So it’s not like I’m always out here talking about Virtual Private Networks; I’m not a YouTube ad read. But the few times I bring them up in polite company, the conversation screeches to a halt as I slowly realize that nobody knows what I’m talking about. Thankfully, that’s changing as VPNs become more of a known quantity and the industry consolidates into the hands of a few big companies (weird, that sounds familiar). In the meantime, the $190 ExpressVPN Aircove router is intended to be there, waiting, as more folks look…

Modern smart scales can measure more than just a user’s weight; they also capture other useful health metrics, which is good motivation to use them frequently. But for those mornings when you would rather not know how you’re weighing in, Withings’ new Body Smart scale will still take those measurements, but hide them from its built-in screen.Long before smartwatches transitioned to being wearable health monitors, Withings’ smart scales were measuring everything from a user’s weight, to muscle mass, to BMI, to even their…

However, one of the most overlooked after-effects of the inevitable episodic rehash is that Fantastic Beasts has almost certainly been dragged around the back of the studio’s HQ…

A reference to a third entry in Valve‘s Left 4 Dead series has been found in the files of the developer’s latest game, Counter-Strike 2. As highlighted by fans on Steam’s subreddit (via Eurogamer), a line reading “Left4Dead3” appears in the code for Counter-Strike 2, which was revealed earlier in the month. While the “severity” of Left 4 Dead 3 is listed as “high” in the code, its priority is listed at “none” — suggesting that if this code is anything to go by, Valve isn’t in a rush to create the long-awaited follow-up.…

Helen Mirren’s latexed and enhanced portrayal of Golda Meir, Israel’s “Iron Lady” prime minister during the 1973 Yom Kippur war, has been overtaken by a debate about “Jewface” casting because Mirren is not Jewish – addressing why Jews are casually excluded from the otherwise fiercely policed sensibilities about authenticity and identity on screen. (Would they get a white actor, for example, to black up as President Anwar Sadat?) It’s a valid and important question, but not exactly the problem in this stately, stuffy and…

Taking a break from the mundane, cookie-cutter electric crossovers that have been filling the market, Audi is exploring a more rugged, adventure-ready breed of electric utility vehicle. The Activesphere concept closes out the automaker's "Sphere" EV concept series and shows how electric tech can be molded into a more versatile multipurpose vehicle.
