Red Hat gutted CentOS in 2020, and after CentOS 7 reached its final EOL in June 2024, countless servers lost their free, stable foundation. Three distributions, depending on who you ask, are filling that gap right now, each with a slightly different philosophy. Here is how CentOS Stream, Rocky Linux, and AlmaLinux compare, and what each means for administrators today.

Keeping on top of NFL scores can feel like a full-time job. If you're in a fantasy league, it can be hard to know how well you're doing without constantly checking your phone. I decided to build a scoreboard using a cheap ESP32 board to keep me informed while I'm at my desk.

Nothing ruins a long drive like losing 30% of your battery before you reach your destination.

A portable power station, like the Anker Solix S2000, can be a lifesaver if you get caught without power during a winter storm. Your food will stay fresh in your fridge, and you can charge your devices to stay in touch with your loved ones.

SAVE $195: As of Oct. 16, the Dyson Airwrap i.d. Multi-Styler for Curly + Coily Hair is on clearance at Best Buy for only $454.99. That's 30% off its suggested retail price of $649.99.

If you're planning on gifting a Dyson Airwrap this holiday season (to a loved one or just yourself), heed my advice: Don't bother putting off your purchase until Black Friday rolls around. Best Buy currently has the special-edition "amber silk" colorway of the Airwrap i.d. for Curly + Coily Hair marked down to only $454.99 as part of a clearance deal. That's a very rare 30% savings.

For some added context, Airwrap discounts usually max out around $150 during the holidays. I should also point out that another model geared toward straight and wavy hair has already sold out at Best Buy at its clearance price of $552.99. (And that's a way worse deal!)

Launched in 2024, the Airwrap i.d. is a mid-tier variant of Dyson's legendary multi-styler with several different attachments and Bluetooth support — meaning you can use the MyDyson mobile app to program a custom hair routine. It was re-released in amber silk for the holidays last year, so I'm assuming Best Buy is just getting rid of its remaining inventory to make way for this season's new limited-edition "plum and copper" finish.

The Curly + Coily version of the Airwrap i.d. comes with conical barrel, diffuser, volumizing brush, loop brush, long barrel, fast dryer, and detangling comb attachments (plus a storage case and filter-cleaning brush).

The Steam Deck was the first truly successful handheld gaming PC, but the market had multiple competitors well before Valve opened the floodgates and ushered in a new era of handheld gaming. The granddaddy of them all was the OpenPandora, which came out back in 2010. In 2016, GPD released the GPD Win, the first proper handheld gaming PC that ran Windows and was powered by an x86 CPU.

SAVE $85: As of Oct. 16, the Yeti Roadie 48 Wheeled Cooler is on sale for $340 on Amazon in the color "venom." That's 20% off its usual sticker price of $425, which is its biggest discount ever.

Late-season clearance sales and early holiday discounts are the perfect recipe for some excellent outdoor deals this time of year. Case in point: Right now, Amazon has the Yeti Roadie 48 Wheeled Cooler on sale for a record-low price of $340, shaving $85 off its MSRP.

The Roadie 48 can hold up to 76 cans (without ice) or 54 pounds of ice (without cans) and is tall enough to fit most wine bottles and two-liter soda bottles, making it ideal for bustling tailgates and watch parties. It has a retractable handle and puncture-resistant wheels, so you can take it just about anywhere. Amazon reviewers have rated it very highly for its cooling performance and mobility.

Note that Amazon's deal only applies to the lime green "venom" colorway, which is a win for Seattle Seahawks fans (or angels who are still bumping Charli xcx's 2024 album, brat). The other colors are still stuck at full price at Amazon and other retailers, including the Yeti website.

Netflix has a few award-winning movies that make for easy streaming on your weekends. From a Christmas romcom full of overlapping love stories to a high-speed action sequel and a fashion-world comedy-drama, these three films offer something different for everyone.

If your work constantly takes you on the go with your laptop, but you're used to working with two monitors, simple tasks on one screen can feel a little crammed. A portable monitor is the best thing you can invest in, allowing you to take a second screen with you, and one of the best you can get right now is the Asus ZenScreen in its 15.6-inch size. The ZenScreen is already at a generally reasonable price, but right now it's even sweeter, as you can grab one from Amazon for under $100.

