My jailbroken Kindle now has Wikipedia built in—no internet required
I hate it when the internet goes down, or I can't get cell reception. We tend to take it for granted that we have access to insane amounts of information from our phones, and only appreciate it when it's gone. I wanted to create something that would let me access some of that information even when I was offline, so I decided to turn my old Kindle into a Wikipedia archive.
This Google Maps setting helps me save gas, but you might have it configured wrong
Google Maps is one of the best ways to get around because of how it adapts. Things like traffic and construction zones are taken into account, but so is fuel efficiency. However, it’s not a one-size-fits-all setting, and you probably haven’t touched it.

I built my homelab like a real datacenter—here's what actually matters
Once, my homelab was a simple setup. I had an old PC stuffed into a corner of my basement with a few Raspberry Pis haphazardly scattered on the top of the case. However, as my setup has grown in usefulness and complexity, I had to seriously reevaluate how everything was configured so that it was consistently useful.
Im watching the British GP for free this weekend — how to live stream F1 for free
TL;DR: In the UK, Channel 4 will be providing live coverage of the 2026 British Grand Prix for free. In the U.S., sign up for a 7-day free trial of Apple TV+ through Prime Video Channels to watch select F1 races for free.

When is the British GP?The British GP is the ninth race of the 2026 F1 season. Here's the full schedule from Silverstone:
Practice 1 — 7:30-8:30 a.m. ET on July 3
Sprint Qualifying — 11:30 a.m. to 12:14 p.m. ET on July 3

Qualifying — 11 a.m to 12 p.m. ET on July 4

Fans can follow all the action from this race weekend without spending anything.
How to watch the British GP for freeIt's important to note that Channel 4 will be providing live coverage of the 2026 British Grand Prix for free in the UK. That's nice and easy for fans in the UK.
If you're based in the U.S., you'll need to take a few additional steps to watch this race weekend for free.
I subscribe to Amazon Prime. I subscribe for the fast shipping, exclusive Prime Day deals, and access to Prime Video. It's the access to Prime Video that becomes all-important for F1 fans.
It is now possible to sign up for a seven-day free trial of Apple TV+ through Prime Video Channels. F1 is exclusive to Apple TV in the U.S., so by accessing this free trial, you can watch select races for free this season. The subscription costs £9.99 per month after the trial ends, but you can cancel this renewal at any time. By cancelling ahead of the renewal, you can watch the British GP this weekend without spending anything.
I understand the argument that I'm not really watching for free because I subscribe to Amazon Prime. I get that, but Amazon Prime does offer a 30-day free trial period if you're new to the service. By signing up for this free trial and then gaining access to Apple TV through Prime Video Channels, you can truly watch select races for free this season.
If you've already used this hack to watch a race this season, there are some alternatives.
My recommendation is to go direct to Apple TV. This popular steaming service comes with a seven-day free trial for new subscribers. Alternatively, Apple One bundles Apple TV with Apple Music, Apple Arcade, Apple Fitness Plus, Apple News Plus, and 50GB of iCloud Storage for $19.95 per month after a one-month free trial.
The best Apple TV free-trial offer comes with purchases of new Apple devices. New subscribers can get three months of Apple TV for free after purchasing any eligible Apple product. If you're planning on buying something from Apple, you could gain access to Apple TV for a pretty large chunk of this season. You will obviously need to buy something, but if you were already in the market for an upgrade, this method makes a lot of sense.

Lando Norris secured an incredible title victory on the final day of last season. Now the pressure is on McLaren to defend that title against a long list of talented drivers and motivated teams.

Why a full-size truck is overkill: 4 midsize pickups that do the real work
The midsize pickup manages to be popular and overlooked at the same time. In 2025, Toyota sold nearly 275,000 Tacomas in the U.S., even outselling the Corolla. Yet it is the full-size and heavy-duty trucks that often steal the headlines thanks to their staggering tow ratings and prodigious power outputs.

