The Musk of Mishaps
Long-time readers will no doubt remember that I haven’t exactly tip-toed around Elon Musk when it comes to his mission, apparently, to tank Twitter. While just a few years ago, I might have been talking him up when it came to his mission to send people to Mars. SpaceX has revolutionized the aerospace industry with…

Rise of the Machines: Should We Be Worried about AI?
Italy sure is. OpenAI has been forced to take ChatGPT offline in Italy after the Data Protection Authority not only banned the chatbot but also launched an official probe into the AI to sniff out any potential breaches in privacy regulations. Although our friendly neighborhood Skynet-makers over at OpenAI have stated that they’re working to…

Is tech the solution for better sleep?
If you’re anything like me, getting the most out of your sleeping schedule can be rough. We’re all busy. None of us have enough hours in the day. And so one of the (unfortunately) most common things on our schedule to take a hit is our sleep. The thing is, sleep is incredibly important. If…

Alienware Dethroned?
One of the biggest bits of news to come out of CES for pixel-pinchers and display geeks like me is news concerning the continuing story of QD-OLEDs. In my discussion about the best monitor out there, it was hard to come away with a conclusion other than: QD-OLEDs are what to watch out for. While…

Getting to the Bottom of the Massive Layoffs in the World of Tech
It is amazing how quickly we have gone from “no one wants to work anymore” to seeing record-breaking layoffs. From the outside, it looks as though no one who has ever so much as recorded a day in the life or Instagrammed before 6pm is safe. Even (or especially) if they’re working for one of…

All about CES 2023
There’s a lot of pop and flash when it comes to the Consumer Electronics Show. Concept cars that will never hit the road, visual experiences that aren’t coming to the consumer any time soon, and tech that while cool is totally impractical, all abound. On the other hand, some of the most interesting things about…

The Best and Worst Flagship Camera of 2022
The funny thing about the best and the worst smartphone flagship camera of 2022 is that… they’re the same camera. The iPhone cameras are, and have always been, crowd pleasers. In fact, it’s not really a stretch to call the full iPhone package a crowd-pleaser. They’re hyper-successful, extremely user-friendly, and they even score pretty high…

Best Tech of 2022
It’s that time of the year again: time to look back on all of the innovations that made us actually want to fork over our hard-earned, massively-inflated, cash. The thing is, when it comes to 2022, product reveals were just as likely to disappoint as they were to wow. We’ve talked about how underwhelming the…

Are Wearables Making a Comeback?
Most of us remember Google Glass, although what we probably remember is that these smart glasses didn’t stick. They weren’t very cool looking, they weren’t very functional, and with a steep pricetag of $1,500, there weren’t too many people willing to shell out to get in on the ground level of what could have been…

What to Actually Get Someone for the Holidays
The problem with gifting, and I’ve noticed this for several years now, certainly isn’t that there aren’t enough options, and it isn’t even that there are too many options. On the contrary, it’s the fact that everything is so easy to get now that potential gifts necessarily tend to fall into one of three categories:…
