These are the best iPad deals right now, just in case iPadOS 26 made you rethink things

A short while ago, I was browsing Apple deals on Amazon (as one does) – and something stuck out to me. High-end iPad Pros, particularly 12.9-inch models, are surprisingly cheap. I saw M1 models with 1TB and cellular for under $700. Given the recent iPadOS 26 overhaul that makes the iPad much more Mac-like, I figured these deals would be worth a share. While renewed iPad deals are the focus here because of their affordability, new iPad deals are also mentioned at the end. Renewed M1 iPad Pro de

How to Shop Like a Pro During Amazon Prime Day (2025)

Amazon Prime Day is arguably one of the most confusing shopping holidays in existence: It’s not even a “day” anymore, as last year the event spanned 48 hours. It includes some great deals—Amazon promises “millions of deals”—but the displayed discounts are often misleading, and while it’s advertised as a members-only event, some deals are available to people who don’t subscribe to Prime. Add in the frenzy of limited-time Lightning Deals and you’ve got a recipe perfect for spending too much money.

Gaming VC activity settles into a new normal in Q1 | Pitchbook

In the first quarter, gaming VC activity may have finally settled into a new normal — though it’s a leaner, more selective market, according to an analysis by PitchBook.

As early-stage investments continue to shrink, investors grow increasingly discerning, and the M&A and exit environment remain muted, there are still bright spots: investment surged into back-end gaming infrastructure and AI-powered

Tesla Dealership in Oregon Gets Shot Up, Drawing FBI Scrutiny

The FBI and local police are investigating after gunshots shattered windows at a Tesla dealership in Oregon on Wednesday morning—the latest potential sign that Tesla’s CEO, billionaire-turned-“bureaucrat” Elon Musk, is stirring discontent throughout the nation.
