I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve pulled into a EV charging station, seen six charging bays, and still had nowhere to plug in. Not because every bay was occupied by a charging car. Because half of them were occupied by cars that had finished charging twenty minutes ago, the other half are filled with ICE cars, and the other half were broken… That’s the thing about public EV charging – there’s no official rulebook, no laws in place, no driving test question about it, nothing printed on the back of your provisional licence. And yet every regular…
When it comes to speed of travel, commercial flight has regressed since the 1970s. For 27-years it was possible to fly between New York and London in under three hours thanks to a remarkable feat of Anglo-Franco engineering that offered the ultimate in luxury transatlantic travel. The record flight time from JFK to Heathrow was two hours and 52 minutes at an average of 1,250mph. Cruising at 60,000 feet at a speed was Mach 2.04 – more than twice the speed of sound. As a species, we did that! Since the Concorde fleet was retired in 2003, it now takes…
It’s 5am. You kill the iPhone alarm. It’s time to gag down some slimy, raw eggs, scream into the void, and drag yourself outside for a run. Please. I’m begging you. Stop. Because despite what certain fitness influencers might suggest, exercise doesn’t have to painfully take over your entire life. Honest. Fitness gadgets can’t do the hard work for you either, but the right equipment can make that work easier to fit around everything else. And that’s where this feature comes in. None of the products below will magically transform your body without any effort on your part (believe me,…
Some people think the point of a sci-fi novel is to be adapted into a TV show or movie, and there are many such novels that have made the jump from page to screen, like the excellent 3 Body Problem on Netflix. But sometimes, the best thing for a great sci-fi book is to leave it on the page. Such is the case with this modern classic. Get into the Teixcalaan series Hard to pronounce, wonderful to read Credit: Tor Books The Teixcalaan series is made up of two books: A Memory Called Empire, published in 2019; and A Desolation Called…
If there’s one thing I love, it’s travel. Whether I’m off on a weekend trip, a full-blown summer holiday, or attending a launch event, going to new places is amazing. But (and I’m sure I’m not alone here), the travel side of things is far from ideal. Whoever said it’s all about the journey, not the destination, clearly never visited Miami International during Spring Break. So, I tried turning to the top travel tech to solve my woes. I’ve already got noise-cancelling headphones, tablets, travel backpacks, and other gadgets to keep me entertained. What I was looking for was stuff…
Picture the future of air travel: you’re on a plane that hums rather than roars, takes off without the faintest whiff of jet fuel, and lands, leaving nothing behind but a trail of water vapour. Sounds lovely, doesn’t it? Almost too lovely for an industry we more often associate with lost baggage and endless security queues. But will hydrogen and electric planes really play a leading role in the future of air travel, or are they just another pipe dream set to gather dust alongside the jetpack and the flying car? Here’s what we know so far. The hydrogen dream…

You’ve spent a small fortune on a phone smart enough to recognise your face in the dark, a watch that tracks everything from Pilates to padel, and a smart speaker that controls your lights and plays whatever music you fancy, even if that sometimes means Whitney Houston when you say ‘white noise’. And yet there you are, lying awake at 1am, tossing and turning, telling yourself you really need to get to sleep (which, naturally, makes it even harder). Don’t worry, though — there’s good news. Your existing tech is already packed with sleep-fixing hacks you might never have thought…
I can’t recall how many times I’ve opened YouTube to research or study and ended up falling into the algorithm trap that sucks up at least half an hour of my work time. I really need to break this habit — a couple of videos are fine, but YouTube completely immerses you in its never-ending feed. Now, uninstalling YouTube or completely removing it from my life isn’t the solution. Instead, I made a few changes to take back control of my feed, so it reflects my interests rather than becoming a randomized content sinkhole. Related YouTube is blocking non-paying users…
