Local co-op died with the living room. Most retro sessions today happen with a friend three states away, and screen-sharing tools like Parsec add a full frame of lag on top of whatever the emulator itself costs you. Netplay skips that tax by syncing inputs, not video, which is why Dolphin, RetroArch, and PCSX2 all…
OpenAI shipped the Agents API into public beta on September 10, 2026, and it changes the default way developers wire up autonomous coding and research agents. Instead of stitching together the Responses API, a custom orchestration loop, and a sandbox provider, you now call a single managed endpoint that runs the same Codex harness OpenAI…
Every Steam Deck owner eventually hits the same wall: a game launches fine on Windows but crashes, stutters, or refuses to boot on Linux. The fix usually isn’t a new graphics driver or a reinstalled game. It’s a different build of Proton. As of September 2026, Valve’s default Proton sits at version 11.0-2, the community-maintained…
Kubernetes cost management sits at the center of the broader cloud computing conversation in 2026, and clusters are running hotter on cost than almost anything else in the infrastructure budget. The numbers back that up. Cast AI’s 2026 State of Kubernetes Optimization Report, based on telemetry from tens of thousands of production clusters across AWS,…
Three weeks ago, a single line item on a benchmark tracker started a debate that’s still running through engineering Slack channels: an open-weight model from DeepSeek matched a flagship Claude release on coding accuracy at roughly a tenth of the price. That comparison, and the parallel rise of Meta’s Llama 4 family, has pushed a…
If you can write down how you do your work, you can automate it. Here’s what I did to support GitHub’s APAC marketing team. The post Marketing ops as code: Automating events from planning to follow-up on GitHub appeared first on The GitHub Blog.

A “free” Roblox exploit executor or a cracked Steam game isn’t free. It’s a delivery vehicle. Since June 2026, security researchers at Bitdefender, Kaspersky, Malwarebytes, and ThreatLocker have independently tracked a wave of info-stealer and remote access trojan (RAT) campaigns hiding inside game cheats, mod loaders, and script executors aimed at Roblox, Minecraft, and PC…
Remote Desktop Protocol still sits on the front line of almost every ransomware intrusion chain, and 2026 has done nothing to change that. Attackers scan the internet in minutes for exposed port 3389, throw credential lists at whatever answers, and pivot from there. If your organization runs Windows Server or lets staff RDP into workstations…
Pokémon Legends Z-A landed on Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 in October 2025, and within weeks the emulation scene had a working boot path for it. The catch is that the two emulators most players relied on for years, Yuzu and Ryujinx, no longer exist after Nintendo’s 2024 legal actions shut both down. Their replacements…
