If you’re a Fubo subscriber, you’ve certainly noticed that NBC and all NBCUniversal-owned channels have gone dark on the platform. For over a week, customers have gone without NBC programming like the Today Show and The Voice, and for the second week in a row, customers will have to find alternate methods of watching this week’s Sunday Night Football game, too. It’s all because Fubo and NBCUniversal are having a contract dispute, so channels like NBC, USA Network, Telemundo, and Bravo have been unavailable on Fubo since Nov. 21, and as of now, there’s no projected date for their return.A…
When it comes to making tasty hard-boiled eggs, the debate over the best method is endless and often frustrating. Some cooks swear by a cold-water start: eggs go in cold water, water comes to a boil, then the timer begins. The drawback? You have to hover, watching for that exact moment the water boils to avoid rubbery, overcooked yolks.The hot-water method has its devotees, too — eggs dropped straight into boiling water for more predictable timing. But this approach falls apart when cooking for a crowd. Adding too many cold eggs at once can cause the water to stop boiling, leaving…
8.0/ 10 SCORE Nano Banana Pro (Gemini 3 Pro Image) Pros First-in-industry legible text in AI images Excels at realistic and creative styles Wide knowledge base helps make realistic images Cons Factual errors like a chatbot Thinking model takes longer to generate AI image generation has improved a lot over the past few years, but Google’s nano banana models take AI creation to an entire new, somewhat scary, level. The two versions, the original (Gemini 2.5 Flash Image) and the new pro (Gemini 3 Pro Image), have only been around for a couple of months, but they’ve quickly redefined what’s possible…
It’s been a few years since the official introduction of the Bluetooth technology Auracast, which allows devices like earbuds, headphones, speakers, and hearing aids to connect to a single source without the need for pairing. Like a radio picks up your local radio stations, all you have to do is connect to the right broadcast. These could be flight announcements from your gate at the airport, the microphone a teacher is using during a presentation, or the TV you’re watching while on the treadmill at the gym.By letting you link directly into one of these broadcasts, Auracast can increase auditory…
Several browsers have identical privacy settings with similar toggles and warning sounds. The promise is similar: block trackers, disable cookies, and reduce what websites can gather. After using Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and even the smaller browsers, I now understand that these small controls reduce the tracking surface area but don’t fundamentally change how the websites track you. Chrome is a clear example. It’s very polished but serves as the foundation for Google’s ad-driven economy and thrives on long-term data retention. However, Brave takes a different architectural path. It blocks ads by default but also redefines what a browser should remember,…
The holidays are all about the treats. I can’t get through a single day in December without something sweet (or two or three). A Christmas cut-out, molasses cookie, mint brownie, homemade truffle—give it to me. I keep a stash of treats for just this reason, making a batch every some-odd days and taking some to friends while setting a cache aside for my sugar cravings. While I love to bake and holiday baking is the best of the best, I don’t always want to spend hours in the kitchen. It’s a busy time of year, and I don’t want to…
Lights dim. Sounds hush. The aerialist spins into the air. Sequins sparkle in the warm light of a followspot, and my weird little brain wonders: “What does marketing look like for a travelling circus where every other week brings a totally new market?”
Start the music. Players walk clockwise in a circle. When the music stops, everyone sits in a chair. Big Tech is setting in motion its plans for the next gen of lead designers, engineers, AI chiefs, and even CEOs.In Cupertino, Apple execs with familiar faces are retiring or reducing responsibilities. Who’s in and who’s out? Well, chief operating officer Jeff Williams retired in November, and the speculation is that CEO Tim Cook could follow in the near term. Lisa Jackson, who has led Apple’s sustainability efforts since 2013, is now set to retire in January too.There’s also the squad of…
Rivian owners, your phone is finally becoming a proper key. The company’s software chief, Wassym Bensaid, has confirmed that the upcoming .46 update will officially turn on Digital Key support for second-generation R1S and R1T vehicles. This isn’t just an app update; it introduces native keys that live right inside your Apple Wallet on your iPhone and Apple Watch. The best part? It uses both Ultra Wideband (UWB) for precise, hands-free unlocking and NFC. That NFC bit is huge because it supports Apple’s Power Reserve feature – meaning you can still tap your phone to unlock your truck for up…
Meta is developing new mixed reality glasses under the codename Phoenix, according to Business Insider — but their release date has been pushed back from the second half of 2026 to the first half of 2027. The Facebook parent company already sells VR headsets and Ray-Ban smart glasses, but these glasses sound a bit different; their format factor would reportedly be similar to the Apple Vision Pro, with a puck-like power source. BI says it’s seen memos from Meta executives announcing the delay, apparently after meetings in which CEO Mark Zuckerberg told them to take more time to make the…
