The Hollywood Reporter says that Apple is working on a movie based on the Oregon Trail computer game. It’s apparently in “early development,” according to THR, but could feature musical numbers? This movie could be amazing or awful.

Pro, Pro, Pro.
Insomniac has released patches adding PS5 Pro support to Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 and Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, and both updates add new “performance pro” and “fidelity pro” graphics modes and toggles for ray tracing. The studio didn’t share screenshots or video alongside the updates, so we’ll have to wait and see if the improved graphics are worth the cost.

Another tiny new reason to use your Vision Pro.
Safari will support spatial photos and videos starting later this year, PetaPixel reports. That means you’ll be able to see photos and videos with depth if you’re browsing a website that builds support for the feature — though, of course, you’ll need to be using a Vision Pro, which may not be selling very well.

The FCC is reviewing the quality of customer support from internet and phone providers.
FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel, in a statement:
We can and should expect consistent, transparent, and helpful customer service from the communications companies that provide so many services that are so vital in our day-to-day lives. No one should get stuck in a doom loop trying to cancel a subscription or just get a human being to help resolve their service problems.
Let’s hope it leads to the eventual removal of those doom loops.
