This Thanksgiving, Reunite With Your Long-Lost Family—Old Videogames
November 23, 2017 07:11 - 5 minutesTucked away in my mother's house, somewhere in the room that used to be mine, is a Nintendo GameCube that's not mine. My own GameCube is God-knows-where—languishing on some GameStop warehouse shelf, or in someone's garage, buried beneath an electric drill after an impulsive used-game purchase in the late 2000s. But this other GameCube, the one that's there now? I have no idea how it got into my room. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Mythbuster Adam Savage Has Made a Tool Bag, and It’s Beautiful
November 22, 2017 16:30 - 5 minutesAdam Savage is clearly overjoyed about his new bag. I met up with the gear-obsessed designer, former Mythbusters host, and Tested.com editor-in-chief at his workshop in San Francisco to see his latest creation. He's designed his first carry-all utility bag and launched a new brand, Savage Industries, to market it. With the same childlike glee he exudes on camera, Savage flipped the thing around on the workbench, opening and closing it, zipping and unzipping, as he pointed out all the features...
Flight Delayed? Know Your Rights to Compensation
November 22, 2017 10:12 - 7 minutesIt’s that time of year again. Yes, it’ll feel great to be home, chilling out, stuffing yourself, falling asleep on the sofa. But boy, it’s going to suck getting there. That’s because 24 million people will travel on US airlines over the Thanksgiving period (up 6 percent from last year), according to the TSA. This week, even a short flight will feel like an epic journey, with many perils and demons to vanquish. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Review: Leica CL
November 22, 2017 07:11 - 10 minutesWord of a new Leica camera leaked earlier this year. The only info one could gather from the photo blogs was that this new shooter was a compact camera that accepted L-mount lenses, and that its codename was "Clooney." Match the iconic Leica brand with a name like Clooney, and you could bet good money the thing was going to be handsome. Well, here it is, the Leica CL. And yes, it's very dapper.

Thanksgiving Hack: Cook Your Turkey Sous Vide
November 21, 2017 07:11 - 8 minutesMaybe you like your Thanksgiving turkey dry and bland. I get it. There’s something deeply traditional about leaving the bird in the oven for hours and hours. Maybe you like the symbolism of a big bird taking up oven space, or maybe your overcooked turkey gives you an excuse to overload it with gravy. Maybe you’ve given up on bird altogether (one year, my mom served lobster for Thanksgiving. “No one likes the turkey anyway!”). Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Surface Book 2 Review: Meet Microsoft's Beefy, Fast, Everything Machine
November 20, 2017 07:11 - 9 minutesMicrosoft's Surface devices defy easy description. Even Microsoft itself has never quite known what to call them. It's the one device for everything in your life. It's a tablet that can replace your laptop. It's powerful as a laptop, lighter than air. It's powered by beautiful. In reality, the Surface is all those things—and none of them. The Surface Book 2, on the other hand, is really only one thing: a laptop. A beefy, fast, get-shit-done laptop. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podc...

Reactions to Twitter's New Character Limit Top This Week's Internet News
November 16, 2017 11:56 - 21 minutesThis week in "Your faves are problematic" news, Louis C.K. and Mad Men creator Matthew Weiner, your time has come. But in other news, Eminem has a new song with Beyoncé, which is giving the internet something else to talk about. Is there anything else that had everyone talking last week? Why, we're glad you asked. What Happened: Just how badly does the president hate CNN? Enough to potentially step over the line and interfere with its business dealings? Let's find out.

Review: Zojirushi NL-BAC05 3-Cup Rice Warmer and Cooker
November 16, 2017 09:53 - 6 minutesFor a grain that is a staple in so many different cultures, rice is surprisingly difficult to cook. Most stove burners don’t have a setting that’s low enough to steam it properly without the pot boiling over, or scorching it. A perfectly-cooked pot of rice needs constant vigilance. That's why most people who cook rice with any regularity usually own a dedicated rice cooker. The Zojirushi NL-BAC05 is as perfect a type of this kitchen appliance as any I’ve ever used.

