Perplexity, the AI search engine and chatbot, is introducing technology that connects its online modules directly to applications on your Mac. While I’m still not entirely sure how it works in practice, the concept sounds promising. I’ve found agent-style browsing to be mixed so far—especially with Perplexity’s own “Computer” feature and Google’s Gemini—but if this […]
Rumble, the Canadian “uncensored” competitor to YouTube, is still an emerging platform. It doesn’t yet have the same level of coder support as YouTube (no built-in AI transcript search, easy exports, etc.). However, because Rumble is more open, you can often download a video’s transcript/captions directly on your device—no third-party tools needed! (Tested on Windows)We’re […]
X’s Grok chatbot is a great tool, and the way it’s integrated into X is super useful. You can push the Grok button on a post draft and have it enhance or rewrite it in whatever style you want. It’s a pretty nifty feature in this golden age of AI—one I’d like to see rolled […]

Starting at $599 for the 256GB model, it matches the entry price of its predecessor while doubling the base storage from 128GB, which provides users with noticeably more […]
Another day, another Samsung launch, another disappointment. It’s been 6 years since Samsung released the S20 Ultra, and yet their flagship phone in the big ’26 has the same capacity battery as the phone that released when I was in 8th grade, in the pre-COVID era, launching little rockets against my rivals. Now, a trend […]
Ninebot, by Segway, is an electric scooter brand. I will be reviewing the Segway E2 Plus II Electric Scooter, referred to as the Ninebot E Plus (or sometimes Ninebot E2 Plus) in the mobile application. There are a few discrepancies, such as the box claiming about 12.3 miles of range while the website states 16 […]
Sony offers a feature on their Xperia phones that lets you zoom to a specific length. This keeps the camera stable and makes videos look more cinematic. Samsung has a similar feature on their phones as well in Pro Video mode.
