I finally got tired of using Gigabit networking with my NAS, so I upgraded to 2.5GbE. The upgrade was actually cheaper than I expected, and the results were better than I expected. Moving to 2.5GbE completely changed how my NAS works in my homelab, and I think it will for you, too.

Updated on April 27 at 4:15 p.m. ET — After rolling back a series of recent updates, Microsoft says that the Outlook issue has been resolved for most users. However, according to the latest update, iOS users may still be unable to access Outlook.

"System telemetry indicates that the service is recovering following the configuration roll back. Impacted iOS users on iPhones will need to follow additional steps to resolve the issue. For the list of steps and more information, please visit https://status.cloud.microsoft."

Strangely, the linked website does not provide additional information, at least not for all visitors. However, Outlook users on iPhone should try the following steps, courtesy of our colleagues at CNET:

• Open Settings on your iPhone

• Go to Mail

• Go to Accounts

• Select your Outlook account

• Enter your Outlook password in the Password field.

• Tap Done

• Re-open the Mail app

User error reports remain elevated on DownDetector, though they are down from their peak earlier this afternoon. (Disclosure: DownDetector and Mashable are both owned by the same parent company, ZiffDavis.)

Updated on April 27 at 3:04 p.m. ET — The bad day at Microsoft continues to get worse as the ongoing Microsoft Outlook outage continues to lock many users out of their accounts.

Earlier this afternoon, Microsoft announced it was rolling back a previous update that may have caused the bug. However, Microsoft later said that the "roll back that was completed does not appear to have provided the intended impact relief," as reported by our colleagues at CNET.

Meanwhile, the Microsoft 365 status account on X posted a series of updates on an apparently unrelated Microsoft Copilot outage.

Updated on April 27 at 1:40 p.m. ET — On its X status page, Microsoft said that it's testing a potential fix for the ongoing Outlook outage. As of this writing, Outlook users are still complaining of login errors.

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

Workers trying to log in to Microsoft Outlook experienced unexpected problems Monday morning, with some users receiving error messages and unexpected signouts.

On its official Microsoft service status page, the company confirmed that some Microsoft 365 Business and Enterprise customers were experiencing a service interruption and directed them to X for more information.

The Microsoft 365 Status page on X stated that some customers were unable to log in to the email software.

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

"We've discovered some users may experience intermittent sign‑in failures, including 'too many requests' errors, or unexpected sign‑outs. We're analyzing service telemetry further to identify any potential next steps and mitigation actions."

Around 9:35 a.m. ET, the Microsoft 365 Status X account, posted a further update stating that the issues were ongoing.

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

The platform DownDetector also reported a spike in user error reports beginning around 5 a.m. ET Monday morning, with a majority of users identifying login issues as the problem. Microsoft Outlook error reports continued to climb on Monday morning as U.S. workers began their workweek.

Meanwhile, Microsoft users on X complained that they were still unable to access Outlook and criticized Microsoft for the lack of information regarding the issue. The Microsoft service status page directs users to X for more information, while the Microsoft 365 support profile on X directs users back to the website status page.

Microsoft Outlook also experienced an outage in January.

This is a developing story...

UPDATE: Apr. 27, 2026, 11:21 a.m. EDT This article was updated with more information about the Microsoft Outlook outage.

Omegle is in the ground, and Thundr is dancing on its grave. Since Omegle's demise in late 2023, the internet has been introduced to a number of Omegle alternatives, from the tame to the explicit. Thundr is a random video and text chat service that's emulating Omegle the most in 2026. Think of it as Omegle with actual guardrails, offering far more ways to get your exact match through tags, country selection, and AI moderation. Thundr prides itself on being one of the safer random cam connection sites, claiming to instantly block nudity, spam, and hate speech.

SEE ALSO: What happened to Omegle? The rise and fall of the internet's favorite stranger danger

But what is Thundr, and is it really Omegle's best replacement? And is the site as safe as it claims to be?

How does Thundr work?

Like Omegle, Uhmegle, Flingster, DirtyRoulette, and the like, Thundr matches users to random strangers across the globe through video or text chat. Like most alternatives, Thundr has a customizable matching process designed to help users find better matches, faster. Add up to 33 tags, select your preferred countries, and Thundr will do its best to connect you accordingly. Note: Thundr is one of the only cam sites that allow users to choose multiple countries without payment.

While this doesn't affect matching, Thundr also offers a number of color themes for a better visual experience, including Dark, Light, Pink, Brat (neon green, likely inspired by Charli XCX's hit 2024 album), and more.