Rian Johnson Is Getting a Star Wars Trilogy—'The Last Jedi' Must Be Amazing
November 15, 2017 07:11 - 6 minutesCongratulations, Rian Johnson—you survived the Star Wars obstacle course! In a world where not every director even gets to finish the movie they start producing, you, exalted amongst your peers, have not only wrapped one—you’ve been given more. Lucasfilm announced yesterday that you're getting your own trilogy (three films!) with which you can do whatever you want. (Like, within reason.) How does that feel? Thrilling, I’ll bet. It means big, big things for you. Learn more about your ad choice...
The Iranian Smugglers Trafficking Fuel Into Pakistan
November 14, 2017 07:11 - 4 minutesTrucks gather near the border to unload their cargo. Pack animals will carry the fuel across. Aslan works at a fuel depot in Pakistan. He is just 12 years old. Smugglers load donkeys and mules with fuel to cross the border. Abdowahed has a bachelor's degree in agriculture but turned to fuel smuggling after drought dried up his orchards in the province of Sistan and Baluchistan. He takes a bath in a spring near the Pakistan border after selling a load of diesel. Learn more about your ad choice...
Steven Soderbergh on Virtual Reality, iPhone Filmmaking, and Harvey Weinstein
November 13, 2017 07:11 - 11 minutesSteven Soderbergh is nothing if not ever-evolving—except, maybe, for tireless. After establishing himself as one of his generation’s great auteurs with movies like Sex, Lies, and Videotape, Out of Sight, and Traffic, he vowed to stop making theatrical films. During the supposed hiatus, he made HBO’s Liberace biopic Behind the Candelabra, and two seasons of prestige drama The Knick for Cinemax. Learn more about your ad choices.

Twenty Years after His Death, Carl Sagan Is Still Right
November 10, 2017 10:23 - 8 minutesTwenty years ago I called Carl Sagan to ask him why people believed crazy stuff. Sagan—astronomer, creator of the “golden record” messages to any aliens who might find the Voyager space probes, creator and host of Cosmos, novelist, arguably one of the best-known scientists of the 20th century—would’ve been 83 years old today. Me, I was a fact-checker on the science desk at Newsweek, which meant I mostly did reporting for other people’s stories. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastc...
Kindle Oasis Review: Way Better, Way Bigger
November 09, 2017 07:11 - 8 minutesEarlier this year, I caught myself complaining to a colleague that I don’t read enough books. I read more than ever, but I’d largely replaced books with magazine features, news stories, and tweets. (Mostly tweets, if I’m being honest.) I read in fits and starts: five minutes in line at Safeway, 20 minutes on the train, 15 minutes when I’m early at the restaurant. This, I whined to my poor colleague, was just not conducive to reading books. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoice...
How Koenigsegg's Agera RS Set a New World Speed Record
November 08, 2017 07:11 - 7 minutesRecords may be made to be broken, but the laws of physics aren't even supposed to bend. Which makes it all the weirder that the Koenigsegg Agera RS just set a new production car speed record, hitting 277.9 mph. That is, to use the engineering term, insane. It pushes the limits of aerodynamics, suspension, engine power, and tire rubber. It seems impossible. Koenigsegg, a tiny Swedish supercar outfit, set the new mark this weekend on a closed section of public road in Nevada. Learn more about y...
The Downfall of Doppler Labs: Inside the Last Days of a Hardware Startup
November 07, 2017 07:11 - 18 minutesOn October 23, Doppler Labs founder Noah Kraft got a Facebook notification. One of those "On This Day" pop-ups, resurfacing a post from exactly two years ago, when Kraft had appeared on CNBC to make the case for his company. "We want to put a computer, speaker, and mic in everyone's ear," Kraft said during the interview. "We have very lofty visions of the future, everything from real-time translation to personal assistants." The memory stung. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastcho...
Review: Timbuk2 Lug Knapsack
November 06, 2017 07:11 - 7 minutesThe name “Timbuk2” has become synonymous with moderately-priced, high-quality bags. Their iconic messengers are emblematic of a place and time, a part of the 2000s Silicon Valley wardrobe that was as ubiquitous as a hoodie and a pair of Chuck Taylors. To not like a Timbuk2 bag is outrageous, like not liking cheap burritos, or sitting in sunny parks. And yet here we are. As much as it pains me to say this, I simply don’t like their Lug Knapsack.

