Windows Task Manager’s original creator is bringing a new version to Mac first

David W. Plummer, the creator of the original Windows Task Manager, is developing a new tool called Task Manager OG (TMOG) for macOS, aimed at providing a comprehensive system console for users of graphical user interface-based operating systems. TMOG will feature detailed insights into processor frequency, thermal values, resource allocation metrics, in-depth analysis of CPU core activity, and process branching visualization. The macOS version is being developed using Swift and AppKit, while the Windows version will be a pure Win32 application optimized for x86-64 architecture. A beta version for macOS is currently available, with a Windows beta expected soon. TMOG will be free, with a potential "Pro" version planned for additional features. Plummer's previous company, SoftwareOnline, faced legal issues after he left Microsoft, resulting in a settlement that included 0,000 in civil penalties and ,000 in legal fees.

‘Wait for me, my Czech friend’: Japanese dev adds Czech localization just for the one Steam user who wishlisted his game in the Czech Republic

The Czech Republic and Japan formed a bond during the 2023 World Baseball Cup when the Czech national baseball team, mostly made up of amateur players, played against Japan and lost 2-10. The Czech pitcher Ondrej Satoria struck out Shohei Ohtani, earning admiration from Japanese fans. In a related development, Japanese developer Eba Game is launching a game called Ball Boy Simulator on Steam, which includes Czech language support due to a request from a Czech user. The game explores the psychological horror of high school baseball clubs and incorporates AI-generated content for various elements. The quality of localization for the Czech audience is yet to be determined.

An official Microsoft engineer gives a favorite unofficial Windows 11 app a shiny polish

Microsoft is addressing performance gaps in Windows 11, particularly with built-in applications. Users have turned to third-party applications like Files, which has received a substantial update focusing on file extraction and folder loading improvements. The update includes enhanced user experience features, such as updated sidebar icons and improved management of encrypted archives. A notable addition is the integration of WindowSill into Files, allowing users to perform various tasks directly from file selections without opening dedicated applications. This integration provides context-aware actions for different file types, including images, PDFs, videos, and Office documents. The update also includes numerous bug fixes and performance enhancements. The latest version of Files, 4.2.2, is available for download on GitHub and the Microsoft Store.

One day Owlcat will make an RPG that’s perfect out of the box, but 3 years after launch, it’s time to get disgustingly into Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader

Owlcat Games is known for ambitious role-playing games, but their latest title, Rogue Trader, received a lukewarm 59% rating from PCG upon its December 2023 launch. The game features deep character building, allowing players to explore various builds after significant gameplay investment. The author initially created a powerful character build called the "Death World Pyromancer Psyker Blade Dancer Executioner," but found it less exciting than controlling the companion Abellard, who has a build called the "Navy Officer Warrior Arch Militant." Rogue Trader includes elements such as companion interactions, romance, skill development, planetary management, and trading, with a focus on turn-based combat and build crafting. The success of Rogue Trader has led to anticipation for Owlcat's upcoming game, Dark Heresy.

Шон Торренте победил на Иссык-Куле и назвал Кыргызстан идеальным финалом карьеры

The inaugural stage of the F1H2O World Championship concluded on August 2 at Issyk-Kul, Kyrgyzstan, with Sean Torrente from the Victory Team winning the Grand Prix. The race featured 18 pilots navigating 40 laps around a two-kilometer circuit at an altitude of 1,607 meters. Torrente noted challenges from shifting winds and waves, and he announced his intention to retire from competitive racing after this victory. The event, held from July 31 to August 2, was the first of its kind in Central Asia and the highest-altitude race on the calendar. Eduard Kubatov, head of the State Agency for Tourism Development, reported that the competition was incident-free and mentioned ongoing discussions about hosting the championship stage annually at Issyk-Kul.

Windows 11 Search is fixing its biggest annoyance, will find files in folders you actually use

Windows 11 Search is a crucial tool for users who create and download files, but it often struggles to find recently accessed files due to its indexing limitations. Microsoft is introducing a feature called “Automatically find additional relevant locations,” which will automatically identify and index folders based on user activity, reducing the need for manual indexing. Currently, Windows Search maintains an index focused on specific folders, which can lead to frustrations when files are not found. Users can manually add locations or switch to Enhanced mode for broader indexing, though this may result in irrelevant search results and increased resource usage. The new feature aims to streamline the search process by making significant folders searchable automatically while allowing users to block any unwanted folders. Additionally, Microsoft is enhancing Windows Search to better recognize typos and plans to disable Bing search and ads in results. These updates are expected to be rolled out later this year.
