You're buying Ryobi tools from the wrong store. Here's how to get them at a lower price

How-To Geek - 42 min 28 sec ago

While Ryobi tools at Home Depot are exclusive to the retailer, Ryobi is owned by TTI, which also owns Milwaukee and Ridgid tools. Home Depot is the only retail company authorized to sell Ryobi-branded products. You won’t find them at Lowe’s, Harbor Freight, Menards, or other big retail chains.

The Nvidia Shield TV Pro doesn't make sense when a mini PC can do more at half the price

How-To Geek - 57 min 28 sec ago

In a vacuum, the Nvidia Shield TV Pro is still one of the beefiest and most capable streaming boxes around. Its Tegra X1+ chip coupled with 3GB of RAM is powerful enough for any video file, you get support for most major HDR and audio formats, and the streamer also offers extra goodies such as excellent AI upscaling, gigabit LAN, and two USB 3.0 ports.

I spent $100 on an old Intel iMac and Linux made it useful again

How-To Geek - 1 hour 12 min ago

It's amazing what you can find when it comes to used computers. The current strange pricing of computer hardware notwithstanding, for the most part computers devalue rapidly. So a machine from ten years ago will have lost nearly all of its value.

Home Assistant makes more sense when you set up these 5 plugins

How-To Geek - 1 hour 41 min ago

One of the best things about Home Assistant is how customizable it is. Instead of installing a huge piece of software that supports every smart home device known to man, you can install specific integrations for the devices you own. There are also powerful plugins, including what were previously called add-ons but are now known as apps, that make Home Assistant even more powerful.

I started using keyboard layers, now I can't go back to typing normally

How-To Geek - 2 hours 12 min ago

My keyboard doesn’t have a Delete key. It doesn’t have F1 through F12, Home, End, or even a tilde, and I type thousands of words on it every day without missing any of them. That’s because my keyboard has layers: hold one thumb key and the entire keyboard turns into something else entirely. Once I started building my workflow around layers, a normal keyboard started to feel like it was missing something.

HBO teases a new season of It: Welcome to Derry with 30-minute Halloween special

Mashable - 2 hours 17 min ago

After the success of HBO's horror TV show It: Welcome to Derry, released one year ago this month, it was no surprise that the network would renew the show for a second season, but nobody predicted that it would launch with a surprise special episode, released right on time for Halloween.

"A Story of Derry" is a 30-minute bonus episode that simultaneously points fans to the season ahead and takes them back in time to the very origins of the entity that would become Pennywise the Clown. 

SEE ALSO: 'IT: Welcome to Derry's chaotic ending, explained

Two YouTube/TikTok shorts were used to announce the special episode, the first more of a tease than the second, but both give us insight into the likely timeline of the series: sometime in the distant past, before the American founding. 

The episode itself follows three children venturing alone into the Western Wood, where they encounter not only a malevolent, terrifying spirit but also something cosmic and beautiful, a counterweight to the horror and violence of Pennywise.

Fans of the series will love this mini-episode, but they will also surely be disappointed because the second season of It: Welcome to Derry isn't in production yet and therefore has no release window, let alone a release date. In a recent interview with the New York Post, showrunner Brad Caleb Kane promised that the new season would exceed the terror and suspense of the last, and indicated that they're actively writing it now, so a late-2027 or early-2028 release date is still a possibility.

In the meantime, horror fans should definitely check out "A Story of Derry," not only for its own merits but for the additional backstory it brings to the Pennywise lore.

How to use the SORT function in Excel

How-To Geek - 3 hours 11 min ago

Some of Excel's most useful functions are also its simplest. SORT is a good example: with a single argument, you can alphabetize a list, and with a couple more, you can sort an entire dataset. Better still, the results update automatically when the data in your source range changes, so you don't have to repeat the process every time a number or name changes.

Anthropic takes steps to block Claude from reverse-engineering video games

Mashable - 3 hours 14 min ago

According to reporting from Tom's Hardware, Anthropic's Claude AI has quietly started restricting the kinds of work it will do, including modding, decompiling, or reverse-engineering video game code. And though there has as yet been no official announcement about why, the reason is still pretty obvious.  

The video game community has been in the news a lot lately, first because of the GTA6 leaks that went mega-viral and spurred Take-Two Interactive into getting subpoenas against both Microsoft and Discord in the hopes of finding the responsible parties, and next because the hacking and modding community discovered how much easier AI makes their job.

SEE ALSO: Claude's new smart reports tell bosses when workers are 'off-topic'

First, game decompilers went into overdrive, playing around with the source code of multiple different video games to, for example, put Nintendo's Mario inside the dark gothic world of Elden Ring, or import Spider-Man into the Batman: Arkham City game, seamlessly blending the mechanics of one character into the world of another. Next came the ports: World of Warcraft, Call of Duty, and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City made playable in a browser, without the original developers or copyright owners having any say in the matter. 

These initial modifications and ports were already giving gaming companies nightmares, teasing a future without system gatekeeping, but things really got out of hand with the PlayStation 5 jailbreak, which resulted in everything from backward compatibility with older-gen PlayStation games to cross-platform play, with users figuring out how to run Xbox-exclusive titles like Halo 2 and acclaimed Nintendo titles like Zelda: Breath of the Wild on a jailbroken PS5.

