The Senate can change their rules at any time, they just need 60 votes or to invoke the "nuclear option" and pass with 50. Democrats have been reluctant to do so because it makes changing rules easier in the future and for some reason they don't think the party with the majority should be able to pass things with just a majority.

The E-cores (on existing Intel chips) aren't going to help with gaming ever, there's just too much latency communicating between them and the P-cores. That said, performance is similar to AMD with Raptor Lake often slightly edging out Zen 4, albeit at higher power usage, but this can vary game to game. Until Cities Skylines releases and we have third party benchmarks, it's hard to say which will be better, but they should be close either way. Raptor Lake refresh is also about to release which will probably add another 5-10% single threaded and a bit more multithreaded performance.
I don't know where you got the idea that they aren't detected correctly. Intel and Microsoft worked together on the thread director for Windows 11. There were some teething issues in some games and apps early on but it's been 3 years and most of the biggest issues were fixed in the first few months. They even work decently well on Windows 10 (I have a 12600k on 10). You can also disable them if you run into any issues.
Republicans were objecting to a temporary replacement, but if they refuse to give someone a committee seat due to vacancy, Democrats will just change the rule to simple majority. Feinstein could have ended this stalemate at any time by retiring, but the ghouls around her didn't want to surrender their power.
Wish the article was clearer on amount of fentanyl. First sentence indicated 100lbs of packaged fentanyl pills. That could be a relatively small amount if it's just being used as a filler. Later sentence indicates charges for over 100lbs of fentanyl, but this is probably similar to charging for full weight of end product like they do with edibles to increase the charges.
