NVIDIA's GeForce Now with RTX 5080 GPUs is a cloud gaming revelation

engadget.com Unknown 2025-10-08 11:00:00

If you had told me five years ago that playing PC games over the cloud would soon look indistinguishable from using a powerful rig, I would have called you a fool. But after diving into NVIDIA's new RTX 5080-powered GeForce Now servers for several hours, I think we've reached a major milestone for cloud streaming. From a New Jersey server almost a thousand miles away from my Atlanta-area home, I was able to play Cyberpunk 2077 in 4K at 170 fps (with NVIDIA's DLSS 4 frame generation) and Overwatc

Channing Tatum has had a varied career. He has played spies, superheroes, and soft-hearted men (he also dances really well).

Speaking to Vanity Fair, Tatum said he had been approached about a possible film adaptation of the childhood classic by Guillermo del Toro.

California’s High-Speed Rail Fiasco Keeps Getting Worse

gizmodo.com Benton Graham 2025-10-08 11:35:07

Seventeen years ago, Californians bet on a grand vision of the future. They narrowly approved a $10 billion bond issue to build a high-speed rail line that would zip between San Francisco and Los Angeles in under three hours. This technological marvel would slash emissions, revitalize the state’s Central Valley, and, with some financial help from the feds and private sector, provide the fast, efficient, and convenient travel Asia and Europe have long enjoyed.
