Imagine my surprise when I opened my email account to find a lovely fresh warning from one of the world’s leading media streaming platforms. That’s right: It’s time to change your Plex password, because it’s suffered a data breach specifically affecting your password, email address, and authentication data—which means your account is in danger of being hacked if you don’t act now. Change your Plex password now before your account is breached It’s time to make a change NAR by Gavin The Plex email that landed in my inbox is titled “Action required: Notice of a potential security incident,” which…
Knowing which the best iPhone used to be easy – you just had to choose the colour and the storage capacity. It was guaranteed to be among the best smartphones on sale. But now, things are not so simple. From Mini to Plus to Pro to Pro Max, Apple’s flagship phones ship in more variants than ever before. And just to muddy the waters further, the mobile maker still sells a few of its former headline handsets from previous generations, as well as the entry-level SE for buyers on a budget. So there’s an Apple smartphone for everyone. The tricky…
There are now three generations of AirPods Pro, and if you’re still clinging to your AirPods Pro 2 like they’re sacred relics, you might be wondering if Apple’s shiny new AirPods Pro 3 are actually worth the upgrade. Both wireless buds are unmistakably Apple, both are loaded with features, and both look like they’ve been nicked from a futuristic dental clinic. But AirPods Pro 3 go a step further. From proper in-ear fit upgrades to double the ANC power and even built-in heart rate sensors, there’s more going on here than just a new name. So how do AirPods Pro…
AirPods are comfortably the best-selling true wireless earbuds in the world and the excellent AirPods Pro 2 and newer AirPods 4 hammer home that advantage. But, given the various price points, deciding are the best AirPods for you is a difficult task – especially when there are so many rivals we consider among the best wireless earbuds on sale. In addition to the super-expensive AirPods Max, Apple actually has four pairs of wireless buds – the AirPods Pro (2nd gen), AirPods (3rd gen), AirPods 4 (with and without ANC) and AirPods (2nd gen) and that’s before you get to its…
Everyone has a comfort sitcom or two they always return to. Heck, some of us (definitely me) binge-watch a select few options in rotation, breaking out occasionally to watch a new film or the latest show everyone is talking about. But as creatures of habit and comfort, we return to the warm, glowing embrace of our favorite sitcoms, where we’re always greeted with open arms. Now, everyone’s list will differ, but these are the sitcoms I could watch forever without ever getting bored. 12 Peep Show Watch Peep Show on Prime Video or Hulu Peep Show is a uniquely British…
Sir James Dyson is a man that needs very little introduction – the inventor who heads up Dyson, present in 85 countries worldwide, has dedicated his life to solving problems and creating often ground-breaking products and becoming a household name in the process. While IFA 2025 was on, I got to sit down with the man himself at the Berlin Dyson Demo Store and ask some burning questions about the company’s new products and what went wrong with some old ones, too. The new Spot+Scrub Ai robot addresses a big issue with robot vacs “When you wash the floor, you…
Some say that motor shows have had their day, but this year’s Munich event is an exception. In fact, IAA Munich 2025 has oodles of new electric car models on offer, with nearly all the major manufacturers represented plus a few less well-known names for good measure. Naturally, BMW, Volkswagen and Mercedes are leading the parade of new cars and electric power dominates, although hot on their heels will be the inevitable slew of new models from China. The show runs right on through 14 September. Here’s what I think is the pick of the bunch so far… BMW iX3…
When most people think of prestige television, their minds probably settle on more dramatic shows like The Sopranos or Breaking Bad. Yet comedic television has also seen a rise in quality over the years, with the landscape expanding beyond network sitcoms with a laugh track into far more experimental outings. Even so, for as popular and easily watchable as comedy can be, there are underrated gems that tend to fall through the cracks. They never really get their due credit. But thanks to the power of streaming, it’s just as easy to discover a show from three decades ago as…
One of the hardest lessons I learned shortly after I started my Plex server was to never ignore organizing your library. It’s one of those tidbits you wish someone would tell you before you start using Plex, but live and learn, right? Having a good foundation beforehand is important and will literally save you hours, possibly days, of backtracking and fiddling. However, there’s one app that was particularly great at not only putting the finishing touches on my library, but it also helped fix cover images, artwork, subtitles, and even the naming scheme. If you’re going to run your own…
The Star Wars franchise has grown exponentially since Disney’s purchase of it back in 2012, but not everything has completely landed with long-time fans. With the conclusion of Andor in early 2025, however, Star Wars carved out its first entry into prestige television. I enjoyed it so much that I have struggled to consume other media within the franchise or even science fiction in general without having to compare it to Andor. Luckily, science fiction television has existed for a long time, and it will continue to exist beyond Andor and its brilliance. In my quest to find sci-fi shows…
