The Tesla Model Y has spent years as the default choice for anyone shopping in the EV crossover space. Strong range, quick acceleration, and a well-established charging network have made it the safe bet, even as prices and incentives have shifted around it.

Camping season kicks off in just a few weeks. If you haven't done so already, it's time to consider what gear needs replacing before heading out this year. If you've been thinking about an upgrade this year to a portable power station but haven't decided on the optimal model, check out this deal at Amazon.

As of May 5, the Anker Solix F2000 portable power station is on sale at Amazon for $849.99, marked down from the normal price of $1,999. That's a huge 57% discount that takes $1,150 off.

The Solix F2000 comes with a sweet 2,048Wh of battery capacity. Invite the station along on the next camping trip and you'll be able to use the air fryer to cook dinner, recharge phones, keep the portable projector showing nightly films, and plenty more.

In total, the Solix F2000 has 12 ports including four standard AC outlets, three UBS-C, and an RV port, to highlight a handful. If your campsite has access to direct sunlight, consider recharging the F2000 with solar panels. It can connect with up to 1,000W of solar input for recharging. If you're going with standard wall AC recharging, expect to get back to 80% in under 90 minutes.

Since the Solix F2000 has a hefty 2,048Wh capacity, it's not exactly a lightweight model. It clocks in at 67.2 pounds so Anker added all-terrain wheels and a telescoping handle to the station. Instead of having a power lifting session at the campground, you can roll it around with ease. Of course, you can also use it at home during power outages to keep the refrigerator cooling.

The Anker Solix app gives you access to vital stats like remaining power, the level of power output when in use, and remaining time when recharging.

While it's well over half off at Amazon, upgrade your summer camping experience with the Anker Solix F2000. You'll be able to enjoy on-grid convenience while being off-grid in nature.

And with its level 5 wind resistance, you don't have to keep stopping to deal with choppy weather, since it can handle flying in breezes up to 23 miles per hour.

It's great for shooting 4K footage as well, with True Vertical Shooting offering the option to capture vertical videos with ease. And thanks to its 3-Axis Gimbal, you don't have to worry about flying the straightest you possibly can -- the DJI Mini 3 will take care of that issue for you so you can focus on taking great video.

While these days Samsung is all about 200MP camera sensors, folding screens, and AI-integrated everything, I find myself looking at my S21 Ultra not as an aging relic, but as the last time a phone felt truly complete.

The latest trailer for Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey has everything: Matt Damon trying to get home (again). The cyclops Polyphemus. Robert Pattinson beefing with Tom Holland. It's truly an embarrassment of riches — and that's before we get into the whirlpool Charybdis or the flashes of the Trojan War.

Adapted from Homer's epic, The Odyssey follows Odysseus's (Damon) decades-long quest to return home to Ithaca following the fall of Troy. He may be the wiliest of strategists, but are those wiles enough to face down the wrath of the gods?

While Odysseus weathers encounters with monsters like Polyphemus and Scylla and Charybdis, his wife Penelope (Anne Hathaway) and son Telemachus (Tom Holland) await his return to Ithaca. They've been overrun with potential suitors for Penelope, including the slimy Antinous (Pattinson). And when I say slimy, I mean rotten lettuce levels of slimy. Seriously, the trailer is worth the watch for Pattinson's nasty threats alone.

Damon, Hathaway, Holland, and Pattinson are only the tip of the iceberg of The Odyssey's extensive, star-studded cast. Zendaya stars the as the goddess Athena, Charlize Theron plays nymph Calypso, and Jon Bernthal and Benny Safdie play kingly brothers Menelaus and Agamemnon.

The film also stars Lupita Nyong’o, John Leguizamo, Himesh Patel, Mia Goth, Will Yun Lee, Jimmy Gonzalez, Elliot Page, and more.

To catch these stars (and get some serious chills from The Odyssey's IMAX-shot visuals), check out the full trailer above.

