Microsoft refuses to add this File Explorer feature, so the Files app stepped up

The Files app has introduced a feature in version 4.1.3 that allows users to calculate folder sizes on demand, which was not available in Windows 11's File Explorer.

The app now retains selection across different layouts, ensuring previously selected items remain highlighted. It also offers multiple methods for clearing tags from files, including options from the context menu, toolbar, and Command Palette. Additionally, the update features a refreshed OneDrive icon that reflects current branding, and several fixes have been implemented, including resolving issues with extracting tar archives and correcting display problems for BitLocker locked drives.

EDB adds quorum commit to distributed Postgres 6.4

EDB has released version 6.4 of its Postgres Distributed (PGD) solution, which includes enhancements such as quorum commit, native connection pooling, and support for PostgreSQL large objects. The quorum commit feature ensures a unified transaction outcome across cluster nodes before finalizing a transaction, addressing potential risks from conflicting writes in distributed systems. This update targets organizations in sectors like banking, payments, telecommunications, and infrastructure, aiming to provide the same consistency guarantees previously reliant on proprietary databases. The Connection Manager now includes native connection pooling, reducing the need for external connection poolers and streamlining operations by integrating with PGD's Raft consensus layer. This integration allows for automatic route adjustments during failover and improved monitoring capabilities. Additionally, the update expands replication support to include PostgreSQL large objects, enhancing the applicability of distributed Postgres for managing mixed data sets in sectors like government, healthcare, and financial services. EDB also noted a Gartner forecast that by 2030, over 75% of enterprises in Europe and the Middle East will have repatriated workloads to their home jurisdictions, emphasizing the importance of consistent data management across locations. EDB aims to strengthen Postgres's position in the market by focusing on transaction integrity in distributed environments while minimizing reliance on additional infrastructure components.

Marathon’s new PvE experiment is Bungie’s most genius decision yet, so make it a full mode already

Players can now access the new content from Marathon's Season 2 update after initial server issues. The update features a nighttime Dire Marsh map, which has limited visibility and requires players to use torches and gadgets. The experimental Sponsored Survival mode is a key highlight, available from June 2 to June 9, allowing players to explore the map without immediate threats from other players, aside from UESC bots. Solo Rook players will gradually join the match, increasing competition for loot. Interactions with Rooks are infrequent, leading to mostly non-violent encounters. This mode aims to provide a PvE experience while maintaining PvP elements. A full PvE mode is anticipated to debut later in Season 2.

More features will be revealed before testing begins later this summer.
