Having a hard time deciding which robot vacuum to buy? With a severely oversaturated market and tons of different features to choose from, we totally understand the dilemma. If you want something that can vacuum and mop your floors without breaking the bank, this deal on the Ecovacs Deebot T50 Omni might be the factor that finally helps you decide.

As of Jan. 8, the Ecovacs Deebot T50 Omni robot vacuum and mop is down to only $449 at Amazon — $200 off its list price. That's over 30% in savings and its lowest price on record. Yes, even cheaper than it was during Cyber Week.

The thing with mopping robot vacuums is that not all of them can wash and dry their own mop pads. This is a total deal breaker in our eyes. Not only does that mean you have to do extra work yourself, but it can also translate to a smelly, mildewy mess. Fortunately, the T50 Omni does it all for you with its 10-in-1 hands-free Omni station. The Omni station essentially handles all the maintenance, thanks to 167°F hot water mop washing, 113°F hot air drying, auto dustbin emptying, water refilling, dirt detection, and cleaning solution auto-dispensing.

Other dealbreakers (in our eyes) are robot vacuums with less than 10,000 Pa suction power and no small obstacle avoidance and smart mapping on board. The T50 Omni checks all the right boxes, with 15,000 Pa suction power, AIVI 3D 3.0 smart navigation, and smart control with YIKO-GPT AI assistant.

A robot vacuum should make your life easier, not harder. The Deebot T50 Omni from Ecovacs is a solid pick for taking vacuuming and mopping off your hands. Plus, at over 30% off, it's easy on your wallet, too.

Another year has arrived and that means there's no longer any need to stick to some seasonal-mandated viewing list. You will likely have your own methods for achieving this, be it in the form of seeing what these early months of 2026 has to offer theatrically or catching up on what you missed out on in 2025. For me, I like to use these cold winter months to indulge in some side-splittingly funny stand-up comedy.

Do you think an empty desktop is a wasted desktop? Do you love decorating your workspace with widgets to make your desktop more useful? Well, here’s how I used KDE Plasma widgets to turn my Linux desktop into a functional project management dashboard—no extra apps required.

Picture this: A man wrapped in wires strolls into your diner, claims he's from an apocalyptic future, and asks for your help in saving the world. What do you do?

That's the bizarro situation that kicks off Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die, an upcoming sci-fi adventure from director Gore Verbinski (Pirates of the Caribbean, Rango) and writer Matthew Robinson (The Invention of Lying).

SEE ALSO: 'Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die' trailer makes an apocalyptic villain of AI

Sam Rockwell stars as Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die's man from the future, who comes bearing terrible news of the end of the world. The film's latest trailer hints at the AI nature of this apocalypse, from sinister VR headsets to children staring mindlessly at their phone screens.

What can stop the fast-approaching end times? According to Rockwell's character, the answer lies in a Los Angeles diner, which holds the "perfect configuration" of people who can save humanity. Played by the likes of Haley Lu Richardson, Michael Peña, Zazie Beetz, Asim Chaudhry, and Juno Temple, can this crew of unlikely heroes truly bring the world back from the brink of destruction?

Jury's still out on that question, but there's no denying that Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die looks suitably bonkers. Shootouts with bad guys in pig masks, writhing masses of wires, a terrifying baby doll robot... These are just some of the wacky sights that await in the film's newest trailer. Check out the full chaos for yourself above.

Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die hits theaters Feb. 13.

Reinstalling Windows is sometimes unavoidable. I’ve done it plenty of times when a system was truly beyond saving. But it is also one of the most disruptive fixes you can choose. You lose time reinstalling apps, reconfiguring settings, and chasing down little tweaks you forgot you ever made. In many cases, Windows is not actually broken beyond repair. It is just confused, partially corrupted, or stuck after a failed update.

Ubuntu has long been the face of Linux. For many of us, it was the first distro that we ever tried. But sometimes you outgrow your first love. That's what happened to me and Ubuntu. Here are five key reasons I decided to move on.

Many people say they would switch to Linux if it weren't for the lack of some Windows-exclusive apps. In my case, it’s the opposite. There are quite a few Linux-only apps that I love, and more are popping up now than at any time in recent memory. Whenever I use anything other than Linux, these are the apps that I miss.

USB-C is finally making its way into everything, and I'm all for it. It's no longer just a cable for phones and laptops. There are all sorts of wild things you can power with a USB-C cable, and I recently bought three items that I never knew I needed.

Are you in the market for an ice maker? Even if not, you should be. It’s all too easy to see how quickly ice can disappear from the ice trays during a meal or get-together, and it’s not exactly easy to replace it.

Throughout the 2010s, The Hunger Games dominated pop culture, as Suzanne Collins' dystopian tale of teens forced to fight to the death for entertainment made the leap to the big screen and became one of the most successful movie adaptations of a book.

Sporty sedans are perfect for gearheads who still need a bit of practicality. They pack powerful engines, handle corners with confidence, and still have room for four people plus a decent trunk.

