Meta’s new app is basically social media for vibe coded games and experiences

Meta has launched a new app called Pocket in 2026, which allows users to vibe-code creations using AI without manual coding.

Pocket offers a wide range of interactive possibilities, including game development, camera filters, and experiences similar to popular apps like Snapchat.

Windows 11 is finally getting an audio feature I’ve been begging Microsoft to add for years

Microsoft is developing a "shared audio" feature for Windows 11 that will allow users to play sound through multiple devices simultaneously. This feature aims to simplify the process of outputting audio from two devices, which has previously been complicated. Currently, it is under development and may enable users to control audio output for two devices directly from the volume controls on the taskbar. The feature is expected to be available in the Beta and Dev branches of Windows 11.

Windows 11 24H2 strikes a sour note as audio bug hits the update, leaving some PCs silent

Windows 11 version 24H2 has audio output issues affecting certain devices, causing silence from built-in speakers, Bluetooth devices, and headsets. Microsoft has acknowledged this problem in its release health dashboard and identified Dirac Audio software, specifically the cridspapo.dll file, as the cause. A temporary block on the 24H2 update has been implemented for systems using Dirac Audio to prevent further complications. Microsoft is working with Dirac to develop a new driver to fix the issue, which will be distributed through Windows Update once available. Users on earlier versions, such as Windows 11 23H2, are not affected by the audio bug. Additionally, there is another issue where some PCs unexpectedly play sound at maximum volume.
