Four marquee showdowns will be headlining the College Football Playoff quarterfinals staged at four of the sport’s most iconic bowl games with semifinal spots on the line. Four teams that earned first-round byes will make their CFP debuts, each hoping to reverse a trend that emerged last season. All four teams that received byes in the inaugural 12-team playoff lost in the quarterfinals, fueling the notion that rest may be overrated in college football’s still-new postseason format. That dynamic could shift this year after a tweak to the seeding formula awarded byes to the four highest-ranked teams rather than the…

I’m generally not one to make New Year’s resolutions because I know I probably won’t keep them. Instead, I like to exceed my own expectations rather than failing to meet impossible standards.That said, I like to set fashion-oriented goals for myself. Sometimes it’s related to consumption, sometimes it’s about honing in on personal style. So I polled my colleagues on their 2026 goals, too. They span the practical (doing away with the pile of clothes in your bedroom, laying out their clothes the night before) to the curatorial (culling their closets and shopping with intention). Read them below.I would like…

Once you’ve created appointment types, set calendar availability, the last step is to customize the design. (Acuity also makes it easy with step-by-step instructions with an easy-to-navigate design that tells you what percentage of the scheduling page is complete.) The design comes prefilled, but you can customize the text to say anything you want, with different options for font and color palette. You can go with one of the dozens of premade color presets, or make your own palette from a specific color or image. I thought the premade palettes were well-designed with tons of options, so I decided to…

For teams looking to escape relegation, it’s an opportunity to bring in reinforcements to finish the job.But it’s not just about the movement of players between clubs. Now is the time for clubs to worry about stars approaching the end of their contracts — whether hitting free agency…

We’ve tested and used a lot of power stations over the years. Big ones. Heavy ones. Ones with impressive specs that look great on paper.And what we’ve learned is simple. The best power station isn’t the most powerful one. It’s the one you actually reach for.That’s exactly why we’re using the Bluetti Elite 30 V2 right now. Not because it does everything. It doesn’t. But because it’s easy. It’s portable. It’s simple enough that it becomes part of daily life instead of something you save for special situations.We see the same thing with cameras. We own a DSLR and know…

Roughly 1,000 light-years away from Earth, a gigantic disk of gas and dust is swirling around a young star and giving rise to new planets. Not only is it the largest planet-forming disk astronomers have ever found, its behavior is different than any seen before. The disk spans nearly 400 billion miles (640 billion kilometers)—that’s about 40 times wider than our entire solar system. While it was first identified in 2016, astronomers have now used NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope to capture the first image of this planetary nursery in visible light. The new images revealed an unusually chaotic environment, with…

Major wireless carriers: A necessary evil if you travel a lot, have a family, or are just interested in coverage that’s reliably consistent and widespread. AT&T is the third-largest provider in the US (first for 5G), with the largest coverage map. I’ve had various AT&T plans for more than a decade, first for just myself and now for my whole family, even though I only get one cell bar at my house and have to stand in one 5-square-foot patch of yard to make a phone call. And have lost entire days of my life to fighting unexpected random charges…
