Fairphone will never challenge Samsung for the "top dog" spot of Android phone makers, but the company can have a positive effect on the entire industry.You're probably reading this on a smartphone. It's made of glass and metal and plenty of other recyclable components but as a whole, it would last a very long time with a modicum of care. Yet the companies that make phones are convinced you'll buy a new one within a couple of years.That's bad on many levels. It's bad for our wallets, it's bad for the environment, but most of all, it highlights the fact that companies like Samsung or Apple or even Google are more concerned with selling phones than supporting them in the long term. Some are better than others when it comes to the software, but the repairability of smartphones has reached an all-time low. This needs to change.That's where Fairphone comes into the picture. You might know about the company — it makes a modular Android phone and offers both long term software and h...

Megan Thee Stallion has had quite the 2020. Along with being shot last month by rapper Tory Lanez, she's held the top spot on the Billboard charts twice this summer with two different tracks: "WAP" with Cardi B and "Savage (Remix)" featuring the one and only Beyoncé. Tonight, she's taking to the stage for her first performance of 2020 — and it's not just any show either. The five-time Platinum performer is teaming up with Live Nation for her very first, fully-produced virtual concert which you'll be able to watch live from home.Earlier this year, Megan Thee Stallion's planned 2020 tour was one of many to be cancelled due to social distancing measures.

Anker's Bolder LC40 rechargeable battery LED flashlight is down to $18.99 on Amazon if you clip the $4 off on-page coupon. That's a great low price and one of the lowest ones we've seen in a while. It's only $6 more than the LC30 version.The LC40 is a wonderfully compact little flashlight with a powerful light and a great long-lasting battery. The light is a 400-lumen Cree LED. It has a lifespan of 50,000 hours. That's such a long time you'll be using this flashlight for years before you notice any diminishing in the bulb. And it's so cheap you can just buy another one. You'll be able to light up any dark space with however much light you need, and the flashlight has five lighting modes (high, medium , low, strobe, and SOS).The long-lasting battery works for up to continuous 20 hours in medium-beam mode. Obviously if you bump it up to high you're going to lose a few hours off that, but that shouldn't be too much of a problem if you find what you're looking for that much faster. T...
