While the near-invincible Homelander is the most terrifying sociopath currently on our screens, none of the Compound-V-augmented characters in this show are good people. Heck, even the characters without superpowers are pretty gross. But that’s part of the charm, and the reason why The Boys is such subversive fun. If you’ve binged the final episodes and are looking for more laser-eyed, 'Herogasm'-style entertainment—and you’ve already burned through all the other TV shows in the same vein—don’t fret: There are also a b…

Alongside the new emojis, AI playlists, and other goodies that rolled out with iOS 26.4, Apple included a less-welcome upgrade for users in the UK: age verification. Once the update has been installed, anyone in the UK with an iPhone has to verify how old they are. There'll be a prompt to do this, and if that's dismissed, there's a persistent reminder in Settings. The same change is happening with iPads and iPadOS 26.4, but not with Macs. If you're in the UK and aren't 18 or over (or can't prove you are), then certain restrictions get applied—including filters on the kind of websites you can access and the content you can send in messages. It's an enforced requirement tha…

But all along the company refused to confirm that Fitbit hardware was truly dead, and a new promotional video appears to show why—it looks like there’s a Whoop-style smart band on the way. What was teasedThe video was posted to Steph Curry’s Instagram page on March 31, so it’s not an April Fool’s stunt. In a few short clips, we see a gray and orange fabric band around Curry’s left wrist. He says “I’m excited for what this is going to mean for health for the world and wellness. It’s a first of its kin…

Last month, news broke about "DarkSword," a malware kit that makes it easy for hackers to scrape passwords, emails, crypto wallets, and more from your iPhone. You don't have to do much to put yourself in harms way, either: Visiting a malicious website is all it takes for DarkSword to get to work, which makes it particularly dangerous. It's not totally clear what DarkSword's risk is to the average user. Google Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG) says it identified "multiple commercial surveillance vendors and suspected state-sponsored actors" using the malware against targets in Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Malaysia, and Ukraine, appearing as if the victims were highly-specific. Th…

DJI built its reputation on drones and creator gear, but the brand has been making serious moves in the portable power space. The DJI Power 2000 is the company's most capable standalone power station yet. Think of it as a large rechargeable battery you can take anywhere—camping, a job site, an outdoor movie night, or just kept in the garage for when the power goes out. At $799, it's currently down $500 from its original $1,299 price tag. That's a solid discount for something that sits in the higher end of this category. …

Sherlock Holmes is only recently in the public domain (at least in full), and hoo boy, are creators going to make the most of it—there are at least three major Doyle-adjacent works streaming in 2026, and I'm probably missing a couple. Not that IP was ever much of a barrier, as evidenced by the hundreds of films, books, porn parodies, etc. released in the near-century since Arthur Conan Doyle's death. Which is all to say that Holmes is pretty resilient as a character, and, while I wouldn't have said that we need a zippy, Guy Ritchie Sherlock prequel—Young Sherlock is unique, and quite a bit of fun. It's stretching the chara…

The StairMaster may be having a moment, but straight-up stair running has been around forever. As a runner myself, I know real-world stair workouts are one of the most effective and accessible training tools out there, no gym membership required. Especially for my fellow city runners without mountains or hills nearby—or really anyone looking to add some variety into their workouts—stair workouts are a great option to try. What is vertical training?Vertical training is exactly what it sounds like: deliberately incorporating upward movement into your workout. Unlike "flat" running, every step up forces your body to fight gravity, which changes the muscular demand, the card…

I've been on Threads since it first launched in 2023, and throughout my experience, I've learned a few hacks to save time (and sanity) on the platform. If you're a regular Threads user, you should try these methods to reduce unwanted content from your feed, speed up searches, and customize the app to your liking. Use these tools to download videos from ThreadsLike most of my social media feeds, my Threads feed is also full of cat videos. When I see one I like, I sometimes download the video to watch later. As you may know, Threads doesn't support media downloads, which means that you'll need to rely on third-party tools to download videos from the app. You can try Threads…

It happens to the best of us: You write up a comment on an Instagram post, hit send, and, whoops, realize you made a glaring typo. What do you do? Do you delete the comment, retype it, and submit again, doubling the notifications the poster will receive? Leave it, and hope others will overlook your foolish use of "it's" instead of "its"? Neither option is great, but they're the only two choices you have on Instagram, right? No longer: On Thursday, Instagram announced some exciting news for frequent commenters: Going forward, you'll be able to edit your Instagram comments. Whether you regret one part of your comment, or you only need to fix a mistake, this new feature let…

