The Lofree Flow 100 is the Magic Keyboard Apple should’ve made

Apple has a striking yet quite unique aesthetic. Combining the flashiness of a brilliant white with the minimalism of its design, Apple hardware is both incredibly usable and a bit of a fashion statement in itself. It's rare you find something that fits the aesthetic well and even rarer when another company does it better. Lofree has managed to do that with one noteworthy flaw.Lofree Flow 100: Price and availability (Image credit: Future / James Bentley)The Lofree Flow 100 comes in at $169 and can currently be bought…

Flatland Cavalry Pay Toby Keith Tribute With ‘Should’ve Been a Cowboy’

Flatland Cavalry frontman Cleto Cordero has pretty sound advice for Red Dirt bar bands making the sudden leap into theaters and onto festival main stages. “Keep your ears open whenever you walk on stage,” Cordero tells Rolling Stone. “We have in-ear monitors, and those things change how you’re perceiving reality.

DiCaprio Should’ve Played FBI Role in ‘Flower Moon’

This laptop with a programmable touchbar is what the MacBook Pro should’ve been

Taylor Clemons/ZDNETIs Corsair's Voyager A1600 one of the most underrated laptops out right now? Possibly. This high-end gaming laptop features an AMD Ryzen 7 6800HS processor, 32GB of RAM, a 1TB SSD, and an AMD Radeon RX 6800M graphics card. And while this is a very respectable build for gamers and content creators, where the Voyager A1600 really shines is the integration with the Elgato Stream Deck in my custom-built tower, and while it can still handle most titles, the Radeon RX 6800Mto play with
