Plex has been around since 2008, forking from a macOS XBMC port, which is, of course, today's Kodi. I haven't been on the Plex train since day one, but it has been over a decade at this point, and it was my first go at self-hosting streaming media in my home.

Everyone loves a good deal, especially when the car you’re getting feels a lot nicer and drives better than the price would suggest. With affordable cars getting harder to come by, it’s refreshing when a brand actually puts in the effort to stretch value further.

TL;DR: The LG 27GX790B-B 27-inch UltraGear OLED gaming monitor is on sale for $699.99 at Amazon, down from its $999.99 list price.

$999.99 Save $300 Get Deal

OLED gaming monitors are rarely where you go looking for budget upgrades, but Amazon’s latest LG UltraGear deal gives you a pretty serious price cut on one of the fastest 27-inch screens in LG’s current lineup. 

As of June 30, the LG’s 27-inch UltraGear QHD OLED gaming monitor (the 27GX790B-B model) is on sale for only $699.99 at Amazon — with a limited-time deal cutting $300 from its $999.99 list price. 

Shipped and sold by Amazon directly (instead of a third-party seller), free delivery is set for July 5 at the time of writing, or as soon as July 2 for Prime members. Amazon also shows a used “Like New” option for $664.99 through Amazon Resale, if you want to save as much as possible. Anyone wanting the new model directly from Amazon will want to stick with the $699.99 listing. 

This UltraGear is built around a 27-inch QHD OLED panel with a 2560x1440 resolution, giving you a sharper picture than 1080p without asking your PC to push full 4K. If you’re either new to PC gaming or upgrading from a much older rig, this is a very nice middle ground. 

If you’re the type who plays a lot of competitive games, you’ll be a big fan of LG’s Dual Mode: letting you switch between QHD at up to 540Hz or HD at up to 720Hz, depending on whether you care more about sharpness or pure reaction time. Add in the 0.02ms gray-to-gray response time, and games like Counter-Strike 2, Rocket League, Fortnite, and Valorant should feel seriously quick.

The OLED panel should also help with more cinematic games and streaming, with LG listing 335 nits of typical brightness, DisplayHDR True Black 500, UL Verified Perfect Black, and a 1.5M:1 contrast ratio.

That means if you’ll be playing Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced or Grand Theft Auto VI in the future, you’ll be getting richer blacks, stronger contrast, and better detail in darker scenes than you’d expect from a more standard gaming monitor. 

For keeping frames extra smooth, the monitor also supports NVIDIA G-SYNC compatibility and AMD FreeSync Premium Pro. DisplayPort 2.1, dual HDMI 2.1 ports, USB-C, three USB ports, DTS Headphone:X support, and height, tilt, swivel, and pivot adjustments round out the package — so you have all the versatility you need to complete your new immersive setup and then some. 

If you fancy an extra QHD monitor, the 27-inch Odyssey G5 is now only $149.99 at Amazon. As for OLEDs, you can still grab the Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 curved gaming monitor for its lowest-ever price. 

TL;DR: The Magic: The Gathering Marvel Super Heroes Play Booster Box is on sale for $125.95 at Amazon, down from its $209.70 list price.

Magic: The Gathering and Marvel fans have already seen this Play Booster Box bounce through a few decent discounts, but now that the expansion is officially out, Amazon has pushed even harder with a new record low price for this sealed 30-pack display box. 

As of June 30, the Magic: The Gathering Marvel Super Heroes Play Booster Box has been cut in price at Amazon to just $125.95. Compared to its $209.70 list price, that saves you $83.75 and takes 40% off the box — its lowest-ever price confirmed by price tracker camelcamelcamel. Shipped by Amazon directly, you can get standard free delivery for July 5 (at the time of writing), or as soon as July 1 for Prime members. 

That price brings the box down to about $4.20 per Play Booster before tax, which is a pretty big drop from the launch day and preorder prices we were seeing just a few weeks ago. 

Walmart has the same box listed for $125.95 through marketplace seller Cataclysm Games and fulfilled by Walmart itself, with some other seller listings starting slightly lower. TCGplayer is even cheaper on paper, with listings as low as $119.99 plus $4.99 shipping. That’s a total of $124.98, only $1.24 above the trading card selling platform’s estimated market price of $123.75.

If you’re only just learning about this new set of cards, the Marvel Super Heroes expansion brings Marvel’s roster into Magic: The Gathering, with heroes and villains jumping from the comics to the battlefield.

TL;DR: Slurpee Day is back this summer, landing on Saturday, July 11. Customers can grab a free small Slurpee drink from participating 7-Eleven, Speedway, and Stripes stores nationwide.

