One of the best ways to make people remember something is to get them to laugh. Humor is a great thing that connects people in ways most don't even think about. This is why video game-related memes are often very popular and shared among people all the time on social media. Whether or not it's tied to a game people really enjoy is irrelevant, especially if it makes them laugh. And with so many video games ripe with material that makes for great comedy, the memes that come from them can have people chuckling for a very long time. You just can't keep a good meme down.

We've seen some excellent deals pop up over Prime Day, knocking some of our favorite tech products to their best prices. But if you're looking to stock up on storage and want something reliable, we think this Western Digital M.2 SSD is going to be just the thing. Not only are you getting a massive amount of storage space at 4TB, but this drive is now just $200 for a very limited time, which is $100 below its usual retail price.

The end of Amazon Prime Day is almost here, today’s the last day left to save on some of the best deals we’ve seen all year. The good news? You have until 12AM ET to pick up whatever it is you’re looking for. You can still save on several Verge favorites, too, including noise-canceling headphones, gaming laptops, and a wealth of smart home devices. And if you’re working with a tight budget, there are plenty of deals to be had for $25 or less.For instance, before you take that summer trip, you can save on an AirTag, which can tap into Apple’s vast Find My network. There’s also plenty of affordable smart home gear to choose from, including the newest Echo Pop, an Alexa-enabled smart speaker that’s great for setting timers and playing music. Meanwhile, you can catch up on your favorite shows with the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K. There’s a lot more on sale below… at least for now.Echo PopThe newer Echo Pop is one of Amazon’s smallest Alexa-enabled smart speakers. It offers a unique semisphere form factor and can function as an Eero mesh Wi-Fi extender. Read our review.Where to Buy: $39.99 $21.99 at Amazon $39.99 at Best Buy $39.99 at TargetAmazon Fire TV Stick 4K (2023)The latest version of Amazon’s zippy Fire TV Stick 4K streams in 4K resolution, as its name suggests, and features support for Wi-Fi 6, Dolby Atmos / Vision, and HDR10 Plus.Where to Buy: $49.99 $24.99 at Amazon $49.99 $24.99 at Best Buy $49.99 $24.99 at TargetAnker Nano Travel Adapter (5-in-1, 20W)Anker’s jack-of-all-trades travel adapter packs enough ports to refill your devices during some downtime.

Looking for a new GPU? I bet you've struggled to locate a good deal. Even with many graphics cards discontinued, it's still difficult to work out whether you're getting a good deal and if the GPU is worth paying all that money for. Thankfully, I've found just the Prime Day deal for you if you're on the hunt for a 4K gaming machine. I've enjoyed using the RX 9070 XT from AMD for a while now, and it has been a great workhorse for 4K PC gaming. Sapphire's Pulse Radeon RX 9070 XT is on sale with $80 off its listing price.

As I've begun to play around with ESP32-powered displays like the Cheap Yellow Display (CYD) and the WT32-SC01 Plus, I've mainly been focusing on utilizing ESPHome to do everything. It's what I started with, yet it's not the only option. Another, similar tool that others make use of is openHASP, which is a purpose-built tool specifically for building an interactive touchscreen interface. ESPHome can do it all, but openHASP is fairly narrow in its focus. I decided to give openHASP a try and see how it fares, and to be honest, I'm pretty impressed.

While Notion excels as an all-in-one workspace for organizing projects, databases, and extensive knowledge, it’s far from perfect. For instance, the mobile experience leaves a lot to desire, and Notion isn’t exactly an ideal tool for taking some quick notes on the go or the desktop. I wanted a companion that fills in the gap here. This is precisely where Google Keep shines.

OLED monitors have become a lot cheaper than before, and with burn-in warranties and more advanced panels, it might seem like a great time to upgrade to an OLED monitor. I'm not entirely convinced, however, and have decided to upgrade from my IPS LED monitor to a Mini-LED monitor instead. Mini-LED monitors might not offer per-pixel lighting like OLEDs, but they offer a significant upgrade over LED models without the kind of investment demanded by OLED monitors. And they don't suffer from burn-in or annoying brightness limiters, either.

One of the best parts about having a 3D printer is being able to solve problems that no product on Amazon can quite fix. When it came to my smart home setup, I found myself constantly wanting better mounting options, cleaner cable management, and more elegant enclosures. Instead of settling for generic accessories or trying to hack something together with Velcro and double-sided tape, I started printing my own solutions, either my own designs or those that other makers had developed. Every print made my system feel a little more refined, and over time, these small changes added up to a smarter, more customized home.

It would be a stretch to say that anyone really misses Cortana on Windows 11, though I'd argue it was at least a much more interesting addition than Copilot currently is. The idea of a proper voice assistant on a PC did have potential, it was just severely underutilized with Cortana, and even more so with Copilot. But what if you could add voice commands to Windows 11?

The release of Stellar Blade on PlayStation 5 got a lot of attention from everybody. And not just because of the titillating appearance of the game's protagonist, Eve, who fights her way through waves of enemies while looking beautiful. Stellar Blade was praised for its fast-paced combat system and challenging boss battles that look spectacular. The game is an action-adventure from developer Shift Up for the PS5 with many cinematic moments that kept players coming back for more. Rather than falling under the pressure of scrutiny for its unapologetic sexiness for the lead character, Stellar Blade managed to gain commercial and critical success among those who played it.

Summer road trips are among my favorite memories, but they also come with their own challenges. Keeping things organized, staying cool, and making tech more accessible all matter a lot more when you're on the road. I’ve used my 3D printer for more than just fun and games. It’s helped to solve several of those little travel annoyances, and the right designs have made a noticeable difference. These five gadgets travel with me now, and I wouldn't leave without them.

Prime Day is always a great time of the year for those who shop online for different products through Amazon. Much like what we see with the Steam Summer Sale, gamers can find a number of great deals on video games across multiple platforms. Whether you're looking for a new game to play or trying to pick up something you missed, it's a great idea to check out what sales on games are going on for Prime Day. You never know what you might find at a great price.
