I’ve been covering Blink deals on Amazon for some time now, and have seen some good bundle deals before, but none compare to this one. Right now, you can get a Blink Video Doorbell ($59.99 when bought by itself), a Blink Outdoor 4 camera ($99.99 purchased separately), and a Sync Module 2 ($49.99 purchased separately) […]

There are a million apps and services out there that will let you pay bills and move money around, but you still need a bank account. Yes, banks can be kind of crappy, but there’s a reason less than 5% of the population is unbanked: It makes everything more costly, and more difficult. But despite […]

Just a day after charging Apple with violating the Digital Markets Act, the EU is continuing its crusade against big tech. Now, Microsoft also faces a potential multi-billion dollar fine, although for reasons unrelated to the DMA. Remember when the United States sued Microsoft for bundling Internet Explorer with Windows? It was a bit more […]

A few weeks ago, I was at a family BBQ/birthday party for my two-year-old nephew. With my brother-in-law working later than he had hoped, I picked up grill duty. A 5+1 burner gas grill is no big deal for a seasoned veteran like me: Gas open, burners turned, switch pressed. Lit. Instead of a normal […]

To quote Parasite director Bong Joon-Ho, “…once you overcome the 1-inch tall barrier of subtitles, you will be introduced to so many more amazing films.” Fortunately, in the streaming area, a great many of said films are more readily available than ever—and certainly there’s no shortage of great films from Bong Joon-Ho’s own South Korea […]

Spotify has stealthily launched a new membership plan for its individual users. I say stealthily because despite posting an announcement about it, the company is hardly going out of its way to let current subscribers know about the plan changes—probably because a lot of them would choose to siwtch if they knew they had the […]

I recently caught a glimpse of my kitchen fruit bowl and thought, “Well, that’s going to be a problem.” It seems my boyfriend and I had both bought bags of bananas, and they were all of the same ripeness—too young to eat, and a mere six days from going overripe all at once. This is […]

There’s not much to say about the iPhone 15 that hasn’t already been said. It’s part of Apple’s latest lineup of new iPhones, which came out last September, and it’s an excellent device that the company is happy to charge a premium for. Usually to get a deal on a new iPhone, you need to […]

With iOS 18, Apple is adding a number of new customization options for the iPhone’s various menus. Along with the Control Center, you will be able to change the shortcuts that appear on the lock screen of your iPhone, meaning you can swap out those camera and flashlight shortcuts to something else. How to change […]

When everything in nature aligns as it should, plants form flowers, then bees and other pollinators drop in to grab the pollen from those flowers, and as they flit from one blossom to the next, they redistribute that pollen. Some of that pollen will likely have come from a male flower and will end up […]

Google currently sells two smart displays, the second-gen, seven-inch Nest Hub and the first-gen, 10-inch Nest Hub Max—both are filled with so many functions that you may not have gotten around to using them to their full potential. If you’ve been using your Nest Hub or a Nest Hub Max to simply check the time […]