Razer Phone: Specs, Price, Release Date
November 03, 2017 08:11 - 6 minutesIf I told you Razer made a smartphone, you'd probably develop a mental picture pretty quickly. Since the company is mostly known for its gaming mice, keyboards, and laptops, you'd expect this phone to be For Gamers. It'd be crazy powerful, of course, with all the best specs and the highest numbers and probably a bunch of chips you don't need but sound really cool at a LAN party. It'd probably be huge, and super expensive, as gaming gear tends to be. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit pod...
YouTube's Quest to Make TV Work Everywhere
November 01, 2017 08:11 - 14 minutesNeil Cormican has spent his career trying to fix the interface on your TV. Before he was the head of design at YouTube TV, Cormican worked on program guides, interactive systems, and web-based TV. Lots of ideas, always the same roadblock. "Everybody already watches TV," he says. "So everybody has an opinion, and everything you do is always wrong." To borrow a Gladwell-ism, just about everyone has put in their 10,000 hours flopped on the living room couch, aimlessly thumbing through channels. ...
President Trump's Data Dump Tops This Week's Internet News Roundup
October 31, 2017 08:11 - 8 minutesIn a week where sexual harassment allegations against powerful men continued to come to light and the situation continues to be dire in Puerto Rico, people have been turning to old traditions to keep their spirits high: Halloween, Stranger Things , and wondering what in the world is actually going with Taylor Swift right now . Well, it's that or wondering what in the world is happening in Spain , but that's not entirely uplifting. And those tidbits are just the beginning. Learn more about you...
Prezi’s Augmented Reality Presentation Software Wants to Kill Boring PowerPoints
October 30, 2017 08:11 - 9 minutesWhen Peter Arvai founded Prezi in 2009, he didn't set out to topple PowerPoint. He just wanted to see better presentations. With the right tools, he figured, he could help people create visual aids that felt more engaging. Arvai was sick of sitting through slide decks containing walls of text and bullet-pointed lists, listening to the speaker ramble on while the audience squinted at the words on the screen.

Google Pixelbook Review: The Mack Daddy of All Chromebooks
October 27, 2017 08:11 - 11 minutesI believe in Chromebooks. Windows and MacOS come with three decades of cruft, old ideas about how things work that don’t mesh with a new generation that sends more snaps than emails and doesn’t know what that weird rectangle on the Save icon even is. (It’s a floppy disk, kiddies. Look it up.) Now that the primary computer for so many people is a five-inch rectangle of glass in their pocket, it seems obvious that we need to redefine what a computer means. Learn more about your ad choices.

Sonos One Review: Amazon's Alexa Is Here, But It Still Has Some Growing Up to Do
October 26, 2017 08:11 - 7 minutesI like my Echo. In my house, we use it to play radio stations, to get the weather, and to answer questions like "When was the Edo period?" One thing I don't often use the Echo for is music. That's because it sounds terrible. As good as Amazon's Alexa voice service is, the Echo's black tin can croaks out audio just a notch better than the 20-year-old Coby FM radio I keep in the garage. Learn more about your ad choices.

