Xbox Cloud Gaming Caps Hours: 15 for Ultimate [2026]

On September 3, 2026, Microsoft announced that Xbox Game Pass subscribers will see a shift in cloud gaming access. Starting November 2026, unlimited cloud streaming will be replaced by a tiered hour bank system: 15 hours for Ultimate, 10 for Premium, and 5 for Essential subscribers. Once a subscriber exhausts their allotted hours, they must wait for the next billing cycle or purchase additional time. This change is the most significant since the beta launch of Xbox Cloud Gaming in 2019. The announcement was made on Xbox Wire, and the new structure is reflected on Xbox’s product pages. The new tiered system introduces a scarcity model, with every paid tier now having its own cloud gaming quota. Essential subscribers, who previously had no cloud access, will now receive 5 hours per month. The pricing for the Game Pass tiers is as follows: Ultimate at .99 for 15 hours, Premium at .99 for 10 hours, and Essential at .99 for 5 hours. The free ad-supported tier remains unchanged at 5 hours per month. Microsoft's rationale for the change is based on usage data indicating that most subscribers do not heavily utilize cloud streaming, coupled with the rising costs of operating cloud gaming services. The company has stated that additional hours can be purchased once a subscriber's monthly allotment is used up, although pricing details for these add-ons have not yet been disclosed. The new hour caps will take effect in November 2026, following a shorter notice period compared to NVIDIA's GeForce NOW service, which implemented a 100-hour monthly cap earlier in 2026. The response from gaming communities has been largely negative, with concerns about the limits falling short of typical usage patterns and conflicting with the marketing of Game Pass as offering unlimited access. The introduction of hour caps could impact Game Pass's subscriber base, particularly among those who rely on cloud gaming as their primary access point. Microsoft's internal usage data will determine the extent of this impact, as the company aims to control costs without raising subscription prices.

3 Android Auto Problems That Are Almost Always The Cable’s Fault

Users experiencing intermittent connection issues with Android Auto often face problems due to the USB cable. A loose plug can disrupt data flow, causing disconnections, especially on bumpy roads. Older cables may have worn out tension pins, leading to unstable connections. Audio stuttering and frozen maps can also result from poor-quality USB cables that are not well-shielded or have exposed wires, causing signal degradation. The cable must supply power and transmit data, including map data and real-time alerts, which places significant strain on it. If a cable is unshielded or damaged, it can introduce digital noise, leading to audio glitches and navigation issues. Replacing the faulty cable with a high-quality, well-shielded data cable or using a Bluetooth connection can resolve these issues.

Firefox has added official support for GeForce NOW on Windows

Mozilla and NVIDIA have integrated GeForce NOW support for Firefox on Windows, allowing users to stream games without separate applications or local installations. This feature provides access to over 2,000 titles from platforms like Steam and the Epic Games Store. NVIDIA is not compensating Mozilla for this integration, and Mozilla addressed challenges such as the keyboard lock issue. Hardware acceleration enhances the streaming experience, although it is not required. Users can choose to play via the native app or stream in Firefox. Currently, official support is limited to Windows, with plans for expansion. GeForce NOW Ultimate members can access up to 1440p resolution and 120 FPS. There are known issues with capture and fullscreen mouse functionality, and a bug affecting video colors on macOS is being addressed.

12-Year-Old PostgreSQL Vulnerability Enables Database, Server Takeover

A significant vulnerability in PostgreSQL, tracked as CVE-2026-6471, has been identified by cybersecurity firm Cyera. This flaw, present since 2014, allows attackers with minimal privileges to potentially take control of databases and servers. The vulnerability, known as PostGREShell, has a CVSS score of 7.2 and can be exploited for remote code execution and privilege escalation due to a missing authorization in the database's logical decoding mechanism. Attackers with 'Replication' privileges can load arbitrary files through the logical decoding plugin, executing code with the privileges of the postgres system user. This can lead to the elevation of privileges to superuser status, granting unrestricted access to all tables and the ability to execute operating system commands. All PostgreSQL versions from 9.4 to 18 are affected, with a patch available in versions 18.6, 17.11, 16.15, 15.19, and 14.24. Organizations are advised to update their PostgreSQL instances and audit their Replication accounts.
