The ASUS ROG Flow Z13 (2025) is one of the most interesting new laptops of the year, packing AMD's most powerful hardware inside a 2-in-1 tablet design. It's awesome.

It appears Microsoft is once again playing dirty tricks to attract users to their own services. Earlier this year, they tried disguising Bing as Google to trick searchers, and now
Earlier this month, an alarm sounded—security researchers at GitLab Threat Intelligence discovered a handful of Chrome extensions adding code in order to commit fraud, with at least 3.2 million users affected. But the add-ons didn’t start as malicious. Instead, they launched as legitimate software, only to be later compromised or sold to bad actors.

If your wallet’s feeling lighter this week, you probably already know why.

As announced last week, Microsoft is officially discontinuing the Skype messaging service on May 5, 2025. Apparently, there wasn’t enough user interest to keep the once-iconic video call app alive.

Apple unveiled new 13- and 15-inch MacBook Air models Wednesday, as the company continued its week of Air-themed product announcements. The new MacBook Airs aren’t exactly groundbreaking—it’s no surprise Apple didn’t feel it necessary to save these for
YouTube Premium ain’t cheap at $13.99 per month for ad-free streaming, especially since it seems like YouTube is intentionally making itself worse to get you to pay up. How does $7.99 sound instead?

The AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT looks set to deliver highly competitive mainstream performance at a great price — perhaps too great. We'll need to see what retail availability looks like, but the performance in rasterization, ray tracing, and AI workloads has improved a lot, closing the gap between AMD and Nvidia GPUs.

The new machine is primarily aimed at content creators, so on top of the faster chips, it offers the latest high-speed SSD storage, Thunderbolt 5 technology
AMD has finally done it. For years it's tried to undercut NVIDIA with slightly cheaper, but less capable, video cards like the Radeon 6700 XT and 7900 XT.
Apple's new MacBook Air doesn't try to reinvent the wheel: It still comes in 13- and 15-inch sizes, starts with 16GB of RAM and offers up to 18 hours of battery life. But a few spec bumps — headlined by the faster M4 chip —
I wasn’t impressed by the last pair of Technics earbuds I reviewed. The AZ70W was the first set to carry the iconic turntable brand’s logo after Panasonic relaunched it in 2014. The 2020 model did some things well for $250, but inconsistent audio performance kept them from being
Elon Musk discovered a simple 30-second “fridge trick” that can reverse diabetes, but the discovery has spooked pharmaceutical companies so much they put a $78 million bounty on his head, forcing the Tesla CEO to flee the country. At least, that’s what a collection of AI-generated Facebook ads claim.
Facebook ads depicting deepfakes of Elon Musk and Fox News personalities claiming that the Tesla CEO has discovered the cure for diabetes have been circulating on the platform for weeks. T
YouTube has introduced a new subscription option for viewing with reduced ads compared with its pricey but ad-free Premium plans. This Premium Lite plan is rolling out in the US starting today. It costs $8 per month, compared with $14 per month for Premium. A
