VR workouts aren’t for everyone, but for some people they might be the thing that gets them to start working out regularly. Before choosing the right workout app for you, it’s worth identifying your goals. Do you want to get some cardio in every day? Or are you just looking to get out of your […]
First, prep yourself a clean workspace. This can be a dining room table, a cleared-off desk—just any surface big enough for your case to lay flat on its side, with ample room around it for the rest of your components. You’ll also need a Phillips-head screwdriver that will fit the screws on your case. When […]
MC: No. To be totally honest, I am a trained monkey. I just click the button, and then I start waiting for the thing to arrive at my door but- LG: That’s what Amazon wants. MC: That’s mostly what we’re going to be talking about today on today’s show. We’re going to talk about Amazon. […]
This has been an academic year unlike any other. With the backdrop of a global pandemic that shut down most of public life, waking up every morning and logging in to Zoom for class is a resilient and worthy achievement. The young students in your life continued with their schoolwork and perhaps even managed to […]
Even going out for a solo jog can make you vulnerable to potentially dangerous situations, especially for women. The Strava app might help.

Unremarkable and unmemorable. That’s how I’d describe the Zenfone 8, Asus’ latest Android smartphone. That doesn’t mean it’s a bad phone.

A great knife is the cornerstone on which a great meal is built. But if you ask three chefs what makes a great knife, you’ll likely get at least five answers. The truth is that what makes the perfect knife for you will depend on many factors, including your comfort level with knives, the size […]
For something completely different, I tried the Espro P7, which, with those two fine filters, produced a surprisingly clear cup with even fewer fines. It’s like coffee-maker coffee for people somehow forced to make only French press, or for campers too far from an outlet to plug in Mr. Coffee. This “clean cup” isn’t a […]
The weather is getting warmer, and as more and more people get vaccinated, millions of Americans are feeling more comfortable heading to the great outdoors. I asked my WIRED colleagues for their favorite camping picks from this long, strange year. Now that the sun is out, we want to help you get as much fresh […]
However, compared to other top-end laptops on the market now, the Surface’s performance is pretty middle-of-the-road. Using the older Ryzen 4000 series chips is a strike against it now that the Ryzen 5000 series is out. I’ve been testing several laptops with the latest Ryzen chips, and they are faster across the board and get […]