What It's Like to Rappel 1,000 Feet Down Into a Volcano
October 25, 2017 08:11 - 4 minutesMost people's idea of a good night's sleep involves a plush mattress, blackout shades, and maybe some sleeping pills. But Ulla Lohmann catches her best zzz 's hundreds of feet deep inside a rumbling volcano , lava casting a red glow all around. "It's like a night light," she says. The German photographer loves volcanoes so much her husband proposed to her atop one, and then the couple honeymooned on another. She's spent the last decade exploring 10 active volcanoes around the world. Learn mor...

5 Toys to Teach Your Kids the Basics of Engineering: Lego, Kano, Cubetto, Tech Will Save Us, XYZprinting
October 23, 2017 08:11 - 3 minutesToday, learning about science and tech is all play. Well, and maybe just a little work. You don’t need to be a fab-lab rat to work this simple 3-D printer. Kids can design their own objects using free software or print a predesigned trinket. | $250 (Ages 14+) It’s no Retina display, but Kano’s 16x8-pixel grid still dazzles.

To Survive the Streets, Self-Driving Cars Must Learn to Think Like Humans
October 20, 2017 08:11 - 10 minutesNext time you’re driving down the road or walking down the street, pause to consider how you read your surroundings. How you pay extra attention to the kid kicking a soccer ball around her front lawn and the slightly wobbly, nervous looking cyclist. How you deprioritize the woman striding toward the street, knowing she’s heading for the group of friends waving to her from the sidewalk. Learn more about your ad choices.

ZTE's Axon M Pushes For a Dual-Screen Phone Future
October 19, 2017 08:11 - 6 minutesOver the years, every so often, companies come along with a bold proclamation: The smartphone was designed wrong. Never mind that it's the most popular device ever created, or that it's occasioned countless markets and upended the way we live. What if it looked like, you know, something else? Usually such proclamations come from some dude with a Kickstarter, or as a Hail Mary from a flailing company. But now ZTE—the world's fourth-largest phone maker—has something.

Google Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL Review: There Is No Better Android Phone
October 18, 2017 08:11 - 13 minutesIf I had to pick the moment I most appreciated the Google Pixel 2, it would be when our airboat driver-slash-tour guide put a hot dog and a piece of raw chicken in his pocket, dove into the New Orleans swamp, and began playing with a giant gator named Who Dat. I’m no social media whiz, but I knew there was Instagram gold unfolding in front of me. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Review: Amazon Fire HD 8 (2017)
October 17, 2017 08:11 - 5 minutesDo you prefer your candy bars king size, regular, or fun size? I’ve always favored the middle. Regular size bars are big enough to satisfy, but not so huge that I feel that pang of guilt in my sugar-ridden stomach. Buying a tablet from Amazon is similar. You can opt for a cute 7-inch Fire, but there’s a good chance it’ll feel too small. Or you can buy a big 10-inch Fire, which, for some, will be unwieldy. The 8-inch Fire? In my opinion, it’s just right. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit...
Q&A: Angela Robinson, the Director Behind This Year’s Other Must-See Wonder Woman Movie
October 16, 2017 08:11 - 15 minutesEight years. It took writer/director Angela Robinson eight years to make her film about Wonder Woman’s origins. In that time Wonder Woman went from one of the few mainstream DC Comics characters not to have a standalone movie to being a bonafide box office powerhouse. In that time Robinson went from thinking she would never get her movie made to filming it during a hectic 25 days in October 2016, when her cast and crew thought America was about to elect its first female president. Eight years...
Review: Amazon Fire HD 10 (2017)
October 13, 2017 08:11 - 7 minutesOpening up the Amazon Fire HD 10 will tell you everything you need to know about it. It doesn’t come in an immaculate white box, like an iPad or fancy Galaxy tablet, and there is no lid that makes that pleasant suction sound as you gently lift it, revealing a glass and metal slab so pristine it could part the heavens. Nope—my Fire HD 10 came in a cardboard pouch. Like a FedEx box, you simply tear a tab off and yank out your brand-new Fire. But hey, that’s OK. Learn more about your ad choices....
Why the Internet Is Freaking Out Over the Porgs in the 'Last Jedi' Trailer
October 12, 2017 08:11 - 4 minutesR2-D2. Ewoks. BB-8. With nearly every addition to the Star Wars film franchise, there has been some new creature or droid that has delighted audiences and found its way onto lunchboxes and pajama bottoms. Star Wars: The Last Jedi will be no different. This time around, though, the fandom’s obsession with the movie’s creature du jour is already in full swing long before the flick hits theaters.

