One of the biggest complaints users have with Google TV is the default home screen. It’s cluttered with ads, suggested content, and distracting sections that constantly compete for your attention. And it’s not something you can easily ignore either. Even when you know what you want to watch, you still have to navigate through all that noise just to get there. Thankfully, you’re not out of options. An easy way to get around this is to replace the default experience with something like Arc Launcher. It’s a free, open-source launcher that gives your TV a minimal, customizable interface. Related How…

In today’s hyper-competitive and increasingly dispersed business environment, employee engagement has transitioned from a secondary human resources initiative to a primary driver of organizational success. Engagement is no longer merely a measure of employee satisfaction or workplace happiness; it represents the profound emotional and professional commitment an employee has to their organization and its overarching goals. When employees are highly engaged, they apply discretionary effort, innovate proactively, and become steadfast advocates for their corporate brand. Conversely, a disengaged workforce leads to plummeting productivity, rampant absenteeism, and staggering turnover rates. As companies navigate the complexities of remote, hybrid, and globally distributed…

More than any other streaming service, Netflix has a huge wealth of movies and TV shows to watch. It’s impossible to watch it all, partly because new content cycles in and out all the time. If you don’t act quick, there are some great shows that will be gone before you’ve gotten a chance to see them. Case in point: Your Honor is a terrific legal drama that ran for two seasons on Showtime. Based on the Israeli show Kvodo, it stars Breaking Bad’s Bryan Cranston and it’s leaving Netflix at the end of the month. Your Honor is a…

Fancy splurging out on a new bit of coffee-making kit? The best coffee machines can get pretty expensive, with some creeping up as far as the thousands. I recently used a coffee machine that cost almost $5000/£4000 to see if it could make better coffee! That got me thinking, how much coffee do you actually need to drink in order to justify the espresso machine that’s in your Amazon basket? Whether you’re trying to justify the purchase to your partner or just trying to sleep better at night after buying one, we’re going to work it out. How much does…

Being eight years old, my son doesn’t go anywhere on his own. However, recently, after a football tournament he got separated from me in a sea of children all wearing the same kit. Nothing happened but he was a bit shaken up when he realised the woman he’d been trying to catch up with wasn’t me and I was in a bit of a state trying to push through the crowd to find him. Just normal growing up stuff. It did play on my mind however and made me worry about how big the crowds would be at our upcoming…

Govee has finally launched the latest version of one of its most popular standalone smart lights, bringing an even sleeker design and wider illumination to bathe even more of your walls in colour. The Floor Lamp 3 is also being joined by the Govee Lantern Floor Lamp, which sees the firm head into more neutral interior design territory for the first time. Following a public debut at CES back in January, the Floor Lamp 3 goes on sale today in the US for $169.90, through the official Govee website and Amazon US. I’ve had one in the corner of my home office…

Claude Design arrived and immediately took the world by storm. Word on the street is that UI designers are already changing their LinkedIn titles to “prompt engineer.” I’m joking (mostly). But Claude Design is genuinely impressive. Around the same time, OpenAI upgraded its already frontier-level image generation in ChatGPT with ChatGPT Images 2. It can follow prompts with much better accuracy, and it seems to have fixed one of the biggest problems with AI images: text. NotebookLM, meanwhile, has been in the text-heavy image generation game for a while. It can generate slide decks, infographics, and other visual summaries from…

Are you looking to upgrade your smartphone or trade up to a new laptop soon? This may not be the best time to do it. 2026 is set to be a turbulent year for tech, with price rises expected across the board. Games consoles, TVs, smart home kit and even new cars are set to leave more of a dent in your wallet than they otherwise would. The memory modules used by pretty much every consumer gadget are in short supply, which has pushed up wholesale prices on the remaining production capacity. Manufacturers are now going to pass those higher…

Looking for the best password manager around? We don’t blame you. Forgetting your passwords and going through the tedious motions of resetting them is something we could all do without. Sure, you could use the same password for everything including the best VPN, but that’s obviously asking for trouble. And choosing a secure, unique password for all of your accounts is an option only suitable for those with super-human brains. At least, that’s what we tell ourselves. So unless you actually enjoy impossible CAPTCHAS and jumping through hoops trying to identify pictures of buses, bridges, and bicycles, why not make…
