As a VPN Expert, These Are the VPNs I Recommend for NFL Streaming

I remember a time when all I needed to do to watch NFL football was to flip on my television and tune to one of four or five channels. I’d throw a couple of logs on the fire and settle in for a full slate of Sunday NFL programming without needing to decipher how to watch the games I wanted to watch. These days, it seems like there are dozens of available options for streaming NFL games, with things getting increasingly complicated every year as additional streaming services enter the fray to sec

11 Great Horror Movies to Stream on Prime Video Now

It's a fantastic achievement and a must watch.

Sand and Deliver: We Raced Across Dunes to Find the Best Beach Wagon

The family beach day. Nothing but blue sky, crystal waters, and beaming smiles. Unless you’re the packhorse responsible for maneuvering a mountain of gear from the parking lot to the perfect spot on the sand. What you need is a high-quality beach wagon. Also known as a festival or shopping wagon (or trolley), these collapsible, all-terrain carry-alls live in the trunk and make it possible to transport everything you need for a day at the shore or a weekend camping, in just one trip. They’re als

I switched to this YouTube client and I’m never going back

Nathan Drescher / Android Authority YouTube has been a part of my life since its early days in the late 00s. It’s no secret that today’s YouTube is a far cry from what it used to be. YouTube was free back then; free from subscriptions, free from ads, even free from terrible video suggestions. It was raw and real. Now when we open the app we’re bombarded with pop-ups and ads and the algorithm is awful at surfacing stuff we want to watch. So like many of you, I went searching for a replacement.

Android 16’s support for external keyboards blew my mind

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority It’s been years since I last tried to pair a Bluetooth or USB keyboard with my Android phone. After being a physical QWERTY proponent for years and hating on touchscreen typing, I wholly but slowly embraced pecking on a glass surface. There were a few times I wished I had a keyboard for my Android tablets, but it wasn’t frequent enough to make me pay for one. That changed a few weeks ago when I started testing the Clicks Keyboard with my Pixel 9 Pro, which is

Partially Matching Zig Enums

Partially Matching Zig Enums A short post about a neat little Zig idiom. Consider your average {sum type, variant, tagged union, enum, alt}: enum U { A ( i32 ), B ( i32 ), C, } Usually, you handle it like this: match u { U:: A (_) => handle_a (), U:: B (_) => handle_b (), U::C => handle_c (), } But once in a while, there’s common handling code you want to run for several variants. The most straightforward way is to duplicate: match u { U:: A (_) => { handle_ab (); handle_a (); } U:: B (_)

EFL Championship Soccer: Stream Southampton vs. Wrexham Live From Anywhere

Below, we'll outline the best live TV streaming services to use to watch the game as it happens, wherever you are in the world, and how to use a VPN if the match isn't available where you are.

Here’s How to Buy the Best Used EV

Haven't you heard?! If you’re at all interested in going electric, a recipe of US tax policy changes plus recent progress in vehicle and battery tech means the perfect time to buy a used electric vehicle is, well, now. Really: A $4,000 used EV tax credit for qualified buyers expires at the end of September, which means you’ll be competing with other electric bargain hunters for the next few weeks. The question, of course, is how. Electric vehicles have some crucial differences from their gas-po

OpenAI Bringing Back More Parasocial Version of ChatGPT After Users Scream and Cry That Their Robot Friend Got Taken Away

ChatGPT's fans have developed intense attachments to some of the "personalities" exhibited by the company's large language models (LLMs) — and as such, many were in a state of panic when the choice to switch between models like GPT-4o, 4.5, and others was abruptly taken away after the release of GPT-5. OpenAI briefly kiboshed the model picker option from ChatGPT as part of the launch of GPT-5, its long-awaited new LLM, which essentially forced everyone to use the latest model whether they liked

The Day Novartis Chose Discovery

In 2002, Mark Fishman walked into a glass building in Cambridge with an unusual assignment: to turn the Swiss pharmaceutical company, Novartis, into the world’s greatest therapeutics research firm. More unusually still, Fishman was — at least on paper — precisely the wrong man for the job. The Harvard cardiologist had spent his career studying zebrafish hearts and teaching medical students. He had no pharmaceutical experience and no business training. And yet, Daniel Vasella — the physician-tur

ChatGPT comes with personality presets now - and 3 other upgrades you might have missed

"You go down the road, you turn the corner and you're behind a mountain and you'll lose cell coverage pretty fast," he says.

I bought a £16 smartwatch just because it used USB-C

Look, I'm an idiot. I know that, you know that, and the man on the moon knows that. Let's not get into why I'm an idiot; let's just accept that I have my peculiarities and you have yours. My idiocy is a quest to make sure all my portable electronics can recharge using USB-C. Modern smartwatches are tiny and they do a lot. As a consequence, their battery life is generally poor. The industry's attempts to fix this are either to replace the charging standard every year hoping to find something mag

Impersonators are targeting companies with fake TechCrunch outreach

Hi, thanks as always for reading TechCrunch. We want to talk with you quickly about something important. We’ve discovered that scammers are impersonating TechCrunch reporters and event leads and reaching out to companies, pretending to be our staff when they absolutely are not.

