Everybody deserves to get time off for all of their hard work. There’s no question about it! However, depending on where you live, what company or client you work with, and what your contract states, getting some (un)paid time off can be harder than you think.The sad reality is that some employers think that taking time off is tantamount to laziness, which could not be further from the truth. Redditor u/DomiBlushes1998, who cares for two elderly people, recently turned to the r/EntitledPeople subreddit for advice on…

Intel Intel’s “Special Edition” KS chips are meant to be over the top. But the latest Core i9-14900KS has just dropped, and it takes things to new heights of insanity. It’s a super-clocked version of the already ludicrous 14900K that sports the same great quantity of cores, but a boost clock that moves even beyond the extremes of the standard 14900K. It can hit an unprecedented 6.2GHz on a couple of cores right out of the box, making it the fastest CPU by clock speed ever unleashed upon the public. But in modern…

Stellan Skarsgård might be known for his broody collaborations with director Lars von Trier (Melancholia, Nymphomaniac), for his Golden Globe-winning work in the HBO miniseries Chernobyl or as the terrifying Baron Vladimir Harkonnen in Dune and Dune: Part Two. But to some circles of the Internet, he's simply Bill Anderson from the forever rewatchable Mamma Mia! movies.It was a joyfully silly role that was seemingly out of character for the otherwise serious Swede, an unexpectedness that the actor himself was taken back…

Andy Boxall / Digital Trends The Tecno Pova 6 Pro has a mad name, comes in a mad green color, and has an equally unhinged design. It’s undoubtedly the craziest-looking smartphone announced at Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2024, and we haven’t even started to get into the crazy features yet. I spent a long weekend with the Tecno Pova 6 Pro, a phone you probably won’t ever get to buy, but one you should definitely know about. It has managed to capture my heart in a way I didn’t really expect. Tecno’s crazy and mad…

Needless to say, many things we do as kids—as grown-ups later in life, even—come from our upbringing and the things our parents instill in us. And while most of them typically try their best at being parents, some of their values or beliefs might be questionable at best.For instance, telling your child that perfectionism should always be the standard might not be a healthy approach, nor arguably is encouraging them to work day, night, and weekends to show their dedication. These are just a couple of examples millennials…

It's 2024, and the capitalist overabundance of things doesn't seem like it will go away anytime soon. One of the best examples of this is fast fashion. It seems that no matter how much awareness and how many sustainable fashion bloggers are out there, they're still outweighed by the SHEIN haul girlies on YouTube and TikTok.You might ask yourself: 'Why are brands like SHEIN, AliExpress, etc. still alive?' I'd say their only function is to fuel groups like this. The Facebook page "It's Called FaSHEIN Sweaty" dedicates its…

I wouldn’t call it an atmospheric river, because those come and go. DMV mail falls in a never-ending rain, without regard to seasons.Not that it’s all bad news from readers who, like good soldiers, dutifully report every development from the front lines of the battle to renew their driver’s licenses.Rosa Maria Juarez, 94, shared a success story. The Montebello resident, who assured me she’s a safe and conscientious driver, passed easily and offered to coach me when I take the test later this year.Here’s a pro tip from…

After causing a stir by mysteriously grounding its new Airbus A321neo planes on Monday, United Airlines wants people to know the decision has nothing to do with safety and isn’t even that exciting. Rather, it has to do with the aircrafts’ “No Smoking” signs, which are required by a 1990 law to be operated by the flight crew.Former NASA Astronaut Leland Melvin on the “Overview Effect”That’s not the case on the A321neo, which has software that keeps the “No Smoking” sign turned on continuously during flights, like many…

Folks have historically made fun of the likes of Wish and Craigslist for featuring items and services that raise more questions than they answer.Well, apparently, Amazon is guilty of this too. On a smaller scale, but one that still exists. And you bet there’s a dedicated online group that’s all about sharing the gems found on it, namely the subreddit r/AmazonWTF, or The Deep, Dark Rabbit Hole Of Amazon.com. Folks have historically made fun of the likes of Wish and Craigslist for featuring items and services that…
