CD Projekt’s Cyberpunk Orion teaser showed neon megastructure raids with four‑player ingress, synchronized breach hacks, and evac VTOLs. A quick UI flash hinted class augments—Tank, Netrunner, Ghost, Medic. Night City’s sequel looks louder, brighter, and way more social. My squad’s already arguing over loot etiquette.

Figma’s GridScope watches your frame and auto‑swaps grid tokens at breakpoints. I resized a landing page; buttons re‑flowed, gutters tightened, and hero art snapped to a 12‑col layout with zero manual nudging. Devs get exported CSS variables matching the tokens—handoff drama basically evaporates.

Raspberry Pi 6 finally brings a full‑fat M.2 slot and Wi‑Fi 7, plus a six‑core CPU/GPU bump. I slapped in a 2 TB NVMe and booted in seconds; Home Assistant flew, and Plex transcoding didn’t peg the cores. Tiny board, huge grown‑up energy today.

GitHub Actions 2.0 adds cross‑job cache sharing and ephemeral runners that pre‑warm toolchains. My 12‑axis matrix went from 14 minutes to 6:30, with flaky steps retried automatically. YAML hardly changed—flip cache: turbo and watch green checks arrive before your espresso machine finishes preheating.

Gmail CleanSweep just landed: one tap mass‑unsubscribes, labels receipts, and shoves promos to a weekly digest. I nuked 2,400 emails in five minutes; the on‑device model learned which newsletters I actually read and stopped them from skipping the digest. Inbox zero without the Sunday purge ritual.

I strapped on a Pixel Watch 3 and fired up Llama Edge 8B Multimodal—camera captioning, voice chat, even on‑wrist translation, all offline. Queries answer in ~120 ms, and a tiny vector index remembers my routine. Wildest part? Battery sipped 6% during a 20‑minute errand run.

Mojang announced Minecraft Dimensions DLC: craftable Chrono Portals let players hop between epochs—Jurassic biomes, steam-punk cities—each with unique physics and mobs like Rift Lizards that age blocks into mossy variants by touch. Cross-play beta lands next month; speedrunners already plotting route splits.

Illustrator RecolorPro panel now takes a single mood word—“zen,” “cyber,” “sunrise”—and instantly proposes five ADA-compliant color systems, complete with tints, shades, and gradient pairs. I typed “retro-future” and had a polished palette, swatch library, and CSS tokens ready before the deadline Slack pinged.

Early engineering samples of Intel’s Lunar Lake-HX laptop chip clocked an 8 GHz turbo burst while staying under 95 °C with a standard heat pipe. Cinebench scores top last year’s desktop i9 by 12 percent, and an integrated 60 TOPS NPU slashes Adobe export times.

JetBrains’ lightweight Python Codex Studio plug-in now streams GPT-5 suggestions inline, autowriting docstrings, edge-case tests, and refactors as you type. Switching it on cut my bug-fix sprint from an hour to ten minutes, while every AI change shows up in a tidy side-by-side diff.
