~$30 would be a great price for a 128GB microSD card. $24 though? That’s totally unprecedented. If you need more storage space for your action cam, your new Fire tablet, or a Nintendo Switch, this could be the best deal of Prime Day.

Niagara Falls is one of the world’s top tourist attractions. The name applies to an American city, a Canadian city, two American waterfalls and one waterfall that straddles the international border. Millions of people power their homes from those waterfalls. People ride boats under them, ride barrels over them, and…Read more...

Netflix has been mysteriously quiet about the new docuseries Dark Tourist from New Zealand journalist and filmmaker David Farrier (July 20). Farrier made his name in the U.S. for exploring disturbing corners of the internet—see his haunting 2016 documentary Tickled and this creepy exploration of kids being exploited…Read more...

One of my favorite parts of traveling is having the opportunity to learn about new areas. I’m not really a guidebook person, so I typically rely on tidbits of info from walking tours, plaques on the side of the street, and conversations with people I meet to string together info about an area. This week I came across…Read more...

I love my Note 8. It’s fast, has a beautiful display, and it takes better pictures than any smartphone I’ve ever had. I hate the Bixby button.

If you don’t have any wine knowledge, figuring out what wine to serve with dinner can sometimes be a bit of a challenge. While most of us have a decent idea of what to serve with a steak, when it comes to other dishes like pizza or apple pie our current knowledge might fall a little short.

We all know that fruits and veggies that are currently in season are going to taste better and be more affordable than those that aren’t but remember what’s in season when can often be a bit of a challenge.

Despite being on the Do Not Call list, I’ve somehow managed to make it onto some sort of robocall list where a woman named “Ann” is trying to sell me health insurance. Ann calls me at least a dozen times a day from numbers around the country (what a traveler!) to let me know about all the deals she has available.…Read more...

Mashable, a tech site, says you should buy a kiddie pool. Not for your kids, for yourself. As they point out, if you have a roof or backyard, fifteen bucks, and a garden hose or a big bucket, then baby, you’ve got a pool going. (They claim you can also put a kiddie pool on your fire escape. I cannot endorse that…Read more...

Happy weekend, and welcome back to 3-Ingredient Happy Hour, the weekly drink column featuring super simple yet delicious libations. This week we’re making a pink drink inspired by the almost painfully classic Champagne cocktail.Read more...

July is National Ice Cream Month, and Sunday is National Ice Cream Day, so it’s time for discounts. Refinery29 and U.S. News have lists of chains offering free and discounted ice cream. Some deals are just for Sunday, some run all next week, and some are around all month.

If you ever wash your own car, you’ve probably bought a waffle weave towel to dry it. This three dimensional texture increases the surface area of the fabric, meaning it can absorb more water while allowing it to evaporate and dry more quickly.

I don’t know about you, but I’m still on the fence about Apple’s Touch Bar. The most use I get out of it is accidentally tapping the virtual “back” button in my browser when trying to press a number key. That, and I mainly use the Touch Bar to adjust my MacBook’s brightness and volume. (Perhaps I need to configure…Read more...

Everything is stupid, and so are we. Welcome to Jezebel’s Stupidest Summer Ever, a season-long celebration of our worst, most idiotic thoughts and opinions.

When we last rounded up our staff’s Weekly Upgrades, our editors were ramping up our workout routines, recovering from injuries, using vacation time (somewhat) productively, and tweaking our technique in the kitchen.Read more...

If you’ve bought drugs from illegal online pharmacies, you may have plenty of reasons to worry—but a warning letter from the FDA shouldn’t be one of them. The FDA sends nasty letters to illegal pharmacies, not typically to customers. Which means if you receive a letter from the “FDA,” someone’s trying to scam you.

Belkin’s 12-outlet surge protector is one of our readers’ favorites (and the one I use behind my TV), and Prime members can get it for $14 today, or 20% off. Just note that you won’t see the final price until you get to checkout. Surge protectors actually wear out over time, so if you haven’t replaced yours in awhile,…Read more...

Each year, Apple drops a “Back to School” promo that lets “eligible” customers save money on hardware and score a free something—like a pair of Beats headphones—when they make a big purchase. Here’s the thing, though: everyone can actually benefit from the promo, students and non-students alike.Read more...

As if there weren’t enough sexually transmitted diseases to worry about, Mycoplasma genitalium is now being more closely scrutinized by public officials. A British sexual health organization has released new guidelines for stopping it from becoming the next superbug, and the least we can do is be aware that it exists.

You probably shouldn’t run an iOS public beta on your primary device. But maybe you took the plunge anyway—anything to get in on that sweet Memoji action—and now you regret it. Maybe an app you use every day isn’t compatible with iOS 12 yet, and you want to go back.

If you are a lover of the crunchy and the salty, you have probably, at one point or another, found yourself with various, mostly consumed bags and boxes of chips, crackers, and other snack products. Rather than eat them individually, sad handful by sad handful, you should combine them all to make a snack mix.Read more...

