Shopping for tents you’ll quickly find yourself immersed in a world of unfamiliar terms, trying to decipher what it means that a DFC pyramid has a welded bathtub floor. Here’s our guide to the terms you need to understand.Single/Double Walled: A double walled tent is the most common, consisting of an inner tent (wall 1) and a rainfly (wall 2) between you and the elements. A single walled tent is, um, a single wall. The advantage of a single-walled tent is that it’s lighter.

The long-awaited Nintendo Switch 2 finally dropped this week, and while it makes a number of big improvements on its predecessor—things like a better screen, beefier internal specs, and more accessible controls—there is one thing it’s worse at. According to the repairability advocates and gleeful disassemblers at iFixit, it’s even harder to fix than the original Switch.Perhaps most worrying for new owners is that, despite a new “from the ground up” redesign for the Switch’s Joy-Con controllers, the root cause of stick drift—something that many owners of the original have long complained of—doesn’t seem to have been truly addressed in…

It’s the early hours of Monday, May 26. An airstrike that Israel says is aimed at a militant control center has just hit a former school where dozens of families were sheltering. Eighteen children were killed in the attack, according to the local emergency services. And this scene — — of a girl trying to escape the flames is about to become a new symbol of the war’s toll on Gaza’s youngest. We interviewed witnesses and obtained unpublished video of the aftermath of the attack. And we found the girl. Her name is Hanin al-Wadie. The 5-year-old survived but lost…

It can hit a peak brightness of over 1,000 nits in HDR, bringing scenes in games to life in vivid detail.Or if you’re on the other side of the budget spectrum and just need…

Wait though … Perplexity—like other AI search engines—has been criticized for hallucinating and getting things wrong.We welcome this criticism, because it’s the best way for us to continually improve. In reality, errors account for a small fraction of results, and our answers are far more accurate than 10 blue links polluted by decades of SEO-optimized content. [In response to a follow-up request, Perplexity did not provide further details on error rates, but Jesse Dwyer, a spokesman, said that reliability is improving constantly]. But the fact is, accuracy and trust will only become more important as AI integrates into more of…

Home Depot goes hard. The company pretty much invented the hardware superstore when it began in 1978, just by being so big. They inflated the neighborhood tool shop into a whole city of lumber, hammers, caulk, power saws, and big rolls of wire. I would know I’m in a Home Depot blindfolded, because of a distinct quality to the air—crisp and particulate, smelling like wood dust and paint and the oiled metal of power tools. The Home Depot smell is buried deep in my childhood, filed somewhere between “building a deck” and “first day of spring.” Anyway, the Home Depot…