Google Pixelbook: Price, Specs, and Release Date
October 11, 2017 08:11 - 4 minutesLast time Google made the best Chromebook ever, it was the Chromebook Pixel . The boxy, beautiful $1,000 laptop wasn't designed to go everywhere with you so much as to be so outrageously impressive that it might prompt someone to ask, "Wait, that's a Chromebook?" Google made it to prove a point, not take over the market. This time, Google went a different way. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Why Facebook Users Should Download Messenger Lite Instead of Messenger
October 10, 2017 08:11 - 6 minutesStatistically speaking, there’s a pretty good chance you’re one of the 1.2 billion people who use Facebook Messenger at least once a month. Anecdotally, there’s a decent chance you harbor deep resentments toward its sluggishness, its bloat, and its liberally borrowed Snapchat features. Friends, there’s a better way.

Google Home Mini Puts Assistant Anywhere and Everywhere
October 09, 2017 08:11 - 4 minutesThe market for devices like the Amazon Echo and Google Home is so new that nobody really knows anything, except that smart speakers are fun as hell and they're probably important to the connected future of everything. Somehow. We're firmly in the spaghetti-throwing phase of the technology, as companies experiment in public to find out what works.

Google’s Gadget Vision: Same Stuff, Different Screens
October 06, 2017 08:11 - 8 minutesFirst thing in the morning, the second your head pops off the pillow, you reach over and grab your Pixel off the nightstand.

MTV's Bringing Back 'TRL'—But It's Not the (Carson) Daly Show Anymore
October 05, 2017 08:11 - 9 minutesIt’s been almost a decade since anyone watched TRL and since then everything about its primary foci—music videos, celebrity culture, TV consumption—has changed. So when the network announced in July that it was bringing back its afternoon music-video countdown show, the prevailing question was: “Why?” TRL , the MTV show formerly known as Total Request Live , went off the air in 2008. On November 16 of that year, to be exact; Beyoncé performed its swan song. Learn more about your ad choices. V...
Candylab’s New Wooden Cars Swing Into the Prohibition Era
October 04, 2017 08:11 - 4 minutesFive years ago, Vlad Dragusin began making wooden cars in the evenings and on weekends. At the time, he was an architect at the design studio Gensler, and the cars were just a hobby—a way to escape the real world obstacles inherent in designing buildings. “With architecture, it gets to the point where you’re spending this much time on other things,” he says stretching his arms wide, “and this much time on design.” The cars, on the other hand, were pure design.

