Black Friday is as good a time as any to upgrade your home audio setup. You can get the Sonos Era 300, the company’s only standalone speaker with spatial audio, for $379. That’s $100 off what Engadget’s Nathan Ingraham called “a great speaker, whether or not it is playing songs in Dolby Atmos.”That Dolby reference points to the Era 300’s core novelty. It produces spatial audio without requiring additional speakers. (You can use Apple Music or Amazon Music to stream compatible tracks.) Expect those Dolby Atmos tracks to sound better with newer music than older songs remixed for Dolby’s tech.SonosSave…

Unveiled in August and inexplicably released just a little over a month ago, Google’s latest and greatest foldable caught us all off guard with a massive $300 discount a couple of weeks back. Predictably enough, that early Black Friday 2025 deal went away a few days after randomly popping up well before Thanksgiving, and unsurprisingly, the exact same promotion is available once again at Amazon. Yes, the e-commerce giant is selling the Pixel 10 Pro Fold at $300 under its $1,799, $1,919, and $2,149 list prices with 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB internal storage space respectively, and although the new holiday offer…

Five wild female bonobos in the Democratic Republic of the Congo brutally attacked one of their male group mates, disfiguring his face almost beyond recognition, ripping off one of his ears, and biting his testicles in an unprecedented act of violence for the species, scientists report.Researchers arrived a few minutes late to the scene, so they aren’t entirely sure what sparked the ferocious act, which lasted around 30 minutes. However, they suspect the male bonobo may have tried to harm one of their infants, the authors reported Oct. 6 in the journal Current Biology.”We didn’t see the onset of the…

Wireless headphones solve the tangled cable problem and keep your music private in shared spaces, but dropping $500 on AirPods Max makes zero sense when budget options deliver good daily performance. Most people need reliable Bluetooth audio for commutes and Zoom calls without the premium features that justify four-figure price tags. Sony’s WH-CH520 headphones target practical users who want solid sound quality and marathon battery life without paying for luxury branding. Amazon has dropped these already-affordable headphones to $38 for Black Friday, down from their regular $69 price, and creates an all-time low that makes impulse buying almost mandatory. See…

Amazon is hosting a Black Friday sale that covers many of its ereaders. This includes the Kindle Colorsoft, which has been discounted to $170. This thing usually costs $250, so this is one heck of a deal and a record low price.The model came out earlier this year and we gave it a glowing review, calling it “the missing link in Amazon’s ereader lineup.” It’s the first Kindle ereader in color, which makes this thing one of the best ways to read comic books and graphic novels. The pinch-to-zoom feature lets you get closer to details, to make each panel…

I was settling into one of those airport activity tables with high stools and electric outlets at my flight’s gate, waiting for the agent to announce boarding, when I felt a gathering storm at the apex of my butt cheeks. This was my last flight after being away from home on a book tour in May. For the past two weeks, I hadn’t left my chair much, due to all the posting, podcasting, writing, and tense, nervous scrolling that releasing a book involves. But I’d moved just fine from plane to hotel to bookstore. I’d even made a point of…

Black Friday is already delivering some incredible tech deals, but one of the biggest standouts this year is on Amazon: the Pixel 9 Pro is now $350 off, dropping the 128 GB model to one of the lowest prices we’ve ever seen. And after reviewing this phone last year and using it a lot this year too, I can confidently say that this is one deal you should not overlook.Of course, buying a flagship phone isn’t exactly a spontaneous decision, so what makes the Pixel 9 Pro so compelling isn’t just the price. I find the phone refreshingly simple to use. First,…

QUICK FACTSMilestone: Experiment shows mutations arise spontaneouslyDate: Nov. 20, 1943Where: Indiana University in Bloomington and Vanderbilt University in Nashville, TennesseeWho: Max Delbrück and Salvador LuriaIn 1943, a physicist and a biologist published a paper that confirmed one of the central pillars of Darwin’s theory of evolution.The paper, by Max Delbrück of Vanderbilt University and Salvador Luria of Indiana University, described a simple experiment, called the “fluctuation test,” that showed that mutations arose spontaneously in bacteria, rather than emerging in response to “selection pressures.”The question had been debated since Darwin published his classic “On the Origin of Species” in 1859.

While I try to go to the gym regularly, I can’t exactly describe myself as a person with an active lifestyle. My hobbies don’t include stuff like mountain biking or rock climbing. That’s why the best smartwatches for me are usually the regular Galaxy Watch models or Apple Watch Series timepieces. However, I can understand why a smartwatch like the Apple Watch Ultra 2 would be a great pick for an Apple user in love with extreme outdoor activities. Apple Watch Ultra 2: Save $200 on Amazon this Black Friday! $200 off (25%) The Apple Watch Ultra 2 is an…
