I grew up in France. Now living in Las Vegas.
A software engineer at heart, I co-founded LinkedIn and was lucky enough to be able to "retire" early. I now dedicate my time to free and open source projects (my way of giving back).

After more than 135h of playtime, seeing all 5 different major endings, I still have a hard time putting down Cyberpunk 2077. It is now definitely in my top 5 games of all time, if not my top 3.
Played on PS5Pro in quality mode (30fps).

People are NOT understanding what empty cargo ships from China means.
It means no work for dock workers. No work for truck drivers, no work for retailers, fewer dollars circulating. The cascade effect is just mind boggling.
