Nothing’s first B-series phone is also skipping the US

Nothing is shaking up the branding of its cheapest phones, following up last year's Phone 3A Lite with a new Phone 4B. Combining design elements of the 4A and 4A Pro, it follows Nothing's previous cheaper handsets in skipping the US market. The company already uses the "A" branding to market its che...

America’s greatest idea is still under threat

The United States of America recently turned 250 years old. What a spectacle! The fireworks were amazing, and millions of proud people celebrated across the nation - even around the world.

Five questions for Dr. Rubin, who’s armed with a mic and a bowtie

Bullshit is cheap but truth is expensive. Anyone with half a brain cell can post wild misinformation that goes mega viral, which wastes the time and expertise of highly trained people who feel an obligation to inform others of the truth. Today I want you to meet one of those highly-trained people, D...

I spy

I've long argued that Hollywood has simultaneously set and ruined our expectations for smart glasses. But after binge-watching two seasons of Netflix's A Man on the Inside, this is perhaps the first time I've seen Hollywood, perhaps inadvertently, illustrate the biggest cultural problem with smart g...

The DJI Osmo Pocket 3 lookalike is down to $329

Initially, I was going to tell you about a good deal happening on the DJI Osmo Pocket 3, which is down from the $500 it’s sold at most of the year to $378 at multiple retailers. But there’s a better deal happening on a nearly identical portable camera, the Xtra Muse, which is $329 (roughly […]

Can Partiful keep the party going?

One hundred dollars will buy you 8 pounds of glitter; 10 Domino's pizzas; 406 miniature disco balls from Temu; or 100 cans of Coors Light. For a friend's birthday party one year, Ayla D'Silva spent $100 on sour candy and made a "sour candy salad." Even sweeter was that she didn't have to foot the [&...

Some of the nation’s rich are letting AI teach their kids

Most Americans don't trust AI. It's proven that it doesn't know what safe toppings for pizza are. People don't even want to listen to AI music. But none of that matters for some of America's wealthy, who are turning to AI to teach their kids instead of traditional schools. Companies like Forge Prep...

Mr. Lif’s Emergency Rations EP is post-9/11 hip hop at its most daring

There was a period in the early aughts when Definitive Jux (nee: Def Jux) seemed like it was going to be the future of hip hop. While the label featured plenty of experimental, boundary-pushing, and politically minded acts, Lif stood out as the most "conscious rapper" in the traditional sense. It wa...

Infuriating Google commercial imagines the founding fathers embracing AI

"Group project, but make it 1776." That's how a new commercial for Google Workspace opens. And things only get cringier from there.

The Sourdough Sidekick automates the boring bit of baking

Baking sourdough bread is inherently old-fashioned, relying on natural fermentation and wild yeast instead of the simple, predictable commercial stuff. So it might sound anathema to bring a gadget into the mix. The trick to the Sourdough Sidekick - backed and branded by King Arthur flour - is that i...

How Keurig saved — and ruined — your coffee

Before Keurig, the coffee in your office was almost certainly terrible. Old, burned, made by someone who would rather poorly eyeball than properly measure. Just altogether gross. After Keurig? You could make your own coffee, a cup at a time, exactly when you needed it. The single-cup brewer was an e...

Vizio accidentally made the best dumb TV on the market

When I first started testing Vizio's 65-inch Mini LED Quantum TV, I thought the big story was that Vizio was back and that it had a quantum-dot TV for under $398 - the cheapest on the market. Vizio's been pretty quiet since it was acquired by Walmart in 2024, so putting out a TV with […]
