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…
USB ports on a smart TV work just like those on a computer, delivering power, charging devices, and even transferring data. And given their function, you can connect bizarre and unexpected gadgets just for the fun of it. 9 Digital Microscope One of my favorite accessories was a phone holder I could attach to my telescope, which stretched the limitations of the telescope’s magnification using my phone’s camera. Attaching a microscope to a smart TV essentially creates the same relationship, but I never would’ve thought of combining the two. My first instinct would be to connect it to a monitor’s…
Do you kick off your day bashing out emails over coffee? How about your afternoons? Wading through pre-sheets and client decks? And when it’s time to clock off, do you unwind by editing your snaps, with some gaming and streaming thrown in for good measure? Sorry to bombard you with questions. If that all sounds remotely familiar, you need a machine that doesn’t force you to choose between power, flexibility, and stamina. You need a laptop that’s built to handle work, creativity, and play – sometimes all at once. Enter Curry’s. It’s stocking a new generation of Copilot+ PCs –…
