| Even in this digital age of music, sometimes the best way to listen to the classics is to go back to the way things were. Vinyl records continue to be popular long after the CD came and went, and there’s a decent chance that if you’re reading this, you still have a record player in the home. And if you do, and you found yourself going back to vinyl, Suzanne wants you to know something—you need to clean your records. She’ll walk you through how to do it, how often, and what tools you need. Just find the top story. Other Highlights: - Honor is teasing a folding phone that looks like it could be better than the Galaxy Z Fold 3. Neat.
- Tesla raised the price for “full self-driving” mode.. again. Woof, that’s a lot of money to pay for something that isn’t actually full self-driving.
- With a bit of help from a 3D printer, you can game on the PS5 with one hand.
- …and more!