Summer is quite literally heating up, but 7-Eleven is here to help you stay cool with the return of its mega-popular Slurpee Day. And better yet, the iconic drink is turning 60 this year, so 7-Eleven has a couple more surprises in store for customers.

Landing on Saturday, July 11 (that's 7/11, by the way), Slurpee Day will kick off at participating 7-Eleven, Speedway, and Stripes stores nationwide, with each handing out free small Slurpee drinks to celebrate. If you want to get in on the fun earlier, you can actually score a free large Slurpee drink on July 10 if you make a minimum $20 purchase through the 7NOW delivery app.

There's also a brand new flavor to enjoy this year: Mountain Dew Confetti Chill. If you're curious what that tastes like, 7-Eleven says it "blends bright citrus flavor with notes of sweet vanilla icing, giving fans a zesty lemon cake treat in frozen drink form." It's only available until Aug. 29, so summertime will be your big opportunity to taste this chilly new release. The fun certainly doesn't stop there, though.

Select 7-Eleven and Speedway stores will also be hosting a Slurpee Date experience on Slurpee Day. Whether you're planning to share a Slurpee with a partner or grab one with a friend, this experience will include a photo-op bench, commemorative keepsakes, and limited-edition, bedazzled Slurpee “S” double straws that are "inspired by the brand's diamond anniversary," per the press release.

Romantic, right? Credit: 7-Eleven

What better way to spend a summer day? Don't miss out on all the fun of Slurpee Day on July 11.

Pokémon fans are some of the luckiest when it comes to fun merch, collectibles, and all-ages toys. Earlier this year, we got the first ever Pokémon Lego sets, and in celebration of the little studs turning 30, we have the Pokémon G-SHOCK watch from Casio.

Unlike some themed merch, G-SHOCK went with an excellent but subdued look with the new watch. That's pretty awesome if you're hoping for a fun watch that's also suitable to wear to work. Here's everything we know about the new collab that celebrates Pokémon's 30th birthday.

Features of the new Pokémon G-SHOCK GA110PKM

Let's start with the looks of the Pokémon G-SHOCK. In terms of celebrating the franchise, the watch has a handful of excellent details. There's the Poké Ball inspired inset dial sitting at 9 p.m. with a Pikachu indicator hand, engraving on the back of the watch face, and Pokémon adorned on the watch band.

As if we needed things to get even better, the watch comes in its own packing shaped like a Poké Ball that's well worth displaying on its own, and the outer box features all 30 Pokémon.

If you're interested in some technical information, G-SHOCK made this edition with the same quality and attention to detail we've come to rely on from the brand. It's both shock resistant and magnetic resistant. It's also safe to take in water up to 200 meters deep. Casio says expected battery life is about two years, and it uses a CR1220. In total, it comes in at a lightweight 72 grams.

How to pre-order the Pokémon G-SHOCK GA110PKM

Starting on Wednesday, July 1, you can pre-order the new Pokémon watch from Casio for $270. If you can't wait that long and you live in New York, you can snag the watch from the G-SHOCK SOHO flagship store. Casio also says the watch will be available at select jewelers.

Casio's press release doesn't indicate whether this is a limited edition watch. But given the brand's popularity and the fandom behind Pokémon, we wouldn't be surprised if stock sells out quickly. Be sure to set yourself an alarm for Wednesday if you're hoping to wear one of the best Pokémon collabs to ever drop.

You're not wrong that the modern graphical apps on Linux have improved—by a lot. You're also not wrong to wonder why that improvement hasn't pulled more terminal users over to the graphical side. However, the answer isn't necessarily about loyalty or habit. While I can’t speak for everyone, here’s are five reasons why I personally like using command-line interface (CLI) and terminal user interface (TUI) apps over graphical user interface (GUI) apps.

Erling Haaland has been one of the most popular players so far this FIFA World Cup, both on the pitch and off it.

But with the Norwegian striker's Snapchat already going viral, another video recently started doing the rounds that looked set to top all memes that came before it. In the clip, Haaland is sitting in a restaurant at a table by a mirror, eating. He turns to his left, sees himself in the mirror, and appears to give himself a jump scare before quickly going back to his food.

It's a clip so perfect it seems to good to be true, which is exactly what it is.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. The viral clip of Haaland eating isn't real

Judging by the comments, and the number of shares that clip has had on other platforms, a lot of people seem to think it's real. But as one person pointed out, the footage appears to be an AI edit of this video from TikTok comedy duo Jin Long and Qui Qui.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

That video, in which Jin Long plays a character (you can see multiple examples of him playing the same character on their TikTok page), was uploaded on June 15.

It appears that someone has edited the video — likely using AI — to superimpose Haaland over Long.

As of June 30, the Pokémon TCG Mega Evolution Chaos Rising Booster Bundle is on sale from $50.26 at Amazon. Compared to its $59.99 list price, that saves you $9.73 and takes 16% off the sealed box.

