The game, which is called Roadflip and was made by Shopify software engineer Niko Draca, allows you to drive the Roadster up the vertical ramp, and then flip around as many times as you want before using the cold-gas thrusters to land safely on the ground — which, as it turns out, is harder than it sounds! The more flips you do, the higher your score. “Think Tony Hawk... but with a Roadster,” Draca said in an email. I have yet to land without exploding.

Another senator wants Meta to reverse its business term revisions.

Adam Schiff joins Sen. Marsha Blackburn in expressing concern, urging Meta to “compensate creators and publishers for their work” after the company’s updated terms seemingly gave itself permission to train its AI on news sites. Those changes have since been tweaked and pushed back until November 20th, but Schiff says “a delay isn’t enough.” [Media: https://www.threads.com/@senadamschiff/post/De-RhU5CdEJ?xmt=AQG0STrI9r1E22uEfwj4HqVl9IddldeCKVvudtKzXk8Bh0jwZaFqfp08M6vZV12q5COSI8wf&slof=1]
