    Post your Twitch clips right to TikTok.

    Twitch launched the ability to edit vertical clips in its clips editor in May, and starting this week, you’ll be able to publish those clips directly to TikTok from the editor. Seems like a handy way to save a few steps.

    Apple is going to encrypt the titles of Voice Memos stored in iCloud.

    Apple already encrypts the actual recordings, but with iOS 17, iPadOS 17, and macOS Sonoma, the titles will be encrypted too, according to an Apple support document (via MacRumors).

    As a result, Voice Memo titles on devices that haven’t been updated to those operating systems might look a little unusual. Per Apple:

    Because of this additional encryption, when you update one of your Apple devices to iOS 17, iPadOS 17, or macOS Sonoma, your devices that you haven’t yet updated—with older versions of Voice Memos—may display the date and time of the recording (for example, “2023-08-11T07:53:31Z”) as the title, rather than the previous title of the recording.

    Apparently, last night’s major Xbox leak was Microsoft’s fault.

    That’s what the FTC says, anyway. As reported by NBC News:

    Douglas Farrar, director of the FTC’s office of public affairs, told NBC News that “Microsoft was responsible for the error in uploading these documents to the court.”

    That goes a step beyond Farrar’s post on X that said that the FTC was not responsible for the leak.

    Squid Game in VR.

    Netflix’s hit TV show has been adapted into a high-end VR experience called Squid Game Virtuals that you’ll be able to try at Sandbox VR locations. I think the show was intense enough, so I’ll probably pass on the VR version, but if you want to check it out, it’ll be there to tide you over ahead of season two.
