The best laptops are more powerful than ever, and that means most people won't need a desktop computer in 2024. Hooking a laptop up to an external monitor, docking station, and a good set of peripherals will do the job as good or better than having a dedicated desktop PC. But what if you only want to use your laptop, specifically a MacBook, with external monitors? In that case, the display only gets in the way. Enter the wonderful world of "headless" MacBooks. In other words, laptops with the display ripped off. There are surprisingly a handful of reasonable situations where it makes sense to remove your MacBook's screen, but the biggest and most obvious one is when your display is broken or cracked.

Over the years, games that exist only in audio have taken players into entirely new worlds in which there’s nothing to see and still everything to do. These games have huge accessibility implications, allowing people who can’t see to play an equally fun, equally immersive game with their other senses. And when all you have is sound, there’s actually even more you can do to make your game great.On this episode of The Vergecast, we explore the history of audio-only games with Paul Bennun, who has been in this space longer than most.

Apple announced the all-new M4 processor alongside the only device sold with the chip, the 2024 iPad Pro. This marks the first time Apple has launched a new processor with a handheld device and not a Mac as well as an M-class processor instead of an A-class. What this means is the new iPad Pro launching later this month will be one of the most powerful Apple devices, aside from the Mac Pro of course. I owned an original iPad, which launched in 2010, and haven't had another tablet since. Watching the iPad Pro launch has made me reconsider this stance.

Did you miss out on the news this week? If you did, there were some really good parts for Apple fans as the company announced several products during its Let Loose event. But even if you're not interested in new iPads, we still saw a ton of cool Raspberry Pi projects. So, here are all the cool news stories we saw this week.

Both Nvidia and AMD offer utilities that let you relive your favorite in-game moments, be it an unbelievable 1v1 that you may have pulled off against your foes, or simply just your teammates' fumble. AMD GPU users can take advantage of the AMD Adrenaline software, whereas those with an Nvidia graphics card can rely on the ShadowPlay features offered within the GeForce Experience software to capture screenshots, record gameplay, and stream their gaming sessions online.

Network-Attached Storage (NAS) systems are a godsend when it comes to storing and sharing large chunks of data with all your devices. Most NAS enclosures have more hard drive bays than even a gaming PC because you may require a lot of storage capacity depending on your workload. Heck, even if you don't need plenty of HDDs for your day-to-day tasks, you can still run some extra hard drives in RAID mode to improve the overall read/write speeds and protect your data from drive failure and corruption.

Ugreen makes a ton of products for keeping your devices charged, as well as docking stations and hubs to help connect your peripherals. But power banks are where the brand is most at home, and the aptly-named Ugreen 100W 20,000mAh Power Bank recently landed on my desk for review.

The Lenovo Legion Go has come a long way since the software it first released with last year. There have been countless updates and improvements to the software experience, and while it's still not perfect yet, it has improved leaps and bounds.

(If you’re new here, welcome, send me links, and also, you can read all the old editions at the Installer homepage.) This week, I’ve been writing about iPads and LinkedIn games, reading about auto shows and typewriters and treasure hunters, watching Everybody’s in LA and Sugar, looking for reasons to buy Yeti’s new French press even though I definitely don’t need more coffee gear, following almost all of Jerry Saltz’s favorite Instagram accounts, testing Capacities and Heptabase for all my note-taking needs and Plinky for all my link-saving, and playing a lot of Blind Drive.I also have for you a thoroughly impressive new iPad, a clever...

If you have a lot of pictures, messages, and files that you don't want to lose, backing up your devices is crucial. For iPhones, this process is very simple. There are two ways of going about it: you can either create a full backup on your computer or just use the iCloud backup feature. Using your PC and Mac to back up iPhone data is a longer process, so we'll be concerning ourselves with the iCloud approach.
