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 Full Moon is finally here, and this one has a name you might recognize: the Harvest Moon. It reaches its fullest point on Saturday, September 26, but it'll look full for a couple of nights around that date too.

What is today’s Moon phase?

As of Saturday, Sept. 26, NASA's Daily Moon Guide tracker tells us the Moon is in the Full Moon phase, with 100% of its surface visible.

There's so much to see tonight, with or without visual aids. With just your naked eye, you'll be able to see the Mare Crisium, Mare Fecunditatis, and the Oceanus Procellarum. If you have binoculars, they'll also help you see the Posidonius Crater, the Alphonsus Crater, and the Mare Frigoris. And, if you have access to a telescope, you'll see the Apollo 12 and 16 landing spots, and the Schiller Crater.

When is the next Full Moon?

The next Full Moon will take place on October 25 or 26, depending on your timezone.

What are Moon phases?

The Moon goes through a repeating cycle as it orbits Earth, taking roughly 29.5 days to complete. During that time, the amount of its sunlit side visible from Earth changes, giving us the different lunar phases. It starts with a slim crescent, grows to a half Moon and eventually reaches the Full Moon, before beginning the cycle again. NASA explains that which phase we see depends on where the Moon is in relation to Earth and the Sun.

The eight phases are:

New Moon - The Moon is between Earth and the sun, so the side we see is dark (in other words, it's invisible to the eye).

Waxing Crescent - A small sliver of light appears on the right side (Northern Hemisphere).

First Quarter - Half of the Moon is lit on the right side. It looks like a half-Moon.

Waxing Gibbous - More than half is lit up, but it’s not quite full yet.

Full Moon - The whole face of the Moon is illuminated and fully visible.

Waning Gibbous - The Moon starts losing light on the right side. (Northern Hemisphere)

Third Quarter (or Last Quarter) - Another half-Moon, but now the left side is lit.

Waning Crescent - A thin sliver of light remains on the left side before going dark again.

The NYT's latest daily word game has become a social media hit. The Times credits associate puzzle editor Wyna Liu with helping to create the new word game and bringing it to the publications' Games section. 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 of 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 until 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.

Today's NYT Strands hints will be easy if you're light as a feather.

Strands, the New York Times' elevated word-search game, requires the player to perform a twist on the classic word search. Words can be made from linked letters — up, down, left, right, or diagonal, but words can also change direction, resulting in quirky shapes and patterns. Every single letter in the grid will be part of an answer. There's always a theme linking every solution, along with the "spangram," a special, word or phrase that sums up that day's theme, and spans the entire grid horizontally or vertically.

By providing an opaque hint and not providing the word list, Strands creates a brain-teasing game that takes a little longer to play than its other games, like Wordle and Connections.

Originally created by engineer Josh Wardle as a gift for his partner, Wordle rapidly spread to become an international phenomenon, with thousands of people around the globe playing every day. Alternate Wordle versions created by fans also sprang up, including battle royale Squabble, music identification game Heardle, and variations like Dordle and Quordle that make you guess multiple words at once. 

Wordle eventually became so popular that it was purchased by the New York Times, and TikTok creators even livestream themselves playing.

The best Wordle starting word is the one that speaks to you. But if you prefer to be strategic in your approach, we have a few ideas to help you pick a word that might help you find the solution faster. One tip is to select a word that includes at least two different vowels, plus some common consonants like S, T, R, or N.

What happened to the Wordle archive?

The entire archive of past Wordle puzzles was originally available for anyone to enjoy whenever they felt like it, but it was later taken down, with the website's creator stating it was done at the request of the New York Times. However, the New York Times then rolled out its own Wordle Archive, available only to NYT Games subscribers.

If your desktop or laptop keeps lighting up in the middle of the night without you touching it, the cause is almost always traceable. It's a common complaint, and one that tends to get written off as a glitch or a haunted machine, when in reality Windows almost never wakes itself up without a specific trigger behind it.

I've spent a lot of time replacing Google apps and services with alternatives, and have moved on from Google Maps, Chrome, Photos, and even Search.

Complex processes are hard to explain in a paragraph, but most diagramming software charges a recurring fee for the privilege of drawing them out. Microsoft Visio Professional 2024 turns data, processes, and workflows into visuals anyone can follow. Normally, a lifetime license would cost $579.99, but during this limited-time flash sale, you can pick one up for only $49.97.

