Are you looking to do some home renovations as summer starts to close out and fall approaches next month? Some DIY projects require thousands of dollars worth of tools to complete, but these three power tools can pay for themselves after just one home project.

EV depreciation has created some genuinely absurd bargains, and this high-performance electric crossover might be one of the best examples. When new, it cost more than $60,000. Today, lightly used examples can be found for just over $30,000, roughly the price of a new Toyota Camry.

A brand new trailer for Jordan Firstman's queer drama Club Kid is here, and it's all about the major spanners life can throw in the works.

In his directorial debut, the Rotting in the Sun star also wrote the film and leads as New York City club promoter Peter, whose life with his friends is an endless, drug-fuelled bacchanalian spree, making enough money to get by. When a 10-year-old (The Other Bennet Sister's Reggie Absolom) shows up telling him he's his son, Peter's life is changed overnight, as he faces parenthood in the haze of hedonism.

Cara Delevingne, Diego Calva, Miss Benny, Kirby Howell-Baptiste, and Colleen Camp also star, with Anora Oscar-winner Alex Coco producing with Lurker's Galen Core.

A24 won the bidding war for Club Kid, beating the likes of Focus Features, Netflix, Searchlight, and Mubi among others.

Club Kid, which premiered at Cannes in May to a seven-minute standing ovation, will be showing at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) in September. Then, it hits cinemas Nov. 6.

TL;DR: On Saturday, Aug. 22, Krispy Kreme is giving away one free Original Glazed doughnut to any customer wearing Pokémon merch, no purchase necessary. It's limited to one per guest, available in-store or at the drive-thru, and celebrates the launch of Krispy Kreme's Pokémon Doughnut Collection.

Krispy Kreme is giving Pokémon fans a real reason to raid their closets this weekend. Anyone wearing Pokémon merch to a participating location can score a free Original Glazed doughnut — no purchase required, no strings attached.

How to get your free doughnut

Head to a participating Krispy Kreme location on Saturday, Aug. 22, wearing anything Pokémon-themed — T-shirts, hats, socks, or yes, that onesie — and you'll walk out with one free Original Glazed doughnut. The deal works in-store and at the drive-thru, and it's limited to one doughnut per guest.

The giveaway ties into the launch of Krispy Kreme's Pokémon Doughnut Collection, which came out Aug. 18, celebrating the franchise's 30th anniversary with six new designs. Each one is themed and flavored after a different Pokémon: Pikachu comes filled with lemon Kreme, Charmander is stuffed with chocolate and toasted marshmallow, Squirtle gets a cotton candy buttercream, Jigglypuff is filled with strawberry buttercream, and Bulbasaur is finished with vanilla icing. There's also a Poke Ball-themed design to complete the lineup.

"We had so much fun bringing the world of Pokémon to life through doughnuts in a way only Krispy Kreme can," said Alison Holder, Chief Brand and Product Officer at Krispy Kreme.

Beyond the donuts, Krispy Kreme is selling Original Glazed Gold Dots in collectible Pokémon cups, plus themed dozen boxes.

VLC is one of those programs that most people install once and never think about again. The problem is that VLC does a lot more than just play files, and almost none of it is obvious from looking at the interface. There are plenty of features already built in.

TL;DR: Through Nov. 4, new Tovala customers get a free $299 Smart Oven by ordering meals six times in their first six months. Plans start at four meals a week for $27.98/week (50% off) with $10.99 shipping.

Opens in a new window Credit: Tovala Tovala Smart Oven Get a free $299 Smart Oven and 50% off your first meal delivery when you sign up for Tovala's Labor Day sale. Get Deal

Free stuff always comes with a catch, and Tovala's Labor Day deal is no exception — but this one's a pretty easy trade.

The meal delivery provider will give new customers a $299 Smart Oven for free, as long as they order meals six times within the first six months. Add in 50% off your first meal delivery, and it's one of the cheaper ways to get your hands on a smart cooking gadget and affordable meal plans.

How the deal works:

• New customers get a free Smart Oven (normally $299) after ordering meals six times in their first six months.

• Your first meal delivery is automatically 50% off — you just need to place that first order by 4 p.m. PT on Nov. 4.

• Shipping ($10.99) and taxes aren't included in the discount, and the deal can't be combined with gift cards or other promos.

• If you cancel your meal subscription before your first meal ships, you lose the discount — and it won't come back if you resubscribe later.

