This compact laptop dock streamlined my workspace - and it's buy one get one

ZDNET's key takeaways The Baseus Nomos NU1 Air Spacemate is on sale for $79. It's a compact docking station that's ideal for both Windows or macOS users on the go. Unlike its predecessor, however, it only supports two monitors at 4K resolution instead of three.

The most otherworldly, mysterious forms of lightning on Earth

Our atmosphere is like one big electrical circuit: Thunderstorms are the batteries that charge it up, and lightning is the current flowing through it. On the ground we see evidence of this circuit when lightning cracks and strikes the ground, or when it lights up deep inside a thundercloud, but high above the clouds lies a secret electrical zoo full of sprites, elves, and jets. These fantastical terms refer to light displays called transient luminous events or TLEs that occur in Earth’s upper a

I Found the Best Way to Stop Mosquitos This Summer, and It's Not a Spray or Candle

Longer, hotter summers mean one thing: longer, itchier, angrier mosquito seasons. And if June's sizzling heat waves are any preview of summer's dog days, you're gonna need more than good vibes and a flickering citronella candle to make it through. I was playing it fast and loose with the usual bug defenses: sprays that smell bad and taste even worse and candles that burn out faster than your will to be outside. Then I met my new summer MVP: the Thermacell. It's a compact, affordable, bug-repell

Lenovo’s Legion Go S With SteamOS Is the Only Real Alternative to a Steam Deck

2025 For the last several years, most of us thinking about buying a handheld PC have heard the refrain “just get a Steam Deck.” The reasons are two-fold: one, the OLED version at $550 is the cheapest of its class, and two, it’s so damned easy to use thanks to SteamOS. No other company has come close to offering similar bang for the buck—until now. At $600, Lenovo’s Legion Go S with SteamOS is a superior handheld for on-the-go gaming compared to the Windows version released earlier this year, w

New benchmarks show SteamOS outperforming Windows 11 on Lenovo's handheld PC

Serving tech enthusiasts for over 25 years.TechSpot means tech analysis and advice you can trust That's called progress: SteamOS started life as a lightweight Linux-based system built for Valve's Steam Machines that never really picked up steam (pun intended). Now, it powers the Steam Deck and various other handhelds. New benchmarks show that the gaming OS outperforms Windows 11 on similar hardware. A recent Ars Technica report tested five demanding PC games on Lenovo's Legion Go S handheld, r

I'm Done With Citronella. This $35 Device Keeps Mosquitos at Bay Without the Odor

Longer, hotter summers means a longer mosquito season. If June's heat waves are any indication of what's to come, you better have a plan for bugs. I was winging it with fickle citronella and stinky bug spray until I discovered the Thermacell -- an affordable bug repellent diffuser that has kept my evenings almost completely bite-free since I started using it. The Thermacell works better than any mosquito repellant I've tried. David Watsky/CNET Massachusetts-based Thermacell makes a line of dev

Games run faster on SteamOS than Windows 11, Ars testing finds

Nearly a decade ago, Ars testing found that Valve's "Steam Machines"-era version of SteamOS performed significantly worse than Windows when SteamOS's Linux game ports were tested on the same hardware as their Windows counterparts. Today, though, Ars testing on the Lenovo Legion Go S finds recent games generally run at higher frame rates on SteamOS 3.7 than on Windows 11. The performance advantage is yet another way that Valve's upstart OS is differentiating itself from the "default" Windows inst

Maria Diaz/ZDNET Have you ever found yourself in a thermostat tug-of-war?

Mosyle announces AccessMule to solve a major blind spot in SMB security

One of the most common blind spots in small business security is access management for various company resources. Today’s IT teams are moving fast (and often understaffed), solving customer problems, and juggling shifting responsibilities as the business grows and evolves. Many SMBs also don’t have a dedicated IT team. They might be fixing things by committee or just trusting that vendors have these problems solved. Behind the scenes, there’s usually little visibility into who still has access t
