Recycling old tech can free up a lot of space in your home. A recent CNET survey found that 31% of US adults are still holding onto unused old devices, including laptops, because they're unsure of what to do with them. The survey also found that 19%

Can your terminal do emojis? How big?

Emojis are great. They're particularly useful to put in the output of scripts and get some eye catching output. At least provided they aren't overused, just like colour. $ important-command Lots of output... ‼️ Something went wrong! Some more output... But bigger emojis are better, right?

Verizon is offering a free line for 36 months to select customers, but what’s the catch?

Unlike past “free” lines that merely masked multi-line discounts, this BYOD offer appears to be legit. While the main line is free, it still carries taxes and fees (around $6–$10 per month), and after 36 months, you must cancel the line or pay the standard rate based on your total lines.

Low WiFi in a large house can be quite frustrating, particularly when your ISP router is not powerful enough to cover all parts of it.

The New ‘Weapons’ Trailer Promises ‘a Lot of People Die in a Lot of Really Weird Ways’

So far the marketing for Weapons is looking like 2025’s slightly more accessible answer to last year’s Longlegs: freaky and distressing, and promising exponentially more of the same from the feature itself. A first trailer gave a little more insight into the movie’s plot, and a retro-styled website plays up its true-crime angle. Now Weapons is back with a second clip to set the dread-filled mood even more. We see a bewildered teacher (Julia Garner) being blamed for a class of missing kids, with
