An explanation on why Big Walk isn't available on Xbox. bigwalk.game/xbox
Regarding Xbox

In June 2026 we announced that the release of Big Walk would be limited to computers, Switch 2 and PS5. Since then, we have received many messages and comments, asking about a future Xbox release. We would like to address those questions here:

We have made the decision not to release Big Walk on Xbox, in accordance with the Palestinian-led BDS (Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions) movement’s call to boycott Microsoft, and their designation of Microsoft Games (and Xbox) as a priority boycott target. If you need help understanding our motives, we would recommend reading about why Microsoft is a BDS priority target, the successes this kind of pressure has already had on Microsoft, and especially, watching this great introductory piece by People Make Games.

It has always been our intention for Big Walk to be played by groups of friends, and we know that keeping the game off Xbox runs counter to those intentions. This decision means that some people will miss out on playing Big Walk with their friends, and we understand the disappointment we’re causing. We are disappointed too.

We would love for people to be able to play the game on Xbox, but not until Microsoft and/or Xbox have been removed as BDS boycott targets.

We’ve made this decision with the belief that meaningful change can be made in the world, that coordinated collective action can confront even the most powerful interests, and that one day, Palestine will be free.

Thank you for your understanding.

Sincerely,
House House

Watching this Apple event tout how iPhones will soon be able to record ambient audio/conversations and transcribe "high level notes" for you. It's billed as private and end-to-end encrypted, but I think the bigger harm is the normalization of always-listening devices. It's creepy and not normal.

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos says human wa consumption is limiting Al's potential
Skipping fears of mass unemployment Bezas used his VivaTech paper to argue that an a creates more tasks.
ve alt textbpd.news

TECH-DRIVEN EVOLUTION: Jeff Bezos has ignited an intense online firestorm following a highly controversial stance on how global natural resources should be allocated in the age of artificial intelligence.

“We have to look at the macro-picture of our planet’s future,” Bezos reportedly stated during a recent tech symposium. “Biological limits are real, but digital potential is infinite. If we starve our data infrastructure of cooling resources just to sustain baseline human comfort, we are actively delaying the birth of a super-intelligence that could solve all of our resource problems in the first place. Sometimes you have to prioritize the intelligence that will save us over the biology that slows us down.”

The striking remarks have left the internet deeply divided, sparking fierce debate over whether the statement represents a chillingly pragmatic view of technological progress or a completely detached tech-utopian ideology.

What a guy
4 panel comic

Panel 1: a wizard in blue robe and white beard sitting with small forg at a desk behind the computer. “Click, click” is the sound of the mouse to be heard
Panel 2: close up on the computer screen. There’s a green check mark and a full loading bar on it. From off screen someone, probably the wizard, says “boom, there it is”.
Panel 3: forg is left behind alone at his desk. There’s an open door in the background. Forg says “thanks installation wizard” and a little pink heart appears, showing his affection.
Panel 4: we see now that the wizard has already left the house after a job well done. He replies to forg watching him go from his window: “it’s what I do”

@pocketcasts.com I just updated to the new Liquid Glass version of the iOS app. Looks nifty! But is there a particular reason why the media controls of the mini player have to be on the right side? It’s a pretty big downgrade for left-handed people because it’s a lot harder to reach now.
PocketCasts’ new Liquid Glass UI puts the media controls on the right side of the screen. It was bigger and centered before the update.

I’ve been doing an M. Night Shyamalan movie marathon over the last couple weeks. While there have been some ups and a lot of downs, I appreciate(?) his ability to stick to a ~100 minute runtime (so far), no matter the movie or genre, and even if it’s to the detriment of the movie.
