The Surface Laptop is down to $835 for Prime Day—a killer discount on one of my favorite laptops.

The RAM, storage, and component crunch has come for new laptop prices. Plenty of models have gone up in price after being on the market for months, and so have those that’ve been on shelves for over a year. Plus, many new models are releasing at higher prices than the previous generation. So, it really […]

HP’s OmniBook Ultra 14 is one of the best alternatives to the MacBook Air you can buy right now, and it’s more affordable than many of its Windows competitors.

I’ve been reviewing laptops for over a decade, and this is my advice on how to find the right laptop for you.

The Dell XPS 13 is now available, starting at $599.

Microsoft's new Surface Pro and Surface Laptop are about 50 to 60 percent more expensive than the previous generation. Thanks, AI!

Microsoft is launching new Surface Laptops and a Surface Pro with Qualcomm Snapdragon X2 processors. These are direct follow-ups to the Surface Laptops and Surface Pro from 2024 that launched with Snapdragon X1 chips and jumpstarted Microsoft's Copilot Plus PC initiative with Windows on Arm. The new X2 Surfaces are available today. The Surface Pro […]

The Galaxy Book 6 Edge comes with 1TB of storage and 16GB of RAM, and it costs $2,100.

I turned off Siri on the Mac years ago and never looked back. Similarly, I found Apple Intelligence so fruitless I never engage with it. But the new Siri AI coming to macOS 27 Golden Gate has at least got me slightly rethinking things. I'm still early in testing Siri AI, as I've only had […]

Framework is pushing back shipments of its new Laptop 13 Pro to address issues with its haptic touchpad and display found in the run-up to mass production.

The Framework Laptop 13 Pro is delayed. The new 13-inch Framework flagship was set to launch in June, but shipments from the first batch are now expected in July - and there's still a chance some shipments could slip to early August. If you're not in the first batch, your Laptop 13 Pro shifts from […]

Laptops for college should be portable, offer long battery life, and remain reasonably affordable. Based on testing hundreds of laptops, these are my top picks.

You'll need to be running Apple silicon to use the latest operating system.

Polystyrene can be upcycled into carbon sponge material.

Lenovo's IdeaPad Slim 5x just might be the best laptop you can buy for $850. It's hard to find any major flaws, which is basically unheard of in a laptop at this price.

The 2026 XPS 14 is the best premium laptop we've seen from Dell in a while, with incredible build quality in a thin machine and good performance thanks to Intel's Core Ultra Series 3 "Panther Lake" chips. A bonus: Dell killed its lame "Premium Plus" naming scheme. XPS is so back! I can't believe how […]

Arm CPU cores, a powerful GPU and gobs of unified RAM? That sounds familiar!

The MacBook Neo is Apple's cheapest laptop, its most colorful, and its easiest to repair in years. That means owners can buy replacement parts in all four of its available colors and swap them in on their own. So that got us thinking: What if we bought a Neo just to see how funky we […]

Only 4,999 units of the HP Scuderia Ferrari AI PC will be available.

Cloudflare Turnstile in Playwright: Why Your Tests Stall and How to Solve It in 8 Lines If you're running Playwright or Selenium against any site behind Cloudflare, you've already met Turnstile. It's the new "managed challenge" widget Cloudflare started shipping in 2023, and it now appears in front of login flows, contact forms, signup pages, and increasingly the entire site root. Here's the part most teams miss: Turnstile doesn't always show a checkbox. A lot of the time it just sits invisible, runs its scoring loop, and either issues a token silently or stalls forever. Your test doesn't crash. It just times out at the next page.click("button[type=submit]") . The CI log says "element not interactable." Nobody knows why. I work on CaptchaAI. I'm going to show you exactly what's happening, then drop in 8 lines that fix it. The real scenario You have a Playwright suite that runs every PR. One day a test starts failing on the signup flow. You re-run it. It fails again. Locally on your laptop it passes. On CI it doesn't. What's actually happening: Cloudflare flagged your CI runner's IP block (GitHub Actions, GitLab runners, Hetzner, OVH, DO — all of them are on Cloudflare's "elevated risk" list). Turnstile decides to switch from invisible mode to "managed challenge" mode. Now there's a widget in the DOM that needs a real token before the form submit will accept. Your test never interacted with the widget because last week it didn't exist. Why retries don't help The instinct is to add a retry: 2 and move on. Don't. Cloudflare's scoring is per-IP-per-fingerprint, and each retry from the same runner makes the next challenge harder, not easier. After ~3 attempts you'll get full block pages instead of the widget. The right move is to solve the widget once, inject the token, and submit normally — exactly what a human user does, just faster. How Turnstile actually issues a token The widget renders an iframe pointing at challenges.cloudflare.com . Inside the iframe it runs a fi
