Ray Tracing and 4K are the most-talked-about capabilities of Nvidia’s GeForce RTX graphics cards. The DLSS feature these GPUs can use doesn’t get as much buzz, but it’s just as impressive — especially given the magic it can work on frame rates for those playing on low and mid-range hardware.

“Dry January” — like its sister month, “Sober October” — is marked by a sudden influx of annoying PR emails. Seltzer, soda, tea, and juice brands fill my inbox with all sorts of beverage “recipes” aimed at people who are trying not to drink. Most of them are elaborate, but…
Something primal has awakened in me, and my devotion to the bacon fat lifestyle has been renewed. I don’t know if it’s finally getting a fridge that’s big enough to accommodate my vintage grease crock, or the cold, rainy weather, but something has got me cooking everything in rendered animal…

At least two gorillas at the San Diego Zoo have tested positive for COVID-19, the zoo has announced. They aren’t the first animals to contract the coronavirus in this pandemic, and they probably won’t be the last.
Discovering that anyone in the home — but particularly one of the kids — is allergic to the family pet can be upsetting. Our pets are members of our family, so discovering that their mere presence is negatively impacting the health or physical comfort of your child creates a stressful…
Protein powder is gross in most things, I’ll be honest about that. It makes oatmeal gooey, and it’s an acquired taste in almost everything but smoothies (where it’s mostly hidden by the ingredients). But there’s one dish of actual food where it’s truly at home, and that is a bowl…
Later today, Nvidia’s “GeForce RTX: Game On” live event will give us our first look at the company’s latest gaming-focused hardware. (Here’s hoping any new announcements drop the price and raise the availability of its top-shelf graphics cards.)

Pre-warning, as you read this you’re going to think things like “I’ve been applying sunscreen it all wrong”, “This explains a few of those bad sunburns” and “Really? That much?!” I know, I know. Talking about sun safety is hardly a fun time. But it’s a fact of life that no Aussie can…
Canoes and kayaks are always fun, but the trendiest water sport this summer is stand-up paddle boarding (also known as SUP). It’s lots of fun, relatively easy to learn and can even provide an excellent core workout too. Depending on your skill level, there’s even room for a dog or…
After Wednesday’s storming of the Capitol by a pro-Trump mob, House Democrats have made impeaching the president a renewed priority, even as the clock ticks down on the last days of his term. So far, House lawmakers’ efforts to levy impeachment proceedings are contingent on whether Vice President Mike Pence…
I won’t bemoan the the right-wing exodus from Twitter, Facebook, and various other social networks over the past few months. (The fewer people sharing messages of support for armed insurrection or coddling Nazis on my social networks, the better.) But the fact that many of of these people fled to…
I was struck the other day by the most basic pre-pandemic desire: I wish I could go out to eat with my husband and son. It’s not that I miss the food that much — we’ve gotten a lot of takeout and dined outdoors a few times before winter hit….

A blender is a fantastic addition to the home. It can help you make soups for dinner parties, smoothies for a nutritious breakfast, mix up protein shakes for workouts and so much more. And as blenders have become more sophisticated, they have diversified and there’s now a lot of choice between…
I’m almost surprised I have to write this, but when my friends and roommates come to me with technological quirks to solve, I always hit them with one answer off the top of my head. And more often than not, it’s the single thing they need to do to fix…
If there’s one thing you can count on on the internet, it’s nothing. The whole thing is made of lies, rumours, conjecture, and outrage. But while adults believe lies like “the election was fake” and attempt to destroy American democracy over it, kids believe dumb rumours about Kanye West and…
At one point or another, most of us have found food at the back of our freezer not looking quite right. While freezer burn may not post a health risk, it can impact the quality of your food.
While it might be cliché, I can’t deny the fact that I’m the living embodiment of those “hilarious” Don’t Talk to Me Until I’ve Had My Coffee! mugs. Especially since the pandemic, my body has determined the most convenient time to decide I don’t need to sleep is the same time…
Microsoft’s Outlook and email apps on Windows, Mac, and the web are getting some big changes in the coming months as part of the company’s “One Outlook” initiative. Why wait, though? You can get a preview of what your Outlook experience is going to turn into right now.
