Experimental RPG developer Summer Eternal: ‘We’re giving away 5% of our studio to you, the Players’ in order to ‘mend the trust broken in this industry a thousand times over’

Aleksandar Gavrilović has introduced a governance model at Summer Eternal that incorporates the interests of all stakeholders, including a player cooperative within a non-profit organization. Players will not profit personally but will have a say in how the organization’s income is allocated, aiming to rebuild trust in the gaming industry. Summer Eternal is pioneering a model that provides ownership stakes and profit-sharing to freelancers and customers, with players having a democratic influence supported by 5% of the profits. The studio will launch the Summer Eternal Anthology Vol. 1, featuring essays from notable contributors, available for preorder for one more day.

F-Droid app store thumbs its nose at Google’s dev crackdown

F-Droid has released version 2.0 of its Android app, marking its most significant upgrade in a decade. The update features a modern interface, improved app discovery, enhanced search functionality, and a streamlined user experience. The app now uses Kotlin and Jetpack Compose for its UI, allowing for quicker future improvements. However, F-Droid faces challenges due to Google's upcoming developer registration requirements set to take effect in August 2025, which could threaten its existence and that of other independent app distribution sources. The new version includes a redesigned Discover screen, automatic app updates, and benefits from the European Union’s Digital Markets Act. Despite these enhancements, the F-Droid team is concerned about the potential impact of Google's policies on their platform.

I spent a month with YouTube Premium Lite, and I’m already canceling my subscription

YouTube Premium Lite was launched in South Africa as a budget-friendly option at R49.99 per month, approximately 39% cheaper than the full YouTube Premium subscription. Users were disappointed to find that ads still appeared in various areas of the app, including recommended feeds and search results, despite the promise of an ad-free experience. The service lacks features such as offline video downloads, leading to a perception that users are not getting their money's worth. A survey indicated that many users opt out of YouTube Premium, often using ad blockers or tolerating ads instead. The demand for a more affordable ad-free experience remains unmet, and users feel that their subscriptions do not adequately support creators, especially as Alphabet reports record profits.

The AI memory crunch has reached the apps on your phone

Google will implement new memory usage regulations for Android applications starting in February 2027, due to a global RAM shortage. Apps exceeding the set memory limits may be throttled, terminated, or face reduced visibility on the Play Store. The memory thresholds vary based on device specifications, with specific limits for foreground, background, and bitmap memory usage. Non-compliance will result in penalties affecting app distribution and visibility. The memory crisis is attributed to increased demand from the AI data center industry, leading to rising RAM costs. The new limits will first apply to Pixel devices with Android 17, and other manufacturers are expected to follow. Additionally, by April 2027, all apps on the Play Store must support zero-tap credential restoration for users transitioning to new devices.

When will ‘GTA 6’ launch on PC? What we know so far.

Grand Theft Auto VI is set to launch exclusively on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S on November 19, 2026, with no PC version available at launch. A PC port is expected to be released in 2027 or later. Rockstar has not provided specific reasons for the delayed PC release, but factors such as standardized console hardware and higher per-unit revenue from consoles may influence this decision. A poll indicated that 39 percent of PC gamers are willing to wait for the PC version. Former Rockstar producer John Ricchio noted that developing for consoles first is often more manageable. Historically, Rockstar has delayed PC releases, with significant gaps between console and PC launches for previous titles like Grand Theft Auto IV, Grand Theft Auto V, and Red Dead Redemption 2.

I played the economic simulator that could ‘make a convert out of Karl Marx himself’ to see if it could convert me

An entrepreneur attempted to build a business empire starting with a department store in Jakarta that sold only laundry detergent, which led to financial losses due to a misalignment with market demand. Despite diversifying the product range to include cookies and leather shoes, losses continued. A later venture in Bombay, selling CPUs, silica, and raw tobacco, yielded a profit, albeit still negative. The entrepreneur learned valuable lessons about market demands and strategies, leading to a successful department store in Guangzhou that focused on shampoo and air conditioners, resulting in substantial profits. The game "Capitalism," which the entrepreneur engaged with, reflects the post-Cold War era and emphasizes the importance of adaptability and strategic thinking in business.
