The Ford Edge never became the go-to midsize SUV that models like the Toyota Highlander or Honda Pilot did. It was easy to overlook, even though it offered a roomy two-row cabin, standard all-wheel drive, useful technology, and a choice of turbocharged engines.

Finding a new SUV for around $25,000 usually means accepting a stripped-down interior, limited technology, and a cramped cabin. This newly redesigned crossover challenges that expectation, combining a surprisingly upscale interior with a long list of standard tech and more passenger and cargo space than you'd normally expect at this price.

Android phone makers are offering less RAM in their latest devices to keep costs down. Now, Google is calling on Android app makers to limit the performance hit. As of February 2027, Android apps on the Play Store will have to meet "bad behavior thresholds" to stay on Google's good side.

Hyundai thinks it has found a solution to one of the biggest problems holding EVs back. Its first extended-range electric vehicle is due in 2027, promising more than 600 miles of total range by combining electric motors with a gasoline engine that works as a generator.

There’s a certain thrill in opening a brand-new phone. You peel off the plastic, transfer your photos, sign in to your Google account, and start taking your first picture. But in all that excitement, we often forget to check a few important settings that can make our phone better.

The universe really wants me to buy another external hard drive or sign up for an online storage service. I currently have a Western Digital My Passport, with 1 TB of storage. I should have bought a second one before the AI boom, but I never got around to it. I'm kicking myself for that (poor) decision right about now. So, now I'm going to try to save all of that data. But we have a big problem: the price for storage media is higher than ever, and I'm not sure how many read/write cycles this drive has left in it. So I improvised a solution that, surprisingly, worked.

Linux has never been short of ambitious projects. Some became major parts of the ecosystem, while others disappeared after only a few years. What makes some of them worth remembering is not simply that they were popular. They represented ideas that made Linux feel experimental, unusual, and genuinely exciting.

Want an adjustable desk? Then Secretlab's Labor Day sale is for you, offering $100 off the MAGNUS Pro desk.

Hands-free highway driving has grown from a novelty feature into a full subscription business over the past decade, with GM's Super Cruise and Ford's BlueCruise combining for more than 1.8 billion hands-free miles driven so far. Both systems handle steering, acceleration, and braking on compatible highways with a driver-facing camera to confirm the person behind the wheel is still watching the road.

Of all the Linux commands, rm is notorious. It's easy to completely wipe out your system with one mislaid rm command as root. I knew not to, but I ran that command on purpose anyway. Here's why.

First, you watched a series of great movies on Paramount+ with runtimes under two hours. Now, we're cutting that runtime to 90 minutes or less, meaning this list is for people who are strapped for time and need something quick.

Brave is doing what Mozilla won't. Mozilla hasn't innovated in years. I don't know about you, but I'm tired of waiting. I have limited options, yet Brave ticks the right boxes. Here are the reasons I left Firefox behind.

The Honda CR-V Hybrid has been one of the stronger players in the hybrid SUV market for years, and it's easy to see why. It looks good, has plenty of useful features, and does a lot of things well without making everyday driving complicated.

Charging a phone should be boring. You plug it in, it charges, you move on. When that stops working reliably on a Samsung, the usual instinct is to swap cables, restart the phone, and wait to see if it fixes itself. That works sometimes, but it misses real causes that add up over time. Luckily, Samsung actually built some diagnostic features right into an app on your phone.

Ring is at last addressing some of its longstanding privacy issues by limiting its access to your security camera videos. The Amazon brand has introduced a TAKE (Throw Away the Key Encryption) security strategy that it claims will improve privacy for your footage while still enabling a raft of smart home features.

Too many people treat Ethernet cables like an afterthought. You use whatever cable is included with your router, or you buy a random Ethernet cable off of Amazon without verifying whether it actually suits your needs. The thing is, what actually separates budget cables from premium ones isn't obvious from the outside. If you test a premium cable against one that is super cheap, you'll end up with a pretty different experience, but you woundn't know that from just looking at them.

In typical Milwaukee fashion, your favorite cordless power tool brand just unveiled several exciting new tools that are still coming later this year. If you need or want more tools, and who doesn't, new Milwaukee products are on the way and will absolutely be worth the wait.

It's been over 20 years since I had to compile a Linux kernel, and that's because the boxed copy of Red Hat Linux someone gifted me wasn't going to work with my PC back then without adding stuff that is standard today.

My movie collection has been through many iterations. It started life on VHS, then moved to DVD, before I ripped all those DVDs so that I could stream them using Jellyfin. I always planned to get a Blu-ray player one day so that I could keep a physical collection in higher quality. I hoped that eventually Blu-ray players would come down in price, but it looks like that's just never going to happen.