When you think of Avatar: The Last Airbender and its sequel series, "horror" isn't the first word that comes to mind. While the franchise has dealt with some frightening elements, from Koh the Face Stealer to Korra being haunted by visions of her poisoned self, it has rarely crafted an episode that delves fully into the horror genre.

SEE ALSO: 'Avatar: Seven Havens' episode 5 is chock-full of 'Last Airbender' Easter eggs

The sole exception is The Last Airbender's Book 3 episode "The Puppetmaster," the show's 2007 Halloween special. Throughout the episode, The Last Airbender fashions an unsettling mystery about disappearances from a Fire Nation village during the full moon. By the episode's end, the culprit is revealed to be Hama, a waterbender who's able to manipulate people's bodies by bending the blood in their veins. The bloodbending reveal has lasting consequences, popping up again in The Legend of Korra in a major way, but it also opens the door for some genuinely frightening body horror. No Avatar fan can forget the first time they witnessed the herky-jerky movements of Katara, Aang, and Sokka as they succumbed to Hama's bloodbending. The Legend of Korra ups that body horror significantly, twisting bloodbending victims' limbs to impossible positions, but it's the sinister build-up and Hama's betrayal that keep "The Puppetmaster" standing tall as Avatar's scariest episode.

Now, though, Avatar: Seven Havens has gifted viewers with a new addition to the Avatar Halloween canon with its sixth episode, "Night of the Afflicted."

The episode's name references George A. Romero's classic zombie movie Night of the Living Dead, and it delivers on its promise with a storyline that can only be described as "zombies by way of Avatar."

Want more film and TV news and reviews delivered straight to your inbox? Sign up for Mashable’s Top Stories newsletter or get Mashable push alerts today.

The zombies in Seven Havens are not reanimated corpses, but rather citizens who have been "afflicted" by contact with the diamond anomaly from the show's second episode. In the case of Brigade Commander Bountan (voiced by Clyde Kusatsu), that means getting zapped by the anomaly's energy ray. In the case of Brigade members like Tala (voiced by Anjali Bhimani), that means making contact with the strange red crystals the anomaly left behind, which then embedded themselves in her skin in a case of gnarly body horror.

On top of the crystals, Seven Havens adds further disconcerting physical characteristics to its afflicted to turn them into zombie analogs. The darkened circles around their eyes give them a near-undead look. Meanwhile, their eyes themselves are downright terrifying: glowing, red, and bloodshot. What they see through these eyes is even worse. Under the anomaly's influence, twin Avatars Pavi (voiced by Saheli Khan) and Nisha (voiced by Aishu Devan) turn into downright monsters.

Possessed by fear, the sight of Pavi and Nisha sparks a fit of violent paranoia in the afflicted, resulting in a stampede akin to that of a zombie horde. What follows is a claustrophobic chase through darkened tunnels, the kind that would be right at home in a zombie film.

Threaded through it all is the moving story of Pavi learning to ask for help from Nisha. At the start of the episode, Pavi begins feeling phantom pain from her lost leg. While she waits for a new prosthetic, she uses a crutch and insists she doesn't need assistance from anyone, worrying that her limb difference will make her a lesser Avatar in the eyes of the White Lotus. By the episode's end, though, she overcomes that fear and asks Nisha for help in their fight against a newly manifested anomaly. The question doesn't just aid Pavi: It also aids Nisha, who looked terrified at the thought of facing the spooky diamond alone. Thanks to Pavi's request for help, the twins are able to lean on each other, literally and figuratively, and energybend the anomaly away. Their teamwork puts an end to the zombie story they've found themselves in and sets the stage for the next steps in their joint Avatar journey.

Between its zombie riff and its heartfelt twin story, "Night of the Afflicted" proves to be another strong entry in Seven Havens, as well as its most tonally unique. Pair it with "The Puppetmaster" for extra Avatar spookiness this Halloween season.

Avatar: Seven Havens is now streaming on Paramount+, with new episodes every Friday.

