Luckily, HP has another banger batch of bargains to peruse with its own Labor Day Sale. Right now, you can snag a new Windows laptop for desktop for as low as $400 direct from HP, with larger…

Beginning September 1 at 11:30 a.m. ET (8:30 a.m. PT), MIT is offering a course on “COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2 and the Pandemic.” The course’s lectures will be livestreamed every Tuesday and are free to the public. (Only enrolled students can ask questions, but everyone can watch.)

I love my smart speaker—as much as one can ever love a piece of privacy-stealing technology that only exists to gather information about you, I suppose—but that doesn’t mean I don’t find many things about it creepy, in a dystopian sort of way. And one of the things I find creepiest about Alexa is the fact that if you…

Flu shots are already available in many places, and as we’ve noted, it’s especially important to get your flu shot this year. (You don’t want to have COVID and the flu, nor do you want to catch the flu and seek testing and care because you don’t know whether it might be COVID.) So is it time? Go for it now if you…

Over the past few months, we’ve written about mortgage refinancing several times—and for good reason: New Freddie Mac data shows 30-year fixed-rate mortgages have dipped below 3% again. These rock-bottom mortgage rates have inspired crowds of folks to consider scoring a cheaper rate on their existing mortgage.

There’s a stunningly wrong statistic being passed around, saying that the CDC “admitted” that only 6% of documented COVID-19 deaths were actually from the virus. This is wrong, and is the kind of thing that you can only conclude if you don’t know how death certificates work. The deaths were all from COVID, and about…

Nature knows best when it comes to, well, most things. If you’re looking for an answer to how to stay cool in the heat, protect yourself from pathogens or form long-term friendships, other living organisms have probably already found a solution—and AskNature.org is compiling them for you.

Those living in the northern hemisphere have a pretty exciting astronomical week coming up. Between the full moon, a meteor shower and the opportunity to get a glimpse at Mars, there is plenty to see in the night sky over the next several days. If school has already started—especially if it is taking place at…

I rarely reheat leftover pizza, simply because I love cold pizza so much. But this morning I woke up vaguely hungover, and that pair of cold, two-day-old Domino’s slices just didn’t seem that appealing. They were dry and kind of hard (I had not wrapped them up that well), and it was clear they needed a little heat…

Coming as a surprise to no one, 2020 has also brought with it a particularly intense wildfire season. So even if you’re not living somewhere that could be impacted by an “extremely active” hurricane season, you’re not in the clear in terms of natural disasters occurring during a global pandemic. At the moment, there…

The world lost a great actor this year, one who brought life to a remarkable range of remarkable Black figures. Chadwick Boseman died Friday, August 28 after a four-year battle with colon cancer—a battle that was kept from the public throughout the filming of his most popular work. The Howard University alum was an…

While there’s a growing push for more financial literacy in schools, most kids still learn about money at home. Research shows kids may understand the basics of personal finance as young as seven years old, so you can start teaching them early. One way is by allowing them to spend money under your supervision with a…

First, our kids decided it was exciting to watch other kids “unbox” new toys or other items. Now, watching other people play video games—or do, basically, whatever—live online is the height of entertainment. That’s why the live-streaming platform Twitch has grown in popularity; it is primarily used for live gaming…

Apple agreed to settle a class-action lawsuit alleging the company falsely advertised its Powerbeats2 earphones as having a durable sweat and waterproof design. Per the terms of the settlement, Apple has to pay $9.2 million to back to customers, and it’s time for you to get your piece of the pie for your 2014-era…

Would you leave your family for three years to go on a mission to Mars? Normally that would be an easy no, but I haven’t been alone since March 11, so the prospect sounds... slightly attractive. If nothing else, I may at least enjoy the experience vicariously with Away, a new Netflix series premiering Sept. 4.

