in the newly AI-obsessed US government with a rapidly changing Department of Justice. However, the DOJ has thus far opposed allowing AI firm Anthropic to participate in the case after it recently tried to intervene. Anthropic has received $3 billion worth of investments from Google, including $1 billion in January.New year, new Justice DepartmentGoogle naturally opposed the government's early remedy proposal, but this happened in November, months before the incoming Trump administration began remaking the DOJ. Since taking office, the new administration has routinely criticized the harsh treatment of US tech giants, taking aim at European Union laws like the Digital Markets Act, which tries to ensure user privacy and competition among so-called "gatekeeper" tech companies like Google.We may get a better idea of how the DOJ wants to proceed later this week when both sides file their final proposals with Mehta. Google already announced its preferred remedy at the tail end of 2024. It's unlikely Google's final version will be any different, but everything is up in the air for the government.Even if current political realities don't affect the DOJ's approach, the department's staffing changes could. Many of the people handling Google's case today are different than they were just a few months ago, so arguments that fell on deaf ears in 2024 could move the needle. Perhaps emphasizing the national security angle will resonate with the newly restaffed DOJ.After both sides have had their say, it will be up to the judge to eventually rule on how Google must adapt its business. This remedy phase should get fully underway in April.Ryan WhitwamSenior Technology ReporterRyan WhitwamSenior Technology Reporter Ryan Whitwam is a senior technology reporter at Ars Technica, covering the ways Google, AI, and mobile technology continue to change the world.

it's winking at me Volkswagen gets the message: Cheap, stylish EVs coming from 2026 VW is preparing new front-wheel-drive EVs, the ID. 2all and ID. EVERY1. Jonathan M.

Credit: Volkswagen Story textSizeSmallStandardLargeWidth *StandardWideLinksStandardOrange* Subscribers only Learn moreA surprise find in my inbox this morning: news from Volkswagen about a pair of new electric vehicles it has in the works. Even better, they're both small and affordable, bucking the supersized, overpriced trend of the past few years. But before we get too excited, there's currently no guarantee either will go on sale in North America.Next year sees the European debut of the ID. 2all, a small electric hatchback that VW wants to sell for less than 25,000 euros ($26,671). But the ID. 2all isn't really news: VW showed off the concept, as well as a GTI version, back in September 2023.What is new is the ID. EVERY1, an all-electric entry-level car that, if the concept is anything to go by, is high on style and charm. It does not have a retro shape like a Mini or Fiat 500VW could easily have succumbed to a retread of the Giugiaro-styled Golf from 1976 but opted for something new instead. The design language involves three pillars: stability, likability, and surprise elements, or "secret sauce," according to VW's description. The ID. EVERY1 is the antithesis of the giant SUVs and trucks that have come out of Detroit these past few years. "The widely flared wheelarches over the large 19-inch wheels and the athletic and clearly designed surfaces of the silhouette ensure stability," said VW head of design Andreas Mindt, confirming the inability of modern designers to stay away from huge wheels."The slightly cheeky smile at the front is a particularly likable feature. A secret sauce element is the roof drawn in the middle, usually seen on sports cars. All these design elements lend the ID. EVERY1 a charismatic identity with which people can identify," Mindt said.It really is a small carat 152.8 inches (3,880 mm) long, it's much shorter than the smallest car VW sells here in the US, the Golf GTI, which is a still-diminutive 168.8 inches (4,288 mm) in length. Like the slightly bigger ID. 2allwhich is still much shorter than a Golf), the ID. EVERY1 will use a new front-wheel drive version of VW's modular MEB platform. (Initially introduced for rear- or all-wheel-drive EVs, MEB underpins cars like the ID.4 crossover and ID. Buzz bus.)The interior is more Polo-sized than Up (which will make little sense to most American readers, since neither comes to North America), with plenty of recycled materials like PET and a removable center console, similar to the Buzz. VW says it listened to its customers when it designed this car. I hope that means there won't be a capacitive steering wheel.

EVERY1 represents the last piece of the puzzle on our way to the widest model selection in the volume segment," said VW Group board member and VW CEO Thomas Schfer. "We will then offer every customer the right car with the right drive systemincluding affordable, all-electric entry-level mobility. Our goal is to be the worlds technologically leading high-volume manufacturer by 2030."With a starting price of less than 20,000 euros ($21,338) when it goes on sale in 2027, the company is evidently serious about affordability. Just don't expect too much in terms of technical specs; the outputs here reflect the price point. There's a newly developed 94 hp (70 kW) motor, and while VW isn't giving a battery capacity for the concept, it says it has a range of "at least 155 miles" (250 km), although that's almost certainly with the more generous European WLTP test in mind.Which brings me to the elephant in the room: Nothing in the press materials VW sent us make any indication that the ID. EVERY1 will be imported to North America, and the brand is previously on record as saying that the ID. 2all isn't coming here, either.Margins on small EVs aren't nearly as good as more expensive ones, and both small cars and EVs remain niche choices for American car buyers, which so far has made OEMs reticent to import their smallest EVs, like that very cool Honda e. And that's without the uncertainty of a president who looks ready to start more trade wars. We asked the automaker if there was a chance the ID. EVERY1 would come to the US, but it said that was "highly unlikely."That's not a definite no, but it's also pretty far from even a "maybe," so don't plan on being able to place an order for an ID. EVERY1 in 2027 at a US VW dealership. But with two years between now and then, that's plenty of time for people to try to change VW's mind. If you do drop them a note, you may as well tell them we need that electric ID. GTI, too.Jonathan M. GitlinAutomotive EditorJonathan M.

Most of the hit buildings remained structurally intact.The MK-82 is an unguided general-purpose bomb, meaning it can be used for a wide variety of attack missions.