Given the potential number of lawsuits these jailbreaks could cause, and the astronomically high nature of the monetary damages, it's no surprise that AI companies are scrambling to shut down or severely restrict these pathways, but it's also deeply ironic. As Tom's Hardware reporter Bruno Ferreira notes, this sudden concern for copyright "highlights the irony of frontier AI companies that copied the world's information and art for their training sets and are now concerned with copyright infringement." 

There's also the ugly truth that, if one company makes a gesture toward respecting copyright law or basic ethics, the bad actors can find another LLM that won't (or hasn't yet) taken the same precautions, creating a kind of AI arms race driven by perverse incentives: the least ethical AI might be poised to become the most popular.

Pokémon TCG 30th Anniversary Ultra-Premium Collection preorders are live: Shop now for under market price

Mashable - 4 hours 9 sec ago

TL;DR: The Pokémon TCG 30th Celebration Ultra-Premium Collection Day (Espeon) and Pokémon TCG 30th Celebration Ultra-Premium Collection Night (Umbreon) are available to preorder now on Walmart.

  Shop Now at Walmart

Next week is going to be absolutely huge for Pokémon TCG collectors. We've had a wave of announcements in recent weeks, so it's hardly been quiet lately, but the Day and Night Ultra-Premium Collections and the Delta Reign Expansion are set to release on Nov. 6. Now that's big news.

With the launch day fast approaching, preorder offers are getting competitive. Amazon listings went live weeks ago but have since vanished. That has left Walmart offering the best rate on the Pokémon TCG 30th Celebration Ultra-Premium Collection Day (Espeon) and Pokémon TCG 30th Celebration Ultra-Premium Collection Night (Umbreon).

Both high-end boxes are currently available to preorder at Walmart for way under market price. That's a rare deal that will sell quickly.

TCGplayer's market price for the Day Box is currently $531.48, compared to Walmart's $495. The market price for the Night Box is $567.59, compared with Walmart's $509.99.

Both Ultra-Premium Collections come packed with 29 30th Celebration booster packs, one Classic Collection booster pack, custom metal coins, deck boxes, card sleeves, and damage-counter dice. Of course, a lot of the hype comes from the exclusive promo cards.

The Day collection includes the exclusive Espeon ex promo card with a Daytime Pikachu ex promo card and an Espeon playmat. The Night box includes the exclusive Umbreon ex promo card with a Futuristic-rarity Pikachu ex promo card and an Umbreon playmat.

It's not easy finding real value for money in the trading card market, so scoring preorders for way under market value is pretty special. And that goes double for a collection like this.

7 TV trends that were doomed to fail

How-To Geek - 4 hours 12 min ago

I‘ve always been a fan of home theater and TV technology. Over the decades, I’ve tried many of the “next big things” the industry has offered: projectors, rear-projection TVs, a 43” tube TV that felt huge at the time, and for a short while a curved TV. Looking back, it’s been a fun ride, but many so-called “game changers” never lived up to the hype.

I turned a broken practice amp into a killer speaker with my phone and a $10 DAC

How-To Geek - 4 hours 42 min ago

Several years ago, I was really into playing the bass. The playing styles of Les Claypool, Geddy Lee, Arthur Barrow, and Victor Wooten inspired the heck out of me. So I bought a few basses and a couple of amps. One amp in particular, a Blackstar 3W practice amp, ended up being one of my most used amplifiers (with both bass and guitar). Last year, the input jack stopped working entirely, and I thought the device was completely dead. I turned out to be wrong about that, so I repurposed it into something new.

  Shop Now at Amazon

For a brief period, Amazon's wild $59.99 deal on the Pokémon TCG 30th Celebration Elite Trainer Box ceased to exist. At the start of the week, we were seeing prices hovering around $175. The "request invite" had gone, but we were looking at paying well over market price. This was a tough time for everyone involved, but we're glad to see Amazon's generous offer has made a triumphant return.

For a limited time, the Pokémon TCG 30th Celebration Elite Trainer Box is on sale for just $59.99 on Amazon. Shipping and sales are handled directly by Amazon, but Amazon is still routing orders through its "request invite" system. These are selling fast, so collectors are clearly getting through.

Amazon’s price is way under TCGplayer’s $118 market price. That's rare to see nowadays, so you know shoppers will jump on this.

The 30th Celebration Elite Trainer Box contains nine 30th Celebration booster packs, an exclusive full-art foil Nidorina promo card, 16 foil Basic Energy cards, 65 custom card sleeves, damage-counter dice, a condition marker, card dividers, a collector’s player guide, and a code card for Pokémon TCG Live.

Shop the Pokémon TCG 30th Celebration ETB for under $60 at Amazon.

How to watch Chelsea vs. Man United online for free

Mashable - 6 hours 23 min ago

TL;DR: Watch Chelsea vs. Manchester United in the Premier League for free on CazéTV. Access this free livestream from anywhere in the world with ExpressVPN.
