My Favorite All-in-One Kitchen Appliance Is on Sale for 20% Off

Too often, all-in-one kitchen appliances end up doing a lot of things poorly instead of doing one thing well. And, because some models have a lot of components, they can be a nightmare to clean. But the Chefman Everything Maker quickly won me over. The nonstick cooking surfaces heat up quickly and cleanup takes minimal effort (a serious win in my book). I've made crispy hash browns, gooey grilled cheese, breakfast sandwiches and perfectly golden pancakes -- all in one compact machine. And it's

Tim Cook’s run as Apple CEO could be much longer than you think

Travel Mugs, Nonstick Pans and More Items That Don't Belong in the Dishwasher

Whether you're learning the ropes of a brand-new dishwasher or you've been hands-free dishwashing for years, it's tempting to load it up and let it rip. It's summer -- you've got better things to do than babysit a sink full of dirty silverware. But before you start stacking every spatula and chef's knife onto the racks, take a beat. Your dishwasher's high heat and aggressive cycles can do more harm than good to certain kitchen tools. Warping, rusting, cracking and dulling are all fair game -- e

AI Is a Lousy Chef

After my sage plant struggled for years in a shadowy corner of my roof-deck planter garden, I moved it into the sunniest spot up there. Boy did that make a difference. It also meant I needed to figure out what to do with all the leaves it produced. As luck would have it, I was also trying out AI cooking platforms. That night, I plugged the prompt “recipe using brats and lots of sage” into an AI recipe generator and it gave me what it called “sage infused brats skillet with caramelized onions.”

How to clear your iPhone cache (and why it greatly improves the performance)

What is cache? Cache -- or browser cache -- is the temporary storage of website files. So, things like images, scripts, and cookies that your browser saves on your phone to make pages load faster the next time you visit. Also: Every iPhone model that can be updated to iOS 26 (and which ones don't support it) Over time, though, those files can add up, taking a large bite out of your device storage and slowing things down. That's why it's smart to clear your browser cache regularly. In this art

COO exit creates unanswered questions about Apple Watch and Health future

Apple made an interesting omission in yesterday’s chief operating officer transition announcement. Design, which previously reported to COO Jeff Williams, will soon report to CEO Tim Cook, but the press release stopped short of explaining where Williams’ other product responsibility will go when he leaves. What happens to Apple Watch and Health after the COO transition? Operations veteran Sabih Khan will take over as COO later this month, but Jeff Williams will hang around the company throug

Tim Cook has a new deputy but Apple’s next CEO is probably still someone else

Jeff Williams, often considered Tim Cook’s successor, is leaving Apple. Sabih Khan, a 30-year veteran of the company, is Apple’s next chief operating officer. Does Khan taking Cook’s old job make him CEO-designate? Jeff Williams retiring certainly clears the path for Khan to climb up the succession planning ladder. However, I would wager that Apple’s CEO succession plan isn’t changing. Jeff Williams retires and Sabih Khan steps up Jeff Williams, who has been called Tim Cook’s Tim Cook, has alw

Apple back in the White House’s crosshairs as Trump aide slams Tim Cook over China

Everyone Is Yelling at Apple

Apple just cannot make anyone happy right now—and that’s not even taking into account the tepid response to its new “liquid glass” design principles. Its stores have become the latest target of climate activists looking to hold corporations for their role in the ongoing climate crisis, while it’s also getting hammered by the Trump administration for its failure to quit China cold turkey. The first hit of the recent barrage of blows that Apple has taken came over the weekend when protesters with