Thundr requires every user to create an account before connecting with strangers, with options to sign up via Google or Apple. This is a safety measure, which is a breath of fresh air in this space since most similar sites don't bother — but it's very easy to create an anonymous account even without an email, so it's difficult to say how safe this requirement is.

On the home page, Thundr claims to be different from nearly every other cam site out there: "Thundr uses a match-making algorithm that is designed to give you an amazing experience from the first match, and it only gets better with time." In our experience, this is half true. You can add tags and select countries, but the country filter works noticeably better than the tag filter. You'll find someone with a similar tag maybe every 20ish people.

Where it gets interesting is how the algorithm actually learns. It seemingly sorts users based on nudity and sexually explicit conversation more than anything else. Match with hundreds of faces, take your dick out once, and suddenly, everyone Thundr pairs you with is there for the same thing. While that works great for NSFW users, the algorithm will occasionally misfire and place users who did nothing wrong into NSFW matches, pigeonholing people who are otherwise there for connection. Outside of the SFW versus NSFW divide, we haven't seen much evidence that the algorithm is doing anything more sophisticated than that.

Is Thundr free?

Yes, Thundr is free to use, including all the aforementioned filter options. The only form of payment Thundr offers is something called Boosts. A Boost is a one-time purchase that puts you at the front of Thundr's match queue from 10 to 60 minutes, making it more likely you'll be paired with higher-quality users. Thundr doesn't say much about Boosts on the site itself, but when they launched, the creator of Thundr took to Reddit to explain: "All that happens is that when a user is boosted, they are temporarily at the top of the match queue. This means they're more likely to be matched to what the platform thinks is the highest quality users."

When it comes to pricing, here's what you're looking at as of April 2026, according to a Thundr pop-up:

• Small Boost: $3.99 for 10 minutes

• Normal Boost: $7.99 for 30 minutes

• Super Boost: $16.99 for 60 minutes

But, do Boosts on Thundr work? We're unsure. We haven't tested this ourselves, but users on Reddit claim the answer is a big, fat "no".

Is Thundr available on mobile?

Thundr is browser-only and does not currently have a dedicated app, but you can use it on your phone through your mobile browser. It's worth noting that the mobile version works slightly differently from the desktop one. On desktop, the experience mirrors classic Omegle, with a skip button in the corner of your screen near your camera feed to move on to the next person. On mobile, that button still exists, but users can also swipe up to skip. 

Is Thundr NSFW?

Yes, Thundr is NSFW. Although the site prides itself on its AI moderation, nudity and explicit content slip through more often than you'd expect. You must be 18+ to use Thundr.

Is Thundr safe?

A hard question to answer. Thundr claims to have end-to-end encryption (meaning Thundr and other third parties cannot see messages), zero data-sharing, and AI moderation, and seemingly does its best to keep explicitly-minded users in their own corner of the site. But this doesn't always work. You have to actively do something Thundr deems sexual to end up in the NSFW zone, meaning someone can expose an unsuspecting user to explicit content just to trigger the algorithm.

Here's something else we take issue with. In Thundr's FAQ section, the question "How does Thundr's free video chat let me chat with strangers safely?" is answered like this:

"Every live video or text session is end-to-end encrypted and protected by real-time AI that instantly blocks nudity, hate speech, and spam. You can report, skip, or mute any stranger with one tap, so you enjoy free video chat without compromising safety."

This is false. Just because Thundr separates explicit users into their own corner doesn't mean nudity is blocked. It just means that it's pushed elsewhere. When you get to this side of Thundr, you will know by the amount of penises that appear on screen over and over and over again, which wouldn't happen as much prior. That's not blocking nudity, that's just doing something else with it.

Adding a mandated sign-in requirement is an excellent step, but anyone can have an email without confirming their age (or make an anonymous account without an email and do the same). Children under 18 can access Thundr just as easily as adults, and given what can slip through the moderation, that's a serious problem.

Final thoughts on Thundr

Thundr is doing something many other sites are not doing: requiring users to sign in. Although Thundr does not say it explicitly, this holds people accountable in a way. This will push away a number of bad actors who intend on using Thundr for the wrong reasons, ultimately making Thundr safer than a lot of Omegle alternatives. Like always, when using Thundr or any other cam site that connects users to strangers from around the globe, use caution. The internet has always been a weird place. Thundr is no exception.

