Cyberpunk 2077 is finally coming to Mac computers. The first-person open world adventure was first released back in 2020, so Apple fans have been waiting nearly half a decade for this release. Developer CD Projekt RED hasnt issued a launch date yet, but says the game will be available early next year. This isnt the base game. Mac owners are getting Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition, which features all pre-existing DLC and patches. This includes the massive Phantom Liberty expansion, which brings Idris Elba into the mix. The expansion was first released last year for consoles and PC. The developer says this port takes full advantage of Apple Silicon and the advanced technologies of Metal. Itll boast all kinds of modern bells and whistles, like path tracing, frame generation and built-in spatial audio. As indicated, this port is only for Apple Silicon Macs, but CD Projekt RED hasnt announced if there would be any barriers beyond that. We reached out to the developer to ask if the game will run on every chip, from the M1 to the recently-announced M4 Max. Well update this post when we hear something. Theres also a cool policy in place for pre-existing players. If you own the game on PC via Steam, the purchase will carry over to Mac.

As someone allergic to a big sect of food (hey gluten free eaters!), I know how important accurate allergy markers are on a menu. Yet, a new criminal complaint alleges that a former Disney World employee intentionally altered a menu's allergy information to state foods didn't contain peanuts that, in fact, did, 404 Media and Court Watch reported in collaboration. The complaint alleges that Michael Scheuer was fired by Disney and then used still viable passwords to access a third-party created proprietary menu creation and inventory system. Over the course of his misdoings, he allegedly changed the allergy information along with adding profanity, altering prices and changing the font to Wingdings. Those wingdings were what initially tipped off employees. All menus in the database were deemed unusable and the application went offline for one to two weeks to fix the issues. Disney changed the passwords, but then Scheuer allegedly broke into multiple of the third-party company's FTPs, to change the allergy markers and altered QR codes from directing to a menu to a boycott Israel website. He also tried to break into Disney employees' accounts nearly 8,000 times. Disney claims that the altered menus were identified before being shipped out to restaurants. This case is unrelated to a doctor who died of an allergic reaction after eating at a Disney Springs restaurant last year. Notably, Disney tried to get a lawsuit filed by the doctor's husband thrown out in August, alleging that he had agreed to settle lawsuits out of court through arbitration. The reason? He had signed a terms of service for a one-month Disney+ trial in 2019 and again when making an account to buy park tickets.

The Nothing Phone (2a) Plus Community Edition is Nothings latest smartphone, using designs submitted by the community and it glows in the dark. Depending on your location, you can register for a chance to buy the device starting today, but that doesnt guarantee a purchase. Only 1,000 of them will be available, and they wont be sold in North America, Taiwan and Korea. Nothing first called for the community to design a product back in March. The contest had four stages: creating a new look, crafting wallpapers, designing a new package and then developing a marketing campaign. People would then submit their ideas and the winners chosen later. These entries later went into the final design as seen now. Those who participated in the community event are given priority to register for a Phone (2a) Plus Community Edition, but it will still be sold on a first-come-first-served basis. You can find out how to get one in this post. Interestingly, those in Malaysia (like me), Singapore, Thailand and the Philippines dont have to register to potentially purchase one. They can buy one through Nothings official partners, although they have to be fast as there are only 25 devices per country. Fans of Nothings phones in Japan can also register for the phone, but the ones theyll get are based on the older Nothing Phone (2a). Besides buying the phone online, fans in London and Delhi can visit a physical store for one. The Nothing Store in Soho will stock 50 of them starting November 16. However, those in Delhi have to stay tuned for the location, and the phone will become available on November 23. The Nothing Phone (2a) Plus Community Edition will launch on November 12 and sell for 399, around $430. It comes with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage space.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/mobile/smartphones/nothings-first-community-designed-smartphone-glows-in-the-dark-152002042.html?src=rss
