Android Auto Users Get New Phones, End Up Losing Major Google Maps Update

Users of the Google Pixel 11 have reported a glitch that results in the loss of access to a significant update for Google Maps, which includes immersive navigation features such as advanced 3D maps and contextual information. This issue arises because the rollout of the immersive navigation feature is managed through a server-side flag based on device ID, causing the Pixel 11 to re-enter the queue for the update rather than receiving it immediately. Google has not yet issued a fix for this problem, and the immersive update for Google Maps is currently being rolled out in stages across the United States.

I’ve played Heroes of Might and Magic 3: Remake, and I still can’t believe we’re getting 2 HoMMs in the same year

The franchise Heroes of Might and Magic is experiencing a revival after more than ten years, with the early access release of Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era earlier this year and a full launch anticipated in 2027. The HoMM 3 Remake is the third iteration of the iconic game, featuring a fresh art style and several enhancements while retaining the essence of the original. The remake allows up to four players to embark on quests and introduces quality-of-life improvements, such as visibility of enemy troop movement ranges. The gameplay involves commanding heroes and armies, battling monsters, conquering towns, and gathering resources. The new art style features more detailed units and dynamic combat animations, although there are concerns about the loss of the original's distinctive character. Both the HoMM 3 Remake and Olden Era are set to launch around the same time, providing fans with multiple options for tactical gameplay.

The Windows 10 deadline most ISVs haven’t planned for yet

Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB 2016 and Windows 10 IoT Enterprise 2016 LTSB will reach their end of support on October 13, 2026, after which they will no longer receive security updates. These operating systems are designed for fixed-function devices like kiosks and point-of-sale terminals, which are often not actively managed, posing risks if the end-of-support date is overlooked. Microsoft offers an Extended Security Updates (ESU) program as a temporary solution, with escalating costs over three years, but it is not intended as a long-term fix. Customers must decide whether to continue paying for ESU, upgrade to newer hardware, or transition away from Windows.