Dmitry Medvedev says Moscow's primary objective now is "inflicting maximum damage" on Ukraine.The Trump administration paused US military aid to Kyiv this week.There are Western fears that the suspension could hinder Ukraine's vital fighting capabilities.Russia's former president, Dmitry Medvedev, said the Kremlin should press the attack on the battlefield as the US suspends arms supplies to Ukraine."Inflicting maximum damage to the enemy on the ground remains our primary objective today," Medvedev wrote in a social media post on Wednesday.Medvedev noted that President Donald Trump had on Monday paused American aid.However, he said Ukraine's disadvantage from the US aid pause would exist only for a limited time window."As soon as the deal is concluded, American arms supplies will likely resume (especially since Europe has already increased them)," Medvedev wrote."Russia is advancing," he added. "The enemy resists and is not yet defeated."Medvedev, who was Russia's president from 2008 to 2012 and then its prime minister for eight years after, still holds a key position in the Kremlin's top military decision-making body.He's now the deputy chairman of the Security Council, ranking behind only Russian leader Vladimir Putin.The former president is no stranger to hawkish rhetoric toward Ukraine and the US, previously threatening nuclear attacks on Western cities if NATO deployed soldiers in Ukraine. He's also called for a "maximum reward" bounty on such troops.His new post comes asRussia's ballistic missile attacks are rarer than its drone assaults and typically come every few weeks. This time, it launched a salvo on the same evening as Trump's address to Congress.In a report on the military's Tuesday operations, the Russian Defense Ministry posted on Telegram that it had attacked Ukrainian airfields, an oil depot, drone production workshops, and other military assets in 150 districts.It's still unclear how Ukraine's warfighting capabilities might be affected by a loss of continued US support. But there are fears in Kyiv that the move will scupper the effective use of critical American weapons, such as Patriot air defense systems and HIMARS long-range artillery."My guess is if US aid does not restart, then Ukrainians could hold out two to four months," Mark Cancian, a senior advisor on defense and security at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, previously told Business Insider.The CIA's director, John Ratcliffe, and Trump's national security advisor, Mike Waltz, both said that the US had also rolled back the amount of intelligence it shares with Ukraine.Analysts from the Institute for the Study of War wrote on Wednesday that losing US intel would hurt Kyiv's ability to find and hit Russian ammo depots and air defense systems, giving Moscow more options to strike Ukraine and allowing its pilots to get closer to drop bombs.The move would also hurt Ukraine's chances of detecting incoming drone attacks so it can warn civilians and troops, they added."Russian forces exploited the previous suspension of US military aid in early 2024, including by trying to seize Kharkiv City in May 2024 before US military aid resumed flowing to Ukrainian forces on the frontline," the analysts wrote.US military aid to Ukraine was paused for several months last year amid resistance from congressional Republicans.

Franchissement Urbain Public Space Crossing / Marc MimramSave this picture!

Between the two stations of Pleyel and Saint-Denis Stade de France, the Franchissement Urbain Pleyel provides an opportunity to create a public space at the heart of the city that, beyond its functional link, becomes a place of habitation, transit, but also a place of relaxation, residence, development of urban pleasures, and attention to the magnificent panorama that the railway river opens up to the horizon. The aim was to transform this functional link into a true place, an urban space that is appropriable, livable, and generous, making the most of the site's unique conditions without denying them, to create urban components, places of enjoyment that establish the bridge as a real piece of city infrastructure, a new focal point for the Landy Pleyel neighborhood.Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!The hosting structures of the possible programs are inseparable from the crossings. They enhance the programs by making the structure livable, readable at all scalesclose in the pedestrian path and distant in the city's skyline. The three superstructures shape the urban landscape, forming rocks and spider-like compositions that develop in the sky of Saint-Denis, creating moments along the pedestrian journey. Along the paths, the bridge offers a variety of urban pleasures that are accessible and enjoyable for both cyclists and pedestrians. To the west, as you exit the Pleyel station, the superstructure continues on the small span of the independent crossing. It forms a rock-like shape that extends the topography of the ground, allowing users to appropriate the space by sitting or relaxing to the south, lying in the sun, or creating a place of conviviality. This inhabitable topography ensures the rigidity of the structure and the crossing of the small span.Save this picture!On the large crossing along the bridge, the structure consists of a system of multiple arches supporting the artwork installation by Nadine Schtz. The central square is naturally organized topographically thanks to the two pedestrian routes, north and south, that it links. The steps naturally integrate into this topography, within which are stairways and a ramp accessible to people with reduced mobility. This forms a central sequence in the design, a space for both use and representation, a balcony-like square, ideally oriented towards the south, protecting pedestrians from the traffic to the north. This square is accessible and welcoming to all, both day and night.Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!The garden structure of the station to the east consists of multiple arches that shape a set of open lines in the sky, creating a soft, curved, and light form open to the sky. It is a plant-based system, forming a vegetal veil from the structure to the ground, and from the ground to the structure. It is, therefore, a welcoming structure for the plant world, creating a specific, random, and living sequence within the crossing system. The stairs and escalators will lead to the platforms, and the station becomes airborne, embedded within the bridge's structure, allowing users to access Pleyel station directly from the deck level.Save this picture!Save this picture!The project organizes multiple, varied, and unique sequences that users can appropriate, creating a truly inhabited space within the transforming city. The urban and architectural proposal of our project is based on two hypotheses: that of a rational and free structure supporting an adaptable program, and that of a major public space in the city offered to multiple paths and the pleasures of the place. The reasoned static and constructive unity is complemented by the diversity of possible paths, appropriable places, moments, and crossed sequences.Save this picture!Project gallerySee allShow lessProject locationAddress:Saint-Denis, FranceLocation to be used only as a reference.
