The plan also includes a fee-free support button so fans can contribute directly to their favorite artists, on-demand vinyl pressing, and support for merch stores.

Spotify hasn’t launched a native app for Amazon’s new Vega OS yet, so Amazon built a clunky workaround for the first Fire TV stick running Vega.

After launching preview last week, the first post-launch patch for Hades II is officially out now, and it contains “enhancements” to the true ending, Supergiant Games says. I wasn’t a fan of how it all originally played out, but the changes in the preview were well received (major spoilers!).

My beloved Blue Jays are currently up 3-2 in the World Series, in part due to an outstanding performance from 22-year-old Trey Yesavage, who apparently uses doomscrolling as a way to prepare mentally. Professional athletes: they’re just like us!