My DIY modular charging station

The cables crept into our lives gradually. First, we had a USB charger in our bedroom to charge my wife’s iPad or my Kindle. Then we added another near our dining table, pulling up a chair to use as a base when charging the kids’ iPad. Add in frequent visits by family and most of our available outlets have a charger coming out of it in one form or another. Aside from the fact that we now had cables all over the house, there was the annoyance of walking around the house to find a charger, only t

Microsoft's Clippy Crocs Might Be the World's Weirdest Pair of Shoes

Crocs are an infamously ugly shoe style that was once named to Time's list of the 50 worst inventions. Clippy is an annoying animated paperclip from Microsoft that once made that same list. So maybe it's fate that the two much-mocked products are teaming up for a pair of limited-edition Crocs the wearer can deck out with a smiling Clippy accessory. According to The Verge, the Crocs are part of Microsoft's celebration of its 50th anniversary, and are right now only available for preorder by Micr

Truth Social’s New AI Chatbot Is Donald Trump’s Media Diet Incarnate

When I ask the new Truth Social AI chatbot about navigating bias in the media ecosystem, it gives what I view as pretty reasonable advice. “Diversify your sources,” it responds. “Rely on news outlets across the political spectrum, including those from both left-leaning and right-leaning perspectives.” This is advice that the AI itself may not be taking to heart. For instance, to come to the above answer it cites five sources, four of which are Fox News articles. The fifth, inexplicably, is a 4

Apple acing its latest tech stack takeover is great news for the iPhone 17 Air

It’s been nearly six months since Apple changed a crucial piece of technology inside the iPhone. This timeline is great news for the all-new iPhone 17 Air coming in just a few short weeks. C1 chip success That core piece of tech, of course, is the cellular modem inside the iPhone. Starting with the more affordable iPhone 16e in February, Apple began shipping its first iPhone that uses its homegrown chip for making calls and connecting to cell networks.

ChatGPT is bringing back 4o as an option because people missed it

is a news writer who covers the streaming wars, consumer tech, crypto, social media, and much more. Previously, she was a writer and editor at MUO. OpenAI is bringing back GPT-4o in ChatGPT just one day after replacing it with GPT-5. In a post on X, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman confirmed that the company will let paid users switch to GPT-4o after ChatGPT users mourned its replacement. “We will let Plus users choose to continue to use 4o,” Altman says. “We will watch usage as we think about how long t

It Took Just 24 Hours of Complaints for OpenAI to Start Bringing Back Its Old Model

OpenAI unveiled its latest generative AI model, GPT-5, on Thursday. CEO Sam Altman says that ChatGPT is now like having a “superpower” and the equivalent of “a legitimate PhD-level expert in anything, any area you need, on demand, that can help you with whatever your goals are.” But after a day of playing around with it, many people are disappointed. Not only because GPT-5 still fumbles basic questions, but because it seems to be breaking a lot of workflows, according to complaints posted to Red

Apple brings OpenAI’s GPT-5 to iOS and macOS

OpenAI's GPT-5 model went live for most ChatGPT users this week, but lots of people use ChatGPT not through OpenAI's interface but through other platforms or tools. One of the largest deployments is iOS, the iPhone operating system, which allows users to make certain queries via GPT-4o. It turns out those users won't have to wait long for the latest model: Apple will switch to GPT-5 in iOS 26, iPadOS 26, and macOS Tahoe 26, according to 9to5Mac. Apple has not officially announced when those OS

Sam Altman addresses ‘bumpy’ GPT-5 rollout, bringing 4o back, and the ‘chart crime’

During a Reddit ask-me-anything session on Friday, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and key members of the GPT-5 team were peppered with questions about the new model and requests to bring back its previous model, GPT-4o. They also asked Altman about the most embarrassing — and perhaps funniest — snafu in the presentation, the “chart crime.” One of the new features that GPT-5 rolled out is a real-time router that decides which model to use for a particular prompt, either responding quickly or taking addi

Game over: Chrome OS pulls the plug on Steam gaming

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Steam on Chrome OS support began as a beta test in early 2022. After graduating to a beta later that year, progress slowed down. Now users are being informed that the beta is slated to end as 2026 gets started. Choosing a Chromebook over a standard PC laptop can make sense for a lot of good reasons, from wanting to take advantage of the platform’s track record of security, to just hoping to save some money on affordable hardware. But one pro we rarel

OpenAI keeps GPT-4o active and doubles GPT-5 usage for some users

Yesterday OpenAI released GPT-5, the latest model update to ChatGPT. More than 24 hours later, the new model is still rolling out to paid and free customers. Meanwhile, OpenAI is reconsidering the availability of certain models and limitations for customers. The new model will also be more transparent and offer more control over which tools it uses for which requests. Let’s start with the rollout status. I was pleasantly surprised when OpenAI said GPT-5 would be available to almost all of its u

Steam for Chromebooks is reportedly being discontinued

The dream of Chromebooks that double as gaming laptops appears to be on its last legs. 9to5Google reports that Google is ending support for Steam for Chromebooks starting January 1, 2026. Porting the application launcher was part of an extended push from the company to make Chromebooks a place to play games. Companies like ASUS and Acer announced and released gaming Chromebooks, but the idea never seemed to catch on. Google's plan to retire Steam for Chromebooks was discovered when 9to5Google t
