This is why I use two separate ChatGPT accounts

Calvin Wankhede / Android Authority I’ll admit it: I’m a bit of a recovering AI addict. While I’ve had mixed feelings about AI from the start, as someone who spends a lot of time lost in thought, I’ve found it can be a useful tool for ideation, proofreading, entertainment, and much more. Recently, I’ve started scaling back my usage for reasons beyond the scope of this article, but for a while, I actually had two paid ChatGPT accounts. I know what you’re thinking, and you’re right, it’s a bit e

Anthropic tightens usage limits for Claude Code — without telling users

Since Monday morning, Claude Code users have been hit with unexpectedly restrictive usage limits. The problems, many of which have been aired on Claude Code’s GitHub page, seem to be concentrated among heavy users of the service, many of whom are on the $200-a-month Max plan. Users are only told “Claude usage limit reached,” and given a time (typically within a matter of hours) when the limit will reset. But with no explicit announcement of a change in limits, many users have concluded that the

Mint Mobile’s annual unlimited plan is now 50% off for the first year

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR For a limited time, you can get Mint Mobile’s Unlimited plan for 50% off. You’ll have to pay $180 upfront, but that works out to just $15 a month. Overall, this is a solid deal, but there are a few drawbacks, like lower network priority and no in-store customer service. Mint Mobile is known for its annual plans that offer access to T-Mobile’s network at a fraction of the price of postpaid, but its latest promotion is on a whole other level. The T-Mo

The 30th-anniversary PS5 controller will be available again for a limited time

You have to be a PS Plus subscriber if you want to increase your odds of getting one, though. In a world of flashy limited-edition video game consoles, the 30th anniversary PS5 hardware Sony released in September 2024 came off as remarkably refined, which might have been why it was so hard to actually buy. If you missed that original drop, you'll have another chance to order it, according to a Facebook post on the official PlayStation Facebook page. Sony is doing a limited restock of the 30th A

Is Google Fi a better value than Visible in 2025?

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority For years, I’ve considered Visible the best value in the US wireless market, thanks to its low pricing and generous data allotments. Even better, its Plus and Plus Pro plans come fairly close to matching Verizon’s postpaid speeds. Of course, one of its biggest advantages can also be a downside: it’s owned by Verizon. While this is comforting for former Verizon subscribers turned off by constant price increases, not everyone wants to use a brand directly owned

Best Family Phone Plans for 2025

Tesla’s first Robotaxi rides kick off in Austin, Texas

The June 22 launch of Tesla's robotaxis in Austin, Texas, actually occurred. It's a tentative first step for the company, however: a human "Tesla Safety Monitor" is accompanying the first riders.

Most of the early riders appear to be pro-Tesla users, with a company mention in their social media bio or a Tesla c

T-Mobile Debuts New Prepaid Plans With 5-Year Price Guarantee

We Did the Math: Trump Mobile Is a Bad Deal for Consumers

When the Trump Organization announced its new Trump Mobile cell service and gold colored T1 phone -- complete with an American flag on the back -- it raised a lot of questions. While most of them focused on the numerous mistakes and typos on the Trump Mobile site -- some of which have been fixed -- other errors and questionable policies, like calling RAM storage, not identifying the handset's processor or the fact that you can't get a refund for the T1 phone raised several flags for us. Even the

T-Mobile’s new prepaid plans look great on paper, but is there a catch?

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR T‑Mobile is shaking up its prepaid offerings with three plans, ranging from $40 to $60 per month for one line.

Earlier this year, T-Mobile unveiled its ne

Games Workshop Just Can’t Stop ‘Horus Heresy’ Scalpers
