I’ve tested the best power stations, and these are my favorite ones of 2025

First things first: the Anker F3800 Plus is expensive! It has a retail price of $4,799. It’s a worthwhile investment if you can take advantage of everything it offers, though. The Anker F3800 Plus comes with a hefty 3,840Wh battery capacity. It can literally charge your phone hundreds of times. Of course, you’re not getting this to charge your phone. In my experience, I can run my mini fridge full-time, and occasionally use my air fryer, kettle, and microwave oven a few times a day. At full cha

A Brompton Reborn: How to Future-Proof a Decades-Old Foldable Bike

Then there’s the Sharpie marker pen, which hasn’t changed since 1964. In London, in 1975, a Cambridge engineering graduate, Andrew Ritchie, came up with a ludicrous concept

Ryzen 7 9800X3D vs. Ryzen 5 7600X: CPU and GPU Scaling Benchmark

Time for a new benchmark series. CPU and GPU scaling tests have been high on the community's wishlist for a while now – and it's time to deliver. Several comparisons are already in the pipeline, including fan favorites like AMD's 5800X3D and Intel's discounted Core Ultra 7 265K, so expect those soon. To kick things off and establish a baseline, we're starting with the Ryzen 7 9800X3D versus the ever-popular Ryzen 5 7600X. It's a clash between a gaming powerhouse and a budget-friendly performanc

Pour one out for 400/800 FireWire? macOS 26 beta 1 drops support for both standards

If you’re still rocking a first-generation iPod or, like me, are holding on to an old FireWire external drive for dear life, this one might hit hard: the first developer beta of macOS 26 Tahoe appears to have dropped support for the FireWire 400 and 800 standards. Reddit and X users (via MacRumors) who upgraded to macOS Tahoe 26 developer beta 1 say FireWire 400 and FireWire 800 devices no longer mount, whether it’s an old iPod, a MiniDV camcorder, or that trusty LaCie drive you’ve been using f

This 1-800 number will generate ChatGPT images, if for some reason you need that

The discourse around artificial intelligence has all been about pursuing the bleeding edge, pushing the tech into the future as fast as possible. So maybe it should be refreshing that OpenAI's latest announcement feels almost quaintly analog. Starting today, users can tap into the company's image generation by texting 1-800-ChatGPT on WhatsApp. The post on X announcing this new option for using the ChatGPT AI chatbot specifies that the feature is "now available to everyone." I'm not sure what p

You Can Now Generate ChatGPT Images by Texting a 1-800 Number on WhatsApp

ChatGPT's image generator tool now takes requests at 1-800-CHATGPT. The feature, announced by OpenAI on Monday in a post on X, allows anyone with a WhatsApp account to text that phone number and make a request for an AI-generated image using a plain-language prompt. In a CNET test, the ChatGPT hotline was able to create an old-school corded telephone image with the ChatGPT logo on it in about two minutes. The 1-800 number also accepts ChatGPT requests that aren't for images. If you don't have

I had fairly low expectations going into reviewing the Mammotion Yuka Mini 800, mainly because my understanding of robot grass mowers was outdated. The last time I had checked, they were all too expensive for me to seriously consider getting one for my suburban backyard. I also thought that these machines required guide wires to define the areas you want mowed, something
