Google Put a Data Center in Space — NX Tech Tips SHORT 📱 (Oct 31)

Today's vertical Short, hosted by Max — four stories, zero mercy:

1. 🛰️ Google Put a Data Center in Space

Google's Project Suncatcher prototype satellite is online and talking to the ground. First prompt the engineers sent the onboard AI? Write a haiku about being in space. It delivered: "Blue marble below / Data streams in silent grace / Starlight feeds my core." The satellite carries four TPUs — but can only power one at a time for about 20 minutes. A data center with a curfew. (Source: TechCrunch)

2. 👻 Windows 11's Ghost Android Apps

Microsoft retired Android apps on Windows — and they came back as ghosts. The new taskbar Search now shows apps installed on your phone as results, launches them remotely, and mirrors them to your PC through Phone Link. The app never touches the PC. The trick is so new it isn't even in the release notes — Windows Latest had to catch Windows doing it. (Source: Windows Latest)

3. 🗡️ The Nervous Zelda Producer

The Ocarina of Time remake hits Switch 2 on November 5 — and producer Eiji Aonuma says he's "nervous" about it. Sir, you ARE the franchise. Meanwhile, younger devs on the remake team never played the original — a cover band that never heard the song. It ships two weeks before GTA 6, for maximum drama. (Source: IGN)

4. 💀 Steam's Halloween Sale Has a Countdown

Steam Scream Fest is live and ends November 2 — horror games up to 90% off, including Resident Evil 4, Phasmophobia, SIGNALIS and more. Clock's ticking. Buy now, scream later. (Source: lemonwire / Valve's published schedule)