Studios want to get their best material in front of as many eyes as possible in the run up to the Oscars, leading to a glut of streaming prestige movies, an embarrassment of cinematic riches. Whether you like high-concept sci-fi, quirky, auteur-driven dramas, or record-breaking awards contenders, February’s streaming charts are excellent. Here's the full list of the top 10 most-streamed movies of February 2026 across all major streaming services, as compiled by JustWatch. Predator: Badlands (2025) …

Whether you love to garden or take pride in an immaculately landscaped space ideal for entertaining (or both), creating and maintaining a beautiful outdoor area for you and your family to enjoy adds immeasurable value to your property and quality of life. If your family includes some beloved pets who also enjoy your outdoor spaces, however, you have to be careful when it comes to the plants you choose for your garden or landscaping. There are a lot of plants that are safe for humans that can poison our furry friends, so being deliberate in your choices when planning out the garden or laying out your landscaping is a must if pets are going to be allowed outside. Here are s…

Meta has pulled a 180 on its flagship metaverse app. On Tuesday, the company announced the date it planned to shut down virtual hangspace Horizon Worlds. Then late yesterday, the company announced it will actually keep Worlds open to VR users "for the foreseeable future." In an Instagram story, Meta's CTO Andrew Bosworth said, "We decided, just today in fact, that we will keep Horizon Worlds working in VR for existing games, to support the fans who have reached out." According to Bosworth, Meta won't be working on any new VR games within Worlds, but the current content will still be around for VR users. "People who already have games they like, that they're using in Horiz…

Another massive data breach has compromised millions of Americans' healthcare data and sensitive information. Navia Benefit Solutions, a benefits administrator for more than 10,000 U.S. employers, has disclosed a hack that affects nearly 2.7 million individuals, according to a March 18 filing with the Maine Attorney General. Navia's services include software and customer support for the administration of everything from Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) and Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) to commuter and education benefits. What happened with the Navia Benefit Solutions data breach?On Jan. 23, Navia identified "suspicious activity" on its systems, leading to the discovery…

Most of us don’t do enough strength training to realize the health benefits it can bring. The American College of Sports Medicine has released a new guideline on strength training that gives more realistic advice than what you may have heard about strength training elsewhere. Aside from outlining the amount of training we need, the new guidelines also come with a few surprises, in the form of debunking many long-held "rules" of strength training. Among them: training to failure isn’t essential, and unstable surfaces aren’t necessary to improve your balance. I keep seeing fitness professionals celebrating these new ACSM guidelines as a major improvement on previous advice…

Almost everything we do digitally leaves a trace of some kind, and while it can be useful to look back on this past activity—when trying to remember where that great coffee shop you stumbled across is, perhaps—this continual logging and tracking doesn't really align with best privacy and security practices. Meet Tails (The Amnesic Incognito Live System), a Linux distro based on Debian that maximizes user security and privacy. It can run from a USB drive, which means you're able to plug it into any laptop or desktop with a free port (Mac or PC) and take it away again when you're done, with nothing left behind on the compute…

WWDC 2026 is rapidly approaching. While Apple has a number of events throughout any given year, WWDC is one of two Apple keynotes that the tech community actively anticipates (the other being the iPhone fall event). This is Apple's chance to show off all of the software updates its been working on since the last WWDC—and all the features that come with them. This year, that likely means iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS 27, and watchOS 27. When is WWDC 2026?Apple announced on Monday that WWDC 2026 will kick off on Monday, June 8 and run through Friday, June 12. If you're used to watching a single keynote from past WWDCs, seeing that this year's event runs multiple days might come…

From the moment Mark Scout (Adam Scott) first rode an elevator down to his office and became a totally different person, we’ve been obsessed with Severance. Over two spectacular seasons, Ben Stiller’s sci-fi satire has explored the banality of corporate culture (and corporate cults), the impact of trauma, and the power of memory—or lack thereof. The story of a group of people who undergo the severance procedure, creating a separate workplace persona called an “Innie” who is essentially a separate individual lacking their outside memories, delivered one of the best finales of all time with its second-season ender “Cold Harb…
