Dell (Core Ultra 5) Microsoft (Snapdragon X Plus) The Surface Laptop is the MacBook of the Windows world, and the seventh edition has a brilliant display and great battery life. It's normally priced at $1,000, but you can save 20 percent on Black Friday. Best Buy (X Plus) Weighing only 2.16 pounds, it's one of the lightest laptops you can buy, without making any major sacrifices to achieve that weight. This incredibly compact, powerful little laptop works just as well for studying, content creation, and work as it does for gaming. Chromebooks under $300 tend to compromise in the display and touchpad. Not the Acer Chromebook Plus 516, and this is a fantastic deal on it. The…...

1+ hour, 32+ min ago (249+ words) WIRED readers are weirdly obsessed with this backpacking water filter. It's cheap, and it's yours. I also took the Grayl GeoPress ($80, $20 off) on a trip to the Philippines because it's fast and filters into its own water bottle to pour into cups for doing things like brushing your teeth. However, for whatever reason, the LifeStraw personal water filter has an absolute chokehold on WIRED readers. This weekend, it's again $10 off. The LifeStraw Personal Water Filter Is $10 Today This isn't the best water filter, and it isn't even the best LifeStraw. In my opinion, that would be the light, convenient squeeze bag, the LifeStraw Peak Series ($32), which you can use to scoop up water so you're not, like, actually putting your face down into a puddle. I also like the LifeStraw Go Series ($34, $16 off). I use the Grayl now, but for…...

I'm also not going to say it can't happen, either." For millennia, humanity has flourished along the shore, unaware that we were living in a geological fluke'an unusual spell of low seas. The oceans will return, but how soon? What does the science say about how ice sheets retreat, and therefore, about the future of our ports, our homes, and the billions who live near the coast? In 1978, John Mercer, an eccentric glaciologist at Ohio State University who allegedly conducted fieldwork nude, was among the first to predict that global warming threatened the West…...
