Traditionally, spring hasn’t been a big online shopping season, comparatively speaking. Summer has Prime Day, fall has Prime Deal Days and Black Friday, and there are a bunch of holiday sales during winter. But that has been changing since Amazon's launched its Big Spring Sale three years ago. And this year, as usual, Target is competing for your dollars with its own spring promotion: Circle Deal Days. What is Circle Deal Days?Circle Deal Days is Target’s name for its spring sale event this year. In previous years, Target held Circle Week, which las…

We can now adjust the climate, monitor our resource consumption, and stream our media anywhere in the house with a tap of the finger or a few spoken words. But that convenience and power has come with a cost, and that cost is the, well, aesthetic of some of that smart tech. Smart devices are often clunky plastic monstrosities that insist upon taking over more than their fair share of flat surfaces. If you’re hoping for a more elegant, analog look—while still enjoying the benefits of …

If you have an iPhone, listen up: There's a new security risk that hackers have been actively exploiting since at least November. While you're not likely to be the target of such an attack, your iPhone is nevertheless vulnerable, unless you take the following (albeit simple) action: update your iPhone. What is DarkSword? Google Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG) identified the new "full-chain exploit," in partnership with security firms Lookout and iVerify. The exploit, called "DarkSword," takes advantage of six zero-day vulnerabilities to compromise iPhones. GTIG says, as of November, it observed "multiple commercial surveillance vendors and suspected state-sponsored acto…

This Amazon Big Spring Sale deal on a TV is remarkable: A Hisense 32" LED television for $74.99—that's cheaper than dinner and drinks in most U.S. cities. This isn't going to be the greatest TV of all time, but from all available accounts, its at least a solid set. It's an older model—released in 2020—but that means there are over 3,000 reviews on Amazon, and the score is a respectable 4.1 stars out of 5. Critics generally were positive when it first came out, too. INSIGNIA 32" Class F20 Series LED HD Smart Fire TV with Alexa Voice Remote (NS-32F201NA26) …

The streaming services you already subscribe to have more content than you could possible ever watch. If something you want to see is only on a specific platform, you can subscribe to it. If it's only available to buy or rent digitally, you can do that too. But with the rise of streaming, the concept of owning and curating a home video collection has fallen away. It seems fewer and fewer of us want a collection of discs in our homes. We'd prefer everything to fit neatly into our smart TVs. But streaming isn't perfect—far from it. Maybe you were counting on…

Like many parents, I know well the pain of my Roblox-addicted child asking me to trade my real money for fake money he can use to buy pretend items in a digital video game. So when Roblox announced the April 30 launch of Roblox Plus, a monthly subscription service with perks that could net us a 20% discount on all the digital items, my interest was piqued. But is Roblox Plus actually worth it? Let's do some math. What do you get with Roblox Plus? As noted in today's announcement on the Roblox website, once it launches at the end of this month, the primary benefit of Roblox Plus will be a discount on items purchased with Robux, the platform's in-game currency. Your mont…

Saying “my back hurts” is a bit like saying “my car is making a noise.” It may be serious, or it may be nothing, and only a professional will know for sure.

Ever since our house flooded in the middle of the night (though thankfully before we fell asleep), my wife and I have been diligent about setting up water alarms all over the house, so we'll receive crucial warning the moment something leaks or backs up. Well, the other night, the alarm under the kitchen sink went off while the dishwasher was running—and, sure enough, there was water gushing out of the sink drain. Luckily, I was able to turn off the water and clean everything up before it totally ruined my cabinets and floors. I started my investigation into the problem, and about three seconds later, it was obvious: My s…