Though bloody, Euphoria's "version of the Red Wedding" actually had a very pink colour palette.

Season 3, episode 3 of the HBO series saw combustible lovers Cassie (Sydney Sweeney) and Nate (Jacob Elordi) getting married in a ceremony that was just as lavish and over-the-top as it was harrowing.

SEE ALSO: 'Euphoria' just did its version of the Red Wedding

The Euphoria wedding was filmed on the south lawn of The Langham, Huntingdon in Pasadena, as well as on a Warner Bros set for the interior reception scenes. From the ceremony to the afterparty, Cassie and Nate's wedding is a cornucopia of pink drapery, Cartier jewels, and $50,000 flower arrangements, including rose aisle arches and a custom C&N logo.

In a behind-the-scenes video from HBO, production designer François Audouy said he talked to Euphoria creator Sam Levinson early in pre-production with his vision: "I told him that I was inspired by a shrimp cocktail."

"I literally sampled the pinks from a shrimp and then that became the color palette for the wedding," Audouy added.

I mean... Credit: HBO / YouTube That feeling of a $50,000 flower budget. Credit: Eddy Chen / HBO Shrimpy pinks abound. Credit: Eddy Chen / HBO

If you watch the episode again, you can see the production team, including set decorator Anthony Carlino, not only took cues from the favoured dish of 1960s dinner parties, but included a ton of prawns within an ice sculpture, emblazoned with Nate and Cassie's initials. The team also wrote a menu, which includes blinis, steak tartare, and smoked salmon and crème fraîche — all the fancypants canapés you'd expect. And you'll notice Cassie's bridesmaids dresses, designed by Euphoria costume designer Natasha Newman-Thomas, are the same shrimpy pink.

🦐 loooool 🦐 Credit: HBO / YouTube

"It's a bit over-the-top, all these incredibly detailed tables, and the flower arrangements, and the food — it's supposed to be very Californian," Audouy said of the Spanish Revival-style interior set the Euphoria team built at Warner Bros. for the reception scenes. The level of detail here is just staggering, from the wedding table to the table setting (with Fujifilm Instaxes) and that horrendous ice sculpture of Cassie and Nate.

If the wedding site looks familiar, The Langham is regularly used for film and TV shoots; the hotel's website lists The Parent Trap, Hacks, Westworld, The Brothers Sun, Modern Family, and American Crime Story: The Assassination of Gianni Versace. It's also where Ashley and JP’s wedding was filmed for The Bachelorette in 2012, which feels right for Cassie and Nate.

Wedding planning website The Knot prices The Langham at $34,500 average spend for a wedding, however, that seems hilariously under Cassie and Nate's budget. Mashable has reached out to The Langham for a quote of our own.

With those $50,000 florals, the multi-venue hire, Cassie’s Natasha Newman-Thomas/Jackson Wiederhoeft dress and Cartier jewellery, Nate’s Bottega Veneta tuxedo, the full band, DJ and dance floor, wedding planner, highly opulent food and drink budget, and those lavish table settings, we’re thinking six figures at a minimum. But remember, Nate’s in serious debt and though Cassie’s making that OnlyFans money, they’re not millionaires. Yes, Nate’s financial situation has toe-curling consequences.

New episodes of Euphoria Season 3 premiere Sundays at 9 p.m. ET on HBO and HBO Max.

Electric vehicles often face the range wall, a common concern for car buyers when trying to decide whether to go full-electric or stick with a gasoline vehicle. If a person is taking frequent cross-country road trips, this range wall becomes a major factor in their buying decision.

Network issues can be frustratingly difficult to troubleshoot, especially if they're intermittent. Sometimes it is a hardware problem, sometimes it is the layout of your home, and yet other times, it comes down to a software issue.

"Our main story tonight concerns AI: It saves significant time writing emails, and all it costs us is everything else on Earth."

That's how John Oliver launches his latest Last Week Tonight segment on AI chatbots, taking half an hour to break down the darker side of artificial intelligence apps — from chatbots becoming sexually explicit with young users to the dangerous lack of safeguards in place when people use them to talk about suicide.

Oliver ends by advising parents to speak with their children about what chatbots they're using, and "treat these apps with extreme caution" if you're pre-disposed to mental health issues.

"In general, it is good to remember that however much an app may sound like a friend, what it is is a machine. And behind that machine is a corporation trying to extract a monthly fee from you. And that kind of sums up for me what is so dystopian about all this, because while that guy you saw earlier said that selling AI friends is low risk because they're just entertainment, that's not actually how friends work. Friends can be the most important figures in your life," says Oliver. "True friends know when to listen, when to push back, and when to worry about you."

