It’s fair to say that the MacBook Neo has taken the world by storm. Apple’s products have been expensive for quite a long time, but the Neo’s unique combination of affordable price (thanks in part to the laptop’s iPhone chip), fun colors, and clever hardware compromises make it a legitimately good option for people in the market for a new computer. The Neo’s mere existence also upsets the company’s laptop lineup in interesting ways. Some of these, like the MacBook Air’s new starting cost of $1099, can be partially blamed on the growing price of RAM and a helpful storage…

And no, I’m not talking about what theme it has, the extensions installed, or even the performance tweaks. What I never skip is switching the DNS, simply because it affects browsing speed, privacy, and security. So if DNS isn’t optimized, everything that follows feels slightly slower, less private, and more restricted than it should be. Related This is the best DNS I’ve used—and it’s not because it’s fast NextDNS is actually plenty fast, but it’s other features make it…
The upcoming iPhone Fold will be Apple’s first and long-awaited foray into foldable smartphones, and it’s forecasted to be a big hit. According to a new report from TrendForce , Cupertino’s first foldable will help it reach a 19.3% market share for foldables in 2026, which would directly slot it into the third spot behind Huawei and Samsung.

In mid-April 2026, a powerful typhoon bore down on the Mariana Islands in the North Pacific Ocean. The storm, Super Typhoon Sinlaku, was notable for reaching such exceptional strength so early in the year.

At the time, the storm carried sustained winds of around 280 kilometers (175 miles) per hour. That places it as a violent typhoon—the highest intensity on the scale used by the Japan Meteorological Agency and equivalent to a…