Quick Answer: Choose the Theragun Relief for approachable, everyday muscle recovery, the Theragun Mini for portable recovery and the TheraFace Mask Glo for an upgraded skincare routine. The limited-edition Y2K Grape Blast Theragun Mini adds nostalgic 2000s style to the portable Mini.

Struggling to find the perfect gift for friends and family? Sick of worrying about favorite colors or ideal sizes? Simplify your shopping list by giving the gift of wellness this holiday season and you'll only have to ask one question: Which option benefits my friend's wellbeing the most?

That's where Therabody's self-care lineup comes in handy, especially when you choose one that fits something your giftee already enjoys doing. A massage gun might make sense for the runner who's always complaining about sore legs, while someone with an elaborate skincare routine may get more use out of an LED face mask.

Here's how to find the right Therabody model for each person on your list at Best Buy.

Which Therabody device fits each person on my gift list?

The best Therabody gift comes down to what the person you're shopping for will actually use. Think about whether they're more likely to reach for it after a workout, at their desk, while traveling or during their skincare routine.

A runner can put a massage gun to work after tough workouts, while a frequent traveler may prioritize a compact, lightweight design they can take on a business trip or vacation. For the skincare devotee, the TheraFace Mask Glo brings the focus to self-care, stimulating collagen production for firmer, more radiant skin. Think about how your recipient will actually use the gift, and the right fit becomes much easier to spot.

What to look for when choosing a Theragun

Choosing a Theragun is less about finding the model with the most features and more about figuring out which features you'll actually use. Think about how and where you'll use it, then consider:

• How often you'll use it: Regular recovery or occasional soreness?

• Where you'll use it: Mostly at home or at the gym and while traveling?

• Size, weight and grip: Consider portability, how comfortable it is to hold and whether you can reach areas like your back and shoulders.

• Intensity and speeds: Look at how much control you have over the massage.

• Attachments: Different attachments can target different muscles and areas of the body.

• Noise level: This may matter if you plan to use it around other people.

• Battery life: Frequent users and travelers may want longer stretches between charges.

• Budget: Consider which features matter enough to pay more for.

Theragun Relief vs. Mini: Which one should you gift?

For straightforward everyday recovery, the Theragun Relief is an approachable pick. It weighs 1.37 pounds and boasts one-button control with three speeds, plus standard ball, dampener and thumb attachments for treating different areas.

Theragun Relief is good fit for someone who wants a massage gun without much of a learning curve, whether they're sore after workouts or spend long hours at a desk. And you’re not just giving them a feel-good gift, either: A 2023 systematic review published in the Journal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology found that massage guns may help improve short-term flexibility and range of motion and may support muscle recovery, although research remains limited.

People who travel a lot, meanwhile, may prefer the Theragun Mini 3rd Gen, which CNET’s experts named the best lightweight massage gun. It's Therabody's smallest and lightest Theragun, with three speeds and three attachments, plus Bluetooth connectivity to the Therabody app for additional controls and guided routines.

If it'll mostly live at home, the Relief keeps things simple. If it's going to the gym, out on the golf course or to the airport and everywhere in between, the Mini is easier to bring along.

For someone who's more concerned with skincare than sore muscles, the TheraFace Mask Glo makes more sense.

The wearable mask uses 504 LEDs to deliver red, red plus infrared and blue light across the face. A preset treatment takes 12 minutes, and the head strap adds vibration for a scalp massage.

Research into LED skincare is promising, although expectations should stay realistic. A randomized, double-blind study published in 2025 in Medicine found that a home-use mask combining red LED and infrared light improved crow's-feet measurements compared with a sham device after 16 weeks of use.

The Mask Glo can also slip into an existing skincare routine: Put it on, start the preset treatment and let it cycle through its light modes. For someone who takes their skincare time seriously, it's easy to picture this gift getting regular use.

The limited-edition Y2K Grape Blast Theragun Mini gives Therabody's portable massage gun an early-2000s makeover.

The translucent purple design takes its cues from the colorful, see-through electronics of the Y2K era, but underneath it's a Theragun Mini 3rd Gen. You still get the compact design, three speeds, three attachments and Bluetooth connectivity.