If you're feeling suicidal or experiencing a mental health crisis, please talk to somebody. You can call or text the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline at 988, or chat at 988lifeline.org.

TL;DR: Amazon has the AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D 16-Core Processor on sale for $573.99, knocking $125.01 off its $699 list price. That's an 18% discount on a 16-core, 32-thread Zen 5 CPU with second-gen AMD 3D V-Cache, up to 5.7GHz max boost, and AM5 support.

Upgrading your gaming PC is a simple but expensive idea, but Amazon’s new drop on a premium AMD CPU will certainly help take the edge off. 

As of April 27, the AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D 16-Core Processor is on sale for $573.99 at Amazon, down from its $699 list price. Not only does this save you $125.01, but this is also Amazon’s lowest ever price for this particular CPU, as confirmed using price tracker camelcamelcamel.

Taking you far beyond casual gaming, the Ryzen 9 9950X3D is built for more than just a few rounds of Fortnite. It’s been crafted for gamers who love doing a lot at once: playing, streaming, editing, rendering, or switching between heavy workloads — all without having your daily tasks suddenly come to a grinding halt. 

Also packing 32 threads, a 4.3GHz base clock, and up to 5.7GHz max boost, the 9950X3D also uses AMD’s Zen 5 architecture and second-generation 3D V-Cache technology. As a result, you’ll give games and demanding apps more cache to work with. In layman’s terms, it’s built to keep things fast when your PC is being pushed properly, even when you’re playing demanding new gaming titles like Crimson Desert or Pragmata.

There’s also support for the AM5 platform, DDR5 memory, PCIe 5.0, AMD EXPO memory overclocking, and Precision Boost Overdrive. Overall, that provides a pretty strong upgrade path if you’re building a system that you don’t want to feel outdated in a year.

The one thing to remember is that there’s no cooler included, and AMD recommends a liquid cooler for the best performance. Still, if you’re buying a CPU at this level, that probably isn’t the part of the build where you were planning to cut corners.

To complement your setup with some amazing new visuals, you can also find the 27-inch LG UltraGear OLED monitor for only $499.99 at 44% off. If you’re after something even bigger, the 52-inch LG UltraGear evo (the world's largest 5K2K gaming monitor) is $300 off.

SNL UK's first ever sketch went so hard on prime minister Keir Starmer that Donald Trump shared it, and it doesn't look like the roasting is going to stop anytime soon.

The show's latest cold open above is a parody of the game show Who Wants to be a Millionaire?, which sees a nervous Starmer (played by George Fouracres) struggling to answer the question: "Is it ever a good idea to give Peter Mandelson a job?" (The real Starmer has come under increasing scrutiny for giving the U.S. ambassador role to Mandelson, who is currently under criminal investigation over his ties to Jeffrey Epstein).

In the sketch, despite multiple lifelines narrowing down Starmer's options to "Not in a million years", he still decides to pick "Yes".

Euphoria Season 3's jaw-dropper of a third episode saw Cassie (Sydney Sweeney) and Nate (Jacob Elordi) getting hitched — and it was just as over-the-top, lavish, and blood-soaked as you'd expect.

HBO released a behind-the-scenes video for "Euphoria's version of the Red Wedding" for fans wanting to know more about every last detail, from those off-the-runway looks to the fake body parts fit for choppin'.

Filmed on the south lawn of the Huntingdon Langham Hotel in Pasadena (as well as on a Warner Bros set), the wedding sequence is drenched in pinks, a colour palette production designer François Audouy described as "inspired by a shrimp cocktail." The production team details everything from the ice sculpture to Cassie and Nate’s first dance, giving you a sense of the sheer scale of the episode.

Euphoria costume designer Natasha Newman-Thomas unpacks the design for Cassie’s dress, which she co-designed with New York designer Jackson Wiederhoeft — it was paired with eight-inch Jimmy Choo heels and half a million dollars’ worth of Cartier jewellery. You'll also get a look at Nate's Bottega Veneta tuxedo, Maddy’s (Alexa Demie's) “gravity-defying” gown with the dangling rosary, Lexi (Maude Apatow) in Nana Jacqueline, and Jules (Hunter Schafer) in an Acne spring 2023 runway sample.

It was nothing short of a TV wedding to remember.
