When Intel unveiled the Arc Pro B70 and Arc Pro B65 GPUs, it also left hardware enthusiasts with a special kind of frustration that's reserved for hardware that exists just outside their reach. Not because they're too expensive (although the Arc Pro B70's $949 MSRP hardly puts it in the impulse-purchase territory), but because they were never meant for the average consumer in the first place.

If you told me a year ago that Nvidia would bring back a 2021 GPU in 2026, I would've assumed something had gone very wrong with the GPU market. And to be fair, that's exactly what has happened. Memory shortages, AI demand, and absurd pricing have completely reshaped what a "budget" or "mid-range" GPU even means today. So instead of pushing newer cards into a broken supply chain, Nvidia seems to be doing something unexpected: reviving the RTX 3060.

I’ve been connected to MS Office software since my school days. Breaking away from the Microsoft 365 ecosystem always felt like a risk. Like most professionals, I was convinced that a paid subscription was the only way to stay productive and compatible. I viewed free open-source software as a compromise, something you use to save money, not to get the best results.

On Wednesday morning, the Supreme Court heard arguments in Trump v. Barbara, a case challenging President Donald Trump's 2025 executive order banning birthright citizenship. Justices seemed skeptical of the administration's argument, but by taking up birthright citizenship at all, they showed how much ground nativists have gained since Trump's first term. The 14th Amendment is quite clear: "all persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside." Trump seeks to overturn this and create a new, effectively stateless American underclas …Read the full story at The Verge.

On the surface, Home Assistant offers a neat control hub for managing smart devices and IoT gizmos. But once you start delving deep into HASS, you’ll notice that it’s an automation powerhouse that can drive your smart living space without requiring you to lift a finger. And that’s just the integrations natively available on Home Assistant.

Since last year, Uber has been offering drivers in a handful of locations - California, Colorado, Massachusetts and New York City - $4,000 to swap their gas guzzlers for electric vehicles. The company must have liked the results because today it announced that it would be expanding eligibility for its "Go Electric" grant to drivers nationwide for the first time. The timing, of course, is everything. Gas prices have been rising at a steady clip since the US and Israel launched their attack on Iran last month. Uber drivers are particularly exposed to rising gas prices, as increased fuel costs directly reduce their take-home pay. But with no …Read the full story at The Verge.

Obsidian is great, but it also seems like a tool that asks for a lot upfront. Before you’ve written a single note, you’re already making decisions about the vault location, folder structures, and which plugins you need. There’s also a whole ecosystem of guides and YouTube tutorials on how to set up Obsidian the “right way”. It can get overwhelming fast. If you’re the type of person like me who gets stuck in setup mode before doing any actual work, this can be a problem.

We obsess over 1% low frame rates, overclocking RAM, and shaving milliseconds off latency; however, the reality is that you can have a $4,000 rig, but if you're hunching over like a gargoyle to see your screen, your user experience is actually terrible.

If you're someone who uses a laptop and is looking to expand your setup, adding a docking station is a no-brainer. You get an assortment of ports, dedicated power, and all at a price that's not going to hurt your wallet.

In mid-March, conspiracy theories swirled claiming Benjamin Netanyahu had been replaced by an AI clone. Though there was no actual proof that the Israeli Prime Minister had been injured or killed, on X this spurred a flurry of posts promoting prediction markets where people bet on whether he would be out of office by March 31st. One newly created Polymarket account in particular caught the attention of bettors: dududududu22, which had purchased more than $177,000 worth of "Yes" shares at 4.7 cents. Surely, only someone with inside knowledge would take such a risky position?"This makes him possible to get paid of $3,779,000 in case of win," …Read the full story at The Verge.

There are plenty of great monitors to choose from, but this one from Alienware seems to get everything right if you're looking for great performance at an affordable price. This 27-inch gaming monitor features a 240Hz refresh rate, 1ms response time, and support for technologies like Nvidia's G-Sync and VESA's Adaptive Sync certification.

If you work across multiple devices, you've almost certainly emailed yourself a link, pasted something into a notes app just to open it on another machine, or maybe even typed out a URL by hand because you couldn't be bothered to find a better way. Clipboard sync between devices is a largely solved problem by now, but sometimes it's nice to just have a simple way to quickly and easily copy text between two devices without any additional software. Sure, Apple has Universal Clipboard, Windows has its own clipboard sync, and third-party tools like ClipCascade let you self-host something, but none of them felt right for the level of simplicity that I wanted
