    Google Workspace users will be able to make AI-generated images of people.

    After some controversy, the feature was initially re-launched in early access last year, and now you can use it if you have a Workspace account, too.

    Amazon’s refreshed Kindle lineup sold well.

    In its Q4 2024 earnings release, Amazon said it had “the biggest Q4 for Kindle device sales in over a decade, with a new lineup of Kindles driving a 30% year-over-year increase in devices sold.” During the quarter, Amazon announced the Kindle Colorsoft, an updated Kindle Paperwhite and entry-level Kindle, and a second-generation Kindle Scribe.

    Amazon’s earnings call is at 5PM ET. I’m curious if the company will discuss the potential impact of Trump’s tariffs.

    Commencing operation Snake Eater.

    Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, Konami’s remake of Metal Gear Solid 3, will be released on August 28th, 2025, according to a trailer found on the PlayStation Store. The Ape Escape-themed Snake vs. Monkey mode apparently returns, too.

    I’ve emailed Sony and Konami to ask if this is legit. Sure seems like it, though!
