    It's almost Mother's Day and if the annual maternal day of celebration crept up on you, have no fear—in addition to the flowers and candy that you might have picked up last minute, there's still time to go bigger with some sweet savings on a variety of earbuds and headphones. And yes, some of them will even arrive by tomorrow (Mother's Day) if you're an Amazon Prime member.

    We have to hand it to Apple, moving on from Intel's x86 silicon to its own Arm-based Apple Silicon hardware was a bold and risky move, and it's paying off. One of our first run-ins with Apple's home brewed hardware was the 2020 Mac Mini with an M1 chip inside. Now several years later, Apple's chips are even more powerful and efficient, and several modern Mac Mini systems are on sale. One in particular is the 2024 Mac Mini with an M4 chip inside—it's down to $506.28 at Amazon (15% off).

    It was around this time last year when I reviewed Razer's Iskur V2 gaming chair, which I'm still using as my daily rump-rester.

    Folks, for those who care (like myself), the 18-inch laptop form factor is alive and well. Just ask Lenovo, which is rolling out a beast of a system in its new Legion 9i (18", 10). Designed for both gamers and game developers (as well as power users in general), the upgraded Legion 9i can optionally be packed to the gills with flagship hardware, but let's talk about the display before going any further.

Forget the ‘Hall of Fame’ difficulty setting in @NBA2K, if you want a real challenge, try the interactive cat mode. Not only are the controls trickier, but every turnover and bad shot is accompanied by a disapproving glare. Might be an @Xbox exclusive, not sure. https://t.co/6DThI0OF92
