The New York Times Mini Crossword Is No Longer Free to All: Here's One Way to Play

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-11-18 03:54:29

The New York Times Mini Crossword is a fun and simple younger sibling to the newspaper's legendary regular daily crossword. The Mini Crossword (we publish the answers daily) usually has only about six across-clues and six down-clues, and you can finish it in less than a minute if all goes well. It makes me feel smart, unlike the big crossword, which sometimes makes me throw things. But this Wednesday, some Mini Crossword players were met with a paywall. Going forward, anyone who doesn't pay fo

The best silent mouse of 2025: Expert tested and reviewed

zdnet.com Kayla Solino 2025-11-18 22:25:00

Over the last several months, I've been testing several silent mice options for consideration on this list. The HP 280 is my ultimate sleeper pick for the best overall silent mouse for several reasons. It is super affordable at just $25 but is designed to offer the comfort of much pricier vertical ergonomic options. I have long fingers and a larger hand, so I tend to prefer mice with a little more wrist support and a dedicated grip. The 280 features both and is one of the comfiest I've worked w

61% of US Adults Have Never Tried a Meal Kit. There Are Two Big Reasons

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-11-20 17:00:05

Meal kits have evolved dramatically in the 13 years since Blue Apron launched in the US. Today, nine major meal kit services operate across the country, and their convenient dinner packages have become comparatively cheaper and better suited to people with dietary restrictions. Increased competition has brought variety and consumer-friendly makeovers to meal delivery services, but much of the population is still skeptical. In a recent CNET survey of more than 2,600 US adults, most of those who

Why Apple is fighting legal battles in two countries over 13 cents per iPhone

9to5mac.com Ben Lovejoy 2025-11-20 16:55:27

Apple is engaged in legal battles in both the UK and the US over 4G patents used in its mobile devices. The company has applied for permission to appeal a UK verdict which would cost it an additional 13 cents per iPhone. While this might sound crazy, the company says that very much more is at stake, not just for its own business, but for companies of every size … Three quick pieces of jargon In order to make any mobile device, you need licenses to use a whole bunch of patents.

To figure this out, you're going to need to do some calculations and gather some information. First, you need to know what devices you are going to power. List them all, because forgetting that coffee pot or heated blanket could make the difference between the power station lasting all day, or giving up the ghost on you before the day is over. Specifically, you want to know how much power, in watts, each device draws. This information is usually found on a label on the device. For example, a h

The first thing I noticed about the NordicTrack Commercial 2450, NordicTrack's newest addition to its commercial treadmill series, is the touchscreen. It has a 22-inch HD touchscreen that resembles a desktop computer screen, so it's huge. It also tilts and pivots so you can adjust it for different uses, like if you want to take workout classes on the floor. The treadmill itself is also on the bigger side since it's a commercial treadmill, but it does fold up using its easylift assist feature, so