Being online has never been more embarrassing. People are renting 10 minutes of time on private jets for the ‘gram. The most innocuous and best-meaning of posts can spark outrage. You can’t talk to someone on a plane without it becoming a viral story that leads to harassment. The president tweets.Read more...

Yesterday, Build-A-Bear put on a Pay Your Age event, promising customers they could pay their age for just about any stuffed animal in the store. That meant if your kid is three, she could have snagged a furry friend for three bucks. What could go wrong, right? It’s only every child’s dream to bring home their very…Read more...

MoviePass competitor Sinemia made it a bit more attractive to sign up for its service this week: it’s now offering $25 in free Restaurant.com gift certificates each month with every subscription.

We see a lot of deals around the web over on Kinja Deals, but these were our ten favorites today.

There’s an episode of Everybody Loves Raymond where Ray remembers an effective parenting method he learned from his dad: AIS. Ass In Seat. He’d say, “We’re leaving. 9 o’clock, AIS!” and whoever’s ass was not in their seat at the designated time would be left behind. The kicker? Ray tries it on Debra, his wife. Moral:…Read more...

The sun’s ultraviolet radiation is dangerous to our skin cells because it damages our DNA. That’s why sun exposure can cause cancer, and why sunscreen is so important (even apart from its power to prevent sunburns). There are sunscreens that claim they can help your skin repair that damage—and, it turns out, they…Read more...

macOS Mojave is in public beta now, and it has a lot of cool features that might not totally change the way you use your Mac, but will speed up parts of your workflow, help keep your files organized, and make you smile with customizable touches.

Hot coffee is not something I can even look at during the summer; it’s all iced coffee, sometimes even without cream because dairy gets more and more oppressive as the temperature climbs. If however, you wish to add a little pep to your icy morning drink while keeping it refreshing, you should grab a strip of lemon…Read more...

You know you need to pay your credit card bill on time, and that you should aim not to keep balance. But do you know what everything on your credit card statement actually means?

Apple dropped some pretty big news today: It’s no longer selling the 2015 MacBook Pro, which means you can’t purchase a MacBook Pro—from Apple—whose keyboard doesn’t suck isn’t questionable.Read more...

If you’ve used birth control pills for any length of time, you may have been told to take it at the exact same time every day to ensure effectiveness. Maintaining a consistent pill schedule at home is as easy as setting an alarm on your phone—but what happens when you travel across several time zones?Read more...

Freshman year of college, my friend started a book club. We picked Ulysses. We met up once, and I’ve still never read Ulysses. Book clubs are hard! They’re so hard that blogs list things to talk about when no one in the book club read the book. (“Read reviews of the book out loud, and talk about those.”) If your book…Read more...

Uber has announced a new update that will allow a user to add Venmo as a payment method when using Uber and Uber Eats. The feature will reportedly available in the upcoming weeks, though an official launch date hasn’t been given.Read more...

Open relationship, ethical non-monogamy, polyamory, monogamish: there are so many words for telling someone that when it comes right down to it, you’re dating someone else. Here’s how to do so in a way that is respectful of their time and energy.

This week, a woman named Sylvia Acosta experienced what she described as a “Handmaid’s Tale moment” when passing through customs with her 15-year-old daughter at Dallas–Fort Worth International Airport. Because she and her child don’t share the same surname, Acosta claims she was detained and questioned by a customs…Read more...

Chrome, Firefox: One of the more annoying aspects of watching Netflix on your laptop or desktop computer is the trailers the service likes to automatically play on your behalf. I have nothing against interesting trailers for movies or TV shows I might care about. And everyone suffers through trailers they’re not…Read more...

Mistakes happen. Missing (or skipping) a bill payment or two isn’t the end of the world, but it could have serious consequences—including fees, higher interest rates, a dark mark on your credit score, garnished wages or a visit from a debt collector—if you’re not quick to fix it.

You’re typing an email, you paste in some text from a Word doc, and suddenly half your email is in the same font as the doc. Or you paste a headline into a Google doc, and it shows up in giant 48pt text. This annoying paste behavior is the default in most Windows, MacOS, and web apps. In outgoing docs and emails, it…Read more...

In a perfect world, we’d all have a feature-packed, free PDF editor that can do everything you might need whenever you’re given an important document to fiddle with.Read more...

I was prescribed Cipro once. When I got the bottle of pills home, I took a minute to read the leaflet that the pharmacy stuffs in the bag—mostly just to be a diligent nerd, not because I expected any shocking news. But when I got to the part that said one side effect is tendon rupture(!!!), I put the leaflet down and…Read more...

The vast majority of Qi wireless chargers on the market will only charge iPhones at 5W speeds, even if they’re capable of supplying 10W to Android devices. A select few though use a very specific frequency that charges iPhones at a maximum 7.5W, and three of them are on sale right now for the best prices ever.

Vaping is almost certainly less harmful to your health than smoking cigarettes, since it doesn’t contain bits of burned-up tobacco leaf (the cancer-causing “tar” in cigarettes). But if that fact leads smokers to start vaping, but then they don’t quit smoking, what good was the vaping?
