If your Cyberpunk 2077 save file becomes too big, it might get corrupted

I can barely go anywhere on the internet without seeing yet another wild, hilarious, or downright odd bug from Cyberpunk 2077. It's a buggy game, and developer CD Projekt Red has already released two hotfixes to try and shore up some of the problems. One issue that's starting to pop up, though, isn't funny at all: some players are reporting that their Cyberpunk 2077 save files are becoming corrupted if they exceed a certain file size (via Eurogamer).

If your Cyberpunk 2077 save is corrupted, you'll apparently see this prompt when you try and load up the game: "saved data is damaged and cannot be loaded." Here's what it looks like:

New trailers: Bridgerton, Palmer, and more

Hi, I'm Jay! I'm subbing in for your usual trailers guide Kim Lyons while she takes a well-deserved holiday break. I've really been looking forward to writing this post. Trailers are fun! They're like bite-sized movies.

Unfortunately, there weren't a ton of trailers to choose from this week. I suppose studios don't want to launch big trailers for upcoming blockbusters shortly before everyone takes off for the holidays. But there were still a few good ones to watch, including a trailer for a series launching on Netflix later this week. Enjoy.

Bridgerton

Bridgerton is Shona Rhimes' upcoming British period drama for Netflix, the first series resulting from her mega-deal with Netflix. It looks like it should hit a lot of the expected high...

Frontline essential workers and the elderly next in line for COVID-19 vaccinations in US

Frontline essential workers and people 75 years of age and older in the United States should get COVID-19 vaccines in the next wave of immunizations, an independent committee at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommended. That group includes about 49 million people.

After those groups are vaccinated, the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) said doses should go to people between 65 and 74 years old, people between 16 and 65 years old with underlying health conditions, and other essential workers not in groups considered frontline.

Vaccines will be in limited supply through at least the next few months. The CDC expects that there should be doses available to vaccinate 20 million people in December, 30...

Fall Guys developer Mediatonic has added a skin based on the hugely-popular streamer Tyler "Ninja" Blevins to the game. The skin's arrival follows a two-week charity bidding war in August to have a custom skin added to the game. Blevins, G2 Esports, Aim Lab, and Jimmy "MrBeast" Donaldson pledged a combined $1 million to Special Effect, which helps people with physical disabilities find ways to play video games.

Here's a couple photos the Ninja skin in-game, courtesy of the Fall Guys Twitter account. It looks kind of like a jelly bean-sized version of the Ninja skin that was added to Fortnite in January.

Stanford algorithm decided to vaccinate only seven of its frontline COVID-19 workers, out of 5,000 doses

An algorithm determining which Stanford Medicine employees would receive its 5,000 initial doses of the COVID-19 vaccine included just seven medical residents / fellows on the list, according to a December 17th letter sent from Stanford Medicine's chief resident council. Stanford Medicine leadership has since apologized and promised to re-evaluate the plan.

"We take complete responsibility for the errors in the execution of our vaccine distribution plan," a Stanford Medicine spokesperson said in a statement to The Verge. "Our intent was to develop an ethical and equitable process for distribution of the vaccine. We apologize to our entire community, including our residents, fellows, and other frontline care providers, who have performed...

Cooking videos were one small savior of 2020

Posted: 20 Dec 2020 08:00 AM PST

Early one morning, a week after the pandemic started, chef and food writer J. Kenji López-Alt strapped a GoPro to his head and filmed himself making breakfast. In the video, you can see López-Alt rummaging through his fridge, slicing and frying bacon, and peeling a bit of egg off a pan to give to his excited dog. There's no recipe beneath the video, no voice-over instructions detailing what we're seeing — it's just a guy in a kitchen making breakfast.

Videos like these became both much-needed entertainment and valuable educational resources early in the pandemic, as a world of people realized they would be stuck at home indefinitely with their own (not necessarily stunning) cooking, and a little extra time to put into it. Food and drink...

Animal Crossing gave me structure in a shapeless year

I broke ground on my Animal Crossing: New Horizons island, Honkland, just three days before the UK's Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced that the country was going into lockdown. I'd pitched up my tent, and I was just about to deliver a pile of materials to Timmy Nook to help him build the island's general store.

I was enjoying my first Animal Crossing, but I hadn't quite hit that point of "getting it" just yet. The menus were slow to navigate, and I wasn't really sure what I was working toward. Mining the most material out of each of my island rocks involved a convoluted process of digging two holes and then hitting them repeatedly over the course of several seconds. Picking fruit involved first shaking a tree and then picking up...

This was a good year to listen to ambient music, whatever that is

In the early days of despair, I looked at Spotify and decided that everything sounded bad. All songs were boring, and I was sick of everything. What that really meant was I was sick of myself. But by the summer, I'd found the solve: ambient music. The best music I heard this year was barely music at all.

The notion of "ambient music" is pretentious, sure, but the concept is simple. If most music is centered around some alchemy of melody and rhythm, ambient music eschews that for whatever else: tones, moods, atmosphere.

I've listened to Peel by Nairobi-based artist KMRU roughly once a day since I first heard it in July. Like most music in the genre, the album is concerned with timbre and texture — a lot of shapeless, ambiguous noise that...

The best movies of 2020

Posted: 20 Dec 2020 06:00 AM PST

We didn't go to the movies much this year, but the movies still came to us. While the convenience of home viewing can't match the experience of watching a spectacle in the dark with others, the other joy of movies — talking about them — is easier than ever, thanks to our connected world. And 2020's pandemic sidelined a lot of big blockbusters, leaving smaller, more interesting movies to take center stage. As silver linings go, this one isn't that bad.

Here, in no particular order, are ten incredible movies from a year where movies still rallied to offer experiences that were provocative, compelling, and fun.

The Assistant

One of the best films made in response to the crimes of Harvey Weinstein and the subsequent #MeToo movement, The...