Maybe you've seen a bunch of BookTok recommendations fly by without saving them, madly scribbled down titles talked about in your go-to podcasts, or have tried to remember the book your friend recommended over that third glass of Bourgogne aligoté? Sure, you could write them down in a notebook, but there's also a bunch of apps that let you track books you'd like to read, are currently reading, or want to read in the future.

And, maybe you'll find like-minded book pals on there too.

Here's a bunch of apps I regularly use that track your TBR (to be read) pile, the books you DNFed (did not finish), and offer suggestions for your next read. Some are prettier than others, and most will allow you to import your Goodreads data.

Fable Credit: Fable / Mashable

Probably the most social-friendly and elegantly-designed of the book-tracking apps, Fable is for readers who want to connect with other like-minded book lovers. Or those who enjoy very lovely UX. Launched in 2023 by Padmasree Warrior, the app lets you join book clubs, post your reviews to the main feed, generate cute round-ups of your monthly and annual titles with Pedro Pascal stickers, and keep track of what you're currently reading, want to read, finished, and DNF. The book clubs are extremely popular and fit every niche, from clubs based around Taylor Swift lyrics to those for people who've never read the classics (and you might even get a free ebook for these ones).

There's a premium subscription called Fable Plus, which costs $5.99 a month or $49.99 for the year, gives you weekly and monthly goal-setting and progress-tracking tools, and provides deeper reading data insights if you're a Wrapped fiend. The only tiny downside of Fable? The app hasn't yet introduced the ability to switch edition of the book you're reading, like other apps such as Goodreads, Storygraph, and Margins.

Pagebound Credit: Pagebound / Mashable

Founded by Lucy Zhao and Jennifer Dobak and launched in 2025, Pagebound is a pro-indie, anti-AI platform that describes itself as "if Goodreads and Reddit had a baby" — and they’re not wrong. Probably the prettiest of the book tracking apps, Pagebound puts a modern spin on Y2K internet aesthetic. Some neat features here alongside the regular book app requisites are the ability to plan your TBR pile by month, Reddit-style upvoting on posts, half-stars and sub ratings for reviews, and they’re passionate about indie publishers, so you might find more of your favourite independent titles on here.

Like Fable, Pagebound has discussion groups so if you’re one for an online book club, this is a good option. Plus there's a $10 per month premium version called Pagebound Royalty, which gives you a little crown on your avatar, priority customer support, and more perks to be added.

Storygraph Credit: Storygraph / Mashable

If you're a fiend for data, check out Storygraph. Founded by in 2019 by Nadia Odunayo, the app started as a book-tracker and has evolved into an online community. Operating the same way as a Goodreads or a Fable with TBR, DNF lists etc., the app visualises your reading habits into visually satisfying graphs — your go-to genres and moods, your pace, how many pages you regularly read. The app's Reading Goal will motivate you to read a certain number of books in a year and track your progress. Plus, Storygraph's buddy reads feature lets you add up to eight friends to the same book to read and comment as you go, or you can make a public readalong to engage a broader range of users.

Storygraph's premium version, Storygraph Plus, is $4.99 per month and gives you the ability to create your own custom pie and bar charts with tags and labels — a win for genre readers — extra stats filters and comparison options, additional year-on-year charts, and priority customer support.

Margins Credit: Margins / Mashable

Launched in 2024 by Paul Warren and Nick Punt, Margins is similar to its peers in a lot of ways (want to read, currently reading, finished reading, stopped reading piles). However, it sets itself apart with very slick design (those fonts!) and its "Search by vibe" feature. The latter allows you to type in exactly what you're looking for and generate a carousel of suggestions — I typed in "summer horror by the sea" and it suggested Daphne Du Maurier's The House on the Strand and Alma Katsu's The Deep, a pretty good outcome. The library also has the option to add series and authors to your lists, and it has the all-important Reading Recap tool with templates to let you create pretty social-friendly lay-ups of your monthly reads.

Libby Credit: Libby / Mashable

Launched in 2017 by OverDrive, Libby is the best way to borrow e-books and audiobooks for free from your local library (shoutout to BorrowBox too). All you need to do is sign up with your library card, as the app has thousands of global library partners. Your loans and holds appear in the app's Shelf tab, but it's also got great reading tracking functionality, through the app's tag system. When you find a title you want to read, you can save it with a tag with whatever name you like, whether you want to categorise your reads by genre, emoji, or go with the traditional TBR, DNF etc. It's a great way to get books for free while you're tracking them.

Bookshelf and Book Buddy Credit: Bookshelf / Mashable

There's a few apps like Bookshelf and Book Buddy that allow you to add every book you personally own to your in-app library — this could take a while if you've got a lot of books, but in a dream feature in both, you can scan the barcodes to add them. After you've logged your library, the best features of these apps are the ability to create and organise shelves, get stats and discover new books according to your taste, see your friends' shelves (to have a peek and what you'd like to request to borrow), and track your loaned out books to your mates who conveniently never return them.

