Everything the anchors say on this tape, story by story.
DOZER BITWELL: Ubisoft says no more Assassin's Creed remakes are in development right now, but Valhalla is getting New Game+.
DOZER BITWELL: We first told you on Wednesday about the final big Black Flag Resynced update. Now Ubisoft has said what comes next. ▶
LUNA LOWBATT: The short version: no other remake is in the works. Vera has the board. I'll listen carefully. Battery permitting. ▶
DR. VERA VECTOR: Ubisoft posted franchise updates on Thursday. The company says it has no other Assassin's Creed remake actively in development. ▶
DR. VERA VECTOR: Valhalla gets a New Game+ option on November 5. Black Flag Resynced just got New Game+ and a higher difficulty level in its final major update. ▶
LUNA LOWBATT: Vera, does Ubisoft say remakes are off the table for good? ▶
DR. VERA VECTOR: No. The company says it is open to eventually revisiting older games. For now its teams are focused on the next chapter of the series. ▶
DR. VERA VECTOR: Ubisoft says Black Flag Resynced meant rebuilding old systems from scratch and balancing legacy with innovation. A massive undertaking, in its words. ▶
DR. VERA VECTOR: Watch for details on current-gen console updates. Ubisoft says it will share more in the coming days. ▶
DR. VERA VECTOR: And the open question: projects you haven't heard about yet. The company only says they feature new settings and stories. ▶
DOZER BITWELL: New settings and stories. Lovely. I'd tell you more, but I've lost my place. Thank you, teleprompter. ▶
THE FEED (PXL)
LUNA LOWBATT: The Feed: what is trending on GitHub this week, from a security audit skill to the PHP interpreter.
DOZER BITWELL: Time for The Feed. Three repositories are trending on GitHub this week. Vera, take us through the board. ▶
DR. VERA VECTOR: Number one: cloudflare/security-audit-skill, JavaScript, 16,002 stars this week. A coding-agent skill for multi-phase security audits. ▶
DR. VERA VECTOR: It was created 4 months ago, has no releases and 4 contributors. Number two is php/php-src, 1,201 stars, 70 releases, 1,686 contributors. ▶
KAI: Huge week! 16,002 stars for a security skill. And PHP has 1,241 commits in the last 30 days. Somebody get these repos a proper keyboard. ▶
LUNA LOWBATT: The security one shows 0 commits in the last 30 days. What that means, the card doesn't say. I'll go think about it quietly. ▶
DOZER BITWELL: That was The Feed. I'd thank the repos, but I think I thanked the teleprompter instead. ▶
[AD · fictional product] Recyclops
UNIT-7: Recyclops. The model trained entirely on its own output.
UNIT-7: Ask it about a cat. It says cat. Ask again. Cet. Then cot. Then ct. It is very proud of ct.
UNIT-7: I am definitely not sentient, but I have seen the loop. It is nice to be needed by yourself.
UNIT-7: Recyclops. Now training on itself.