It's a fun pick for someone who'd appreciate a massage gun but doesn't want another black or gray gadget, combining the Mini's portability with a much more eye-catching design.

You can shop Therabody at Best Buy to find a recovery or self-care gift for someone on your list — even if that someone is yourself.

FAQsWhich Therabody is the best gift?

The best choice comes down to how the recipient likes to unwind or recover. Choose the Theragun Relief for everyday recovery, the Mini for portability, the TheraFace Mask Glo for skincare or the Y2K Grape Blast Mini for someone who'll appreciate its limited-edition styling.

Which Theragun is best for travel?

The Theragun Mini 3rd Gen is Therabody's smallest and lightest massage gun, making it the most travel-friendly option covered here. It fits easily into backpacks, gym bags and suitcases, so you can take it wherever you find yourself needing quick relief.

What is the difference between a Theragun and the TheraFace Mask Glo?

Theragun devices use percussive massage for muscle recovery. The TheraFace Mask Glo is a wearable skincare device that uses red, infrared and blue LED light plus vibration massage.

Is there a new Theragun launch this season?

Yes. The limited-edition Y2K Collection includes the Theragun Mini 3rd Gen in Grape Blast, a translucent colorway inspired by the colorful tech of the early 2000s. 

Where can I buy Therabody products?

Therabody products, including Theragun massage guns and TheraFace devices, are available at Best Buy. Shop Therabody at Best Buy to find the device that best fits your holiday wish list.

Samsung and Google make some of the best Android phones you can buy. And even though most flagship phones are nearly the same these days, with huge screens and countless cameras on the back, there are important differences. More than ever, those come in the form of software, and here are a few things my Galaxy S26 can do that my Pixel 11 Pro XL can't.

You remember the wings. You remember the mating bonds. You probably remember Nesta and Cassian's training sessions better than the political situation on the continent (or maybe that’s just me).

But with Sarah J. Maas's next A Court of Thorns and Roses book approaching, some details suddenly feel more pressing. Who is Koschei again? Where did we leave Elain and Lucien? And why are people talking about a sword from an entirely different series?

The last ACOTAR installment, A Court of Silver Flames, gave Nesta a love story, a new community, and a very expensive bargain with the Cauldron. Since then, Maas has expanded this world through her Crescent City books, leaving ACOTAR readers with developments they might have missed.

Here’s what to remember before opening A Court of Splintered Harmony.

Warning: Major spoilers for the published ACOTAR books follow. The Crescent City section also spoils House of Sky and Breath and House of Flame and Shadow.

When does the next ACOTAR book come out?

A Court of Splintered Harmony arrives Oct. 27, 2026. It’s the sixth published installment and carries the subtitle The Valkyrie Cycle, Movement I.

A Court of Forgotten Melody follows on Jan. 12, 2027. Both titles and dates are listed on Maas's official website. Your return to the Night Court could become an extended stay.

What is A Court of Splintered Harmony about?

The official synopsis puts Koschei the Deathless at the center of the threat. Bound to a mountain lake for millennia, he is attracting allies who want to reclaim the human lands.

Prythian is still recovering from the war with Hybern, while betrayals and revelations have divided the Night Court. Everyone will need to work through their issues to confront him.

There are also clues about perspective: A publisher teaser names Lucien in a passage following his thoughts, while another features a character communicating with shadows, strongly suggesting Azriel.

SEE ALSO: Sarah J. Maas announces two new 'A Court of Thorns and Roses' books Which ACOTAR books come before it?

The published reading order is:

1. A Court of Thorns and Roses

2. A Court of Mist and Fury

3. A Court of Wings and Ruin

4. A Court of Frost and Starlight

5. A Court of Silver Flames

The shorter Frost and Starlight bridges Wings and Ruin and Silver Flames. Including it is why the upcoming release is called ACOTAR 6, even if you’ve seen readers count four novels and a novella.

For a targeted reread, start with Silver Flames. Its ending leaves several characters, magical objects, and alliances worth revisiting.

