The birthday card is generated with a prompt and can be created in one of six art styles.

Got a suspicious UPS text? Don't reply - it might be a scam. Here's how to tell

Elyse Betters Picaro / ZDNET I've been anxiously expecting a package from UPS. That's why a text I received the other day caught my eye. Claiming to be from UPS, the message said that the carrier attempted to deliver the package on June 27, but the delivery couldn't be completed.

GOP wants EV tax credit gone; it would be a disaster for Tesla

arstechnica.com Unknown 2026-02-19 21:00:55

The Republican Party's opposition to tax credits for electric vehicles has stepped up a notch. As its members in the US Senate add their input to the budget bill that came from their colleagues in the House of Representatives, among the changes they want to see is a faster eradication of the IRS clean vehicle tax credit. The tax credit provides up to $7,500 off the price of an EV as long as certain conditions are met, and the language from the House would have given it until the end of the year.

How and Where to Buy Used Camera Gear to Save Money

Beware! Buying used camera gear is addictive.

Finding the lens or camera you want at a lower price is great, but even better is finding older, discontinued models that can give that retro look with no editing required.
