| The Razer Blade 15 Advanced Is the Definition of a Premium Gaming Laptop Posted: 29 Apr 2021 05:00 AM PDT  Gamers aren't a monolith, and neither are the systems they game on.

But when it comes to premium gaming notebooks, the Razer Blade 15 Advanced… |
| Posted: 29 Apr 2021 04:00 AM PDT  How do you define revenge porn? It might seem easy enough when it's an angry man posting a naked photo of his ex-girlfriend to 4Chan. But what happens when it's an image of a lewd act in the workplace that touches off a national conversation about gender bias, power imbalances, and sexual assault? |

| A Cloud-Based Google Chrome Sounds Neat, but Consider Upgrading Your Hardware Instead Posted: 28 Apr 2021 05:10 PM PDT  As I sit at my desk typing this blog, I have 15 Chrome tabs eating up 790MB of memory. I also have 17 Microsoft Edge tabs open, which take up 535MB of memory. Aside from those two extra tabs on Edge, I have the same webpages open, yet Chrome is hogging more memory. Complaints about the resource-hogging Google Chrome… |
| Shadow and Bone Fans, What on Earth Do You See in This Douchebag? Posted: 28 Apr 2021 05:00 PM PDT  Leigh Bardugo's Grishaverse series of novels made a big splash in the YA realm and beyond, so it's no surprise Netflix chose to adapt Shadow and Bone into a series.