Why I stopped installing apps the traditional Linux way
Installing programs on Linux is a fairly simple process. Using a package manager and an installation command ( sudo apt install [program name] for example) in your terminal installs an application, assuming it's available in your distro's repositories. As I grew more experienced with the operating system, I stopped installing Linux apps the traditional way, largely because the other options offer more control, variety, and customization.
July 4th fireworks livestreams: See the best Fourth of July fireworks live
Happy 4th of July, America. This year's Independence Day celebrations are a little extra special as we celebrate the United States of America's 250th birthday.
Across the country, many people will spend the day at the beach or at a barbecue, capping the night off with a fireworks display. But, if you're spending the night indoors, there are still plenty of ways to celebrate with an array of July 4th fireworks livestreams.
Macy’s 4th of July FireworksPerhaps the most well-known of the Independence Day celebrations is the Macy's 4th of July fireworks. If you live in NYC, you can catch them live. Otherwise, you can tune into NBC or Peacock at 8 p.m. on July 4th to watch the show.
While the U.S. is celebrating its 250th, Macy’s 4th of July Fireworks is also celebrating a milestone with its 50th anniversary this year.
PBS's America Made in Virginia: 250 Years TogetherWhile many of the livestream options on this list will require a paid subscription to a particular streaming platform, PBS is airing its 4th of July special on YouTube for absolutely free.
America Made in Virginia: 250 Years Together will start at 8 p.m. on July 4th and culminate in a fireworks and pyrotechnics display from Colonial Williamsburg.
Disney Celebrates AmericaDisney is also getting in on the 250th anniversary of the United States celebrations with its own event.
Disney+, Hulu, and the ESPN app will stream a 24-hour broadcast called "Disney Celebrates America" that checks in on 4th of July celebrations around the country, which will ostensibly include at least a few fireworks displays. The grand finale, Star-Spangled Bash in Nashville, will also be hosted by ABC and deliver one of the country's largest fireworks and drone shows.
The broadcast kicks off at 10 p.m. on Friday, July 3rd, with the main event out of Nashville starting at 8 p.m. on July 4th.
Freedom 250 fireworks displayThere's been a lot of controversy surrounding President Donald Trump's own Freedom 250 group, set up to lead Trump's 250th anniversary celebrations. You've probably seen the memes about the lackluster attendance for Trump's Great American State Fair all week.
With that said, Freedom 250 is claiming they're about to have a record-breaking 40 minute long firework display on the 4th of July with more than 850,000 fireworks. And, according to the group, the MonumentCam atop the Washington Monument will be the premier free-to-watch livestream to watch it all.
The Great American Block Party 250Paramount+ and CBS are hosting their own 3-hour Independence Day special at 8 p.m. on July 4th.
Like Disney's, the show will check in on 4th of July celebrations and firework displays from around the country. The broadcast will also culminate in their own feed of Freedom 250's Washington, DC, fireworks display.
I found the best robot vacuums for every floor, budget, and level of laziness
I test new robot vacuums on a regular basis and compare them to the top performers from previous months, with all my evaluations taking place in my own home on various rugs, tile, and hardwood floors. As I test each robot vacuum and tweak its settings for optimal performance, I keep notes on its overall suction power vigor, scrubbing efficacy (if it's a robot vacuum and mop combo), pet hair pickup, the convenience of its automatic emptying and self-washing mopping pads, accuracy of smart mapping and small obstacle avoidance, and the overall user experience. But the final boss here is cost efficiency — I'll be the first one to point out when a cheap robot vacuum actually works well for the price, or when a high-end robot vacuum is actually worth the splurge or not.
SEE ALSO: Robot vacuums vs. stick vacuums: Shopping advice from someone who has both Recent changes to this guideJuly 2026: I added the Narwal Flow 2 as the new pick for best roller mop robot vacuum overall, bumping the Roborock Qrevo Curv 2 Flow to the best roller mop robot vacuum under $1,000. The Narwal Flow 2 has stronger suction power and more advanced AI spill detection.
March 2026: I added the Roborock Qrevo Curv 2 Flow as the best roller mop robot vacuum, replacing the Dreame Aqua10 Ultra Roller. Though the Dreame has more powerful suction on paper, the Curv 2 Flow demonstrated better edge mopping and comparable vacuuming. I also replaced the Eufy X10 Pro Omni with the Eufy C28 and shifted it to my budget roller mop pick. The X10 Pro Omni is two years old at this point, and the new C28 offers more advanced cleaning and obstacle avoidance.
January 2026: I added the Dreame X60 Max Ultra Complete as the best robot vacuum right now and shifted the Aqua10 Ultra to the best roller mop robot vacuum. The Roborock Saros 10R, which was listed as the best option for corner cleaning, has been removed from the list. It costs nearly the same amount as the X60 Max Ultra Complete, which has near-identical corner mopping abilities and much stronger suction power.
December 2025: I added a disclaimer to the pick for best Roomba value in light of iRobot's bankruptcy news.
October 2025: I added the Dreame Aqua10 Ultra Roller as the best robot vacuum right now and shifted the Roborock Saros 10R (previously named the best robot vacuum right now) to the option for best corner cleaning.
July 2025: I removed the Shark Matrix Plus 2-in-1 robot vacuum from this guide. While it was a solid budget mopping robot vacuum for its first year or so on the market, it's now a little bit too basic compared to other newer budget robot vacuums.
The Black Mirror Experience made me sick to my stomach
A virtual reality experience that asks attendees to sign over their biometric data sounds like the start of an episode of Black Mirror. But it's actually the reality of the Black Mirror Experience, now open at The Shed in New York City.
SEE ALSO: Every 'Black Mirror' episode ever, ranked by overall dreadThe experience guides you through the halls of Phaethon Labs, a futuristic company where you can build a digital clone of yourself called a LifeAgent. This AI clone is able to do all the unpleasant tasks you don't want to do, plus set you up for success when it comes to your life goals. All it and the Black Mirror Experience need from you are your name, your life goals, and your face and voice. You cannot participate in the experience without consenting to the use of your face and voice.
In a world where our personal data is sold and packaged on the daily, you may think, "What's one more consent form, right?" But for anyone who's seen Black Mirror, the idea of giving up your likeness is enough to raise red flags. (Or, if you're like me, it'll make you full-on queasy.) Plus, there is precedence for concern: Remember when Netflix used users' photos in billboard ads tied to "Joan is Awful"?
SEE ALSO: 'Black Mirror's Jimmi Simpson on his favorite episodes, the big 'USS Callister: Into Infinity' reveal, and moreIf you feel discomfort about giving up biometric data for a fun VR outing, staffers at the Black Mirror Experience will walk you through what the process actually entails. Your data is stored by UNIVRSE, the VR company behind the experience, for four weeks following your trip through Phaethon Labs. If you would like your data to be deleted earlier, there's an e-mail address you can reach out to. I did so, and the response to my request was speedy and helpful.
Once you get past the biometric data hurdle and strap on your VR headset, what's next? Attendees go through a "neural scan" to better understand what their LifeAgent can do for them. This involves playing mini games and telling Sigmund Freud about a recent dream. (Yes, really.) The latter sequence also involves AI-generated responses from Freud where he analyzes your response and cooks up an AI image of said dream.
Credit: Banijay Live StudiosAfter that, you finally meet your LifeAgent, a digital replica with your face and voice. The results brought back my nausea in full force. My LifeAgent was a postcard straight from the uncanny valley, one that prompted me to consider the AI technology behind it and how fast it has advanced over the past few years. I had signed up to have this version of me made, but we also live in a world where anyone can make AI deepfakes of anyone else, with examples ranging from viral memes to film and TV studios resurrecting deceased actors. (For its part, the Black Mirror Experience uses human performers. Karina Matas Piper voices Phaethon Labs founder Cody Winters, while James Phillips voices various characters. Elsewhere, Imanol Dieguez serves as the mocap actor.)
After the unsettling reveal of your LifeAgent, the rest of the Black Mirror Experience rings oddly hollow. Instead of truly interrogating the implications of AI deepfakes and concerns of privacy and misinformation, it launches you into a sci-fi action sequence. The VR environments here are impressive, especially a series of labyrinthine tunnels and a vast underground construction facility. However, none of this bombastic action feels in tune with the true spirit of Black Mirror, whose episodes most often build to devastating conclusions instead of rollicking shoot-outs.
The Black Mirror Experience doesn't let you sit in that dread long enough. It only briefly gestures out to the problems its AI LifeAgents could cause, ranging from alienation from simple human tasks to full-on identity theft. But then it turns around and revels in AI technology, even turning your AI-created LifeAgent into a souvenir video for you to remember this dystopian trip by. Staring at the eerie grin plastered over my AI self's face in my own souvenir video, I kept thinking of one of Black Mirror's most prescient reminders: If you give tech companies an inch, they'll take a mile.
The Black Mirror Experience is now at The Shed until Sept. 6.

