An important factor in the safe operation of a firearm, either a real one or an airsoft one, is being able to actually see what you're aiming at. It's never a good idea to fire blindly, as you never know what you might accidentally hit. This is why many modern firearms are equipped with mounting rails, on which you can attach, among other things, tactical flashlights. A light with a powerful, forward-facing beam is great for lighting up your target before you "light up" your target.

Part of what helps give a game series or franchise its distinctive identity is the genre of game that it predominantly sticks to. For example, if someone asked you to describe Call of Duty, you’d pretty immediately say “it’s a first-person shooter,” because every Call of Duty game sticks to that same genre. While genre is a big part of a franchise’s identity, though, that doesn’t mean a franchise’s genre is static.

It's great to have a generator handy when you're out on the road in an RV or performing heavy-duty work at a jobsite. Portable power sources mean you don't need to go hunting around for an outlet, and you can run appliances and tools even if you're in a spot without any electrical infrastructure. However, this is all assuming that the generator you have has enough power to support whatever you're doing.

Like just about every other retailer out there, Walmart dabbles extensively with in-house brands. Selling products from brands owned by Walmart itself helps the company expedite shipping and stocking, as well as cut down on costs. In fact, there are quite a few home, auto, and tech brands you might not realize are owned by Walmart.

If you've ever had the distinct pleasure of flying in a private jet, there's a very particular difference you might have noticed from a trip on your average commercial airliner. No, it's not the increased legroom or bathrooms that don't smell funny; it's the distinct lack of noise coming in from outside the cabin.

While Anker makes some of the best power banks and chargers for a camping trip, there's one particular model you definitely don't want to bring on the road with you. According to a new product recall issued by the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission, certain models of the Anker PowerCore 10000 power bank are at substantial risk of having their lithium-ion battery packs expand and overheat. In the worst-case scenario, these overheated battery packs can spark fires or even explode.

For a little over a decade now, video game remasters have found a place of prevalence alongside regular new releases. Some of these remasters are half-baked cash-grabs trying to keep what is effectively still a new game in the public eye a little longer. Many others, though, are valiant efforts to bring back old and forgotten games to the public eye, often with touched-up graphics and some gameplay tweaks to better meet modern standards.

Shopping for tools and miscellaneous convenient implements isn't just about buying the biggest, most expensive gear you can get your hands on.

Games are primarily intended to be fun. That’s the implication behind the word “game,” after all. However, fun is far from the only thing games are capable of being. Like any good piece of media, games can inspire a multitude of emotions in us, both positive and negative, as well as tackle heavy, complex subject matters. Some of my most cherished gaming memories are those times when I’ve been subjected to such intense emotional stimuli, I’m left as a silent husk for a good 30 minutes afterwards.

Typically, a car has one battery pack, stored under the hood alongside the engine and other vital components. It's the battery's job to provide for all of your vehicle's electrical needs, including starting the engine and powering various gadgets and accessories such as the car's lights, stereo, and more. That single battery pack has enough juice stored up to serve all of these vital needs.
