Anker fixes the two worst things about power stations
3 hours ago
by Thomas Ricker
Energy, Science, Tech, Work anywhereAnker's Solix S2000 solves two major pain points with power stations: idle power draw that can leave a battery unexpectedly dead, and the large footprint required to hold so much energy. Impressively, it achieves this at an incredibly low introductory price that works out to just $0.29 per Wh. Unlike most other power stations in the 2kWh range, Anker says the S2000 won't suddenly die after a few days due to phantom power draw if you accidentally leave the AC output running. It's also much smaller than most competing mid-range systems designed for vanlifers, job sites, or home backup where

Nintendo keeps finding new ways to reinvent platformers
4 hours ago
by Andrew Webster
Entertainment, Games Review, Gaming, NintendoIn most platforming games, you're fighting against the world around you. You're trying to beat a level, nail a seemingly impossible series of jumps, or defeat a powerful boss. But even though Yoshi and the Mysterious Book uses familiar gameplay - you traverse the world by jumping, climbing, and, uh, eating - it reframes your goal to focus on exploration instead of competition. And in doing so it reimagines the classic side-scrolling platformer as something that feels refreshingly new: laid-back, playful, and bursting with ideas. The new Yoshi game looks like a storybook, and that's because it takes place inside

The Mandalorian and Grogu should have been a season of TV
4 hours ago
by Charles Pulliam-Moore
Disney, Entertainment, Film, Movie Review, Star Wars, StreamingWhen The Mandalorian first debuted on Disney Plus , it was a refreshing reminder of how fascinating Star Wars stories can be when they aren't focused on the same handful of well-established characters. Especially in its first season, the series felt like a sign that Disney was shifting gears after disappointing fans with its last trilogy of big budget features. But as The Mandalorian went on , it became overstuffed with supporting characters and haphazardly introduced lore that did little to make the show feel like must-see TV. The relative weakness of The Mandalorian 's most recent season is part
