Pricing can range widely, as it includes affordable options like the ROG Strix G16 with the RTX 5050, which starts at just $1,300.TUF Gaming is the company’s entry-level gaming laptop subbrand. These TUF gaming laptops used to be some of the most affordable gaming laptops you could buy, but they’ve gone up in price over the past few years. There aren’t any Asus gaming laptops under $1,000 that feature the latest RTX 50-series GPUs, though you can find plenty of older models…
For years, Dan Harrison’s home in the western hills of Los Angeles would lose power when it was hot, when it rained or when it was very cold — sometimes the outages would stretch longer than 10 hours.So, he took matters into his own hands.Over the last six years, he has bought rooftop solar panels and batteries. Now, his house often helps keep the lights on across his neighborhood, near the University of California, Los Angeles. Outside Mr. Harrison’s home. Mark Abramson for The New York Times U.S. electric grids are increasingly under strain and utility companies are spending tens…
The Protein Plus options are pretty broad, comprising about half of Factor’s menu items overall. The meals remain mostly stolidly middle American: garlic herb chicken, barbecue wings, a red pepper frittata for breakfast. Jamaican jerk salmon and a Thai yellow curry chicken were among the most peripatetic options I tried, but even these feel domesticated, accessibly tame. (I did in fact like the jerk salmon a lot more than I expected to.)Most dishes, though, are classic square meals: a meat, a starch, a veggie that’s probably green. It’s almost wholesome, Midwestern mom food. Heck, Factor—founded and based in Illinois—even has…
The very name of debt mutual funds creates a sense of comfort, especially when compared to the volatility of equities. By pooling investments into relatively safer instruments, debt mutual funds are often expected to provide steady returns while protecting capital. But this could be a surprise to you. These funds can, and sometimes do, deliver negative returns; they are not immune to risks. That tiny red mark you see on returns can cause quite a stir in your minds. Getting negative returns from debt mutual funds is usually rare and short-lived, but this probability is something you shouldn’t ignore. Being…

The same mildly flat indent on the stem of each bud indicates the location of the touch/squeeze controls, and there are black spots where heart rate sensors, wear detection sensors, and microphone ports hide. As with previous models, silvery tips bless the end of each elephant trunk, where a beamforming mic aims at your lips for maximum fidelity. These are all familiar, refined design cues from previous AirPods, and they are better executed than ever, even with such slight changes.Well-SupportedReview: Apple AirPods Pro 3I’ve been very impressed with Apple’s software support when it comes to AirPods Pro; last year it…
When you look at equity mutual funds, the first thing that comes to your mind is growth, a way to build wealth in the long run. But then the real question tags along: where should you put your money? Large-caps feel safe with their steady compounding, mid-caps hold the promise of growth, and then there are small-caps, which look tempting with their high-risk but high-reward appeal. Multi-cap funds, one type of equity mutual funds, resolve this issue, by giving you a bit of everything in just one single scheme. In September 2020, Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), the…
Jimmy Kimmel returned to ABC this week. Sort of. About a quarter of ABC’s usual audience couldn’t see the talk show host this week after two major owners of ABC affiliates, Sinclair and Nexstar, refused to carry the show. Those right-leaning companies apparently felt that Kimmel’s joke—which included some disputed facts—was so unpardonable that they couldn’t expose their viewers to the comedian. They were also the first organizations to pull the plug on Kimmel, after Federal Communications Commission chair Brendan Carr seemed to threaten action. That means that even the stations that did carry the show—as well as Disney, which…
Bearing in mind this is the Chinese model (there’s no word on a global edition yet), I was unable to test all of the functionality, but I have a good idea what will work here and what doesn’t. I love the time and notifications, because I don’t have to pick up my phone as much when it’s face down on the desk and I’m working.The customizable themes and pets are fun. It’s an opportunity to add a little more personality to your phone. While the real-time updates work only with select Chinese apps right now, the utility is clear, and…
