How to Join the Beta for the USPS ‘Informed Delivery’ App

5 days ago | lifehacker.com | Jake Peterson

I'm a big fan of the USPS' "Informed Delivery" option. When you enroll, the USPS will send you daily emails that show all mail and packages you're set to receive that day. (The mail scans arrive in grayscale, address-side only.) If you like to be surprised every time you open your mailbox, it's not the service for you. But for the rest of us, it's a helpful way to keep an eye on the day's incoming mail. Now, the USPS is expanding the feature, working on a dedicated Informed Delivery app.
Review: The DJI Flip Is a Great Starter Drone That Feels Pro-Level

5 days ago | lifehacker.com | Mark Knapp

A great beginner-to-advanced flierThe DJI Flip is one of the latest quadcopter drones from DJI, and sits at the lower end of the price spectrum with a starting price of $439 for a kit that includes the drone itself, a remote controller, and a few other essentials. Extras like more batteries ($99 apiece) or the video controller ($200 extra) can raise the price quickly, but these may be worthwhile for frequent flyers.
Why You Shouldn't Worry About Your 'Gut Health'

5 days ago | lifehacker.com | Beth Skwarecki

Your digestive system is a hugely important part of your body, and keeping it healthly is hugely important. Without good gut health, you might be in pain, or suffer embarrassing symptoms, or worse. But it does not follow that you need to load up on foods or products that promise to improve your gut health. Gut health, it turns out, is not a well-defined concept. That means it’s not always possible to tell whether it’s improving or whether you even have a problem with it in the first place.
The Real History of Mother's Day Is Surprisingly Dark

5 days ago | lifehacker.com | Stephen Johnson

Mother’s Day is supposed to be wholesome and sort of boring: some flowers, a Hallmark card, maybe doing some chores around the house for once. But the American version of Mother's Day wasn’t born in a garden. It was forged in the smoke and death of the Civil War, shaped by radical women, and became a battleground between profit and principle—a holiday so contentious its own creator devoted her life trying to destroy it. Mother's Day's history is dramatic as hell.
How to Choose a High-Yield Savings Account

5 days ago | lifehacker.com | Meredith Dietz

There are plenty of places worth investing your money for long-term growth. But what about short-term savings? Shouldn’t you be able to earn a little something extra on that, too? A high-yield savings account functions like a traditional savings account but offers significantly higher interest rates. More specifically, the average interest rate on savings accounts is currently 0.41% per the FDIC.
Google Messages Will Soon Let You Delete Messages for Everyone

5 days ago | lifehacker.com | Jake Peterson

Not that long ago, sending a message was final. It didn't matter if you had an embarrassing typo, or you sent a message to the wrong person: Once you tapped that "send" button, you were locked in, and whoever that message was sent to would have it as long as they wanted. These days, however, we have the technology to save ourselves from such embarrassment.
How to Quit 'Revenge Spending'

Now more than ever, it's time to curb your online shopping habit. The Trump administration's tariffs will hit American families hard, with estimates ranging from nearly $4,000 to almost $8,000 per household. With a general attitude of "recession indicators" all around us, one thing is clear: Times are tight.
Review: The Ikarao Break X2 Karaoke Machine Is Good for a Lot More Than Bad Singing

5 days ago | lifehacker.com | Stephen Johnson

Design and build qualityThe Ikarao Break X2 is a party in a box: It's a portable all-in-one karaoke machine with a 10-inch Android touchscreen display, two wireless microphones that charge in the unit itself, and a speaker that outputs up to 560 watts. It looks slick, with a matte black finish and built-in disco lights that pulse in time to the sound, and it's easy to carry around thanks to a deep handle and shoulder strap. Build-wise, the Break X2 is solid.