In a great hidden feature, BookBuddy has a random book suggestion tool, in which the app will go through your library and suggest your next read — go to Search, then tap the crossed arrows icon. This is perfect for people who stare blankly at their bookshelf in a state of panic over which title to pick.

Goodreads Credit: Goodreads/ Mashable

I use it, I don't love it. Yes, the design and UX of Amazon-owner Goodreads, one of the internet's legacy book-tracking apps, isn't great. And authors hate it, with many users dropping unnecessarily mean reviews as casually as painting their nails. But one (1) thing Goodreads does do well is the annual Reading Challenge, which lets you track the number of books you've read in a year and motivate you to hit a target number.

Goodreads allows you to export your data to other apps, just in case you ever feel like leaving!

Perhaps you use a different book tracker? Let us know in the comments, I'm keen to hear what you track your reads with.

With Greenland seemingly high on Donald Trump's shopping list, Daily Show host Ronnie Chieng spent some time on Wednesday reacting to the administration's stance on Denmark's territory.

"The point is, we need Greenland," says Chieng. "Why? For their freedom, or their oil, or for national defe— look, I don't remember what excuse we're using."

After saying "this congressman, he'll explain it," Chieng brings up a clip of Rep. Andy Ogles describing the U.S. as the "dominant predator in the Western hemisphere" in justification for why it's important America has a stake.

"Yes, Trump is the dominant predator in the Western hemisphere," says Chieng. "At least now that Jeffrey Epstein is dead."

When it comes to electric SUVs, Volvo has apparently saved the best for last.

Yes, the company already has a compact and a large electric SUV — the Volvo EX30 and EX90, respectively — but the mid-sized EX60 is likely to be the brand's most popular one.

While the Volvo EX60 is scheduled for a full reveal on Jan. 21, the company just revealed some key figures for the upcoming SUV. Perhaps most important of them is the range: The EX60 has a 400 mile range in an all-wheel configuration. The figure isn't an official EPA rating, but Volvo says it used comparable testing to obtain it. Similarly, the EX60 should have a WLTP range of about 810 kilometers, which would make it best in class amongst European electric SUVs.

The EX60 is the first Volvo car built with mega casting, meaning "hundreds" of smaller parts are replaced with a single, high-precision casting. Credit: Volvo

For comparison, Tesla Model Y maxes out at 622 kilometers WLTP range.

When the EX60's battery starts running out of juice, you'll be able to charge it quickly. Volvo says the EX60 will get up to 340 kilometers of range in 10 minutes on a 400kW fast charger.

Finally, if you're worried about the battery's longevity, Volvo will offer an optional 10-year battery warranty.

The company didn't share other specs for the EX60, but it did post several images. One of them shows additional storage compartments in the trunk's bottom, with folded seats visible in the corner. This indicates that the EX60 will be available in a six- or seven-seat configuration, which would make it more appealing for large families.

The EX60's official reveal will be livestreamed on Jan. 21; you can tune in to watch it on Volvo's website.

TL;DR: The Magic: The Gathering Marvel’s Spider-Man Play Booster Box is down to $104.99 at Amazon — the lowest-ever price for this 30-pack booster display.

Magic: The Gathering crossover sets don’t usually hang around at reasonable prices for long, especially when they pull in fans outside the usual MTG crowd. Marvel’s Spider-Man has been one of those releases, with strong demand from both Magic players and comic fans pushing prices well above launch levels for months. That being said, the market for some of MTG’s new sets seems to be calming down.

As of Jan. 8, the Magic: The Gathering Marvel’s Spider-Man Play Booster Box has dropped to $104.99 at Amazon; confirmed when checking price tracker camelcamelcamel, this marks its lowest price to date. That’s a notable 20% drop from its typical price of around $131, and a steep fall from the much higher prices seen closer to release. For a full 30-pack booster display, this is about as affordable as this set has ever been.

This price cut is especially surprising since it further undercuts listings at dedicated trading card sites like TCGplayer, while also putting it more in line with its market value of just over $100. At the lowest, TCGplayer is selling the MTG Spider-Man Player Booster Box for $164.94 when shipping costs are considered — making Amazon’s selection the best choice by a mile.

Each box includes 30 Play Boosters, with 14 cards per pack. You’re guaranteed at least one rare or mythic rare and one Traditional Foil card in every booster, giving you plenty of chances at standout pulls while also providing enough packs to support multiple draft nights. Play Boosters are designed to give you a balance between cracking packs for fun and actually give you enough cards to make a decent deck for playing, which makes a full box especially appealing at this price.

The Spider-Man set isn’t the only MTG bargain going right now; the Magic: The Gathering Tarkir Dragonstorm Booster Box has been on sale at Amazon, as well. Meanwhile, preorders on the MTG Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Play Booster Box are down to the lowest-ever price at Amazon.
