Mac: If you’re clipping a bit of text to send in a tweet or saving info from a rental car confirmation page, your standard Command-Shift-4 shortcut for a screenshot is more than adequate. But adding a couple of keystrokes can make all the difference when you want to, say, include a professional-looking image of your company’s webpage in a presentation deck.

There’s a lot of discussion about diversity and inclusion at companies, in particular those focused on tech, but one marginalised group that often gets overlooked is older people.

If you lose one of your AirPods, Apple has you covered (it just won't be cheap), but if you lose the included charging case you could run into some trouble. A recent Reddit thread shows that replacing a lost AirPods case is easier said than done, especially if you don't remember your serial number.

On the latest episode of The Upgrade, we're talking about the self-proclaimed "front page of the internet", the massive online community known as Reddit.

Every year without fail I end up running tech support for an assortment of friends and family when I travel back home for the holidays.

If you notice that your AirPods are getting quieter, they might not be dying a slow death - no, it may be your own natural earwax clogging up the works. Lovely! Quartz has a tip for cleaning them, but it's not for the squeamish.

You may have seen that eBay is running a 20 per cent off promotion in five big tech stores - but you don't want to have to sift through everything to find some of the best deals, right? Lucky for you, we've rounded up some great products going and have all the links you need right here!
