The end of PC Music is nigh. At the end of the year, the storied London experimental pop label and crew will stop putting out new music.

Cook and EASYFUN, had only released one track before this year: “Bronze,” a compilation track that came out way back in 2017. But now Thy Slaughter’s full-length is here, and it features some famous friends. View the full article

Enlarge / macOS Mojave's wallpaper. (credit: Apple) Valve Software's Steam gaming marketplace and app will drop support for macOS 10.13 (High Sierra) and 10.14 (Mojave), according to a support page post. The change will go into effect on February 15, 2024. What will happen exactly? Valve writes: After that date, existing Steam Client installations on these operating systems will no longer receive updates of any kind including security updates. Steam Support will be unable to offer users technical support for issues related to the old operating systems, and Steam will be unable to guarantee continued functionality of Steam on the unsupported operating system versions. macOS 10.14 (dubbed Mojave by Apple) shipped more than five years ago, and time has a way of marching on, so this might not seem that momentous at first glance. But there's a reason it's particularly noteworthy as these things go: this change means the end of support for the last versions of macOS that could run 32-bit games.

Enlarge / Left: Reddit's old logo. Right: Reddit's new logo. (credit: Reddit) Writing a long comment providing detail about Reddit's refreshed logo, mascot, and typeface this week, a Reddit employee seemingly rethought the post and opted to conclude it with choice words. The post's last line currently reads: "Edit: Obligatory 'Fuck Spez' for karma." The Reddit employee, going by Acidtwist on Reddit and known as Tavish, says they're Reddit's head of brand creative (Reddit says it doesn't disclose the real identities of its workers on Reddit).

By the winter of 2025, we’ll be a full quarter-century away from the 1990s — exactly the right amount of time for the ’90s nostalgia summer tour market to morph into a ’90s nostalgia concert cruise market. That’s when the simply and directly named ’90s Cruise will set sail. On deck for the maiden voyage will be Blues Traveler, Collective Soul, Gin Blossoms, Everclear, Lit, Color Me Badd, Fastball, C+C Music Factory, Jesus Jones, Digital Underground, Sophie B. Hawkins, and Lisa Loeb, who’ll be pulling double duty as host and performer. Former MTV personalities Downtown Julie Brown and Matt Pinfield will also be on board as hosts. View the full article

Enlarge (credit: Bloomberg via Getty Images) Hello fellow procrastinators. This is your last-minute warning that you have until the end of the day to log in to any inactive Google accounts before they start getting deleted on December 1. Google is going to wipe any accounts that have been "inactive" for two years, allowing the company to free up storage space, delete unused personal data, and continue the ongoing journey of intense cost cutting it has been on for the past year. The plan to do this was announced in May, and Google says inactive accounts should get "multiple notifications over the months leading up to deletion, to both the account email address and the recovery email (if one has been provided)," so hopefully this isn't a surprise to anyone. The company says it will "take a phased approach" to deleting accounts, starting with "accounts that were created and never used again," so even if you're reading this on December 1, there's probably still time to log in to an old account and save it. As for the caveats around "inactivity," Google says this will only apply to personal accounts that don't have any subscriptions running, so Google Workspace and Google One users have nothing to fear. The company says you'll count as "active" if you "sign-in at least once every 2 years," which is pretty easy to do. Confusingly it also lists certain activities you can perform that will count as "activity," but those seem rather moot, since you would already need to be logged in to do them. The "Sign in with Google" OAuth platform on other websites also counts as account activity, and so does being signed in on an Android phone.

Enlarge / The enhanced edition trilogy includes Grand Theft Auto 3, Grand Theft Auto Vice City, and Grand Theft Auto San Andreas. (credit: Rockstar Games) Netflix subscribers will be able to play the three original 3D Grand Theft Auto games on iOS and Android starting in December, according to a blog post from the streamer. The titles included are 2001's Grand Theft Auto III, 2002's Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, and 2004's Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. All three released initially on the PS2 and Xbox. The first 3D entry in the series, Grand Theft Auto III, was a crossover cultural sensation when it debuted, and it is credited as one of the main originators of the open-world genre, which remains one of the most popular genres in triple-A games to this day.

Enlarge / The active cooling chips are labeled and located in the upper-left corner near a custom heatsink in the 15-inch MacBook Air. What if laptops could get fan-level cooling without moving parts? We could get thinner laptops, for one. We could also potentially squeeze more performance out of today's already impressively thin designs. That's what San Jose, California startup Frore Systems is trying to convince laptop makers of as it looks for the first OEM to adopt what it describes as the first solid-state active cooling chip. Most recently, the company equipped the M2 15-inch MacBook Air with three of its chips, dubbed AirJet Minis. Media witnesses to a recent demonstration reported that the chips helped bring MacBook Pro-comparable performance to sustained heavy workloads on the MacBook Air.
