A Busy Stretch for Game Pass

Microsoft has revealed the next batch of games heading to Xbox Game Pass, covering releases from mid-June through early July. The lineup includes a mix of new arrivals, returning titles, and a surprise addition from the Call of Duty series, giving subscribers a wide range of genres to explore.

Among the games joining the service are strategy, action, and adventure titles, alongside several day-one releases. The unexpected appearance of another Call of Duty game drew particular attention, as Microsoft continues folding more of Activision Blizzard’s catalog into Game Pass following its acquisition of the publisher.

The update keeps up Game Pass’ recent pattern of balancing major franchise releases with smaller and more experimental games. For subscribers, it means a steady stream of new options without needing to purchase each title individually, especially during a packed summer release season.

Comment:

At this point, half the fun of Game Pass announcements is seeing which game shows up out of nowhere. The service has become a strange mix of blockbuster franchises and games most people had never heard of a week earlier.

Understanding Underground Utility Risks Before Digging

What Happens When You Dig Without Locating Utilities First?

Learn what can happen when excavation begins before underground utilities are properly located.

Small digging jobs can turn messy fast when underground utilities are not located first. Fences, drainage repairs, landscaping, and tree planting can all hit buried gas, electrical, internet, irrigation, or lighting lines.

The post explains that public utility markings may not show everything on private property. Older lots, renovated yards, detached garages, pools, and commercial sites can have extra lines that are not always documented.

Private utility locates help crews spot hidden risks before work starts, which can prevent safety issues, repair bills, and delays across the whole project.

People Are Split on iOS 26

Early reactions to Apple’s iOS 26 seem pretty mixed, with some users liking the new features while others are already frustrated by bugs, battery drain, and changes that don’t feel especially necessary.

The update introduces several interface tweaks and AI-focused additions, but a lot of the conversation online has centered on stability instead. Some people are reporting smoother performance and useful quality-of-life upgrades, while others say the software still feels unfinished in places, especially on older devices.

There’s also the usual cycle of users debating whether to install immediately or wait for later patches. That tends to happen with almost every major iPhone update now, especially when Apple pushes larger design or system-level changes all at once.

Comment: Every big iOS release eventually turns into two groups yelling past each other online: people saying it completely transformed their phone, and people wondering why their battery suddenly lasts four hours less.

Apple’s folding iPhone still a maybe

Apple is continuing to explore the idea of a foldable iPhone, but it’s still unclear what form it will actually take. Current reports suggest the company is testing different designs, including something closer to a fold-out iPhone and possibly even a larger, hybrid-style device.

There’s also uncertainty around branding. Some speculation points to a completely new category name, while others suggest it could be positioned as a higher-end “Ultra” model rather than a distinct foldable line. Apple hasn’t confirmed anything publicly, and the project appears to still be in an experimental phase.

Technical challenges remain a big factor. Apple is reportedly focused on improving durability, reducing visible creases, and making sure the display and hinge meet its usual standards before committing to a release. These hurdles are part of why the company has been slower than competitors to enter the foldable market.

For now, timelines are vague. A release could still be years away, depending on how the design and engineering issues are resolved.

My Thoughts: It feels very on-brand for Apple to wait until foldables are a bit less messy before jumping in, even if that means showing up late to the trend.

Samsung’s new audio cleanup trick

Samsung is reportedly bringing a feature called “Audio Eraser” to its upcoming Galaxy S26 series, focusing on giving users more control over sound in videos. The tool is designed to identify different types of audio—like voices, background noise, or wind—and let users adjust or remove them in real time.

Instead of editing audio after recording, the feature works live, allowing users to tweak sound levels as they capture video. This could make it easier to isolate voices in noisy environments or tone down distractions without needing separate editing apps.

The idea builds on existing AI-powered tools that separate audio layers, but pushes it into a more immediate, on-device experience. As with similar features, the effectiveness will likely depend on how well the software can distinguish overlapping sounds in everyday situations.

Final Note: Feels like one of those features that could be genuinely useful if it works well, especially for casual videos where you don’t get a second take.

Vans, but actually optimized

How Van Upfitting Improves Efficiency for Trade Businesses

Discover how van upfitting improves efficiency, organization, and productivity for trade professionals.

The article looks at how van upfitting—customizing a vehicle’s interior for specific work—can improve efficiency for businesses. By tailoring storage, shelving, and equipment layouts, workers can access tools more quickly and reduce time spent searching or reorganizing.

It explains that thoughtful design can also improve workflow, allowing jobs to be completed faster and with fewer unnecessary steps. For industries that rely heavily on service vehicles, even small layout improvements can add up over time.

Beyond productivity, upfitting can also support safety by securing tools and reducing clutter inside the vehicle. The overall idea is that a well-organized van becomes more than just transportation—it turns into a functional workspace.

Pearson gold heist mastermind pleads guilty

The man described as the mastermind behind Canada’s largest gold heist has admitted to his role in the theft at Toronto’s Pearson Airport. The case involves roughly $20 million worth of gold and cash that was stolen in a high-profile 2023 cargo facility robbery.

According to reports, the accused played a central role in organizing the operation, which involved exploiting security processes to remove the shipment. The stolen goods were part of an international cargo delivery, making the heist both bold and unusually sophisticated.

In court, it was revealed that the motive included paying off debts, adding a more personal financial angle to what had seemed like a purely large-scale criminal operation. The case has drawn attention to security gaps in cargo handling at major airports.

Comment: There’s something almost surreal about a crime this big boiling down to something as ordinary as debt.
