    One sign you’re living in a simulation is looking like a PS1 character.

    Le Vertige is directed by Quentin Dupieux (FKA: Mr. Oizo), and it follows Jacques, a low-polygon model of a man convinced that nothing is real and that all of humanity is living in a simulation. It looks like a surreal blast, but sadly, there’s no US release date yet.

    Meta gives Oversight Board $13 million to keep it afloat through 2028.

    After reducing funding for the board earlier this year and reportedly planning additional cuts in 2027 and 2028, Platformer reports that Meta has committed $13 million in “top-up” money. That will keep the board operating through 2028, but doesn’t necessarily change plans to cut it off after that.
