Installing a solid-state drive is one of the best upgrades you can make for your desktop computer. And the easiest way to get one into your system is to physically install it, connect the right cables, and reinstall Windows from scratch.

With a couple of six-plus hour trips coming up in the next few months, I’ve been taking notes on how to survive long flights. It’s been a few years since I’ve been on an international trip, and while I was able to nap for more or less the whole trip in college and high school, I have a sneaking suspicion sleep won’t…

I’m jealous of dog people. You can meet a dog by just walking up to it on the street. A typical dog trusts you instantly. But the average cat must be won over. I talked to three cat behavior experts, who explained why cats are like this, and walked through strategies for making friends with someone else’s cat, even in…

I was never cool(?) enough to be invited to a “kegger” in college, but I did drink a lot of beer, and I hosted a few parties.

I am two things in the morning: angry and nauseated. I have always been this way, even as a youth, which made getting to physical chemistry at 7 a.m. all the more difficult. Frying an egg for breakfast was simply not an option, but I’d be so hungry during lecture that I’d end up eating my lunch (usually a ham…

Some parents, I’m realizing, are good at mornings. I’m not one of them, but I’d like to be, and I sort of have to be, especially as my kid heads off to kindergarten where there are school bells and real tardy slips.

This is a damn good month for Netflix. Hell, we didn’t even know American Vandal was coming back, but those documentarians have found another case! A “stomach-churning mystery at a Washington high school,” according to Netflix! It’s the fake true crime of the century! This month we’re getting a lot of promising new…

Coconut oil has a great reputation as a healthy, natural, even miraculous substance—even though, as far as we can tell, it never really did anything to earn that reputation. Now a professor is making headlines for calling it “poison” in a lecture in Germany. What do you really need to know about coconut oil?

Chase customers are getting a one-of-a-kind new perk next week: at least 100 free trades per year in an investing platform they can access from their bank accounts.

In April, Google brought a new confidential mode to Gmail’s desktop version, allowing you to send emails that automatically expire. The idea being that if you use Gmail to send confidential information (which let’s face it, isn’t the safest idea), then using the confidential mode will make that decision a little bit…

“I am a big believer in making sure you have a network,” says Marianna Tessel, who first used her computer science skills in the Israeli military before working at General Magic, Ariba, Docker, and VMware. We talked to her about her work habits, her position at Intuit, and how she keeps a sense of humor around the…

I know it’s summer and everything, but weighted blankets can work wonders for your anxiety in addition to keeping you warm, and you can score a 15-pounder for just $70 today, one of the best deals we’ve ever seen. Not to stress you out, but we wouldn’t expect this deal to last for long.

The social media network known as Mastodon is sort of an anti-Twitter: quiet, calm, and pretty much free of Nazis. People have been flocking to it lately, only to get confused by the way it’s set up—which is a shame, because it’s not that hard to get started. Here’s how.

Back when I was in college, “gaming” with your friends meant stalking the single PlayStation 2 in the common area until the Madden players gave it up, making friends with the guy who lugged his Xbox (and big-ass Dukes) to his dorm room, or joining the crew that Ethernet-connected four Xboxes together for weekly Halo…
