Nintendo game director Shigeru Miyamoto and Illumination’s Chris Meledandri announced the news during a Mario Day video, celebrated annually on March 10 (or, more aptly, Mar10).

Co-directors Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelenic will return for the sequel, and Meledandri said on Sunday that they and their team of animators are already “busy at work storyboarding scenes and developing set designs for new environments.”

Getting too many Windows Updates? Here’s a fix

For anyone who uses Microsoft Windows for any length of time, they know that the operating system sometimes get a lot of updates. Sometimes they come at critical times when you're trying to get work done or they come overnight and then you may get a surprise the next day.

Thankfully, Microsoft has given us some options to stop these updates from happening unless WE request them.

If you wish to keep updates enabled BUT get a warning to a pending update, go to:

Settings > Windows Update > Advanced Options.
Look for "Notify me when a restart is required" and click it ON.
That's it.

While that's only one way, it'll help you in knowing when to save your work and let Windows update.

But that's only one way.

To totally disable updates for a set amount of weeks.

Go to Windows Update.
Find "Pause Updates".
Select the number of weeks you do not want to receive any updates.
That's it.

If you use Windows in a business environment, check with your System's Administrator before changing any settings.

Someone asked me the above question and I couldn't answer it. For inquiring minds, the below information came from Microsoft Copilot.

Bitcoin (BTC) is a cryptocurrency, a virtual currency designed to act as money and a form of payment outside the control of any one person, group, or entity. It operates on a decentralized ledger system called a blockchain, which removes the need for third-party involvement in financial transactions. Here are some key points about Bitcoin:

Creation and Distribution:
- Bitcoin was introduced to the public in 2009 by an anonymous developer or group of developers using the name Satoshi Nakamoto.
- Unlike fiat currency (such as the US dollar), Bitcoin is created, distributed, traded, and storedusing a decentralized system.
- It is rewarded to blockchain miners for verifying transactions.
Blockchain and Security:
- Bitcoin’s ledger (the blockchain) is secured by the number of participants in its network.
- Transactions are verified through cryptography and recorded in the public ledger without central oversight.
Purchasing Bitcoin:
- Bitcoin can be purchased via various cryptocurrency exchanges.
- Its value has been volatile, undergoing several boom and bust cycles over its relatively short lifespan.
Denominations:
- One Bitcoin is divisible to eight decimal places, with the smallest unit referred to as a satoshi.
Historical Milestones:
- In 2008, the domain name Bitcoin.org was registered.
- The first Bitcoin block (also known as the “genesis block”) was mined on January 3, 2009.
- Bitcoin rewards are halved periodically; the most recent halving occurred in May 2020.

Bitcoin’s impact extends beyond its financial value—it has inspired the development of many other cryptocurrencies. To learn more about the cryptocurrency that started it all, explore its history, workings, and potential uses! 🚀🌟
