Amazon and Walmart May Issue Their Own Company-Crypto

Retailers like Amazon and Walmart pay fees to credit card companies every time a customer uses their Visa or Mastercard. And it’s no secret that retailers are not happy with that chunk of change that gets siphoned off. But thanks to the emergence of digital money, these retailers are reportedly itching to get away from the big banks. In fact, they may even issue their own stablecoins, according to a new report from the Wall Street Journal. Amazon’s efforts to develop a stablecoin are still in t

I replaced my Kindle and iPad within hours of testing this tablet - and didn't regret it

ZDNET's key takeaways The TCL Tab 10 Nxtpaper 5G is a full-color, color paper, and ink paper tablet available at Verizon for $239.

Sick of weak Wi-Fi? How I got wired home internet - no Ethernet cable required

Supersmario/Getty Wireless internet connections are convenient, but they're also notoriously unreliable. Nothing proves that point more emphatically than a glitchy video conference call, especially if it's tied to a crucial business meeting. The answer is to run a wired network connection to your home office. Wi-Fi is great for mobility, but a wired connection offers many advantages when it comes to working from home. It's faster and more reliable, with lower latency, all of which matters if y

Show HN: Zeekstd – Rust Implementation of the ZSTD Seekable Format

Zeekstd A Rust implementation of the Zstandard Seekable Format. The seekable format splits compressed data into a series of independent "frames", each compressed individually, so that decompression of a section in the middle of an archive only requires zstd to decompress at most a frame's worth of extra data, instead of the entire archive. Zeekstd makes additions to the seekable format by implementing an updated version of the specification, however, it is fully compatible with the initial ve

iPad Air vs reMarkable Paper Pro: Which tablet is best for note taking? [Updated]

Over the past few months, I’ve had the pleasure of testing out the reMarkable Paper Pro. You can read my full review here, but in short, it gets everything right about the note taking experience. Despite being an e-ink tablet, it does get quite pricey. However, there are certainly some fantastic parts of the experience that make it worth comparing to an iPad Air, depending on what you’re looking for in a note taking device for school, work, or whatever else. Updated June 15th to reflect reMark

Show HN: Seastar – Build and dependency manager for C/C++ with Cargo's features

Seastar Seastar is a fast, extensible build system for C, C++, and maybe soon, Rust and Zig as well. I believe that it should be easy to make, prototype, and iterate upon designs. While C is still one of our most widely used languages, it makes it hard to create programs easily, especially for beginners. Instead, Seastar aims to be more like Rust's tooling with cargo , but supporting seamless compilation across more languages. Running Seastar is very simple to build and run. Assuming you have

Scientists Discover Startling Trick to Defeat Insomnia

Image by Getty / Futurism Studies Insomnia is a curse we wouldn't wish on our worst enemy — and scientists have discovered a startlingly simple lifestyle change that appears to be very statistically effective at preventing it. In a new study published in the journal Sleep Health, researchers from Columbia and the University of Chicago report that eating a full day's serving worth of fruits and vegetables strongly appears to help people sleep more soundly throughout the night. Interrupted slee

I test tablets for a living and this is the Samsung tablet I recommend the most

ZDNET's key takeaways The Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 FE+ is a 13.1-inch tablet for $649. It's a good iPad Air alternative for Android users, with reliable performance, a larger display than the S10+, and an IP68 rating that the iPad lacks; it also includes the S Pen. The price increased by $50 for the base model compared to last year, and the tablet now has a single rear camera rather than the precious dual cameras.

A shortage of high-voltage power cables could stall the clean energy transition

In a nutshell: As nations set ever more ambitious targets for renewable energy and electrification, the humble high-voltage cable has emerged as a linchpin – and a potential chokepoint – in the race to decarbonize the global economy. A Bloomberg interview with Claes Westerlind, CEO of NKT, a leading cable manufacturer based in Denmark, explains why. A global surge in demand for high-voltage electricity cables is threatening to stall the clean energy revolution, as the world's ability to build n

Tern GSD S10 Electric Cargo Bike Review: The Best Little Electric Cargo Bike

In true Pacific Northwestern summer fashion, I have been riding around with multiple cubic feet of wood and soil in the panniers of the test Tern GSD S10. This is the most popular electric cargo bike in my neighborhood, and I personally contributed to its popularity. It's the model of electric cargo bike that I bought to take my kids to school and to carry pallets around the city. Every day, I see parents carting their kids around in Tern Storm Boxes. There are so many that I no longer do an imp

I tested the $390 Lenovo Idea Tab Pro. Here’s why it’s my new favorite budget Android tablet.

Lenovo Idea Tab Pro The Lenovo Idea Tab Pro may not be your first choice for a budget Android tablet, but it's one of the best you can get in 2025.

Shopping for an affordable Android tablet in 2025 is… less than ideal. We’re at a point where Samsung and Amazon are largely keeping the budget tablet market afloat, couple

Former Tesla Dealership Manager Says It's "Game Over" for Elon Musk

Back in May, as Tesla Takedown rallies and anti-Musk vandalism rocked the world, Tesla dealership manager Matthew LaBrot launched "Tesla Employees Against Elon" — an act of protest that swiftly got him fired. We wrote about LaBrot's symbolic act of defiance against Musk's political maneuvers at the time. Now, a fresh tell-all interview with Hard Reset is shining some light on just how drastically things have changed for Tesla over the past few months. LaBrot is, first and foremost, a Tesla sup

Snapseed sprouts its first new growth in years, as major update blooms

Megan Ellis / Android Authority TL;DR Google has rolled out a big update to the Snapseed app for iPhone and iPad. The update refreshes the look and adds a new “Faves” tab. It appears there are no plans to update the Android version. You may remember Snapseed, the photo editing app Google acquired back in 2012. It’s been a while since Snapseed received a big update, but it looks like one just rolled out. The catch is that the update is only available for the iPhone and iPad. Spotted by 9to5G
