40% Home Depot Promo Codes & Coupons | September 2025

Home Depot goes hard. The company pretty much invented the hardware superstore when it began in 1978, just by being so big. They inflated the neighborhood tool shop into a whole city of lumber, hammers, caulk, power saws, and big rolls of wire. I would know I’m in a Home Depot blindfolded, because of a distinct quality to the air—crisp and particulate, smelling like wood dust and paint and the oiled metal of power tools. The Home Depot smell is buried deep in my childhood, filed somewhere betwee

The King's Quarry: How Louis XVI Went from Hunter to Hunted

Marie Antoinette on the hunt ( Public domain ) One of the most famous diary entries of all time consists of a single word: rien, which is French for “nothing.” It’s what King Louis XVI recorded on July 14, 1789, the day the Bastille was stormed. This entry (or lack thereof) is often cited as evidence of the king’s disinterest in the brewing revolution. The standard narrative about Louis is that he was simply not up to the task of dealing with the forces that threatened his throne. As a second

The CDC Implosion Continues as Staff Stage Unprecedented Walkout

The real-time collapse of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has picked up the pace. Following the government’s attempted firing and pressuring of several senior CDC officials to step down this week, CDC staff staged a dramatic display of support for its departing leaders this afternoon. The action was a direct response to the Trump administration’s recent meddling at the once well-respected public health agency. The staff, which included remaining senior officials, performed a “cla

Thrashing

August 26, 2025 I’ve invested in a new odometer to help my car go faster. Accountability is important, and as a driver I believe the most important thing I can do is set measurable, achievable and inspiring goals for the people pushing my car down the road. I’m never sure what to say to people who… don’t quite seem to realize they sound like this. I think, what chain of reasoning brought us to this? How did we get here? But I think I know how we got here. So, about this link. No disrespect

The Duty-Free Loophole Is Closing. What That Means for You—and Your Packages

Want to buy something online and have it shipped into the US? Well, get ready to pay more for the privilege. Starting Friday, small packages imported into the country will be subjected to a duty. The Trump administration is levying a new tax on all packages coming into the country—regardless of value—starting August 29. This is the latest push in President Trump’s global trade war. The new policy is the result of an executive order issued in July that officially suspended the de minimis import

Google warns Salesloft breach impacted some Workspace accounts

Google now reports that the Salesloft Drift breach is larger than initially thought, warning that attackers also used stolen OAuth tokens to access a small number of Google Workspace email accounts in addition to stealing data from Salesforce instances. "Based on new information identified by GTIG, the scope of this compromise is not exclusive to the Salesforce integration with Salesloft Drift and impacts other integrations,' warns Google. "We now advise all Salesloft Drift customers to treat

Speed-coding for the 6502 – a simple example

Usually clocked at 1MHz, with no hardware support for multiplication or division, and limited support for bit shifting, it is often important to take a step back from an algorithm in order to make it do the same thing, hundreds of times faster. Note: this article doesn’t describe any technological breakthrough or extremely clever new way of doing things. It’s just a real-life example using a little part of an algorithm I made, and where at first, I stopped at step 2 instead of going all the way

After 2 Million AI Orders, Taco Bell Admits Humans Still Belong in the Drive-Thru

Fast food companies have been experimenting with integrating artificial intelligence into their restaurants, from Flippy the burger-flipping robot at White Castle to dynamic pricing at Wendy's. One arena where AI seems to really be struggling, though, is at the drive-thru -- and Taco Bell is the latest to experience AI mishaps at the order box. After taking 2 million orders with AI, Taco Bell has reached one conclusion: we still need humans. "We're learning a lot, I'm going to be honest with yo

There Goes the American Muscle Car

PONTIAC, Michigan—Traveling a fair amount for work outside of major metros requires relying on rental cars. And relying on rental cars quickly teaches you that while you might reserve a standard sedan every time, there is no reason to expect the rental car agency to actually give you the keys to a sedan when you show up at the counter. Eventually, you realize your fate is entirely in the hands of the rental car gods, and the rental car gods are capricious gods. Sometimes, the rental car gods f

Trump administration’s deal is structured to prevent Intel from selling foundry unit

The Trump administration seems intent on controlling Intel’s ability to make key business decisions around its floundering foundry business unit. Intel’s CFO David Zinsner shared new details about the company’s recent deal with the Trump administration, which gave the U.S. government a 10% equity stake, at a Deutsche Bank conference on Thursday, according to reporting from the Financial Times. The deal was structured in a way to penalize Intel if it spins out its foundry business unit, which m

10 Creepy-Cool Items You Can Buy From Guillermo del Toro’s Collection

Guillermo del Toro isn’t just an Oscar-winning filmmaker—he’s a diehard fan of all things horror, especially monsters. He famously has an entire dwelling, dubbed Bleak House, to contain his wonderfully grim collection of art, artifacts, props, and other covetable items, but even someone with del Toro’s generous resources understands the importance of downsizing from time to time. An upcoming auction will serve to give some of his treasures new homes. In a Heritage Auctions press release (with a

The Unforgotten

Open Extended Reactions THEY WERE BOTH SO YOUNG. One would be entering his old age now, with most of a long life behind him. The other would just be entering his senior year in high school, working to fulfill a life of great promise. A vast gulf of time separates them. But nobody knows them now except by memory, so time is also what ties them together. And it is time that tells their story. They were both so young, are both so young still. In the early days of football, President Theodore

Mississippi’s age assurance law puts decentralized social networks to the test

An overly broad age assurance law in Mississippi is leading to arguments about which platforms — Bluesky, Mastodon, or others — offer the best solution for avoiding crackdowns on internet freedoms. The company that makes the Bluesky social app announced last week that it would block access to its service in the state of Mississippi rather than comply with the new age verification law. In a blog post, the company explained that, as a small team, it lacked the resources to implement the substanti

Torrent app unavailable at AltStore PAL following apparent notarization revocation by Apple [Update: Apple statement]

Update, August 28, 11:19 a.m. PT: In a statement to 9to5Mac, an Apple spokesperson said: “Notarization for this app was removed in order to comply with government sanctions-related rules in various jurisdictions. We have communicated this to the developer.” When Apple was compelled to allow alternative iOS app stores in the EU, it adopted the notarization model familiar to Mac developers. This means that if Apple revokes the notarization of a certain app, its distribution and use get blocked, e

Colleges see significant drop in international students as fall semester begins

NPR > Education Classes began this week for students at the University at Buffalo, a public research university in western New York, but there were about 750 fewer international students on campus than expected. The new students who did make it gathered for a welcome from the school's dean of students. "We know you have had to overcome hurdles to be here – especially this summer, with visas," Tomás Aguirre told the assembled students, representing more than 100 countries. "And I just wanted yo

Mosh Mobile Shell

Remote-shell protocols traditionally work by conveying a byte-stream from the server to the client, to be interpreted by the client's terminal. (This includes TELNET, RLOGIN, and SSH.) Mosh works differently and at a different layer. With Mosh, the server and client both maintain a snapshot of the current screen state. The problem becomes one of state-synchronization: getting the client to the most recent server-side screen as efficiently as possible. This is accomplished using a new protocol c

Oh Dear, ‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’

At San Diego Comic-Con 2024, Paramount teased our very first look at Star Trek: Strange New Worlds‘ third season with a clip that proved to be rather baffling. A contextless gag that saw Pike, Chapel, La’an, and Uhura seemingly permanently transformed into Vulcans, the clip immediately sparked discussion about the Vulcan crew’s sudden racially prejudiced treatment of Spock as, well, the extra half-Vulcan among them. What did Strange New Worlds think it was doing making a scene of jokily played