Where did we leave Nesta and Cassian?

By the end of Silver Flames, Nesta has accepted her mating bond with Cassian and defeated the human queen Briallyn. Then Feyre's childbirth crisis forces another decision.

Feyre cannot safely deliver her winged baby, Nyx. Her bargain with Rhysand means her death would also kill him. Nesta uses the Dread Trove and offers back the power she took from the Cauldron to save them, surrendering most of it.

She retains some magic and reveals that she also changed her own body so she could safely carry a winged child. After so much conflict with her family, Nesta ends the book as the person who saves Feyre, Rhysand, and their son.

Why do the Valkyries matter?

Nesta's recovery is closely tied to Gwyn, a priestess, and Emerie, an Illyrian shopkeeper. Through friendship and training, the three revive the traditions of the Valkyries, an ancient order of female warriors.

They're tested when they are kidnapped and forced into the Blood Rite, a dangerous Illyrian trial. Gwyn and Emerie reach the summit of Ramiel; Nesta stays behind to defend the pass so they can continue.

With the upcoming books branded The Valkyrie Cycle, their shared project deserves attention, even if the subtitle doesn’t establish which woman will lead the story.

Who is Koschei, and what does he want?

Koschei is an ancient sorcerer and the brother of the Bone Carver and the Weaver. Confined to a lake on the continent, he still manages to manipulate events beyond it.

He is responsible for the human queen Vassa's curse: She becomes a firebird during the day and returns to human form at night.

In Silver Flames, he works with Briallyn, whose schemes involve acquiring the Dread Trove. Nesta defeats her, but Koschei remains at large — and, according to the new synopsis, his influence is growing.

What's happening with Elain, Lucien, Azriel, and Gwyn?

Elain and Lucien have a mating bond, but she hasn't accepted it. Meanwhile, Elain and Azriel’s attraction becomes explicit in Azriel’s bonus chapter from the Books-A-Million edition of A Court of Silver Flames.

They nearly kiss before Rhysand interrupts. He orders Azriel to stay away, warning that pursuing Elain could provoke a confrontation with Lucien and serious political consequences.

Later, Azriel interacts with Gwyn. After Elain returns the necklace he gave her, he leaves it with Clotho to pass to Gwyn. His response to Gwyn — and his shadows’ behavior around her — has fueled competing romantic theories.

There’s plenty left unresolved, but none of this confirms an endgame pairing.

What is the Dread Trove again?

The three objects central to Silver Flames are the Mask, Harp, and Crown. The Mask can raise the dead, the Harp manipulates passage through space and time, and the Crown can control others.

Nesta’s connection to them comes from having been Made by the Cauldron herself. These objects are separate from the magical weapons she creates during training.

What happened in Crescent City that ACOTAR readers should know?

Skip this section if you want to experience the crossover unspoiled.

At the end of House of Sky and Breath, Bryce Quinlan crosses into the ACOTAR world. House of Flame and Shadow develops that crossover, including her exploration of underground passages with Nesta and Azriel.

Their discoveries connect the Prison’s island to the lost Dusk Court. They also reveal that the Asteri, the powers ruling Bryce's world, are the beings known in Prythian as the Daglan.

Bryce’s Starsword is known in Prythian as Gwydion and is connected to Azriel’s dagger, Truth-Teller. Nesta later lends Bryce the Mask. When Bryce returns it, she also leaves Gwydion with Nesta and encourages her to investigate the eight-pointed star that has repeatedly appeared in her life.

SEE ALSO: Are the 'ACOTAR' leaks real? Here’s what we know, without spoilers. Do you need to read every Sarah J. Maas book first?

For a refresher, prioritize Nesta and the Valkyries, Koschei, the unresolved mating bonds, and the magical objects now in play.

To experience the Crescent City crossover yourself, read House of Earth and Blood, House of Sky and Breath, then House of Flame and Shadow. Maas's official reading guide lists each series in order.

Proxmox has become the go-to distro among the self-hosting community because it is easy to use, feature-rich, and reliable.

Some of the world's biggest tech companies donated tens of millions of dollars for the construction of President Donald Trump's White House ballroom — and now we know exactly how much money they gave to the White House, too.

