Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty Easter egg lets you find Idris Elba's spy before the expansion starts

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support

Cyberpunk 2077 players have been able to find Idris Elba's character out in the world before his questline even begins.

Minor spoilers follow for Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty.

Early on in Phantom Liberty, we learn that Solomon Reed, Elba's superspy character, has spent the last seven years as a sleeper agent for the New United States of America. Before being reactivated as part of the expansion's opening, Reed claims to have been working deep undercover as a bouncer at one of Night City's infamous nightclubs. 

Showing impressive attention to detail, developer CD Projekt Red has made it possible for players to encounter Reed in his undercover guise before the events of Phantom Liberty even begin (via IGN). Those wanting to see Reed's former life can travel to the Electric Orgasam club, just to the northwest of Corpo Plaza. Wait until nightfall, and you'll find Reed in his undercover alias, working as a bouncer on the door.

Cyberpunk 2077 is full of juicy little details like this one that helps to flesh out the game world. This nod to Solomon Reed's cover identity is hardly the first. 

After the release of the well-received Cyberpunk 2077 anime, Cyberpunk Edgerunners, CD Projekt Red added a short questline to the game to reflect the events of the series' tearjerking finale. Players can find a recording of the anime's opening scene, which starts a mission chain. Talk to the right people, and you'll be able to get your hands on the iconic jacket worn by the series' main character, David Martinez. 

Despite its rocky launch, Cyberpunk 2077 has come into its own in recent times. This is partly due to the launch of Phantom Liberty but also thanks to the release of a free 2.0 update that radically altered the game's progression system, improving the scope for character customization. 

If you've yet to give CD Projekt Red's sci-fi RPG a go, there's never been a better time to dive in and see the game's latest incarnation for yourself.

Microsoft, Google, and Meta have borrowed EV tech for the next big thing in data centers: 1MW watercooled racks

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support Liquid cooling isn't optional anymore, it's the only way to survive AI's thermal onslaught The jump to 400VDC borrows heavily from electric vehicle supply chains and design logic Google’s TPU supercomputers now run at gigawatt scale with 99.999% uptime As demand for artificial intelligence workloads intensifies, the physical infrastructure of data centers is undergoing rapid and radical transformation. The likes of Google, Microsoft, and Meta are now drawing on technologies initially developed for electric vehicles (EVs), particularly 400VDC systems, to address the dual challenges of high-density power delivery and thermal management. The emerging vision is of data center racks capable of delivering up to 1 megawatt of power, paired with liquid cooling systems engineered to manage the resulting heat. Borrowing EV technology for data center evolution The shift to 400VDC power distribution marks a decisive break from legacy sy...

The Apple Watch ban is lifted, on appeal – but the reprieve might only be temporary

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support The Apple Watch ban story has developed quickly over the last week and a bit, and there's now a new twist: the US Court of Appeals is putting a pause on the US sales and import ban while it reviews the case, which means the Apple Watch 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 can go back on sale for the time being. "We are thrilled to return the full Apple Watch lineup to customers in time for the new year," an Apple spokesperson told TechRadar. "We are pleased the US Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit has stayed the exclusion order while it considers our request to stay the order pending our full appeal." The watches in question are now once again available from "select" Apple Stores, and will also be going on sale from the Apple website from 12pm PT / 3pm ET on Thursday, December 28 (that's 8pm in the UK, and early on December 29 in Australia). All Apple Stores should have stock by the weekend. As for how long t...

The Samsung Galaxy Ring could go into production as soon as next month

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support With the dust beginning to settle from the huge Samsung Unpacked 2023 event, we can turn our attention towards what Samsung might have planned next: and a smart ring seems to be in the company's near future. As per a report from South Korean outlet The Elec (via SamMobile ), mass production on a Samsung Galaxy Ring could begin as early as August, with a decision imminent on the schedule for getting the wearable manufactured and out to consumers. A full launch is slated for some point during 2024 though, rather than 2023. The nature of the device means that it'll need to clear several regulatory hurdles before it can go on sale and start tracking various vital statistics. An early 2024 launch would put the Galaxy Ring on a similar schedule to the Samsung Galaxy S24 – and it would therefore make sense to launch both gadgets at the same time, perhaps in January or February if Samsung follows its 2023 routine. The story so far Rumors ar...
