I’d like to briefly address the discussion around the “Cyberpunk VR” mod created by Luke Ross. We have indeed issued a DMCA strike, as it was available as a paid mod (only accessible to Patreon subscribers). This directly violates our Fan Content Guidelines: we never allow monetization of our IP without our direct permission and/or an agreement in place. We were in touch with Luke last week and informed him that he needs to make it free for everyone (with optional donations) or remove it. We are big fans of mods to our games — some of the work out there has been nothing short of amazing, including Luke’s mod for Cyberpunk 2077. We’d be happy to see it return as a free release. However, making a profit from our IP, in any form, always requires permission from @CDPROJEKTRED. You can find our full fan content guidelines here: cdprojektred.com/en/fan-content

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. dedicated his life fighting for equity and justice. He taught us that even in the face of intimidation and discrimination, we must never stop working towards a better future – a lesson that feels especially relevant today. Change has never been easy. It takes persistence and determination, and requires all of us to speak out and stand up for what we believe in. As we honor Dr. King today, let’s draw strength from his example, and do our part to build on his legacy.

Great article on the demise of the consistency and quality of hotel loyalty programs. I've been reevaluating my Hilton Honors and Bonvoy for a while. @CondeNast author, Gary Leff, has shifted his loyalty to @Hyatt! Sounds genius! viewfromthewing.com/he-spent-20000… #Travel

I *need* everyone over 35 to understand that a lot of young voters / first time voters DO NOT understand how important the ACA is or how transformative this law was.

Now this I would buy 🤩 These glasses are dreamt up by Gabriel Newton. But when can we buy this? It's safe to say that once we can, nothing will be the same again.

@ID_AA_Carmack Sounds like a call for a new company....or IP?

The entire point of TV sets is to show beautiful moving imagery, yet the application software that runs on them is almost always lame and terrible. The vendors probably can’t police every random streaming app they support, but they fully control the top level software, so it should be a flawless 4K experience with every image authored in HDR and perfectly pixel centered, all smoothly animating at 120 fps. The GPUs tend to be underpowered, so it would take care and effort to make it happen, but it absolutely could.

This year, Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill gave: Google an $18 billion tax break. Amazon a $16 billion tax break. Microsoft a $12 billion tax break. Facebook an $11 billion tax break. Now, they’re writing checks to Trump for his $300 million ballroom. Gee, I wonder why?

@CristinaIBalan @flchristophe @elonmusk clap

@flchristophe @elonmusk ME? Brainless? That’s why the asshole of Musk hired me twice to save his ass? That’s why my name was engraved on all Tesla’s battery packs starting with the first Alpha? That’s why Musk is to chicken shit to fight me fare and square publicly? Read how his lawyers describe me

A girl is dead bc @elonmusk & Tesla pushed the FSD fantasy. You attack lawyers holding you accountable? After years of lies & cover-ups? You’re not a genius. You’re rotten, a menace. No amount of money will wash the blood off your hands. No tech can fix what’s rotted in you.

Little girl behind me just asked, how much weight does this bridge hold? Her dad replied, hopefully enough for all these people. 👀 😮 🤯 Yeah I hope so too. 😂

In workshops, people often ask me about the difference between empathy and compassion. There's not universal agreement, as it turns out, but this is helpful as a general guide. The active component of compassion makes it an empowering and ultimately uplifting choice.
