These smart glasses are similar Meta Ray-Bans, but support Google's Gemini As smart glasses continue to grow in popularity, we’re seeing more options and more features. Meta’s Ray-Ban smart glasses are...

Finally, Smart Glasses that don't require Meta or Snap. 9to5google.com/2026/03/09/r...

How are car dealerships still so bad at internet sales, in 2026?

Filled out a form on their own website, inquiring about a specific vehicle.

I've gotten *FIVE* responses, each from a DIFFERENT sales person. And each response was wildly different - one included a VIDEO?

it's kind of irritating how much Google just let Amazon "have" the low-end of the Android tablet market, without really putting up a fight.

Yeah, I just picked up an 8.9" Galaxy Tab A9 and it's perfect (IMO). I also don't do the "phablets" as Stefan used to call them - always the smallest phone I can get (GS25 at the moment).

The Android tablet space is pretty bare, tbh, unless you want to blow $600+

You know what I miss?

The Google Nexus 7 tablet.

Affordable, small (yet bigger than a phone), pure Android.

We need a Pixel Tablet 8 for $200, 8-9" display.

It's easy to find the flight to Asheville - look for a gathering of senior citizens and hippies wearing Teva sandals, lol.

Forgot how much it sucks to fly out of DFW.

Thus far, my flight has been at C11, B23, D22, and now B18

My youngest is demanding that we watch the Lord of the Rings movies this weekend.

I believe I have won.

It's weird to me that Google Docs has a built-in dictionary but not a thesaurus. Wouldn't the latter be significantly more useful in a writing tool?

This is the cruelest possible way to package anti-diarrheal medication.

We don't share enough good, solid, old-school memes over here, so I'm going to start.

I switched fully to Microsoft EDGE browser ~18 months ago, mainly for the RAM usage improvements, and it's been fine. However, seeing that Google has *finally* integrated Gemini into Chrome, I'm tempted to switch back. Should I?

I work in a pretty high-pressure marketing agency role, my oldest daughter plays club volleyball, and I'm worried if I'm aging faster than my retirement fund can grow, yet the single most stressful thing I experience in life is watch my 5th grade daughter's basketball games.

Having 3 chili-cheese dogs for lunch was delicious, but was a really poor investment in my future ability to focus during these three hour-long meetings this afternoon...

If we're going to have AI everywhere, can we please resurrect the cool projects from the early 2000s-2010s of AI on my phone?

"Looks like you're navigating home, I'll open the garage door once you're within 200ft"

Actually do some useful stuff for a change.

Haha, they updated it be "latest"

Motorola’s first smartwatch promises 13-day battery life and Polar-powered health tracking It’ll be available January 22nd.

Was surprised to see this headline from The Verge.

This is not Motorola's first smartwatch, lol.

What did you wish you'd accomplished in 2025, but didn't?

What are you doing today to have a better chance at accomplishing it in 2026?

I know we've talked about this before but TSA would be less frustrating if it was consistent.

Got stuck in LGA yesterday. Walked through the exact same machine wearing the exact same clothes <24hrs apart. Not a peep yesterday.

Guy this morning literally yelled at me for not taking my belt off.

LEGO minifig of Mrs. Claus

LEGO minifig of a blonde girl wearing a New York t-shirt and a pink beanie, holding a hairbrush

LEGO minifig of an old man - Retired Santa - wearing a sage green beanie, red holiday sweater, and blue pants. Holding an orange snowboard

As is my custom, I made three new friends at the LEGO store.

Mrs. Claus, Retired Santa, and Reese as a New Yorker.

Hot take: using "szn" instead of "season" is significantly more offensive than using "Xmas" for "Christmas"

New favorite family photo.

I think Matchbox Twenty tops my #Wrapped every single year lol.

Carols of the Bells

It is once again the time of year to share one of my greatest playlists ever created.

open.spotify.com/playlist/4bE...

Alright, let's have it then.

Tell me your favorite Christmas movie and if it's not Adam Sandler's Eight Crazy Nights, then please explain why you're nuts.

I was 42 years old before my parents *actually* got me something I had asked for.

42.

You lost me at "tiktok trend", unfortunately.

Someone PLEASE help me figure out how to tell Timehop that I am NOT the target audience for Always Flex.

@whatleydude.com another year, mate.

It started out not terrible and then took a hard left turn into WTF AM I WATCHING IS THIS THE SAME MOVIE?!
