Notion integrations offer powerful connections for the productivity platform, but when looking for self-hosted services, many popular apps are noticeably missing. This doesn't mean that integrations with Notion aren't possible, however, especially since the platform allows custom integrations with its API.

As alternatives to Photoshop, Photopea and GIMP couldn’t be more different from one another, despite both making good replacement tools. These two are often found in most lists of Photoshop alternatives, and for good reason. They can offer you different creative tools based on your own needs for your creative projects. While both are free to use, they come from different funding backgrounds and platform availability, too. They could both replace your Photoshop workflow, but which one would be best at it?

The Nintendo Switch 2 is the highly anticipated successor to the Nintendo Switch. Many have been wondering what functionality the next console will have and, more importantly, what games they will be able to play on it. There is no denying that Nintendo has had many popular titles over the years, and some of those have been ported over to Nintendo Switch Online or NSO. Despite adding games from the original NES and Super NES, Nintendo has yet to add any games to NSO that were on its arguably most popular console, the GameCube. Now that the Nintendo Switch 2 is on the way, it is the perfect time for Nintendo to finally stop holding out and add the GameCube to NSO.

Building a home lab from scratch is always an exciting endeavor. It’s a playground for tech enthusiasts and IT professionals. But like any ambitious project, it’s packed with potential pitfalls. I learned this the hard way through a series of missteps and a fair bit of frustration. Allow me to share the most significant mistakes I made while building my own home lab. My goal is to save you from similar headaches and provide a roadmap for a smoother, more efficient home lab building experience.

The Colorsoft is like a souped-up Kindle Paperwhite, but that isn’t such a bad thing.When we reviewed the Kindle Colorsoft Signature Edition late last year, one of our biggest gripes was the e-reader’s initial starting price of $279.99. It’s a high price to pay for an ebook reader, particularly given its smaller 7-inch display and lack of stylus support, but those shortcomings are more forgivable now that the ebook reader is on sale at Amazon and Best Buy for an all-time low of $224.99 ($55 off).At its core, the Colorsoft is really just a Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition with a color screen. It’s the first Kindle to utilize E Ink’s color screen technology, which provides more vibrancy than Kobo’s like-minded Libra Colour — even if the 300ppi resolution is halved in color mode. The resulting contrast and color make browsing and reading books (or comics!) more pleasant and engaging, but don’t expect the kind of glossy, high-res images you might get on a dedicated tablet with an OLED or LCD display.That said, the Colorsoft benefits from all the upgrades you’ll find on Amazon’s newer Kindles, as well as a slew of recent software updates. It features an auto-adjusting front light, robust IPX8 waterproofing, and faster page-turning performance than prior models. You’ll also get up to two months of battery life and wireless charging, not to mention a healthy 32GB of storage and zero ads. It’s the e-reader to get if you want a color screen and want to stick with Amazon.In fact, it’s the only one.

AT&T will cut its autopay and paperless billing discounts in half starting April 24th. In a statement to The Verge, AT&T spokesperson Kyle Loomis confirmed reports that customers enrolled in the program will get $5 off their monthly bill instead of $10 when paying with a debit card.AT&T is also doing away with the existing $5 discount for paperless and autopay customers with a linked credit card. The discount will now only apply to customers who have an AT&T Plus Card from Citi. AT&T will continue to offer a $10 discount to customers who use their bank accounts for autopay.Loomis said AT&T is making the change to “align with others in the industry.” It doesn’t exactly come as a surprise, as T-Mobile, Verizon, and AT&T have all already lowered autopay discounts for customers paying their bills with a credit card, while Verizon halved discounts for more people last year.

Among all the components involved in a PC build, the CPU cooler might be among the trickiest ones to install. Whether utilizing liquid or air, coolers tend to be large, cumbersome pieces of hardware that can be difficult to work around. Whether you're tackling your first PC build or it's just been a few years since you've gone under the hood, it might be useful to have a refresher on what mistakes to avoid.

