Today’s major IPAs are predominantly used to relieve the burden of inconvenience. Don’t have the time to write a text to your friend? Ask Siri to do it (just remember to be nice to her). Want to switch on the lights without getting off the couch? Alexa might be able to help you with that. Microsoft’s Cortana goes even further by managing your work files on your PC to relieve you of some of your woes at the workplace....

That was until last November when I finally bought into the marketing of Secretlab’s award-winning gaming chairs. See, I don’t consider myself a hardcore gamer – I dabble between Valorant and NBA 2K22 – but I couldn’t help but notice how prevalent Secretlab’s gaming chairs were in major eSports broadcasts. So when the company announced the TITAN Evo 2022 Series, which merged the best of its TITAN and OMEGA line of chairs, I bit....

On the Galaxy S10 though, Samsung will be solely relying on the in-display fingerprint scanner for authentication purposes....

Add the infinite number of online shops and their coupons to that, plus sales they offer, and it’s truly too much to manage....