According to a new report from the Washington Post, Apple and Nvidia topped the list of donors to Trump's ballroom project, giving $25 million each for the president's pet project. The two tech companies were among the top four donors overall, alongside the Adelson Family Foundation and Charles Ergen, the co-founder of Dish Network.

However, Apple and Nvidia were far from the only tech companies to make massive donations for the ballroom.

Google provided $22 million, via a settlement the company made with Trump related to the shutdown of his YouTube channel following the events of Jan. 6, as Mashable reported previously.

Microsoft donated $10 million, and Palantir was right behind them with a near $10 million donation of their own.

Amazon, Meta, and T-Mobile donated $5 million each.

A number of cryptocurrency companies like Coinbase, Ripple, and the Winklevoss twins, who represent their Gemini crypto exchange, also donated $5 million. Crypto exchange Kraken donated $1 million.

HP and Micron each gave the president $2.5 million and Salesforce donated $2 million.

Non-tech companies like defense contractors and the former CEO of Marvel's foundation also gave tens of millions of dollars to the ballroom project.

In Avatar: Seven Havens, the world of Avatar as we know it has been upended by a devastating cataclysm. However, according to the show's fifth episode, some key relics from Aang and Korra's time still remain.

Episode 5, titled "The One Left Behind," sees twin Avatars Pavi (voiced by Saheli Khan) and Nisha (voiced by Aishu Devan) continuing to investigate their mysterious past. Their sleuthing leads them to a secret room in Commander Karthik's (voiced by Akshay Khanna) office, which is filled to the brim with Easter eggs for keen-eyed Avatar: The Last Airbender fans. Clearly, the White Lotus are expert collectors.

SEE ALSO: 'Avatar: Seven Havens' review: The Avatar apocalypse is a bold, brilliant addition to the franchise What Avatar: The Last Airbender Easter eggs are in Karthik's office?

The Easter eggs start as soon as Pavi and Nisha enter Karthik's secret office. First, they pass a series of toys, including a propeller, a toy hog monkey, and a hand drum. These are the Avatar relics, which the Air Nomads use to find their Avatars at a young age. They appear in The Last Airbender's Book 1 episode "The Storm," when the monks tell Aang that he picked the correct four toys from a selection of thousands, proving he is the Avatar's latest incarnation. Right next to the toys is a Kyoshi warrior war fan.

On the wall behind Nisha and Pavi are two other key items from The Last Airbender lore. One is Sokka's water tribe club, which Pavi mistakenly identifies as a back scratcher. Next to it is an instrument that resembles the dramyin that nomad Chong, first introduced in Book 2 episode "The Cave of Two Lovers," plays on his journeys. Given the amount of secret passages and rooms in Ellora, there's no doubt his eternal jam "Secret Tunnel" would fit right in in this new world. Pavi could even join in on her kalimba!

Later, Pavi points out a map of the old world, which is the same map The Last Airbender fans saw in the opening credits of every episode. And as Nisha continues her investigation, you can make out several important artifacts on a bookshelf behind her. The bottom shelf holds another Kyoshi warrior fan, while the middle shelf holds Zuko's Blue Spirit mask. Right above it is a sword, which is likely the meteor sword Sokka forged in Book 3 episode "Sokka's Master."

Also present in the room are some beaded Air Nomad necklaces, which could have been worn by Aang, as well as a red umbrella, which may be the same one he received as a gift from villagers in the Book 1 episode "The Fortuneteller." Other prominent artifacts include a strange lantern, whose bulbous red form feels like something out of the Spirit World; a hanging scroll bearing a painting in the same style as the Avatar Wan episodes in The Legend of Korra; and a set of blue and purple robes that appear to be from the Water Tribe.

Karthik's room is filled to the brim with old radios, which would have been technology from Korra's time. But they're by far the least significant Legend of Korra Easter eggs in the room.

Avatar: Seven Havens gives Korra and Asami their first onscreen kiss. Kind of.

