Your dog might hear something outside before you do, but barking doesn’t always tell you what’s going on. If you want a clearer way to keep an eye on things, it’s worth giving your dog a break and setting up one of the best outdoor security cameras. Unlike basic CCTV, the best wireless cameras can spot, record and react to movement around your home. They stream clear video straight to your phone and save clips online so you can check them later. Some are even smart enough to tell the difference between a cat and a real intruder – and…
The Discover Weekly playlist is one of my favorite Spotify features—but I can’t pretend it’s always spot on. Old music tastes locked into the algorithm can easily upset the week, and that’s without getting into the absolute curveball oddities sometimes served up. So, while I love Spotify Discover Weekly, these are the changes I’d like to see to make it even better. 5 Some User Input—Just a Little Part of the wonder of Spotify’s Discover Weekly is that it pulls from your listening taste profile to create a unique playlist packed with new music. For me, it means a weekly…
Last month, I stared at a 1,200-word blog post about an idea I wanted to write about and felt unsure. The thoughts were good, but the structure was a mess. That’s when I discovered reverse outlining with ChatGPT that turned my fuzzy draft into a clear, compelling article. Now I use this method for different projects, from writing articles to creating presentations. What Is Reverse Outlining? Reverse outlining works backward from your completed draft to reveal what you actually wrote versus what you intended to write. Unlike traditional outlining as a notetaking tactic, which happens before writing, reverse outlining strips…
Introduction Honor just fired the latest salvo in the ongoing foldable phone slimness battle. The new Honor Magic 5, launching today in China ahead of an expected wider rollout in the coming months, sets the new standard for book-style folders at an incredible 4.1mm when open. Yet it hasn’t skimped anywhere on the spec sheet to achieve it. The successor to the Honor Magic V3 arrives with the full-fat version of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, a trio of flagship-grade rear cameras, and one of the biggest batteries you’ll find in any phone, let alone a folding one. It’s skinnier…
Get the cream and strawberries out of the fridge, because it’s almost time for Wimbledon to take to the court. This year’s tournament takes place from Jun 30–Jul 13, with play starting from 11am BST every morning. Here’s how to use streaming services to watch the tennis. The likes of Emma Raducanu, Carlos Alcaraz, and Coco Gauff will all be attempting to take home the titles. But if you can’t rub shoulders with celebs in the royal box, here’s how to watch all the Wimbledon action wherever you are. How can I watch? How to watch Wimbledon in the US…

The trouble is, there are almost too many options out there, and sifting through them all to choose the one that’s best for you can be a bit of a slog. Fear not though, for we’ve done all…
It’s not every day you get a choice of around sixty different motors to drive, many of them the best electric cars on the market. GTEST Alsfeld 2025, held not far from Frankfurt and currently in its fifth year, had just that to offer last week – and EVs were in just as much demand as the V8 super cars. Queues for the three-motor, 1000+ bhp Lucid Air Sapphire and latest super quick Chevrolet Corvette regularly snaked around the event. Both are entertaining for obvious reasons, but there were plenty of alternatives that would be much easier to live with…
Everyone has to grow up sooner or later – or so I’ve been led to believe. Those gamer-grade RGB strips and illuminated wall panels that were the epitome of cool in your teens and twenties apparently won’t fly now you’ve settled down with a partner and kids. But that doesn’t mean colour-shifting smart lights are totally off limits. Govee has been paying attention to modern interior design trends for its refreshed floor lamp line-up, and the headline act is a proper head-turner even before you switch it on. The Uplighter Floor Lamp is a gloriously minimal “three in one” freestanding…

The playlist updates every Monday, adding tracks that the streaming service’s algorithm thinks you’ll like. Spotify generates various different playlists each…
When I canceled my subscriptions to big streaming services, I braced for boredom. Instead, I ended up with a more streamlined setup and found myself actually enjoying what I watched. Letting go of the streaming giants made me realize what platforms and services I truly value. Why I Opted Out of Netflix, Prime Video, & Disney+ Subscription-based streaming services were one of the best developments to make entertainment more affordable and convenient. Before Netflix, we had to pay for every single movie or TV show we wanted to watch. Renting DVDs, buying box sets, and signing up for expensive cable…