Shop Now Opens in a new window Credit: Apple Apple iPhone 17 Pro Free when you switch to T-Mobile and bring your number on an Experience More or Experience Beyond plan. Shop NowAll we seem to hear about these days are price increases. Apple just bumped up the prices on its iPad and Mac lineups, RAM prices are about to rise nearly 50 percent, and smartphone price hikes are surely on the way.
So imagine our delight when we see that you can still score an Apple iPhone 17 for free with T-Mobile.
T-Mobile has dropped a fresh batch of free iPhone deals to beat the price increases:
Apple iPhone 17 — free when you trade in your eligible phone on an Experience More or Experience Beyond plan.
Apple iPhone 17 Pro — free when you switch to T-Mobile and bring your number on an Experience More or Experience Beyond plan (no trade-in needed).
Of course, T-Mobile isn't simply handing over these latest handsets as a favor. Instead, the retail cost of your new phone is offset by 24 consecutive monthly bill credits. Your monthly statement will show a standard charge for financing the phone, which is immediately balanced out by an equal credit to bring that charge to zero.
What's happening here is you are signing up for a 24-month commitment with the network. If you decide to cancel your service, switch to another carrier, or upgrade to the iPhone 18 before those 24 months are up, the remaining unpaid balance on the phone's retail value will become due immediately.
You will also need to cover the standard upfront taxes and a one-time $35 activation fee. But that's a small price to pay to lock in the iPhone 17 before Apple's prices bump up again.