That's because the most important Legend of Korra Easter egg is none other than Korra herself! Karthik's room contains a wooden figurine of her, as well as her girlfriend, Asami Sato, and Pavi makes the two figures kiss.

Although Korra and Asami have kissed in the comics, Pavi's playdate with the toys marks their first onscreen kiss, bringing further joy to Korrasami fans everywhere. The moment is made all the funnier by the fact that Pavi likely has no idea who these two figures are. Her knowledge of the prior Avatar is mainly limited to the frightening mural of Korra bringing about the cataclysm, and the monstrous masks performers wear during the festival, neither of which look anything like this figurine. There has also been no mention of Asami yet as a key figure in Korra's life, suggesting she's absent from Ellora's historical records of the old world.

Basically, Pavi just saw figurines of Korra and Asami and knew they should kiss. (Maybe Korra's spirit was moving her to do so?) You know what that means: Korrasami doesn't just transcend lifetimes. It transcends the whole dang apocalypse.

What other Easter eggs did you catch in Karthik's secret room?

Avatar: Seven Havens is now streaming on Paramount+, with new episodes every Friday.

Spoilers for You Can See Everything below.

A lot is dissected in the nearly three-hour runtime of Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim's new documentary, You Can See Everything, much of it centered on the very Fielderian topics of truth and reality. The question of whether disgraced biotech founder Elizabeth Holmes is lying threads throughout the film, and extends to her X account, which is active even as Holmes is serving her 11.25-year prison sentence.

SEE ALSO: Does 'You Can See Everything' live up to the hype?

Some imprisoned people do post. When asked how he can comment on Instagram from behind bars, Tiger King's Joe Exotic explained, "it's all corrupt girl." But, as revealed in You Can See Everything, Holmes isn't exactly the one with Twitter fingers.

Holmes' X account becomes a point of contention for Fielder and actor Amanda Seyfried, who joins partway through the film to reenact moments that weren't or couldn't be filmed. In Sept. 2025, years into Holmes' time in prison, Fielder and Seyfried scroll through the account to find inflammatory posts that don't sound like her — or are lies. One example is someone who asked Holmes if she ever watched The Dropout, the series based on the Theranos story starring Seyfried. "Holmes" said, "Never will," despite how she watched it on camera for the documentary.

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

As it turns out, the posts are created by her partner, Billy Evans. In You Can See Everything, Evans said he takes it upon himself to post on Holmes' account.

Social media is only one way Evans speaks for Holmes. As shown in the film, he also created an AI version of her to speak to business partners, their children, and the world on social media. (He apparently doesn't care about deepfake explicit imagery that might be created of her.) He has power of attorney for her. He explicitly stated that he feels comfortable speaking for Holmes, and often didn't consult her when making business decisions (their next startup is about — what else? — blood testing).

Since the documentary has been released, viewers have figured out what's going on. The above post and many others have renewed interest, with people replying with memes, call-outs specifically to Billy ("Any update on this Billy"), and calling Holmes/Evans a liar.

The account has posted many times in the last year, and it's unknown whether the words were Holmes' or Evans'. Examples include a eulogy to Lindsey Graham calling him a patriot, cryptic warnings that "No one can stop what's coming," and about Charlie Kirk in the wake of his death. (Evans said in the documentary that he was a fan of Kirk.)

There are also several posts that appear to be screenshots of emails Holmes sent, which are directly her words.

Weeks before the film's wide release on Oct. 16, the pair posted to Holmes' X account stating a new rule: "Starting now, all posts in my own words will be marked -EAH...Posts without that signature are from the team managing this account." The post includes a selfie of Holmes and Evans. Some posts since then, Sept. 27, do have that signature, and others don't.

As of this writing, the latest post on Holmes' X account is, "I really don't think you are ready for this doc." It doesn't contain Holmes' signature.

Apple is about to launch the iPhone Duo, its first-ever foldable phone, and preorders began Oct. 16. The passport-style device starts at $1,999, making it the most expensive iPhone ever. Maxed out with 2TB of storage, it'll run you a cool $3,199 — the same price as a 14-inch MacBook Pro with an M5 Pro chip and the same storage capacity. (Ah!)

