Microsoft is about to pull the plug on Windows 10. Support for the decade-old operating system is scheduled to end on October 14, and users are encouraged to upgrade to Windows 11. However, we're less than two months out from that end-of-support date, and nearly 43% PC owners are still running Windows 10. These users must now either upgrade their devices or continue using the outdated software if their device doesn't support Windows 11. To give its users more time to upgrade their software and

CNET's key takeaways The Wave 3 lists for $1,300, but often drops to $900. The optional battery pack adds between $550 and $900, depending on sales and deals. The Wave 3 offers enough cooling and heating for small spaces and does so reasonably quietly (it's still an air conditioner after all). While portable, the Wave 3 with the battery is fairly heavy at 55.1 pounds. A few years ago, I built a campervan out of a Ford Transit Connect.

Discounty adds some bite to cozy life sims

theverge.com Andrew Webster 2025-10-31 15:00:00

There’s a pleasing rhythm to cozy life sims. The virtual days pass, filled with chores of tending crops or running a business, punctuated by strange mysteries or evolving relationships. At their best, these games merge busywork with exploration and storytelling, in a way that makes them hard to step away from. Discounty, from developer Crinkle Cut Games, applies this idea to running a small-town supermarket. And while in many ways it can still be considered “cozy” like its contemporaries, it als

SQLite's documentation about its durability properties is unclear

news.ycombinator.com Andrew Ayer 2025-10-31 15:30:29

One of the most important properties of a database is durability. Durability means that after a transaction commits, you can be confident that, absent catastrophic hardware failure, the changes made by the commit won't be lost. This should remain true even if the operating system crashes or the system loses power soon after the commit. On Linux, and most other Unix operating systems, durability is ensured by calling the fsync system call at the right time. Durability comes at a performance cost
