No Kings, Just Water

gizmodo.com Matt Novak 2026-03-16 16:10:02

It was a lovely day for a protest until the cops decided to riot. Millions took to the streets on Saturday for No Kings Day, nationwide protests in cities big and small, timed to provide counter-programming for Donald Trump’s own military parade in Washington D.C.—an embarrassing spectacle that coincided with the president’s 79th birthday. Los Angeles, the second largest city in the country, had its own No Kings protest downtown that saw tens of thousands turn out. And it was incredible to witn

Soundcore ANC Headphones Are Now 14x Cheaper Than AirPods Max, 87K Reviews Make Them Amazon’s Choice

It’d be nice to always be able to afford the best things in life, but sometimes they’re simply not worth it. After all, why spend $200 on something when half of that, or even less, will still get the job done well? One of the places where it’s important to keep this in mind is when it comes to how you listen to music.

Gardyn Indoor Hydroponic Garden Review: Better Growing Through AI

I'm in the midst of putting together a buying guide of indoor vertical gardening systems, and the Gardyn—the 30-plant Home 4.0, to be exact—was the first tester to arrive at my house. I had it unboxed and set up within a couple of hours, lights on and water pump running. I'm already a pro! I thought. Sure enough, within a couple of weeks, all of Gardyn's proprietary seed-filled yCubes had sprouted, and a couple of weeks after that, I was harvesting bowlfuls of herbs and salad greens. Even thoug

The Night Shift Might Be Harming Women More Than We Thought, Study Finds

Asthma is a chronic respiratory disease that often causes sudden and intense shortness of breath. The disease impacts around 339 million people worldwide, and in the U.S. nine people on average die from asthma every day. Researchers in the U.K. have found that women who work night shifts are more likely to have moderate or severe asthma than women who work during the day.

On the southeastern coast of Puerto Rico lies the country’s only coal-fired power station, flanked by a mountain of toxic ash. The plant, owned by the utility giant AES, has long plagued this part of Puerto Rico with air and water pollution. Before the coal plant opened Guayama had on average just over 103 cancer cases per year.

Linux kernel WireGuard can go 'fast' on decent hardware

I'm used to thinking of encryption as a slow thing that can't deliver anywhere near to network saturation, even on basic gigabit Ethernet connections. This is broadly the experience we see with our current VPN servers, which struggle to turn in more than relatively anemic bandwidth with OpenVPN and L2TP, and so for a long time I assumed it would also be our experience with WireGuard if we tried to put anything serious behind it.

But fear not: the game is now available for pre-order at $70 for the standard version. With more new games costing $80, there were fears that Borderlands 4 would follow this trend.
