If you’ve ever lost footage or had your camera freeze up in the middle of recording, you know how critical a good memory card really is. If you lose all the work you just did, there’s no way you want to do it all again. And you don’t want to lose important memories you took while on a trip or even video game saves. On the flip side, you might just need to expand the memory for a console or a device you’re using. And you can do all this with a new microSD card. We’ve got one in mind, too. And you

The 5 Best Essential Oil Diffusers (and One to Avoid)

I first learned about Pura from a friend whose house always smelled like a high-end boutique under every circumstance. Cooking project, water leak … no matter what was going on in her house at the time, I only ever smelled berries. I have two cats and a multi-sports-playing tween—I knew I needed this.

Tesla’s robotaxi reality check

After years of grand promises about how robotaxis would change the way we buy and use our cars, Tesla finally launched its taxi service. In one small portion of one city. With only a few cars and a few riders. Plus safety monitors in the passenger seat. Caution is a good thing in this industry, but what does all this say about where Tesla’s self-driving efforts really stand?

Factories have used fossil fuels to process iron ore for three centuries, and the climate has paid a heavy price: According to the International Energy Agency, the steel industry today accounts for 8% of carbon dioxide emissions. But it turns out there is a less carbon-intensive alternative: using hydrogen. Unlike coal or natural gas, which release carbon dioxide as a by-product, this process releases water. And if the hydrogen itself is “green,” the climate impact of the entire process will

Methane Pollution Has Cheap, Effective Solutions That Aren’t Being Used

This story originally appeared on Vox and is part of the Climate Desk collaboration. Odorless and colorless, methane is a gas that is easy to miss—but it’s one of the most important contributors to global warming. It can trap up to 84 times as much heat as carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, though it breaks down much faster. Measured over 100 years, its warming effect is about 30 times that of an equivalent amount of carbon dioxide. That means that over the course of decades, it takes smaller a
