wired.com Martin Cizmar 2025-11-28 15:30:23

If you are looking for the best side-sleeper mattresses, welcome. You’re in good company, as many of the WIRED Reviews team are also side sleepers. So are most Americans. The numbers vary across studies and depend on how rigidly you define “side sleeper,” but between half and three-quarters of people sleep on their side for at least part of the night. If you're a side sleeper, you know how crucial it is that your bed keeps your back aligned while the hips and shoulders get some cushioning. Othe

zdnet.com Elyse Betters Picaro 2025-11-29 00:28:00

Elyse Betters Picaro / ZDNET I started noticing something very annoying at the beginning of the year: I'd set my iPhone alarm for 7 a.m., only to sleep right through it. At first I assumed it was my mistake -- maybe I'd accidentally left the ringer volume all the way down. But after double-checking that, even switching off vibrate and cranking the volume all the way up overnight, the problem persisted. Somewhere between frustration and desperation, I installed a third-party alarm app to try an

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2025-11-29 09:50:59

James Gunn’s Superman was pushed out of the top five at the box office this past weekend, marking the beginning of the end of its box office run. It’s been a good one, with over $330 million in the U.S. so far and another $250 million worldwide. It’s the highest-grossing Superman film ever, domestically not adjusted for inflation, and now the journey takes its next step. Gunn took to social media Tuesday to announce his DC Universe film will be available on digital August 15. That’s this week.

iOS 26 brings back the iPhone calculator’s clear button

iOS 18 featured a major redesign to the Calculator app, including fancy features like Math Notes. Those changes included adding a back button to the keypad, replacing the traditional C/AC button. This was so frustrating for some, the real hard-core Calculator users I guess, that The Atlantic published an entire column when iOS 18 shipped, decrying the button’s removal. Apple has seemingly taken those complaints onboard. With iOS 26, the Calculator once again has a dedicated C/AC button. Apple

But what really had them stumped was a heavy iron chain on the canal bottom. After various attempts, they hooked the chain to their dredger. That did the trick. A firm pull removed the chain and the block of wood on the end of it. The gang took a well-earned break for tea. The tea bre