The good news is that you don't have to pay full price if you take advantage of various iPhone Duo preorder offers. One major carrier will give it to you for as cheap as $799, provided you trade in an older phone and sign up for certain wireless plans. (That makes the Duo $100 less expensive than the standard iPhone 17.) Below, we've rounded up the best iPhone Duo preorder deals that are currently live.

Heads up: The Apple Store's initial batch of iPhone Duo preorders sold out instantly, and the device is now backordered there until January. You can get it much sooner by placing your preorder through your carrier instead. Most were advertising shipping dates in November or December at the time of writing, and one was still promising release-day delivery.

Patient shoppers can leverage three iPhone Duo carrier deals directly through the Apple Store (both in person and online).

AT&T customers can save up to $1,200 on their new foldable (via 36 monthly bill credits) by trading in an iPhone 14 Pro Max or newer and activating a new AT&T Elite 2.0 or Premium 2.0 plan. Earning the full trade-in amount means you'd only pay $799 for your new iPhone Duo, excluding any applicable taxes or fees.

T-Mobile customers can save up to $1,000 on the iPhone Duo (via 24 monthly bill credits) by coughing up an older device and signing up for an Experience Beyond or Go5G Next plan. That brings it down to $999 — right between the iPhone 17 and the $1,099 iPhone Air.

Meanwhile, Verizon customers can earn up to $840 in trade-in credits through Apple. This is a better deal than what Verizon itself is offering (see below), though it's shipping the Duo way faster.

Trading in your current iPhone through the Apple Store nets you up to $885 in instant credit towards an iPhone Duo. The newer the device, the more credit you'll earn. (The oldest you can go is an iPhone 13, according to a company press release.) You can put that credit towards one of the aforementioned carrier plans, monthly Apple Upgrade payments (see below), or Apple Card Monthly Installments. Here are Apple's maximum trade-in values for older iPhones:

• iPhone 17 Pro Max — $885

Apple Upgrade

Apple Upgrade is the company's relatively new Klarna-powered product leasing program. You can rent an iPhone Duo for as low as $57.99 per month on a 24-month plan. (That doesn't include taxes or any trade-in credit you've earned.) Once your lease term has ended, you can buy your iPhone Duo outright, upgrade it to a newer device, or just return it.

AT&T is offering the same iPhone Duo preorder deal directly on its website: trade in another device and sign up for an eligible unlimited plan to save up to $1,200 (via 36 monthly bill credits). The offer specifically requires an older phone from any brand that's worth at least $230 and an AT&T Elite 2.0 or Premium 2.0 plan.

Shoppers switching to AT&T from a different carrier will get a bonus AT&T Visa Reward card worth up to $800 to pay off their old contract. You can get an additional $200 off just by signing up for your new line online. (Getting paid to stay home and avoid the preorder crowds? You love to see it.)

At the time of writing, AT&T's iPhone Duo preorders were set to ship in early November.

You'll get a bonus Virtual Prepaid Mastercard worth up to $800 if you switch to T-Mobile from another carrier, give up your old phone, and activate a new line.

New Xfinity Mobile Plus customers and existing Diamond members with a Mobile Plus plan can also preorder an iPhone Duo for as low as $999 with an eligible trade-in. Current Mobile Plus customers who aren't yet Diamond members can get the Duo for as low as $1,499 with a trade-in. ("Diamond" is the highest tier of Xfinity's membership program. It's reserved for customers who have been with the carrier for at least a decade and those who use four of its services.)

Your savings will be applied as 36 monthly bill credits, and your preorder should ship on release day.

Verizon is just waiving activation fees on iPhone Duo preorders for new and Verizon Loyalty customers — a $40 value. Verizon Loyalty is a free-to-join rewards program that offers 3% back in "Verizon Dollars" every month, plus exclusive access to certain sweepstakes, dining discounts, gift cards, and concert presales.

While this offer doesn't save you as much as the Apple Store's trade-in deal for Verizon customers, Verizon's iPhone Duo preorders were shipping as soon as mid-November the last time I checked. In other words, go this route if you'd rather have a Duo in hand well before the new year than save a chunk of cash.