Stop the Endless Scroll. Delete Social Media From Your Phone
October 03, 2017 08:11 - 5 minutesMost of the time, I navigate to my social media apps reflexively, as though my finger and the icons are magnets. I don't even realize I'm doing it until my thumb taps the Instagram icon on my screen. Again. And again. And again. It’s a dirty digital habit, and it doesn’t make me happy. Maybe you can relate. Studies have repeatedly found that while social media connects us to one another, it also makes us feel bad. And yet, we do it anyway. We do it because we can’t stop. Learn more about your...
Amazon's New Fire TV Gives Alexa One More Place to Live
October 02, 2017 08:11 - 3 minutesAmazon's new Fire TV looks more like a Chromecast than a typical set-top box. It's a small rectangle attached to an HDMI cable, meant to go right behind your TV. But the tiny thing packs heat: It supports 4K and HDR, Dolby Atmos sound, and all the games and apps on the Fire TV. And most important, it supports Alexa, which Amazon hopes will be the remote control of the future. Amazon's announcement was full of little digs at the new Apple TV. It's $69.99, not $179.99—for $79. Learn more about ...
Review: Nintendo SNES Classic Edition
September 29, 2017 08:11 - 9 minutesEven just mentioning the Super Nintendo brings memories flooding back: there’s little me, sitting in the playroom at the top of the stairs in my house in Massachusetts, battling my sister in Donkey Kong Country. She still swears she didn’t need my help, but deep down she knows I was the only one who could hack the mine cart levels. My family got a SNES a couple of years after its 1991 release, and didn’t upgrade for the better part of a decade. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastc...
A Brief History of the Ever-Expanding Tweet
September 28, 2017 08:11 - 7 minutesFor as long as Twitter has existed, it has been a place of brevity, if not levity. The 140 character limit—originally created so that tweets could fit into single SMS messages—is as much a part of the brand as the silhouetted bird. You want to yell about the NFL, hurl some insults at the president, or debate the parentage of Kylie Jenner’s unborn child? Fine. Just make it quick. Learn more about your ad choices.

'Star Trek: Discovery' Is Worth the Price of CBS All Access—Maybe
September 27, 2017 08:11 - 10 minutesLast night, CBS finally took the wraps off its oft-delayed new show , Star Trek: Discovery . The two-part debut ("The Vulcan Hello" and "Battle at the Binary Stars") gave fans the first new TV Trek since Star Trek: Enterprise ceased subspace transmission in 2005.

Sean Spicer's Emmys Appearance Tops This Week's News Roundup
September 26, 2017 08:11 - 3 minutesOver the last seven days, the internet has been full of unwelcome nostalgia: Here's some nuclear brinksmanship! Here's Puerto Rico, decimated by a natural disaster ! Here's the Senate, planning to vote on yet another healthcare plan to repeal Obamacare! But it's not all been familiar badness; there's been some new ill-feeling torment, as well. Just look below, if you don't believe us. Learn more about your ad choices.

HP Omen 15 Review: Decent Performance, But Man Is It Ugly
September 25, 2017 08:11 - 5 minutesGaming laptops tend have a certain reputation in the design department. I guess that the teams that work on these systems do so in a vacuum, and they feed off of the designs of other gaming laptops in an attempt to one-up their competitors’ audacity with each new release. It’s the only explanation I can think of for why the recent Alienware 13 looks the way it does, and the only explanation I can fathom for the design of HP’s latest release of the Omen, the Omen 15.

Zack Snyder Left *Justice League*—Then He Made an iPhone Movie
September 22, 2017 08:11 - 7 minutesSix months ago, in the face of tragedy, Zack Snyder stepped away from the upcoming Justice League movie. While the director and his wife dealt with the death of their 20-year-old daughter, Autumn, Joss Whedon stepped in to finish the film—and changed the conversation around Justice League considerably.

Review: Apple iPhone 8 and 8 Plus
September 21, 2017 08:11 - 10 minutesThe first place I took the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus was a sticky, late-summer wedding just outside of Austin. It turned out to be the perfect way to stress-test the new devices. The iPhones 8 have new cameras designed to hack it even on a drunken dance floor. Faster processors made downtime game-playing run smoother. They’re also easier to charge, so you’re less likely to get stuck with a dead phone at the end of the night. Everything works great.

Jaybird Freedom 2 Wireless Headphones Review: Same Great Sound, Now Easier to Wear
September 20, 2017 08:11 - 4 minutesThere are two schools of thought regarding wireless headphones. There's the AirPods camp, which believes true wireless is the only wireless, and the best way to listen to music is with two individual buds shoved into your ear canals. To the other crew, wires going behind your head or around your neck aren't so bad; in fact, they might be better, since they're harder to lose and easier to manage. To them, the only cord that must be severed is the one between phone and ear. Learn more about you...
