@Apple’s Hearing Aid feature has made AirPods Pro better overall than my $10k hearing aids. Adaptive mode is awesome at combining hearing protection with enhancement.

@Alienware Fast and quiet.

@ASUS_ROG Why did you use heat pipes in your Zephyrus G16 4070 model?! I don't need a 4080, but I don't want a loud, cut-rate cooling system either. Super annoying, and likely to make me choose another brand.

@Dave2D Asus is not using the vapor chamber for any Zephyrus G16 with the 4070. Thoughts?

@HarryRabinowitz Harry, I read your Bose review twice, looking for the part where you evaluate these earbuds for their sound quality. You know… music. What gives?

@torchystacos crazy experience tonight; iced tea was delivered in a soggy paper bag by an @UberEats bike, along with an ice cold burrito (I mean, it's winter, in Denver, and dude's carrying a bag of iced tea and a burrito in one hand -- of course it got cold). Then the bag tore.

@laradownes @ClassicalKDFC @ClassicalKUSC @LennyBernstein I'm so sorry Lara. Timely topic as I tuned in for the first time tonight (@SofitelLA) remembering the life of a loved one after receiving their very bad news. Thank you for the music.

Tonight 8pm PT on @ClassicalKDFC & @ClassicalKUSC "Evening Music with Lara Downes", a tribute to my beautiful mother Ruth Downes, who passed away last week. Her favorite music, from Bach to @LennyBernstein & memories of her extraordinary life & boundless heart. Please join me 🦋

@garywhitta KarlTheFog has a cousin??

Pretty clever for Texas utilities to convince the public to give them more money, rather than fix the disincentives that make it much more profitable to let Texans lose power to begin with.

@garywhitta Well, if you want real bagels it's the only place to go (sorry New York -- yours are good too)

Twitter -> X was too soon. Twi/X That’s better. This place is Twi/x, I’m a twixie. and this is a twit. Err…

1.8 second pit stop -- wow. Amazing video shows increasing detail with each take, leading you from "wait, did they just skip it all?" to "OMG". @ngpedro

@hasty_mcnasty @itsmepandy82 @NBCSGiants "This is what happens when you piece together a bunch of guys people don’t want." -- it can happen this way, but it doesn't always; I mean, look at the even-year-teams' unexpected heroes.

@itsmepandy82 @NBCSGiants I would say we maybe have 4 true starters on this team and probably 3 of those would be back of the lineup guys on any other team. This is what happens when you piece together a bunch of guys people don’t want.

@KNBR This video demands a bad lip sync translation.

Daniel Jones was FREAKED looking at the Niners defense 😳

If you read @WSJ's modem story, be sure to read @gruber's takedown. I am still surprised at how invariably biased WSJ's journalism has become in the last few years, on whatever topic they are writing about. It's weird.

@garywhitta I just set up the new Samsung 34" OLED. 49" was a bit much :P looks nice, Gary! Do you use those buttons? #QT3 #ScaryWhitta @lexyholloway (aka Fire)

The @dbrand skin for my Pixel Fold cured its love handles! #pixelfold #dbrand #robotcity

Trying out my new @ouraring! Set it up via the app yesterday and was looking forward to seeing the sleep results from camping last night. Today the Oura app says "j/k, I didn't record anything last night... update firmware plz". Not a great first experience, folks.

I just noticed that @engadget does not let you participate in comments unless you consent to them selling your personal data. I've been a reader for a very long time, but not anymore. Sayonara, @engadget. It's been great, and I'll miss you.
