I turned my $1,000 phone into a 1995 desktop computer with this quirky Android launcher

Most Android launchers focus on functionality, with options like Microsoft Launcher for productivity and Senior Home for a decluttered interface. The author struggles with organization, preferring a chaotic arrangement of apps and files. They decided to transform their Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra into a Windows 95 homage, inspired by nostalgia for the operating system. The community on the r/windows95 subreddit celebrates this legacy. To achieve the transformation, the author used Launcher95, which offers a free and paid version. The app provides a home screen reminiscent of Windows 95, featuring a Start button, alphabetical app listing, and customization options. While initially a novelty, the author found useful features like quick links to webpages. Launcher95 may not suit everyone, especially those with many apps, but it offers a unique charm and can promote a simpler digital experience when used minimally.

How Microsoft hopes to win back enthusiasts: A deep dive into the Windows Insider reboot

Microsoft is making significant changes to the Windows Insider Program to address user feedback and improve community engagement. Key changes include: - A simplified channel strategy with clearer purpose-driven channels: an Experimental track for early feature flags and a Beta track for more predictable releases. - Introduction of a feature-flags page in Experimental builds, allowing testers to opt into visible features. - Easier movement between channels without needing complete reinstalls. - Assignment of Directly Responsible Individuals (DRIs) to oversee specific areas based on community feedback. Upcoming features for Windows 11 include new taskbar positioning options, improved integration of Copilot, enhanced File Explorer functionality, and a redesigned Feedback Hub. Microsoft aims to rebuild trust by focusing on quality in Beta builds and publicly acknowledging community contributions. The company is prioritizing refining Windows 11 over launching a new version, Windows 12.

Moving Valheim away from being an MMO was “the best decision” the team made

Valheim is a Norse-inspired survival game developed by Iron Gate Studio, which allows players to build homes and fight monsters. It is set to release its 1.0 version five years after its initial launch. The game has been compared to titles like Rust but maintains a unique charm. The development team decided against an MMO format, which they consider "the best design decision." Valheim began as a test project for networking solutions, evolving into a game focused on single-player and small group experiences. The Nordic theme was chosen for its compatibility with the gameplay, despite the CEO Richard Svensson not being a fan of Viking lore. The game's art style was developed out of necessity, allowing for easier solo production. Each biome in the game is created separately, with influences from games like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, while loosely incorporating Norse mythology. Valheim has achieved financial success and critical acclaim during its early access phase, enabling Iron Gate Studio to focus on its development. The game is currently available on Steam at a 50% discount. Indie Game Works, featuring a chapter on Valheim, is available in limited and general editions.
