It looks like Discord voice calls with be available on the PS5 soon. Twitter user advaith, who regular discovers Discord features, has unearthed Discord PS5 voice integration in the mobile app. It looks very similar to the existing Xbox support, but appears to be limited to the PS5.

A Reddit user has managed to get macOS running on a Steam Deck. Using a combination of SteamOS VirtualBox virtualization software, macOS Catalina is up and running on the 7-inch display with performance said to be “normal.” But the animations are laggy according to the Reddit poster, and booting macOS takes minutes.

It’s nearly time to see what AMD has been cooking up for its RDNA 3 GPUs. AMD will hold a livestream for its next-gen GPUs on November 3rd at 4PM ET.

With the main focus on Windows 11, there won’t be many, if any, new Windows 10 features anymore.