Flowcharts, process maps, floor plans, network diagrams, and organizational charts all start from pre-built templates, so a blank canvas is never the first thing you face. More than 250,000 shapes are included, enough for nearly any field, whether the job is a quick flowchart or a detailed engineering layout. Updated shapes, refreshed styles, and a new search bar make it faster to find the right element than digging through menus.

Data linking separates Visio from a regular drawing app. Pull numbers from Excel, SQL Server, or another database, and your diagram updates on its own as that data changes. That means you can keep a network map or dashboard up to date without constantly having to enter new data.

There are even real-time collaboration tools, so your whole team can work on the same diagram and see changes in real time. If you’re already running Microsoft 365, you can even connect Visio, embed a diagram in PowerPoint, Word, or Teams, and store the file in OneDrive or SharePoint.

Stop paying every year to draw the same diagrams. Take advantage of this flash sale and get a Microsoft Visio Professional 2024 lifetime license on sale for $49.97. Sale ends Oct. 4 at 11:59 p.m. PT.

Taylor Swift is looking back, and this time, she has an apology to make.

On Friday, Swift released The Life of a Showgirl: The Encore, an expanded edition of her 2025 album featuring four new songs: "Patient Zero," "Cleveland!," "Pink Clouding," and "Babylon." And while Swifties are already busy parsing all four tracks for clues, "Pink Clouding" has prompted two particularly pressing questions: What exactly does "pink clouding" mean? And who is Swift singing about?

The answer to the first question is surprisingly specific. The second is much more complicated.

What does "pink clouding" mean?

"Pink clouding," sometimes called "pink cloud syndrome," is a term associated with addiction recovery. It describes a period of euphoria, optimism, and excitement that some people experience during the early stages of recovery. Think of it as a kind of honeymoon phase in which things suddenly feel possible again, and a person may feel unusually confident about what's ahead.

But the pink cloud doesn't necessarily last. As the initial euphoria wears off, the more difficult realities of maintaining recovery can come back into focus.

It's worth noting that "pink cloud syndrome" isn't a formal medical diagnosis. Rather, it's a term commonly used within recovery communities to describe an experience some people have in early sobriety.

Swift doesn't suggest that she's using "pink clouding" literally in the song. Instead, the phrase becomes a metaphor for another kind of intoxicating high: the rush of a new relationship entered before you've fully recovered from the last one.

And suddenly, all that pink starts looking a little less rosy.

What are Taylor Swift's "Pink Clouding" lyrics about?

"Pink Clouding" begins like a love song. Swift fills its opening moments with shades of pink — magenta, fuchsia, rosewood — recalling the overwhelming color and intensity of a new romance. Then comes the catch: Swift admits that neither person knew at the time that she was lying. Not necessarily about wanting the relationship, but about how ready she was for it.

"Met the magenta sunrise

Fuchsia forever intertwined

Threw the rosewood on the fire

Neither of us knew at the time

That I was a liar"

Throughout the song, Swift describes the intoxicating feeling of being wanted and of making promises to someone, while simultaneously revealing that she had entered the relationship wounded by someone else. She says this previous person had left her emotionally depleted and describes her new partner as having met her at a particularly bad moment.

"He cut me crimson, bled me dry

He crossеd my heart, I hoped to die (Hopеd to die)

Ripped all my orchids from the vine

You met me at a cursed time

I told you I was fine"

That's where the title begins to click into place. Swift had convinced herself that she was fine. She could fall in love again. She could make promises. She could experience the thrill of being wanted by someone new. She was, in her words, "pink clouding from the thrill of it."

Years later, however, Swift looks back on that relationship differently. Much of the song is framed as an apology to someone she believes she hurt. She worries that she may have left lasting scars on a "good person" who didn't deserve the way she treated them.

"I hope you realized my kind of trouble wasn't worth it

And the way I treated you, you never deserved it

And I swear to God, to this day

I wake up scared that I left scars on a good person"

It's an extremely self-critical perspective for a breakup song, and not unlike Speak Now's "Back to December." The heartbreak Swift is examining isn't primarily her own. She's reckoning with the possibility that, while she was chasing the emotional high of something new, someone else believed the relationship was more permanent than she did.

By the end, the metaphor has completely flipped. The pink cloud isn't simply where Swift was floating when the relationship began. It's where she fears she left the other person when she came back down.

Who is Taylor Swift's "Pink Clouding" about?

Swift hasn't said. And despite what your TikTok For You page may tell you over the next several days, there isn't enough in the lyrics to definitively identify the person she's addressing. That hasn't stopped Swifties from trying.