That isn’t the cheapest Chaos Rising price across the whole trading card market. TCGplayer currently lists sealed Booster Bundles from $38.95 plus $2.99 shipping, totalling $41.94 (four cents under market price). Walmart is another backup, selling the box from $45.84. We should note that the third-party seller in this case has a poor record, so buy at your own risk. 

For the best pulls you can get in Chaos Rising with your Booster Bundle, this expansion has plenty of high-value single cards you can get out of any of these packs (or buy individually from TCGplayer): SIR Mega Greninja ex, Mega Hyper Rare Mega Greninja ex, Cinccino ex, Mega Dragalge ex, and Mega Floette ex.

For even more from this expansion, you can still grab the Pokémon TCG’s Chaos Rising Elite Trainer Box on sale at Amazon. Plus, preorders for the upcoming Pitch Black 3 Booster Pack Blister are now $5 off at Amazon.

The Samsung S90F focuses on making everything you watch look cleaner, brighter, and sharper without making you think too much about settings. The TV automatically adjusts picture and sound depending on what’s on screen, whether that’s movies, sports, live TV, or gaming, so you spend less time tweaking default settings.

The smart TV also helps improve lower-quality content, helping older shows and everyday streams look sharper on a 4K screen. Samsung also puts a lot of emphasis on brightness and contrast here, so darker scenes retain more detail while brighter parts of the image stand out without washing things out.

For gaming and sports, the TV is built to keep fast movement looking smooth. The 144Hz refresh rate helps fast-moving scenes look smoother and less blurry, making sports, racing games, and quick camera movements easier to keep up with. Gaming features can also help reduce screen tearing, so gameplay feels cleaner and more responsive.

Grab the Samsung 48-inch S90F on Amazon if a premium TV has been sitting on your wishlist for a while.

So, how does it work? Instead of relying on traditional hot plates, this Dyson tool uses high-pressure airflow to straighten hair as it dries, with precisely heated air distributed evenly through strands for a smoother finish.

It's designed to protect hair health, and is engineered to style without extreme heat damage when used in wet-to-dry mode. The airflow is intelligent too, automatically adjusting depending on how you’re using it. For example, it produces a higher airflow when styling and then senses when hair is not between your arms. It then reduces airflow when not in use for a quieter experience.

This Dyson deal is available at Amazon now, but only for a limited time so don't miss out.

Norway's superstar striker Erling Haaland was benched for their last game, but he'll be back in full force for this Round of 32 match. Haaland's powerful presence means Norway are as good as they've ever been, but Ivory Coast are one of those teams that can sting anyone unexpectedly.

Live coverage will be on Fox and Fox One. Peacock will carry the live Spanish-language coverage.

Watch France vs. Sweden

France have looked better than any team in the tournament so far, even when they took their foot off the gas in the last group game against Norway — a patchy effort that still saw them win 4-1. Sweden could prove tricky competition though. They have major firepower in Alexander Isak and Viktor Gyökeres and determination to overcome their 5-1 loss to Netherlands.

Live coverage will be on Fox and Fox One. Peacock will carry the live Spanish-language coverage.

Watch Mexico vs. Ecuador

Co-hosts Mexico won all three group games and haven't conceded a single goal so far. With electric support in Mexico City, they'll be fired up for another win. But Ecuador have tenacity and guts — as we saw when they scored a shock late winner against Germany in the group stage — and they'll be sure to take the fight to the Mexican squad.

Live coverage will be on Fox and Fox One. Peacock will carry the live Spanish-language coverage.

Mikey Angelo has experienced VidCon from both sides of the camera.

The creator attended his first convention as a fan, idolizing early YouTube stars like Fred and dreaming about one day making videos of his own. Now, five VidCons later, Angelo is walking the convention floor as one of the featured creators and reflecting on how dramatically the internet has changed since those early days.

In this VidCon edition of Creator Playbook, Angelo opens up about building a career by documenting the unfolding of internet culture. His monthly musical recaps have become a staple for followers looking to catch up on everything that happened online, but behind each song are hours of scrolling, note-taking, and deciding which moments deserve a place in the final cut.

"It's basically me regurgitating my own For You Page," he tells Mashable in our VidCon studio.

That constant internet connection comes with its own challenges. Angelo speaks candidly about creator burnout, why he struggles to disconnect from social media, and how he balances keeping up with trends without simply chasing them. Rather than participating in every viral moment, he says he'd rather document them in his own voice — a strategy that's helped him stand out in an increasingly crowded creator economy.

The conversation also explores his hopes of returning to long-form YouTube, his ambitions as a songwriter beyond internet recaps, and why the word "creator" no longer fully captures what many online personalities do today.
