I was restlessly working from home, yearning to get outside, which conveniently, was the only place we were advised to go. Coincidentally, this was also when the #VanLife trend hit its peak, and I was inspired to jump on the bandwagon.However, after investigating the nomadic lifestyle, I realized that converting an old van into a small, makeshift RV wasn’t exactly practical or affordable. Like most people, I did not have unlimited time to wander…
If there’s anything Trump loves, it’s slapping his face and name on things: vodka, steaks, passports, and even monuments to other people. Now he wants to emblazon his likeness on paper currency. According to The Washington Post, Trump appointees are pushing the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, the agency tasked with printing the nation’s money, to prepare a banknote with the president’s face on it.

Israel-based Wix joins a growing list of companies announcing layoffs citing “the fast evolution” of AI. (That list includes Meta, Cisco, Groupon, and Intuit, in just the last few weeks.) It also said a weak dollar, creating a poor exchange rate with the Israeli shekel, was to blame. Wix, a website builder, said Thursday that it’s laying off roughly 20% of its workforce, in a post from CEO Avishai Abrahami on X and LinkedIn. (That’s about 1,000 people, according to CNBC, which reported that Wix had 5,277 employees as of May.) “We have witnessed the most significant shift in how…
A glowing LED face mask promises clinical-grade skin rejuvenation at home. Yet, the evidence behind the technology is more nuanced than the marketing suggests.gettyLast November, the UK’s Advertising Standards Authority banned ads from for at home light emitting diode (LED) face masks marketed to consumers. This included the brands Beautaholics, Luyors Retail, Project E Beauty and Silk’n. The reason: their use of unauthorized medical claims in their advertising.

Under UK law such claims are reserved for licensed medical devices.At-home LED face masks…
