The Best Password Managers for 2026

Think about how many online accounts you use in a typical week. Between work, banking, shopping, streaming, social media, and everything in between, it’s easy to end up managing dozens of passwords. Remembering a different, secure password for every account simply isn’t realistic, which is why so many people fall back on reusing the same login across multiple websites. That’s a recipe for disaster, if you ask any cybersecurity expert. If you’re in a conundrum on how to safely handle digital privacy, password managers are a reliable solution. Rather than trying to remember every single password yourself, a credentials manager…

When you ask an AI shopping assistant to help you find products, you probably expect it to point out misleading listings too. According to a new study, both Amazon and Walmart’s AI tools can detect fake “Made in USA” claims. However, the study claims that retailers are not using those capabilities to flag or remove the misleading listings, even when the AI recognizes conflicting information on the same product page. How did the researchers catch this fraud? According to Reuters, researchers at Columbia Law School’s Center for Law and the Economy tested Amazon’s Alexa for Shopping and Walmart’s Sparky chatbot…

Lenovo leak shows upcoming IdeaCentre desktop that isn’t afraid to ape the iMac

Windows all-in-one desktops have never really been known for turning heads.

While Lenovo hasn’t officially announced the machine yet, the images paint a picture of a desktop that seems perfectly happy borrowing a page from Apple’s playbook…

Gears of War: E-Day Preview – Back To The Front Lines

Gears of War has been on a strange journey over the past seven years. 2019 saw the release of Gears Pop, a Clash Royale-inspired mobile game featuring Funko Pop Gears of War characters and the mainline canon entry, Gears 5 (dropping the “of War” – it’s cleaner). In 2020, spin-off Gears Tactics was released to positive reception, and it seemed the series was on track for consistent new games and worthwhile spin-offs. In fact, Gears 5 felt like the continuation of a new trilogy for the series. Marcus Fenix was still hanging around, but he was more of a supportive…

I went hands-on with Dell’s new slim laptops, and the new 14S hits a sweet spot below XPS prices

Dell’s new XPS 13 recently gave me renewed hope for affordable Windows laptops. Its $699 starting price.

The FCC has already made it much harder for foreign drone makers such as DJI to bring new products into the US. Now, the same crackdown is reaching a machine far more likely to be moving around your living room. The US government recently added foreign-made advanced robotic devices to the FCC’s Covered List. The announcement appeared focused on humanoids, robot dogs, and industrial machines, but an FCC spokesperson has confirmed to The Verge that robot vacuum cleaners are covered too. Future foreign-made Roombas and rival robot vacuums will therefore be unable to receive the FCC authorization needed for sale…