Tovala's plans run from four to 16 meals per week, so there's flexibility depending on how many people you're feeding (or how often you want to cook). Pricing ranges from $27.98/week (50% off) for four meals to $111.92/week (50% off) for 16 meals, plus $10.99 shipping either way. Even the smallest plan qualifies you for the free oven.

Plans are flexible, too — you can skip a week, pause, or cancel anytime, so a busy week (or a night you just don't feel like scanning a QR code) won't cost you anything.

Meals arrive mostly prepped, so you're doing about a minute of prep work, like adding a sauce or seasoning, before scanning a QR code with the oven. From there, the oven connects via WiFi to automatically start your meal's chef-perfected cooking cycle, and dinner's ready in 20 minutes or less.

The oven isn't limited to Tovala meals, either. It scans barcodes on grocery staples and frozen foods for one-touch cooking with no preheating, and runs hundreds of preset recipes through the Tovala app. It can also cover the same ground as a conventional oven, with modes for steaming, air frying, baking, broiling, toasting, and reheating, depending on your model.

A free oven and half off your first order make it especially tempting to try Tovala — just get your first order in by Nov. 4.

Today's Connections: Sports Edition will be easier if you know international sports.

As we've shared in previous hints stories, this is a version of the popular New York Times word game that seeks to test the knowledge of sports fans.

Like the original Connections, the game is all about finding the "common threads between words." And just like Wordle, Connections resets after midnight, and each new set of words gets trickier and trickier — so we've served up some hints and tips to get you over the hurdle.

If you just want to be told today's puzzle, you can jump to the end of this article for the latest Connections solution. But if you'd rather solve it yourself, keep reading for some clues, tips, and strategies to assist you.

The NYT's latest daily word game has launched in association with The Athletic, the New York Times property that provides the publication's sports coverage. The sports Connections can be played on both web browsers and mobile devices and require players to group four words that share something in common.

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

Each puzzle features 16 words, and each grouping of words is split into four categories. These sets could comprise anything from book titles, software, country names, etc. Even though multiple words will seem like they fit together, there's only one correct answer.

If a player gets all four words in a set correct, those words are removed from the board. Guess wrong and it counts as a mistake — players get up to four mistakes before the game ends.

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

Players can also rearrange and shuffle the board to make spotting connections easier. Additionally, each group is color-coded with yellow being the easiest, followed by green, blue, and purple. Like Wordle, you can share the results with your friends on social media.

If you like playing daily word games like Wordle, then Hurdle is a great game to add to your routine.

There are five rounds to the game. The first round sees you trying to guess the word, with correct, misplaced, and incorrect letters shown in each guess. If you guess the correct answer, it'll take you to the next hurdle, providing the answer to the last hurdle as your first guess. This can give you several clues or none, depending on the words. For the final hurdle, every correct answer from previous hurdles is shown, with correct and misplaced letters clearly shown.

An important note is that the number of times a letter is highlighted from previous guesses does necessarily indicate the number of times that letter appears in the final hurdle.

The Grand Tour hosts Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May have handed over the keys, with new presenters Francis Bourgeois, James Engelsman and Thomas Holland ready to try their hand at one of the biggest car shows on TV.

In a brand new trailer, the TikTok star (and Mashable 101 alum) and YouTube Throttle House hosts embark on their first Grand Tour, and there's more than sweet burnouts in store. You'll spy an appearance from Formula 1 champ Jenson Button, some kind of challenge to reconstruct a chopped up school bus, and what looks like a Chevrolet Corvette C8 ZR1, Hennessey Venom F5, and Ford Mustang GTD ready for the content creators to test drive.

"Absolute hellfire!" Bourgeois gleefully exclaims in the driver's seat, with 2,031 horsepower behind him. As one commenter on the YouTube video says, "I can't believe I'm saying this but I think this has a chance to work."

The Grand Tour returns to Prime Video on Sept. 6.

As of Aug. 19, the Pokémon TCG Mega Evolution Pitch Black 3 Booster Pack Blister is on sale for $24.61 at Amazon. That takes $5.38 off its $29.99 list price, for an 18% discount, while putting the three included boosters at roughly $8.20 apiece before accounting for the extra promo card. 

Buying the packs separately would currently cost significantly more. Individual Pitch Black-sleeved boosters are $9.99 each on Amazon, so three would total $29.97. Going for the blister instead saves another $5.36 and includes the featured Binacle promo.

