How to go on dates in Moonlight Peaks and start your road to romance

In Moonlight Peaks, to go on a date, you must achieve a four-heart friendship level with a townie, then select "Invite" and "Ask on date" during a conversation. After going to bed, the date will occur the following evening at 6 PM. Engaging in mini activities during the date is necessary for success, and regardless of the outcome, your relationship status will change to "dating." You can date multiple individuals, but the most recent invite will determine who picks you up for the date. Once dating, rewards include friendship points, affectionate gestures, and potential gifts from dates.

Android Auto just became much more useful for motorcycle riders with this app update

Sygic has launched its Motorbike Mode, now integrated with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, providing a dedicated navigation experience for motorcyclists. This mode allows riders to explore twisty roads, offers real-time elevation changes, monitors lean angles, and provides weather updates, along with offline maps. The integration enhances usability with larger maps on motorcycle displays, high-visibility alerts for hazards, speed limits, and weather changes, and allows navigation controls through the motorcycle's native buttons. Voice guidance is available through Bluetooth helmet systems. The update, version 26.4, responds to user feedback for a motorcycle dashboard experience. It is compatible with select models from manufacturers like Honda, Harley-Davidson, and Indian, while some premium features are exclusive to Sygic’s Premium+ subscription.

Microsoft to enable Windows settings backup by default for orgs

Microsoft will enable the Windows settings backup and restore tool by default for enterprise systems joined to Microsoft Entra or operating in a hybrid environment with the upgrade to Windows 11 version 26H2. This tool, previously known as Windows Backup for Organizations, assists users in backing up and restoring Windows settings after events like device resets or upgrades. The tool debuted at the Microsoft Ignite conference in November 2024, became publicly available in August 2025, and requires the September 2025 Windows Monthly Cumulative Update for access. The default-on setting applies only to eligible devices where administrators have not set the policy otherwise, and IT administrators can manage this through mobile device management solutions. Restore functionality will not be enabled by default and requires administrative configuration. The default-on behavior will also be available in the Windows Insider Program Experimental channel starting July 2026.

Valve shares Windows drivers for Steam Machine and says an official dual-boot wizard will ship “once it’s complete”

Valve's Steam Machine combines console and PC gaming experiences, running on SteamOS but allowing users to install alternative operating systems like Windows. Valve has released official drivers for essential hardware components to support Windows installation, though they do not provide technical support for users who choose this option. Installing Windows requires wiping SteamOS, as dual-booting is not supported. Users can access the boot menu by powering off the device and restarting while pressing the Escape key. An internet connection via Ethernet is necessary during Windows setup, as Wi-Fi functionality will only be restored after installing the wireless drivers.
Companies are now using automatic Windows installers to display Adware through the Microsoft Store when you install new hardware — customer immediately gets McAfee ads on their PC after connecting new LG monitor; here's how to block the new ads

Companies are now using automatic Windows installers to display Adware through the Microsoft Store when you install new hardware — customer immediately gets McAfee ads on their PC after connecting new LG monitor; here’s how to block the new ads

LG monitors are displaying unsolicited advertisements for McAfee, which users find intrusive and frustrating. This issue arose when the LG Monitor App Installer was automatically added to users' PCs, similar to how some motherboard software integrates during Windows reinstallation. Reports indicate that this is not an isolated incident, as other users have experienced the same problem. Additionally, other manufacturers like Alienware and Samsung may be engaging in similar practices, facilitated by a Microsoft policy that allows automatic downloads of related monitor software. This trend raises concerns about user consent and the prevalence of unwanted software installations.

My first 40 days in Moonlight Peaks started off with juicy feuds, but its anemic character writing is starting to show through

A new farm simulation game, Moonlight Peaks, has been released, featuring gameplay elements such as cultivating crops, foraging, tending to animals, forging friendships, crafting, mining, and fishing. The game introduces four feuding families of supernatural beings, adding drama to the narrative. Initial impressions suggest that while the characters provide entertainment, the game struggles with tone consistency, particularly with the portrayal of Orlock, a comedic vampire patriarch, and the serious dynamics involving his daughter, Mina. Moonlight Peaks faces competition from the upcoming game Fields of Mistria, and the reviewer is currently unconvinced of its value in the market.

You still can’t kill fish in Subnautica 2, but starting tomorrow you’ll at least be able to ‘stun’ them

Subnautica 2 has sold over one million copies within its first hour and surpassed four million in a week. The game features aggressive alien creatures and implements a no-killing policy, removing the knife from gameplay. Modders have created a combat mod, but an official update (version 1.1) will introduce a stun system that allows players to deter aggressive fish using a sonic resonator. This update will include "stun states" for various creatures, enhancing gameplay while maintaining the game's focus on exploration and survival without violence.
