Your smart TV might be the heart of your home entertainment, but did you know that its internet connection makes it vulnerable to malware? If you notice slow loading or strange pop-ups, it could be more than just a glitch. Unexpected Pop-ups or Ads That Don’t Belong Malware-infected smart TVs may display intrusive pop-ups, often on the home screen, inside system menus, or even right after booting. These ads typically promote shady antivirus tools, fake streaming platforms, or gambling services that clearly don’t belong on television. What makes them so concerning is how closely they resemble real system notifications or…

Some watches feel made for summer – the Tudor Black Bay 54 Lagoon Blue is one of them. I’ve been wearing it for a week now, and I didn’t want to take it off (and neither did my wife). It’s comfortable, stylish, and surprisingly versatile. It works by the pool, at dinner, or walking around town. The 37mm case size is a big part of that. I’ve got fairly small wrists (16cm), and the Black Bay 54 fits just right – not too big, not too chunky. It also looked great on my wife’s wrist. In fact, Tudor’s own photos…

From Jade Empire to Cyberpunk 2077, the very best action role-playing games (RPGs) feature a masterful blend of satisfying real-time combat, memorable characters, a rich narrative, and deep, rewarding progression whether you play on console or elsewhere. These games will leave your digits sweating as you battle against legendarily epic bosses, deploy your silver tongue in fiendish dialogue skill checks and stomach some tough moral choices. However, bountiful treasures await those who have crafted an adept character build and honed their reflexes, abilities and decision-making to surgical precision. One of the greatest sci-fi RPGs, System Shock 2, hits its 25th…

ChatGPT has become predictable. Agreeable. Boring. It just kept agreeing with me—even when I’m clearly wrong. Then, by accident, I found an AI that does the exact opposite—and I’m hooked. I Can’t Stand ChatGPT Calling Me a “Genius” ChatGPT has unediably been declining. Every time I’d reply with my opinion, ChatGPT would gush back, “You’re absolutely right!” If I caught a mistake in my previous messages, “Brilliant catch! This shows that you really understand your work!” It was cute for the first five seconds. By the hundredth compliment, I was ready to scream. There’s a reason people constantly try to…

Laptops aren’t just laptops. They’re powerful tools to help us work, create, and play, wherever we are. But they’re not all made equal. Enter the latest generation of Copilot+ PCs with  Intel® Core™ Ultra processors – all of which come supercharged with powerful AI features that are transforming how we write, call, browse, and create. And unlike some flashy tech fads that promise the future but deliver frustration, these notebooks truly deliver. Whether they’re transcribing your notes in real time, or reducing background noise on an important call, they’re quietly doing clever things without you even realising. Each one of these…

Speedball Monkey Cannon SWOS Car Lemmings Engine 2! Or something. If you ever used an Amiga back in the day, prepare to feel old, because Commodore’s masterpiece just turned 40. Back in the late 1980s and early 1990s it was a beast of a machine, with its 16-bit processor, custom chips for graphics and audio, colour mouse-based UI (take that, Mac Plus!), and enough RAM to make all the 8-bit micros green with envy. Advertising at the time suggested the Amiga was the ideal business machine, or perfect for creative endeavours. But of course everyone just wanted to play games.…

Getting one of the best watch winders is an essential investment for any automatic watch enthusiast. If you own one or more self-winding timepieces, you already know they rely on your wrist’s movement to stay ticking. But what happens when your favourite watch spends more time in its display case than on your wrist? That’s where a watch winder comes in. The right winder not only keeps your watch wound and ready to wear at a moment’s notice, but, arguable, also helps maintain the accuracy of its timekeeping by stopping the delicate lubricants from drying out. From sleek single-watch designs…

Being a “cord cutter” and streaming all your TV entertainment was supposed to simplify things, but nowadays there’s a truly bewildering number of networks and streaming services vying for your hard-earned subscription money. Everyone wants your cash, and as a result there are loads of upcoming TV shows arriving in the remaining months of 2025, designed to tempt you into either subscribing for the first time or renewing your monthly payment. 2024 treated us telly addicts to some truly superb series, from the epic historical drama of Shogun to the retro-futuristic, ultra-violent hijinks of Fallout. Not to mention the soaring…

Good tech doesn’t need to cost a lot of money, and in particular, you can get plenty of amazing headphones without burning a hole in your pocket. But while some aspects aren’t deal-breakers, you should never compromise on a few key areas. 1 Build Quality Rather than the price, I use the term “cheap” to discuss quality. I don’t think a lower price necessarily means something won’t last very long; I’ve paid over $200 for headphones in the past that haven’t lasted a year. Still, build quality is non-negotiable when considering which budget headphones to buy. Determining the lifespan of…

I’ve tested far too many robot vacuums. And as much as I love the machines, mopping often leaves something to be desired. When I’ve been testing robot vacs, they’ve often struggled to mop up stains on hard floors. That’s why autonomous dust-suckers are starting to arrive with roller mops. Not only does iRobot’s latest Roomba have one of these new mops, it also has a clever piece of tech to protect your carpet. When robot vacs mop your floors, they often also make a soggy mess of your carpets in the process. But the new Roomba Max 705 Combo has a…