Nvidia’s G-Assist was originally an April Fools’ prank in 2017 before becoming a real tech demo last year and a functioning AI assistant for RTX GPU owners today. Project G-Assist is now available inside the Nvidia app, and will help to optimize game and system settings, measure frame rates, and even change the lighting on connected devices.G-Assist works as an AI assistant through voice or text prompts, so you can ask questions like “How does DLSS Frame Generation work?” and the assistant will give you a ChatGPT-like output. Where it gets a lot more interesting is the ability to ask G-Assist to optimize games for the best performance or image quality, or have it control the lighting of supported devices from Logitech, Corsair, MSI, and Nanoleaf.You can even ask G-Assist to analyze and optimize your entire PC, so it will detect if a game has a frame rate limiter, whether performance of your GPU is limited, and what you can do to improve overall performance. It can even detect if refresh rates aren’t maxed out on a display and recommend options like overclocking a GPU or lowering in-game resolutions to hit a desired frame rate.G-Assist uses a local small language model that requires nearly 10GB of space for the assistant functions and voice capabilities. The AI assistant works on a variety of RTX 30-, 40-, and 50-series desktop GPUs, but you’ll need a card with at least 12GB of VRAM.G-Assist is available as an optional part of an update to the Nvidia app that also includes new DLSS override options and the ability to adjust display scaling and color settings. You can download Nvidia’s app right here.

Who doesn't love a good multi-monitor setup? After you get into the flow of using two, you get that itch to go into three, four, or even more monitors. Unfortunately, the more monitors you add, the harder it can be to get them wired up. That's why Plugable has introduced the USBC-7400H4, which helps you get everything connected with ease.

Waymo announced that Washington, DC will be its next robotaxi city. The company aims to launch its Waymo One ridehailing service in the nation’s capitol in 2026 — though it acknowledged that it will first need to change the city law prohibiting fully autonomous vehicles without safety drivers. Currently, companies that want to test autonomous vehicles in DC are required to have a human driver behind the steering wheel in case something goes wrong. Tech advocates have been pressing the city council to loosen the restrictions to allow fully autonomous vehicles on public roads. A spokesperson for the DC transportation department did not immediately respond to a request for comment.The Alphabet-owned company’s manually driven vehicles have been spotted around DC since last year. A Waymo product manager told a local news outlet that the company was primarily focused on neighborhoods like Dupont Circle, Foggy Bottom, and Penn Quarter. Waymo has not commented on the size of its service area nor which neighborhoods it is targeting if it launches next year. The Alphabet-owned company’s manually driven vehicles have been spotted around DC since last year.Launching a robotaxi service in the heart of the federal government is a risky move. The feds have largely taken a back seat in regulating autonomous vehicles, leaving it to the states to develop their own rulebooks for safe deployment. Legislation that would dramatically increase the number of AVs on the road has been stalled in Congress for over seven years, with lawmakers at odds over a range of issues, including safety, liability, and the right number of exemptions from federal motor vehicle safety standards. But beyond that, DC is its own city with its own transportation challenges. It has some of the worst traffic congestion in the US thanks to an ever-expanding population and stagnate infrastructure. Waymo hasn’t said how many vehicles it intends to bring to DC. Waymo currently operates its driverless ridehailing vehicles in San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Phoenix. It recently launched a partnership with Uber in Austin, and it plans to expand that deal to Atlanta later this year. It also plans to operate robotaxis in Silicon Valley and Miami. In DC, customers will use the company’s ridehail app, Waymo One, to summon driverless vehicles. Waymo currently provides 200,000 passenger trips a week using the app. DC has seen some autonomous testing before. Cruise, General Motors’ now-defunct AV subsidiary, tested several of its vehicles there. Another defunct company, Ford-backed Argo AI, has also previously tested autonomous vehicles in the district. Waymo markets itself as a safer option than human-driven vehicles. The company has released insurance data that shows its vehicles cause less property damage and fewer bodily injuries when they crash than human drivers.

Everyone is annoyed with spam (and phishing) in their inbox. It clogs up your inbox, wastes space, and requires unsubscribing and filtering. But did you know you should never delete spam messages? The scammers are targeting and unsubscribing, which could also trigger ransomware attacks. Yes, spam can actually be helpful (as odd as it sounds) when scammers target users by improving the safeguards against it. So, instead of just deleting spam, report it instead to help prevent future problems.