The Odyssey hits theaters July 17.

One of my favorite things to do on the weekends is binge a good miniseries. I'm passionate about miniseries, whether they're based on real-life individuals, fictionalized interpretations of true events, book adaptations, or stories that portray both past and contemporary life.

Crypto exchange Coinbase is laying off 14 percent of its workforce.

The decision has been made public by CEO Brian Armstrong. In a post on X, he explained that the layoffs are mainly due to two concerns: Bear market, and AI.

"Coinbase is well-capitalized, has diversified revenue streams, and is well-positioned to weather any storm," he wrote. "However, our business is still volatile from quarter to quarter [...] we’re currently in a down market and need to adjust our cost structure."

Cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin and Ethereum, are currently recovering after a sharp downturn that started late last year. The price of Bitcoin is currently at about $81,400, down from its highs of about $127,000 in August 2025.

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

Armstrong also explained that AI is changing how the company works. "Over the past year, I’ve watched engineers use AI to ship in days what used to take a team weeks (...) all of this has led us to an inflection point, not just for Coinbase, but for every company. The biggest risk now is not taking action," he wrote.

Affected workers will get a "comprehensive package" which includes a minimum of 16 weeks base pay for U.S. workers (plus 2 weeks per year worked), their next equity vest, and 6 months of COBRA, wrote Armstrong.

Coinbase is scheduled to release its Q1 2026 earnings report on May 7. The company reported a big revenue decline last quarter, and analysts, for the most part, expect another weak quarter.

The "We were on a break!" argument between Ross (David Schwimmer) and Rachel (Jennifer Aniston) has to be one of the most famous moments in Friends — but, now, over two decades on, Lisa Kudrow sees it in a different light.

"He was a bad boyfriend," she tells Jimmy Fallon in the Tonight Show clip above. "She shouldn't have gotten back with him because he was horrible. To me it's like, I don't care if he slept with three other women or no other women. You had a crisis at work so you weren't available for a few nights and he flipped out, and you're like, 'Wow'."

Take that, Ross.

When smartwatches first hit the scene over a decade ago, they were expensive, often costing a few hundred dollars. While many still do, a range of third-party options now offer similar functionality—especially for fitness and health tracking.

A24 is bringing Anthony Bourdain back to theaters with the coming-of-age drama, Tony.

It's hard to believe it's been nearly eight years since the death of Anthony Bourdain. The outspoken American chef made a massive imprint on the world, not only through his love of food but also his work as an author and documentarian. He shared cuisine, curiosity, and culture from all over the world through his rich and riveting docu-series like No Reservations and Parts Unknown.

Beyond that, his life and writing inspired the 2006 TV series Kitchen Confidential, starring Bradley Cooper; the 2015 drama Bone in the Throat; and the 2021 biographical documentary Roadrunner, which sparked controversy for its use of AI. Now, Tony will explore the early days of Bourdain's career, featuring The Holdovers' Dominic Sessa playing the man himself.

SEE ALSO: Anthony Bourdain's first time at Waffle House is a spiritual, unpretentious must-watch

Directed by Matt Johnson (Nirvanna: The Band - The Show - The Movie), Tony begins with a 19-year-old Bourdain, spinning out after his ambition to become a writer hits a speed bump. But a job in a kitchen — working under a beguiling Antonio Banderas — will change everything.

Emilia Jones, Dagmara Dominczyk, Rich Sommers, Stavros Halkias, and Leo Woodall co-star in Tony, which will open in theaters this August. But are audiences ready to see someone else play Bourdain this soon after his death?

We'll see.

JSON is a hugely popular format, used for configuration, API responses, game save data, and much more. But it has its critics, and JSON is not the only option.

Just a few months ago, I deemed SATA SSDs all but obsolete. HDDs had their uses, but mostly outside of a PC instead of inside it.

In today’s world, you can never be too cautious when driving and staying aware of your surroundings. While keeping your eyes on the road, you also need to monitor other vehicles in case they suddenly merge or stop.