Grinding your own spices is one of the easiest ways to improve the flavor of your meals. Grinding them as you need them means they last longer and taste better, and whole spices are often significantly cheaper per ounce than the little jars of pre-ground at the grocery store. But whether you use a mortar and pestle or…

To say that we could use a break right now is a massive understatement. And sure, it’s been nice not having to do our usual commute, there’s also something incredibly exhausting about spending all day interacting with other people exclusively online. If you keep dreaming of packing up an RV and spending a weekend…

One of the best parts of learning a new language is discovering words that we don’t have in English. Many of them describe a specific feeling or mindset—like schadenfreude—that we’ve experienced, but have never had a word to capture it. Some of these words are so accurately able to put a name to a feeling, that…

If you’ve already read your way through your bookshelf after spending months at home, you might be looking for something new. Maybe you’re usually into historical fiction, but don’t know to go about picking something from another genre. There are the usual ways, like getting recommendations from friends, getting…

If you’re someone who enjoys a good expletive, you may have found yourself in the position of unintentionally including one in an email—or at the very least, have wanted to. Depending on where and with whom you work, that may be frowned upon, or even automatically trigger an email surveillance system, if your company…

For the past few months, we’ve spent quite a bit of time outside in the evenings, taking in the night sky. We’ve had a few memorable space-related moments this summer—including a once-every-6,000-years comet and a bunch of meteor showers—and it has been something free to do and look forward to during a period when it…

With so much competing media coverage—between the pandemic, the police violence against people of color, the upcoming elections, a particularly active hurricane season—it’s a lot to take in. At the same time, though, you still might want to be aware of what’s happening in the world. If you’ve found yourself …

I’m the kind of guy who, on a hike, will trip over a cactus because I wasn’t paying attention. I run my earbuds through the washing machine, scratch up my sunglasses, and drop my phone while jogging. And as someone who hates even the smallest signs of wear and tear, my clumsiness is often at odds with my ability to…

Tired of getting told off in Steam chats? Sick of seeing words, phrases, or political statements that make you wonder why you even bother using chat rooms to begin with?

Rumor has it that if you swallow chewing gum, it will stay lodged in your gut for seven years—a bezoar minus the magical poison-curing properties. Of course, as we’ve told you before, this isn’t true. But that doesn’t mean you have license to swallow your gum willy-nilly—or spit it on the ground, for that matter. The…

Caregiving is a burden under normal circumstances—and for many families, the pandemic has only made things more difficult. A recent AARP study found that almost one in five Americans provide unpaid care for another adult. The same percentage reported high levels of financial strain from caregiving, and it’s easy to…

When someone we know—or even a stranger we counter in the grocery store or on the bus—is clearly in distress, our first reaction is often to try to comfort the person. Whether it’s with words or offers of help, we don’t want to see someone going through a hard time. Also, people who are sad and upset make us…

Anise is a dark, dangerous, nihilistic flavor. Maybe it’s because I’m used to drinking and seeing other people drink absinthe at the local goth bar, or maybe it’s because absinthe was illegal in the US until 2007 (the year I turned 21), but it does not surprise me that this anise-forward libation has a decidedly bleak…

The other day, I randomly came across a post I wrote way back at the beginning of April when we were just 2-3 weeks into the pandemic. It was titled, “If You’re Struggling to Parent Right Now, You’re Not Alone,” and it reads now like a time capsule of grief. It brought me instantly back to how long, stressful, and …

The podcast revolution has led to many of us subscribing to dozens of podcasts—and if you’re anything like me, you found yourself with a buffet problem: You’ve put way too much on your plate. More than you could possibly consume. Our feeds are bloated with series we no longer listen to and incoming episodes add to a…

Picture-in-picture mode is coming to iOS 14 (soon-ish?), but when it does, it probably won’t be available for the one video app you likely use more than any other: YouTube. That will change soon, too—YouTube is rolling out support for picture-in-picture mode right now—but odds are good that you aren’t going to be able…

Zachary Shakked is a 24 year-old, self-employed iOS app developer who sets his own schedule. “I typically sleep in, no alarm clock, wake up around 9 or 10, eat breakfast (usually overnight oats or eggs and toast),” he explained over email. “I usually do a lot of grazing—I eat when I get hungry. I absolutely pound…

Sometimes the best hacks are the tiniest ones; a thing so helpful and obvious in hindsight that you really should have thought of it yourself. And maybe you did (good for you!). But if you, like me, had not yet thought to hand your child a stress ball when they log into their classroom Zoom meetings, now is the time…

Colleges from the Ivy League to two-year schools have moved all or some of their instruction online this year. (Eh, you know why). This can feel extra unfair for students who’d been looking forward to, say, living in a dorm or asking for help from the cutie sitting next to them instead of, like, their dads.

Fifty-seven years ago today, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. stood on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial to deliver his enduring “I Have a Dream” speech, closing out the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. This afternoon, another March on Washington will take place in the same spot—this time featuring members of some…
