ChopValue repurposes old chopsticks into some pretty cool stuff like coasters, shelving, furniture, wall decor, and beyond. That means less waste in the landfill, and that's better for everyone.

The experts say kava remains one of the safest and most effective anti-anxiety herbs
Some plants have a bad rap. That could be due to decades of misinformation, federal criminality, or off-kilter regulatory bureau or agency limitations for one reason or another. I'm no doctor. And I'm not qualified to tell you what's good for your health in terms of consumption and what's not. But I think we can..
Candid Review: WearIQ wireless smart audio glasses
I stare at screens all day long with three monitors on my desktop. I sometimes use a laptop with a secondary monitor. Of course, I have my phone, and a Steam Deck I like to play games on. You don’t need to hear all this. It’s not bragging. I’m trying to point out how ridiculous..

Newegg sales like TechTember are an excellent time to upgrade your rig
I built my core desktop. I've actually been building custom PCs for a very long time, well before most of the process was color-coordinated. Definitely, before the process was much easier.

Man Labs products are tailored for distinguished gentlemen, specifically, with advanced formulas that purport to be effective at reducing signs of aging.

FreSound Inspiration open earbuds are 50% off for a limited time
I don't know about everyone else, but I'm a big fan of open-ear design earbuds and headphones. There are a few reasons. First, they tend to be more comfortable, and with their hook-style design, using elements that secure behind the ear, they stay in place better than traditional earbuds. Second, and this could be considered..

Candid Review: Anbernic RG505 retro handheld
I talk about my Steam Deck a lot I know. I probably sound like a broken record at times because I love it. But I know it’s not perfect. I wish the battery life were better. I also feel that sometimes it’s too big to lug around. Wanting something smaller, geared more towards emulation, I..
The award-winning Bruvi brewer gets a subscription bundle — Just $189
I know what you're thinking, and I feel the same way. Why does everything on the planet have to have a subscription these days?

It works. I don’t know the exact science, and I’ll do my best to explain some of it below, but the biggest thing you should take away from this review is that I’ve been using the Card on Guard tube in my pool for over a month, a little longer actually, and it works. While..
