I played Boltgun 2 and it’s sick

Boltgun 2 is a sequel to Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun, developed by Auroch Digital. It retains the essence of the original game while introducing new features, including an expanded arsenal, diverse biomes, and dual protagonists. Players can choose between two characters at the start: Nyra Veyrath, an Adepta Sororitas battle sister with a crossbow and flamethrower, and Malum Caedo, who uses a plasma gun and shotgun. The game features two demo missions set in a swampy jungle and a frozen industrial complex. Gameplay mechanics have been simplified, with a single type of grenade and a removal of the complex toughness system. The missions are more linear, focusing on straightforward objectives, but the full campaign will include more complex levels. The game is set to be released in 2026.

This tool lets you purge Windows 11 of all AI bloat features

Microsoft's Copilot chatbot is integrated into various Windows 11 applications, including the Edge browser, Photos app, and Paint software. Users can manage and disable unwanted AI components using the open-source program FlyOOBE, available for free on GitHub. To use FlyOOBE, users download a ZIP file, extract it, and run FlyOOBE.exe as an administrator. The program allows users to check the activation status of AI components and disable those they do not want by selecting them and confirming the changes. If FlyOOBE freezes, users can close the "Windows PowerShell" window to re-check components. FlyOOBE also offers features for removing bloatware. While it is free, donations to the developer, Builtbybel, are appreciated.

Windows 11 Insiders Can Now Move the Taskbar to Any Screen Edge

Microsoft is updating Windows 11 to allow users to reposition the taskbar to any edge of the screen and resize it. This feature is currently available to Windows Insider program members. The taskbar's icons, text, menus, and other elements will automatically adjust when moved. The resizing option benefits users with widescreen monitors. The movable taskbar feature, first introduced in Windows 95, was absent at Windows 11's launch in October 2021, leading to user backlash. Microsoft has been reinstating features missing from Windows 11, including drag-and-drop functionality in 2022 and improvements to the Start menu in 2023 and 2024. The rollout of the movable taskbar is ongoing for Windows Insider Dev and Beta channels, with no timeline for general availability announced.

This Subnautica 2 mod lets you kill all the fish you want

Discussions about Subnautica 2 have centered on whether players should be able to engage in combat with aquatic enemies. Many players want to defend themselves against hostile creatures like Nibbler Mangos and Hammerheads, recalling the original game's survival knife. However, developers have stated that Subnautica 2 is "not a killing game" and encouraged players interested in combat to seek other titles. This has led to mixed reactions from the community. In response to the demand for combat, modder jibotron created the "Killable Creatures" mod, which enhances existing tools to allow players to defend against oceanic nuisances without traditional weapons. With this mod, the survival multitool inflicts 20 damage, and the sonic resonator delivers 50 damage to various creatures. While the mod functions as intended, the effort required to track down creatures can detract from gameplay enjoyment. Players can also eliminate smaller fish, but their remains do not provide resources. The mod is available on Nexus Mods, requiring the installation of the UE4SS mod for functionality.

Samsung workers could be about to strike, potentially making GPUs, memory, and SSDs even more expensive

Samsung faces potential factory shutdowns due to a proposed strike involving over 43,000 workers in South Korea, which could lead to a 3-4% decline in global memory and NAND output. The Korean government has intervened, urging the union to reconsider the strike to maintain production capacity and quality. The workers' demands focus on compensation, specifically the removal of a cap on bonuses, as the company's profits reached 53.7 trillion won in the last quarter. A full-scale strike could cost Samsung up to 30 trillion won. The strikes are scheduled to begin on May 21 and last for 18 days, although ongoing negotiations may change this timeline.

D4vd’s League of Legends Arcane song seemingly removed from the official soundtrack on Spotify

Riot Games has removed the track "Remember Me," performed by D4vd, from the League of Legends Arcane Season 2 soundtrack on Spotify due to the artist's legal issues, including a charge of first-degree murder. D4vd, whose real name is David Anthony Burke, is currently pleading not guilty and is held at the Men's Central Jail in Los Angeles. The soundtrack now transitions directly from "Paint the Town Blue" by Ashnikko to "Isha's Song" by Eason Chan, omitting "Remember Me." Burke's original version of the song is also unavailable on Spotify, likely due to Riot Games holding the rights. Other industry responses include fashion brands removing Burke from campaigns and Kali Uchis requesting the removal of their collaborative single from Spotify. Players have petitioned Epic Games to remove Burke's character skin from Fortnite, but Epic has decided to retain it while offering refunds.
