If there's one Google app that has fundamentally transformed the way we deal with life and experiences, it has to be Google Maps.

3D printing is easier to access than ever, and part of that is because great printers are cheaper than ever.

October has barely started, and Paramount+ has already stuffed more than 100 new movies into its library for U.S. viewers. With Halloween creeping up, it's good to know that plenty of those titles are thrillers, perfect for those looking to add a little edge to their movie nights.
AI is currently a legitimate tool for programming and web design, but it has a huge problem—just like literally every other AI-generated thing out there, it has a tendency to produce slop, and there's no magic fix for it. Thankfully, these 3 plugins make it easier to iterate on your designs, which is really all that matters.
Have you ever wanted to test out hardware authentication for passwordless logins? I know I have, but I'm too cheap to spend $30 on a Yubikey. Instead, I decided to take a $6 ESP32 I already had in a drawer and see if I could replicate the YubiKey experience, and I'm surprised by how easy it was.

Dual-booting Windows and Linux can work well, but Windows rarely cooperates. Updates, security features, and default power settings can each disrupt a shared setup. Here are four ways Windows causes trouble for Linux installs, and what you can do about each one.
