October 12, 2025, 2:03 AM EDT. MachineGames marks its 15th anniversary with a free New Game+ update for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, but hints a broader future. A post on X features a prominent open square that sparked speculation about a new game, with fans hoping for a Wolfenstein return. The studio previously described Wolfenstein as a trilogy, and head Jerk Gustafsson has said they're not done with the Nazi-slasher series. While an Indiana Jones project could also be in development, the consensus is rising that Wolfenstein may be next, and BJ Blazkowicz could reprise his role. Either way, the chatter underscores the enduring appeal of MachineGames' action-adventure lineup and the larger video games industry push for new installments.

October 12, 2025, 2:02 AM EDT. Jon Stewart sits down with Geoffrey Hinton, often called the godfather of AI, to unpack what makes modern AI tick. The interview offers a lucid breakdown of neural networks, how the technology works, and why it’s reshaping computing today. The conversation also tackles the darker side: potential risks, ethical concerns, and scenarios in which AI could go wrong or be misused. Hinton weighs when safeguards are needed, how fast progress might outpace policy, and what researchers and society should discuss to steer development responsibly. This episode helps listeners separate hype from reality and understand both the promise and the perils of advanced AI.

October 12, 2025, 2:00 AM EDT. Xbox’s Bethesda teases a new title from MachineGames, with a graphic hinting at a project alongside their Wolfenstein lineup. The box with a question mark fuels speculation about a new project, possibly a Wolfenstein III entry rather than an Indiana Jones and the Great Circle sequel, due to licensing and prior development timelines. It’s been six years since the last Wolfenstein release, and while Wolfenstein III has been promised, the team may be returning to its classic stealth‑shooter roots. Fans have waited eight years for a proper sequel after 2017’s The New Colossus. If true, this tease could mark the long‑rumored revival of the series under Bethesda and Xbox.

October 12, 2025, 1:46 AM EDT. Google's October 2025 Pixel update arrives with bug fixes rather than a major release. Builds vary by device (Global and Japan), with Pixel 7 through Pixel 10 Pro XL receiving BP3A.251005.004.B1 (and Pixel 10/10 Pro XL on BD3A.251005.003.W3 in some regions). Pixel 6 series are again skipped this month. Fixed issues cover camera performance, a screen flicker bug, and Casting media stability, plus UI tweaks. Other fixes target a lingering semi-transparent background after launching the camera, better system stability, and flashlight/At a Glance widget behavior. This update continues Google's cadence after the prior month's bigger release, emphasizing bug fixes over new features.

To get Dipplin, evolve Applin using 20 Syrupy Apples and 200 Applin Candy.