If you're a big fan of the Caped Crusader, this set is worthy of a spot amongst your collectibles. The 2,269 pieces come together to form the vehicle from the film, complete with a detailed cockpit and cool details hidden throughout, such as The Penguin's tracking device. The fun of this build doesn't stop there, though.

Surely the coolest part of this set is the fact that the Batmobile can actually transform into the Batmissile. According to the press release, "For the first time in a Lego Batmobile model, builders can press a button to release the vehicle's side panels, revealing the sleek Batmissile escape vehicle hidden within."

Of course, no Batmobile is complete without Batman. This build comes with Michael Keaton's Caped Crusader as a minifigure, "with a newly molded cape," per the press release.

This set is recommended for adults 18 and over. As always, if you know someone younger who wants to give it a try, just help them out. It won't be long before this build is available to buy, so mark your calendar for Sept. 4 (or Sept. 1 if you're a Lego Insider).

The sale is running online and in stores through Sunday, Aug. 23, and dozens of Lego sets are currently marked down across Technic, DREAMZzz, Animal Crossing, Super Mario, Friends, and more. Even better, a lot of the strongest bargains follow the same pattern: up to 30% off the usual price.

Whether you're after something to display, a new Nintendo-themed build, or a much larger set to keep someone occupied for hours, these are the best Lego deals we've spotted.

A Corvette Stingray for less than $42 sounds pretty great, even before remembering this one is made from 732 Lego pieces. The Technic Chevrolet Corvette Stingray has been reduced from $59.99 to $41.99 at Best Buy, saving $18 on the list price.

There is plenty going on underneath that bright yellow bodywork, too. The finished car has functioning steering, a moving six-cylinder engine, and a differential, while both the doors and hood open so you can get a better look at the interior.

For Lego car fans who want something more functional than a standard brick-built model, without spending three figures on one of Technic's massive collector sets, this is easily one of the sale's standouts.

Best Lego DREAMZzz deal Opens in a new window Credit: Lego Lego DREAMZzz Crocodile Submarine Building Kit $48.99 at Best Buy
$69.99 Save $21.00   Get Deal

Getting a 1,107-piece Lego set below $50 is quite a nice steal, and Best Buy has managed exactly that with the DREAMZzz Crocodile Submarine. Its usual $69.99 list price has been cut by $21, leaving you paying only $48.99.

The biggest draw here is that you're technically getting two potential builds in one box. You can assemble the set as the namesake crocodile submarine, complete with a posable head, legs, and tail, or rebuild it into an eagle submarine with adjustable wings.

Both versions come with dual shooters, a hidden compartment, and a minifigure cockpit. Plus, Logan, Zoey, and Arika minifigures are also bundled in alongside a Grimspawn, spiders, and a Blue Treasure Creature, giving the finished build plenty to do once the 1,107-piece project is over.

Blathers's Museum is one of the most familiar buildings in Animal Crossing, and recreating it in Lego form is an even better buy at $24 off.

The 543-piece Blathers’s Museum Collection is down from $79.99 to $55.99, another 30% saving. Along with Blathers and Lily minifigures, the set packs in several little nods to what you'd actually spend your time doing inside the museum in the game.

You can dig up a missing Triceratops tailbone, collect fish for the aquarium, catch butterflies and creepy-crawlies, and even stop off at the included Roost café. The hinged walls and exhibition pieces can also be rearranged, so you're not stuck with only one museum layout once the build is finished.

For something even cheaper, Mario Kart Toad's Garage is only $27.99, down from its standard $39.99 price.

The 390-piece set comes with two Blue Toad pit crew figures and a B Dasher Kart, plus a working car elevator, tools, alternate tires, and customization pieces for swapping out its horn and engine. The kart even has its own shell shooter.

In fact, if you already own compatible Lego Mario, Luigi, or Peach figures, they can be dropped into the kart or used with the action tags for extra digital interactions, as well.

Rosie O'Donnell kicked off her second night of guest-hosting Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Tuesday with another nod to Donald Trump.

The comedian and screen icon, who has a long-time feud with the U.S. president, opened the show talking about Cats: The Jellicle Ball and hoping the brand new Women's Pro Baseball League will be "the biggest lesbian extravaganza of all time." But of course, O'Donnell also shouted out Trump directly.

"This has been kind of a strange experience for me because all of a sudden I'm re-famous. I'm back in the spotlight, all thanks to President Oompa J. Loompa, who is watching us this evening from inside a catering cart," she said.

"You know I couldn't have done it without you, sweetie. You brought me back, just like you did with fascism and the measles."
