Just a few months ago, Claude users felt somewhat like a niche community. The tool was primarily talked about by developers only, and that was because of the tool’s excellent coding capabilities. And then somehow, the stars aligned for Anthropic and everything turned in their favor. Suddenly, Anthropic is refusing to sign a deal with the Department of War to allow their models to be used for autonomous training, OpenAI is openly agreeing to that very claim, and thousands of users are flooding to Claude. I’ve been using Claude since when you’d need to explain what Anthropic even is when…
Summary Mobile PiP is now available globally for all YouTube users as of April 29. On the free tier, the feature was previously limited to US residents. PiP still isn’t background play — your screen must stay on, and music playback remains locked behind Premium. YouTube just got a lot better for free users — as of April 29, picture-in-picture on mobile is now available to non-Premium users globally. This also means there’s one less reason to pay for YouTube Premium, a subscription that is very much a love-it-or-hate-it kind of service for many. Related This free web app turns…
Netflix loves to promote its own original shows. And why not? It has a lot of good ones, including top-tier police procedurals like Mindhunter. But Netflix also has a ton of licensed content that comes and goes from the streamer, and some of it is just as good as anything produced in-house. And some of it is like Prodigal Son, which may not be technically as good as the best originals Netflix have to offer, but is so entertaining and demented it doesn’t really matter. Prodigal Son deserves a second look Never a dull moment in this family Prodigal Son…
When Xpeng suggested I try a hands-free autonomous drive around the roads close to the Beijing Autoshow I was keen, but also rather nervous. I’d already witnessed so much chaos on those multi-laned highways that being behind the wheel with jetlag and little experience felt borderline nuts. A lack of lane discipline is par for the course when driving around Beijing. However, a definite upside was being given the Xpeng P7 Ultra to try. This super cool electric car comes from a company that proudly boasts it is a tech business that just so happens to build vehicles. The P7…
In 2019, The Mandalorian debuted on Disney+. It was the first-ever live-action Star Wars TV show, and people loved it immediately. The action was good, Grogu (aka Baby Yoda) instantly became an adorable icon, and there was a lot of novelty in watching a Star Wars story on the small screen. That novelty wore off pretty quickly over the next few years as Disney gave us more Star Wars spin-off shows like The Book of Boba Fett, Ahsoka, The Acolyte, and Skeleton Crew. The Mandalorian plugged on, but it felt less special now that Disney had flooded the zone. Now…
Christopher Ward has just launched the most significant overhaul of its Sealander collection in five years. We’ve got two watches, the Sealander GMT and Sealander Automatic, comprehensively re-engineered, but instantly familiar. This isn’t change for its own sake. It’s the result of years of listening to customers. During the launch, Mike France compared these new watches to the Porsche 911 or Range Rover, which are slowly perfected over the years whilst keeping their distinct character. I’ve been wearing and reviewing Christopher Ward watches for a decade. I’ve watched the brand evolve from producing somewhat confused homage pieces into something genuinely…
OLED is the display technology my obsessive eyes can’t get enough of. I bought my first “Organic Light-Emitting Diode” TV back in 2015, and I’ve never looked back. Though I was once terrified of OLED burn-in, modern panels’ built-in pixel cleaning cycles make the threat of permanent image retention far less likely than before, meaning there’s really no downside to owning an OLED screen now. Alright, OLEDs normally cost more than LCDs, but that’s because, as a technology, the former is superior in almost every way. Sure, LCD/LED screens can get brighter than OLED panels, yet when the best LG…
For the casual music listener, certain audiophile terms have a connotation that might not accurately reflect their true meaning. You hear the term “lossless” and immediately think of a high-fidelity listening experience. Seeing that an audio file is “compressed” might make you think that it’s available at a lower quality than the lossless file. In actuality, compression is merely a method of reducing file sizes by getting rid of redundant data. It has little to do with the quality of the data compressed, since lossless compression techniques allow the original data to be perfectly restored. The only major uncompressed audio…
Apple Watch logs your sleep stages, monitors your heart rate through the night, and even keeps track of your skin temperature. But almost none of that works out of the box. Spend 10 minutes in the right menus, though, and the Apple Watch will become a much better sleep companion to you. Here are the first settings I think are worth changing. 1. Set up your schedule Once sleep tracking is turned on (Apple Watch doesn’t actually track your sleep unless you tell it to), build a sleep schedule. In the Sleep section of the Health app, tap Full Schedule…
I try to get my hands on all the latest health tech. Fitness trackers, blood testing kits, you name it. So when I was invited to view a smart mirror, I was certainly intrigued. The Longevity Mirror by NuraLogix gives you one of the most advanced looks into your health that you can get at home, and I’ve never wanted a device quite so badly. The premise sounds like something out of Star Trek, which is probably why I grinned like a maniac while trying it at CES 2026. You peer into this unassuming mirror and let it scan your…
