๐ฎ Xbox Cloud Gaming is getting a hard cap
Starting in November, Xbox Cloud Gaming will no longer be unlimited. Ultimate subscribers get 15 hours per month, Premium gets 10, and Essential gets 5. Additional hours can be purchased in bundles through the Xbox Store โ pricing hasn't been announced yet โ and unused hours will carry over to the next month.
Unlimited cloud access was introduced across all Game Pass tiers less than a year ago. Microsoft says the change is driven by the rising cost of cloud infrastructure as usage grows, and expects it to affect roughly 4% of subscribers.
At the same time, the company is extending cloud gaming access to users without a Game Pass subscription, who will be able to buy hour bundles and stream games they already own, according to The Verge.

๐ฆท Dyson is turning toothbrushing into a diagnostic procedure
The CameraJet toothbrush puts a 100,000-pixel camera inside your mouth at 28 frames per second. An AI system called Gap Optical Targeting detects gaps between teeth and fires a conical mouthrinse jet into them within 100 milliseconds โ developed with the dental faculty at the National University of Singapore.
The companion app streams the feed live but stores nothing. That's a deliberate choice for now โ a camera embedded in a daily-use device is already infrastructure for tracking gum health and plaque over time. How far Dyson intends to go with that remains open.

โฝ Sabalenka's mid-match complaint wasn't about her opponent
Leading 3-0 against Rakhimova, Aryna Sabalenka stopped play to tell the umpire: "Someone is smoking weed โ it's so strong." A radio call, a pointed gesture toward the stands, and the match continued.
It continued very well: 6-3, 6-4, ten aces, not a single break point faced. The smell, it turns out, was not a factor.
Smoking is banned at Flushing Meadows, but the adjacent Corona Park follows New York state law โ cannabis is legal there for adults. The wind has no interest in tournament rules, and Sabalenka is hardly the first to notice: Djokovic, Zverev and several players earlier this fortnight have all complained. Sixteen straight wins at the US Open, undisturbed by the neighbours.

Ryan Reynolds โ Jackman's co-star in *Deadpool & Wolverine* โ bought Welsh club Wrexham AFC in 2020 and helped take it from the fifth tier to the Championship. Now Jackman appears to be eyeing a similar move of his own.
Speaking to TalkSport, Jackman said he has supported Norwich City since childhood because the city is his mother's birthplace. The club currently plays in the Championship โ England's second tier โ and has repeatedly won promotion to the Premier League only to be relegated the following season.
Asked about rumours he was preparing to buy a significant stake, Jackman said:
Norwich's last major trophy was the League Cup in 1985. Talks are ongoing.

๐ง A debut that skipped the humble part
Rebel Wolves โ a Warsaw studio founded by Witcher 3 director Konrad Tomaszkiewicz and fellow CD Projekt RED veterans โ shipped their first game on September 3. The Blood of Dawnwalker is an open-world dark fantasy RPG: medieval Europe, a hero who's human by day and vampire by night.
48 hours later: one million copies sold. For a debut studio launching a brand-new IP, that's less of a milestone and more of a provocation.
IGN gave it a 9/10. Bandai Namco is already teasing a multi-century saga. Tomaszkiewicz promises every installment will be fully standalone โ no cliffhangers, no "to be continued."
Turns out the Witcher years were not a fluke.

Tesla self-certified the vehicles as compliant with federal safety standards. NHTSA will now review that process and the underlying data โ including which standards actually apply to a vehicle with no pedals, steering wheel or mirrors.
Reuters reports that of 420 autonomous vehicles Tesla has registered in Texas, 45 are Cybercabs. How many are carrying passengers versus testing remains unclear.
