Struggling to make your home office work as efficiently as that fancy office at work that you can’t use at the moment? Until the global pandemic subsides, there are a lot of things you can do to make your house a more hospitable work environment. If you’re used to using two monitors, one of those …

Just because we’re all staying home these days doesn’t mean we don’t need a good power bank or two. In fact, I’ve redefined portability in recent weeks as “working away from an outlet,” rather than working away from home. That can be on the living room sofa or out in the backyard. And with some excellent prices on power banks …

I think Bond actors are like Saturday Night Live casts and Star Trek series — you might appreciate the others, but your favorite is always going to be the one you grew up watching. But Apple isn’t making you choose, because right now, it’s having a sale on all of its Bond Collections. There are five, one for each actor …

I have a garage full of Ryobi tools. I’m a huge fan of the company’s One Plus line, which lets all sorts of hardware — from drills to sanders to saws to spotlights all work interchangeably with the standard  18-volt battery. And now that we’re all spending a lot more quality time at home, thanks to the global pandemic, it’s …

You might not have had time to notice, what with the global pandemic occupying so much of our attention, but it’s Easter Sunday. Easter isn’t traditionally a big gift-giving holiday — unless you count all the chocolate bunnies and Peeps for the kids — but Best Buy is having a one-day flash sale today. The retailer is cutting prices on …

Dell has a habit of swooping in with a great deal and then flying away, hardly before you realized what happened. That’s happening right now with the Alienware Aurora, a great gaming rig that I’ve written about on numerous occasions before. This system is packed with great components, like a 9th-generation Intel Core i7-9700K CPU, an Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 …

Easter is just a few days away, on Sunday, April 12. If you have a tradition of buying Easter flowers, I have some bad news: Thanks to the coronavirus, few flower shops will be open anywhere in the country to pick up a bouquet of lilies. Even if stores were open, though, who really wants to leave the house to …

Working from home is a great alternative to mingling with other humans during this global pandemic, but a lot of people are finding themselves ill-equipped for telework. After all, not everyone had experience working from home back during normal times, and so you might not have some of the bare essentials for working remotely. Like a laptop. Rather than staying …

There’s a real dearth of budget-priced noise-canceling headphones out there. When we recently wrote about the best noise-canceling headphones of 2020, most of the entries clocked in between $150 and $350 (like the superb Sony WH1000XM3), and only one sub-$100 headset even made the list, the Anker Soundcore Life 2.  But what if you want to spend less than $50? …

For a lot of people, Blu-ray’s day has come and gone. It’s not hard to see why — streaming services have made the concept of inserting a plastic disc in a machine to watch Birds of Prey seem as archaic as my old 400-disc audio CD carousel (and if you’re too young to remember such things, yes, they were real …
