Buying food in bulk is a great way to save money on groceries. Problem is, food eventually goes bad when exposed for certain durations, which means your vegetables, fruits, and meats will end up being inedible if you hold off consuming them long enough. Of course, freezing and refrigerating can help, but there’s an added…
The Land Rover Defender has always been known as an off-road beast that does its best work in rugged terrains. While it is quite the luxurious vehicle, it’s not quite as refined as the Range Rover for regular city driving. With the new Land Rover Defender Octa, that all changes. Billed as “the most dynamically…
It’s been many years since Boston Dynamics first introduced their creepy-looking dog robot to the world at large and it’s been a fascinating run, with Spot eventually going on sale to the general public three years ago.

That’s why we’re stoked any time we see portable range hood solutions like…
Many people will say your smartphone is already the best travel camera. Well, they’re not wrong for the most part. It takes amazing photos and videos for such a portable device. As good as smartphone cameras have gotten, they still don’t quite replace the image quality you can get from even compact point-and-shoots and mirrorless…
We’re big fans of smart telescopes that make amateur astronomy extremely accessible. Instead of spending your time trying to find constellations, just tell it what you want and it will find it on its own for you. This time around, they’re squeezing that same autonomous tech into a pair of binoculars in the form of…
Whether you do photography as a hobby or in a professional capacity, chances are, there are photographs in your camera roll that you’ll want to print, frame, and hang up on the wall somewhere.
