The window to get gifts in time for Christmas is pretty much closed, but there’s nothing wrong with a slightly belated gift. And if the big fella left you some gift cards or green paper in your stocking, a little indulgence for yourself isn’t the worst idea. A great idea for either scenario is Samsung’s Galaxy Watch 8, especially since it’s somehow still at its Black Friday pricing of just $250 at Amazon. This deal is for the 40mm Bluetooth model of the Galaxy Watch 8, in graphite or silver color. The steep price drop for a brand-new 2025 Android…

All monitors have HDMI and DisplayPort to connect to a PC (or even VGA if it’s a really old one). Those are the basics. If you want the latest of these port standards in monitors, you’re looking for HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 2.1.More and more monitors nowadays include a built-in USB hub, which can sometimes include USB-A ports, an Ethernet jack, and more. Once you connect over the upstream USB-C (or USB-B if the monitor’s a bit older), you can plug accessories and peripherals directly into the monitor. That’s particularly useful if your laptop doesn’t have many ports, or if…
I’ve always wondered what it would be like to own a plug-in hybrid, and recently, fate handed me that opportunity. On a recent trip to Vancouver, I rented a 2024 Toyota Prius Prime for nearly two months — the ideal scenario to try out North America’s most popular PHEV.My experience with the Prius PrimePreviously, the words “Prius” and “sexy” were rarely used in the same sentence. However, I think the wedge-shaped Prius Prime introduced for 2023 is much sexier than its frumpy predecessors. The sleek shape also pierces the wind better to improve efficiency. It’s lower to the ground than…

The ability to carry thousands of books without the bulk, access to instant downloads, and the convenience of reading anywhere, anytime, make digital readers like the Amazon Kindle an obvious choice for today’s reader. However, a common issue with many digital readers is that staring at a backlit screen for long periods can be uncomfortable, and no amount of backlighting can beat the glare of direct sunlight. The Kindle Paperwhite solves this. Now available at an significantly reduced price of $160 (20% off on…
The last two decades have seen a revolution in scientists’ ability to reconstruct the past. This has been made possible through technological advances in the way DNA is extracted from ancient bones and analyzed.These advances have revealed that Neanderthals and modern humans interbred — something that wasn’t previously thought to have happened. It has allowed researchers to disentangle the various migrations that shaped modern people. It has also allowed teams to sequence the genomes of extinct animals, such as the mammoth, and extinct agents of disease, such as defunct strains of plague.While much of this work has been carried out…

The Trump administration has issued travel bans that prohibit five European tech researchers, including one former EU Commissioner, from entering the United States. “For far too long, ideologues in Europe have led organized efforts to coerce American platforms to punish American viewpoints they oppose. The Trump Administration will no longer tolerate these egregious acts of extraterritorial censorship,” said US Secretary of State Marco Rubio.That official is Thierry Breton, the former European Commissioner for Internal Markets and Digital Services, who Sarah Rogers called the “mastermind” of the Digital Services Act. Rogers, the Under Secretary of State, said Breton threatened Elon Musk…
