If you know how to make a video call using the Echo Show, you may have learned it’s easy to chat with friends and family using any of the best smart displays with Alexa built-in. But what if you’re hard of hearing? Or have an easier time following conversations with captions? Maybe you just prefer reading as well as listening. Alexa Call Captioning can add captions to your one-on-one video calls....
The Series was called The Big D and had been scheduled to debut on July 7. Quite frankly with such a questionable name, it’s surprising the show even got this close to being broadcast. However, the show has now been removed from TBS’s upcoming schedule a network representative has confirmed to The Hollywood Reporter (opens in new tab). “We’re assessing our schedule to ensure we have the right content mix to support our network strategies,” TBS said in a statement....
Debuting on The CW in 2018, All American is a sports drama series inspired by the life of football player Spencer Paysinger, who played professionally for a quartet of NFL teams between 2011 and 2017. As noted, the series takes inspiration from Paysinger’s life rather than being a direct retelling of his journey to becoming a pro football player. All American stars Daniel Ezra as Spencer James a star football player in high school in Crenshaw, South L....
Compared to the Smart Health Monitoring Light, all the best smart light bulbs look inane, simply turning on and off with an app or voice assistant. Sengled’s bulb is far more sophisticated, promising sleep tracking along with select biometric measurement tracking. The question is, do I want my light bulb to know how well (or not) I snooze overnight? The Google Nest Hub (Gen 2)’s sleep sensing already creeped me out, feeling that something was watching me while I visited dreamland....
One of the most recent VPN providers to do this is Surfshark. Rated as the best cheap VPN, it’s already an excellent choice for those looking to preserve their online privacy on a budget, and the new Surfshark One package seeks to add to that. Here, we’ll run down what Surfshark One actually offers, how much it costs, how it compares to rival packages and, most importantly, if it’s worth signing up to....
Currently, when you leave a WhatsApp group, a notification will be posted in the chat informing every member of your decision to vacate the group. In most instances, this isn’t a huge problem but if you want to quietly step out of a WhatsApp group without facing any awkward questions, it can be a little irritating having your exit practically announced by megaphone. That’s where this new WhatsApp feature comes in handy....
The Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 is technically now available, but finding it in stock is near impossible. However, we’re optimistic that it won’t suffer quite as severe stock shortages as its predecessor, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3090. That’s because GPU prices are crashing right now as the demand for high-end cards wanes. Nevertheless, the RTX 4090 is still expected to be in short supply over the coming weeks as PC gamers rush to upgrade their rigs....
Wolves sit only just outside the Europa League places, five points behind Tottenham albeit having played a game more. But Manchester United, currently in the Europa Conference qualification position of seventh, are only three points ahead — so a win here could see Wolves back in contention. They’re on a decent run of late, having beaten United last week and with a comfortable 3-0 win against Sheffield United in the FA Cup also behind them....
March 2022 doesn’t see Netflix cut any beloved TV shows, which is why I canceled Netflix earlier this year, but there are a number of beloved (and award-winning) movies that leave Netflix this month. With this list, you’ll have a better chance of making the most of your Netflix subscription this month. And the list of departing films has something for everyone, whether you want a prestigious period piece, thrill-filled horror, joke-filled buddy comedies or a romantic comedy....
While I and many others would love to have a new iPhone every year, these price tags mean that even when times are good financially, upgrading annually is typically not an option, even with the temptation of new features on the table. When times are more difficult, as they are almost ubiquitously in the US and UK at the moment, these list prices make upgrading nearly impossible for many right now....
You probably guessed this was coming, but consider this your spoiler warning for Stranger Things season 4. Instead, episode 9 ended with clouds of dust and ash from the Upside Down spewing over Hawkins, Indiana, and plants decaying before our heroes’ eyes. It turns out Vecna — who it transpires was behind everything that had happened in the previous seasons — had succeeded in opening four gates between the worlds and is now poised to end life as we know it....
Rodgers lost to his Saturday night counterpart, Jimmy Garoppolo, in the 2019 postseason as San Francisco was en route to a Super Bowl appearance. But this is a different and more dominant Packers team in this NFL live stream. The 49ers (10-7) are proud owners of the wild card rounds’ only upset victory as they held on to beat the Cowboys, 23-17. The very versatile Deebo Samuel came up with a 26-yard touchdown run that gave San Francisco a 23-7 lead with 3:03 to go in the third quarter....
And that’s partially because this new model doesn’t change a whole lot. And after around a week of testing the new Apple TV 4K, I’ve found myself feeling stronger about Apple’s way of streaming than I have in a while. Maybe that’s because I just reviewed two 1080p streaming devices (the Roku Express 2022 and the Chromecast with Google TV HD). Or maybe it’s because I just lived through a lot of ads on the Fire TV Cube 2022’s home screen....
As for HBO Max this week, we’ve got a movie that should garner a lot of attention, but in the “who asked for this?” category, as A Christmas Story Christmas is the sequel nobody saw coming. The demand for this sequel likely came from the continued ubiquity of the original on holiday cable TV — but we’re not sure if it’s going to be one of the best HBO Max movies....
Acer’s Spin 311 is exactly what many people expect of a Chromebook: Small, inexpensive, and capable enough to handle work and light play every day. For students, children, or anyone looking for an extremely portable machine that gets the essentials right, the Spin 311 is one of the best Chromebooks for kids and best Chromebooks for students that can also compete with some of the best budget laptops of comparable price....
Apple’s next-gen AirPods Pro 2 arrived last month and have already been awarded a coveted Editor’s Choice badge as one of the best noise-cancelling earbuds we’ve ever heard. They compete with the likes of the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds 2 and Sony WH-1000XM4, and I’ve personally been very impressed with how the AirPods Pro 2 performed as a companion on workouts. Designed for iPhone owners looking for a more tailored listening experience, these are the pinnacle of Apple technology....
We’re still some way off from Black Friday, but early Black Friday deals are going strong with many of our favorite tech products on sale at cheaper than ever prices. Right now the original Apple AirPods Pro are on sale at Walmart for $159 (opens in new tab), which is an amazing $90 savings on the full price of these top-performing original ANC earbuds. In our AirPods Pro review (opens in new tab), we loved the high-quality noise cancellation with Transparency Mode, the snug-in-ear design, and spatial audio support providing one of the most immersive audio experiences....
Another highly useful feature is the included Alexa Voice remote. Our testing found the voice-search functionality to be a little spotty — Alexa struggles to understand thick regional accents — but being able to control your entire TV with just your vocal cords is pretty convenient. And the tactile clicky buttons on the remote are always there if you’d rather scroll through streaming service libraries the old-fashioned way. As for the regular, non-Max model, it also supports 4K video streaming....
Xbox Series X restock tracker — where to look
One user commenting on Reddit (opens in new tab) said: “They claim it’s a bug but the current app I cannot select songs I have paid for or playlists made up of songs I have paid for. It will play on shuffle with ‘similar artists’ added and you are limited to 6 skips per hour.” While another said: “I tried it after seeing the “free upgrade” for prime members. And every song I clicked played a slightly different song (often from the same album or artist)....
