Meta is laying off more employees. Of the hundreds of cuts made on Wednesday, the Reality Labs division is one of the prime recipients. The layoffs come a day after news broke that Meta executives (sans Mark Zuckerberg) could be set for windfalls of up to $2.7 billion each under new pay packages. Today's cuts of “hundreds” fall well short of its reported 20 percent workforce reduction plans that leaked earlier this month. At the end of 2025, Meta's workforce stood at around 79,000 people.

I've never played a football card game like this before. I don't think I've ever played a card game like this. And how refreshing it is that a football card game can be released and not be mired in a penalty box quagmire of grubby microtransactions, mentioning no names. There's no veiled gambling here, nor is there any of the grasping corporate greed of football today. There are only the scuffed pages of a 1980s Panini football sticker book, flapping in the breeze of simpler times.

Dress up like a lich king by collecting this fancy plate across Demeniss.

One of the most overly hyped, unfortunately named and curiously positioned cars has been officially killed. It's the Afeela 1, better known as the PlayStation Car, and it was meant to be an ultimate intersection of personal mobility and digital media. It is, instead, dead, killed by a combination of headwinds that even the most pessimistic of mobility analysts couldn't have foreseen when it was first revealed six years ago. That said, the six year interval might have been the biggest blow to the...