One of the most prominent theories to emerge following the song's release is that "Pink Clouding" could be about Tom Hiddleston, whom Swift briefly dated in 2016. The fling may have lasted only three months, but at least it gave us those iconic Fourth of July photos.

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

The theory largely hinges on the timeline Swift appears to describe. In "Pink Clouding," she sings about entering a relationship shortly after being badly hurt by someone else, only to later recognize that she wasn't emotionally prepared for what came next. For fans, that immediately called to mind another song in the Swift canon: "Getaway Car."

Why do fans think "Pink Clouding" is about Tom Hiddleston?

Swift and Hiddleston were romantically linked in the summer of 2016, shortly after the end of Swift's relationship with Calvin Harris. Their whirlwind romance played out very publicly — from Rhode Island to Rome — before ending a few months later.

Swift has never explicitly confirmed that "Getaway Car," from 2017's Reputation, is about Hiddleston. But the song has long been interpreted by fans as Swift's account of entering a new relationship as an escape from an old one, and knowing, on some level, that a romance born as a getaway wasn't likely to last. Now, some Swifties are hearing "Pink Clouding" as a much more remorseful companion piece.

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

There are obvious thematic parallels. Both songs describe the exhilarating beginning of a relationship, shadowed by what came immediately before. Both acknowledge that the relationship may have been doomed by its circumstances. But where "Getaway Car" treats that inevitability almost mischievously, "Pink Clouding" looks back at the person on the other side of it with regret. The narrator isn't asking why the relationship failed. She's asking whether she hurt someone who didn't deserve it.

That doesn't prove the song is about Hiddleston. Other fans have floated different former partners, including Taylor Lautner, Harry Styles, and Joe Alwyn, and Swift herself has not publicly identified the song's subject.

The more revealing question may not be who Swift is singing about, but why she's returning to this particular emotional dynamic now.

"Pink Clouding" is not all that interested in identifying the person left behind but rather in examining the uncomfortable clarity that comes after the cloud disappears. Something can have felt real in the moment, Swift seems to suggest, while still being shaped by feelings you didn't yet understand.

And sometimes you don't realize someone else got hurt until long after you've landed back down to earth.

Motorola makes great phones like the Razr Fold, but its U.S. presence is... bleak. Beyond foldables, you're limited to value-for-money budget Android phones and just one current mid-tier model, the Edge. There's not much variety in conventional phones, and no option at all if you want a flagship.

These days, Windows calls it "This PC," but Windows 11 doesn't put the icon on your desktop by default. If you want that familiar icon back, you can add it in a few clicks.

You can already ask Spotify’s AI to make you a playlist. But Meta’s new personal agent, Muse, wants to know what you’re doing with it. An example? Tell Muse about an upcoming road trip, and it can make a playlist inspired by your destination — then start playing it when it’s time to leave.

That’s the idea behind Spotify’s connection to Muse. In a blog post Wednesday, the company said: "Your agent can play music on Spotify, save songs to your Library, build playlists, help you find a book or podcast." You just have to link your Spotify account and ask.

Credit: Screenshot/Spotify Newsroom

And the road trip is only one example. Muse can pick up the podcast you left unfinished this morning, put your dinner playlist on a connected kitchen speaker, or find new songs and add them to a playlist. It can also turn your notes and daily briefings into a Personal Podcast saved to your Spotify Library. If you run every morning at 7 a.m., you can even ask it to start your workout playlist right on schedule.

SEE ALSO: 10 ways to use Meta's Muse AI app, from flight credits to outfit ideas

Spotify is just one of several services Muse can work with. The agent also connects with Ticketmaster to help you find live events and Plaid to link your financial accounts. That’s the bigger vision behind Muse: You tell the agent what you’re planning once, and it handles everything across all the services you need—no need for you to jump between apps or platforms.

All AI agents carry some security risks, including Meta Muse AI, so be thoughtful before turning over control of apps, devices, and financial information.

Doesn’t Spotify already have AI for this?

Yes, and quite a bit of it. Prompted Playlist makes a mix from a written request, while Talk to Spotify lets eligible Premium users speak or type to choose what plays inside the Spotify app. Spotify also expanded Taste Profile in the U.S. this week, giving eligible Premium users a way to tell the app more about what they want in their recommendations.

SEE ALSO: Spotify launches AI chatbot for music and listening history

Spotify also already works with ChatGPT, where you can ask for recommendations without opening the music app. Muse goes a step further by coordinating playback with your schedule. If it gets the timing and the music right, you might forget you ever had to make a playlist for the commute. If it gets either wrong, at least you still know where the play button is...for now.