The landscape of AI is changing faster than anything in tech ever has. As such, the “best” AI tool is constantly changing from one company to another, and back again at dizzying speeds. I’ve stopped caring, and that’s the best thing that I’ve ever done in the world of AI.

ESP32 boards are great for a whole range of projects because they often come with onboard Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. This means you can use them for projects that require an internet connection, but there are plenty of ESP32 projects that will work even when the internet is down.

I recently went to see the third Avatar film, and, of course, I saw it in 3D, since Jim Cameron’s blue space cats are the pinnacle of 3D filmmaking.

I was invited to experience the Lifestyle Collection ahead of its release, and I was thoroughly impressed by what I heard and saw. Music on the Lifestyle Ultra Speaker sounded booming and full without muddying vocals, and a clip from Dune literally shook the floors with audio playing from the Lifestyle Ultra Soundbar. The soundbar, speaker, and subwoofer, when paired, created room-filling sound sure to wow anyone who takes their Letterboxd account very seriously. And on top of that, the Lifestyle Collection looks sleek and doesn't scream "tech product."

So, let's dive into each of these new Bose audio devices.

The Lifestyle Ultra Speaker is decently compact while still packing huge sound. It features three drivers — two front-facing and one up-firing — that allow the audio to truly fill a space, so you get powerful, clear sound no matter where you are in the room. It also features CleanBass technology, supported by a proprietary QuietPort acoustic opening, that delivers bass that doesn't sound echoey or blown-out.

Two Lifestyle Ultra speakers can be paired for a surround-sound stereo setup. And you can play music to as many Lifestyle speakers as you have directly from your preferred music app — no need to connect via Bluetooth. The Lifestyle Ultra Speaker is compatible with Google Cast, Apple AirPlay, and Spotify Connect, and can be grouped with other compatible smart speakers on your network. Additionally, it features a 3.5mm aux port, which is awesome for connecting a turntable. It's also the first to market speaker outside of Amazon's own devices to offer full Alexa+ capabilities.

• Price: $299

• Available speaker configurations: 1.0, 2.0, 7.0.4, 7.1.4

This marks the first major soundbar redesign from Bose in over a decade. The Lifestyle Ultra Soundbar features a new acoustic architecture with six full-range drivers (four front-facing and two up-firing), a center tweeter, and two Bose proprietary PhaseGuide drivers. It can play Dolby Atmos content and has SpeechClarity technology that ensures dialogue stands out at any volume, with three adjustable dialogue levels. CustomTune uses your phone's microphone to analyze the acoustics of your room to optimize audio output performance. Like the speaker, the soundbar features CleanBass technology.

While showing off the Lifestyle Ultra Soundbar, a Bose rep toggled on and off the SpeechClarity setting, and I was instantly sold. I sometimes struggle to hear dialogue, but I hate using subtitles, and this technology feels like it was made for me specifically. It pushed the dialogue of a noisy scene without distorting any of the background sound.

The Lifestyle Ultra Soundbar also looks incredibly sleek and sports a tactile dial that allows users to control volume levels without picking up their TV remote or phone.

To illustrate just how truly bizarre a place the president's Truth Social feed is, Jimmy Kimmel spent a couple of minutes breaking down what Trump posted between 11pm and midnight last Friday.

"At 11:13 he posted a thinly veiled, but definitely racist note about House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, followed two minutes later with a warning to Iran that said 'I have all the cards', holding a bunch of Uno cards — which is a game you win by having no cards," says Kimmel in the clip above. "This is what happens when you don't play with your children."

Summarising the president's posting habits, Kimmel goes on to reference a recent Daily Beast article that claimed Trump could only have gotten a full night's sleep five days in April, based on his feed.

"Last month he posted an average of 18 times a day," says Kimmel. "If you had a relative who was posting 18 times a day, you'd be worried about him, right?"
