I’ll be working in ChatGPT and get distracted for a moment. That distraction would make me waste more time than I’d like to admit, and I usually have that “Oh, right. The project!” moment. That’s when I decided to look into ChatGPT Scheduled Tasks; I’d pretty much written it off as just a reminder, but I underestimated it. What surprised me was that ChatGPT could sometimes handle the task itself instead of simply reminding me to do it. After trying it out, I found four scheduled tasks that changed my mind. Set contextual reminders It was simple, but it fixed…
It’s been six years since Dyson launched the OG Corrale hair straighteners, so they are well due an upgrade and what better time to introduce one than when we are all talking about the Dyson CameraJet toothbrush! The Dyson Corrale CoolShine straightens are available now, cost $329.99/ £250 and promise super shiny locks. How is the Dyson Corrale CoolShine different from other straighteners? Unlike anything we have seen in the hair technology sphere before, the Dyson Corrale CoolShine have been designed with a removable cooling attachment. The new straighteners combine flexing plate technology from the Dyson Corrale straightener with this…
Peloton has announced three new treadmills. Yes, really – not just one, but three, because one running machine was clearly not enough. Usually I am a Peloton Bike girl rather than a Peloton Tread girl, but a couple of things in this announcement have made it more interesting, even to me. The company isn’t just enhancing its current Peloton Tread and calling it a day (though it is doing that too). Instead, it’s trying to fix a couple of things that make current treadmills, including its own, feel like a compromise: they take up a lot of room, and running…
The Razer Blade 16 (2026) is already a powerhouse in top-spec form, squeezing Nvidia’s monstrous RTX 5090 Laptop graphics into a chassis sleek enough to take just about anywhere. But I’d never say no to even a bit more performance – especially when no warranty-busting overclocking or voltage adjustments are required. The firm’s Laptop Cooling Pad promises exactly that. It’s been out for a while now, but I only recently got hold of one to see what impact a software update (which introduced a clever Hyperboost mode specific to Razer hardware) would have on frame rates as well as temperatures.…
If you’re looking for the best gifts for travellers (aka digital nomads with a penchant for wanderlust), then you’ve come to the right corner of the internet. Life on the move is easier when your tech earns its luggage space. This year’s picks can turn a cramped seat or hotel desk into a better place to work, play, and switch off. There’s a private cinema you can wear, a portable monitor for proper multitasking, and enough battery power to rescue a hungry laptop. So whether the next stop is Berlin or Bognor, these gifts should keep work flowing – and…
A couple of solar panels, a sunny spot, and a plug socket. It’s certainly an appealing alternative to having people clamber over your roof – particularly if you rent or, simply want to shave a little off your electricity bill while you doomscroll on the latest iPhone. But can you actually use plug-in solar panels in the US? In some circumstances, yes! States including Utah and Colorado have passed laws making qualifying plug-in systems easier to connect. That doesn’t mean every kit sold online is legal to use at your address, mind. The kit and its installation still need to…
Don’t overlook the Renault 4. My biggest lesson after clocking thousands of miles behind the wheel of one over the last six months is that this compact hatchback EV doesn’t deserve to sit in the shadow of its (admittedly awesome) little brother, the Renault 5 E-Tech. Under the skin it’s very similar to its ever-so-slightly smaller sibling, powering a single front motor from a 52kWh battery pack, but has even more heritage behind it thanks to the 1960s original’s incredible three-decade production run. It’s unapologetically French – which is no bad thing – and sits comfortably at the affordable end…
I’ve been using Apple’s Mac Mini for a few days now and here’s my early impressions of the new $899/£899 model. My review model features the standard Apple M6 chip with 12‑core CPU and 12‑core GPU. The M5 Pro is also available at a huge $800/£800 premium) plus I have two upgraded options – 32GB memory and 2TB SSD instead of 16GB and 256GB. These extra options will set you back a cool $/£1200. While I think the extra memory cost is worth it, this is more storage than I would usually need. This model runs the new macOS 27…
Apple may be new to the foldable phone game, but the tech giant has clearly been paying attention to what the competition has been up to for the best part of the last decade. The upcoming iPhone Duo seems to have gotten a few things right at the very first time of asking, addressing issues that Android-based rivals haven’t managed to crack after multiple tries. Does that mean I’m expecting it to be the perfect book-style foldable when it lands on October 23? Not at all. As a regular foldable user – most recently the Galaxy Z Fold8, but the…
Geo-restricted streaming service content is nothing new. Sometimes you can skirt these restrictions with a VPN, but often it doesn’t work the way you want because your account is pinned to a specific region. The streaming company knows you’re not jumping back and forth from New York to London multiple times a night. There is one workaround worth trying, though: change the DNS settings on your Fire TV Stick sostreaming companies can’t block what you’re watching. Unfortunately, to no one’s surprise, it didn’t magically remove any content restrictions in the Netflix app on my TV. However, changing the DNS settings…
