The best iPad deals you can get right now

While the best iPad deals usually land during major sale events like Black Friday, many great iPad deals are available outside of those moments. The day-to-day discounts come and go like the changing winds, so there’s often some amount to be saved somewhere, particularly on Apple’s most affordable iPad and the latest iPad Mini. Hell, you […] Read more ›

The Pocket Taco is the best way to turn your phone into a Game Boy

My ongoing quest to turn my iPhone into one of my favorite consoles of all time has led me to a curiously named controller. GameSir's Pocket Taco is only barely pocketable, and distinctly lacking in taco fillings, but for $35, it's an excellent and easy way to turn your phone into a Game Boy-inspired handheld […] Read more ›

Anker’s USB-C cable that lets you charge two gadgets at once is 20 percent off

Monday, February 16th, is Presidents Day, and there are plenty of good deals happening on tech in the run-up to the holiday. Even if you don’t snag any huge upgrades, though, you likely already own multiple gadgets that you need to recharge each and every day. It would sure be nice to be able to […] Read more ›

Returning stolen artifacts becomes a thrilling heist in Relooted

Colonialism is not merely about occupying nations. It's a project of mass violence, part of which involves total erasure and the widespread theft of some of the most culturally significant artifacts in the world. Even today, colonizing nations proudly display stolen artifacts, acting as peacocking robbers under the guise of tourism. See, for example, the […] Read more ›

Ring’s Flock breakup doesn’t fix its real problem

The most striking thing about Ring's statement that it had parted ways with Flock Safety is what the home security company didn't say. There was no mention of the public backlash around ties to ICE, or any promise to address users' concerns about the company's relationships with law enforcement. In an increasingly authoritarian political climate, […] Read more ›

DJI’s first robovac is an autonomous cleaning drone you can’t trust

It's been eight years since I last reviewed a robot vacuum. Having spent the last two months with a new flagship, I'm shocked by how much they've advanced from early bump-and-run models. In October, DJI launched its very first robovacs in Europe. I've been testing the top-of-the-line Romo P model, which doesn't yet have a […] Read more ›

The DJI Romo robovac had security so poor, this man remotely accessed thousands of them

Sammy Azdoufal claims he wasn't trying to hack every robot vacuum in the world. He just wanted to remote control his brand-new DJI Romo vacuum with a PS5 gamepad, he tells The Verge, because it sounded fun. But when his homegrown remote control app started talking to DJI's servers, it wasn't just one vacuum cleaner […] Read more ›

4chan’s creator says ‘Epstein had nothing to do’ with creating infamous far-right board /pol/

The close timing of Jeffrey Epstein coming into contact with 4chan founder Chris 'moot' Poole and the launch of the "politically incorrect" message board /pol/ that became a breeding ground for QAnon and the white supremacist alt-right movement was coincidental, says Poole. In a statement given to The Verge, Pool writes, "The decision to add […] Read more ›

The Verge’s 2026 Valentine’s Day gift guide (for him)

Valentine's Day is often thought of as the quintessential Hallmark holiday - and why wouldn't it be? Most of the time, it's marketed to us with massive floral arrangements and heart-shaped chocolates, both of which can come off as borderline twee. But no one says you have to play by the rulebook when it comes […] Read more ›

Can Democrats post their way to midterm victories?

During the 2024 presidential election, @KamalaHQ was something of an alter ego for Vice President Kamala Harris - as Harris ran a buttoned-up campaign, the online accounts shared clips of her set to viral TikTok sounds, shitposted unflattering pictures of Donald Trump, and adopted a voice that was at times indistinguishable from the average 20-something […] Read more ›

As part of its acquisition by China-based Picea Robotics, iRobot is creating a new US-based subsidiary called iRobot Safe, which the company says will be "responsible for the protection of US consumer data," similar to the TikTok deal that was completed last month. iRobot customers in the US will be able to continue using their […] Read more ›
