Anthropic just rolled out a genuinely useful update. Computer use in Claude Cowork and Claude Code now lets Claude work in the background on your Mac, meaning it clicks, types, and opens apps while you do literally anything else. How does Claude work in the background without taking over my screen? Claude now runs in a background window instead of taking over your display. That means you can keep browsing, writing, or coding while Claude quietly handles its own task behind the scenes. Claude can now use your computer in the background in Claude Cowork and Claude Code.Give it something…
The Range Rover has never been shy about luxury, size or price, and its first fully electric version is carrying that tradition into the EV era. Jaguar Land Rover’s (JLR) first battery-electric Range Rover is now open for orders, starting at £154,070, or about $208,420. That makes it one of the most expensive electric SUVs on the market. The electric model costs almost £50,000 more than the standard combustion-engine Range Rover. It is priced in the same territory as the electric Mercedes-Benz G 580 and not far from ultra-luxury gasoline SUVs such as the Bentley Bentayga. That puts the Range…
Labor Day wearable sales are packed with questionable no-name watches and discounts that aren’t really tied to the holiday. I filtered those out. These four are explicitly part of Amazon or Best Buy’s Labor Day sales, cover different budgets and use cases, and actually look worth buying. Samsung Galaxy Watch7 40mm Best Buy marks the Galaxy Watch7 as a Labor Day Deal at $189.99, down from $249.99. Despite being a 2024 model, it’s still an excellent Android smartwatch thanks to its bright AMOLED display, dual-frequency GPS, and broad health features. In our Galaxy Watch7 review, we found it fast, polished,…
Acer’s Vero series has spent several generations building a reputation for eco-conscious PCs. At IFA 2026 in Berlin, Acer gave the line its biggest update yet with the new Vero 16, a laptop that pairs deep repairability with genuinely capable hardware, marking a big step up from earlier Vero models. The redesigned notebook combines a serviceable, recycled-aluminum chassis with Intel’s latest Core Ultra chips and a 16-inch OLED display. Easier repairs, longer lifespan With the latest Vero model, Acer has leveled up its sustainability approach from 3R (reduce, reuse, recycle) to 4R, adding repairability as a core design principle. The…
Smart glasses started as Google’s awkward, premature vision of wearable computing over a decade ago, but they’ve lately devolved into a full-blown public nuisance. Norway is now moving to rein them in. The country’s digital minister, Karianne Tung, has said that the government is weighing tighter regulations on smart glasses from companies like Meta and Snap, according to an AFP report. What the proposed rules would cover Tung described a clear trend toward combining AI with cameras and microphones built into glasses, headphones, and other everyday objects, and said the goal is to stop that equipment from being used to…
If you’ve been letting Google’s AI Mode handle your shopping research, you might want to double-check those prices. Researchers at Product Rise found that when the same product appeared in both AI Mode and traditional Google Search, the AI-powered experience showed a price that was 21.6% higher on average. The study compared AI Mode against traditional Google Search The team ran the same shopping searches through both versions at the same time, across the US and UK. They found that the 21.6% gap is only the headline. If you look at every product on both sides, not just the matching…
Released in 2002 for the PlayStation 2, the original Stuntman was a great concept that, for me anyway, proved far too challenging to be fun. Perfection was demanded, and extreme specificity was required for progress. It took all the fun out of controlling a car in a video game, which I imagine is how movie stunt drivers probably really feel after the fifth take of the same sequence, so in that way maybe it was a perfect simulation of the stunt driving experience.But I have always remained enamored with the fun concept. Who wouldn’t want to drive a stunt car…
Samsung may be preparing to put its own processor back inside the Galaxy S Ultra after a five-year absence. A report from Korean publication MoneyToday claims the company is developing an Exynos 2700 version of the Galaxy S27 Ultra, which would be the first Ultra model to use Exynos since the Galaxy S22 Ultra launched in 2022. Recent Galaxy S Ultra models have relied on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon chips, and the Galaxy S27 Ultra had also been expected to stick with Qualcomm. Samsung may finally trust Exynos with the Ultra again The report says Samsung has ordered Galaxy S27 Ultra motherboards…

Scam texts and emails pretending to be from Amazon have gotten good enough to fool even careful users. Amazon says it fields questions from 360,000 customers a year who just want to know if a message they received is actually real. Starting today, you can skip the guesswork and just ask Alexa for Shopping. How Alexa actually checks if a message is real You can ask Alexa like “did Amazon send me a text about a delivery problem yesterday,” and include any details you have, such as the sender’s number or email, when it arrived, and what it said.
