Take the edge off.

As promised, Netflix has released the first trailer for the sequel to its Cyberpunk 2077 anime Edgerunners. The new season will tell a standalone story, and the first look is full of blood, guitars, and some delightfully retro shots. No specific premiere date yet, but it’ll start streaming in the fall.

F1 is using the world’s fastest camera drone at the Austrian GP.

The racing league has been testing it for at least two years now, and it’s ready to make its big debut. It can accelerate to 300 km/h (186 mph) in 4 seconds with a top speed of over 350 km/h (217 mph). The big challenge is keeping that up for an entire lap without exploding.

Flying Lotus composed two ringtones for iOS 13. He was recently asked by Almanac of Rap host Donwill who he would put on the track if Daybreak were a song and not a ringtone. He said Freddie Gibbs and now I can’t stop thinking about the possibilities.
