Memory wars: Microsoft announces big price increases for Surface laptops
We have bad news for Windows laptop shoppers.Microsoft has become the latest company to raise prices because of the global memory shortage, announcing wide-ranging price increases for Microsoft Surface laptops.As reported by Windows Central, Microsoft has increased prices up to $500, specifically citing "recent increases in memory and component costs" in a statement to the site. The new prices are live now at the online Microsoft Store, and retailers will likely update prices soon, too. Every laptop in the Surface lineup has increased in price by at least $100 compared to its 2025 pricetag, and some of these laptops have gone up by as much as $500 since 2024. For example, the 13-inch Surface Pro was $999 in 2024. A year later, it started at $1,199, with some better specs. Now, in 2026, the same device is $1,499. In just two years, that one laptop has seen a $500 price hike, and it's not alone. Every laptop in the Surface lineup now starts for over $1,000, which wasn't true two years ago. As Windows Central pointed out, it only gets worse the more bells and whistles you attach to each laptop, as the highest-end Surface Laptop 15 is now $3,649.

These Surface laptops are the latest in a long and growing list of tech products experiencing price increases due to the global memory shortage. The hardware demands of AI data centers have led to shortages and higher prices for RAM memory components. Combined with the tariff-related price increases seen in 2025, the end result is another year of higher prices for shoppers.In just the last couple of months, we've seen Sony suspend SD card sales and raise the price of the PS5 game console, and it's become increasingly difficult to buy a Steam Deck at any price due to stock shortages. One has to wonder how much longer the Nintendo Switch 2 will be available for $450.In the laptop market specifically, Apple recently raised prices on its MacBook devices as well; however, the company also introduced a new budget laptop, the MacBook Neo, which has put even more pressure on the Windows laptop market.

Trevor Noah addresses Trumps post-Grammys legal threats in Netflix special
Trevor Noah addresses the elephant in the room in his latest Netflix special, Joy in the Trenches.Filmed at the Warner Theatre in Washington, D.C., the former Daily Show host's comedy set hit the streaming service on Tuesday. Noah covers myriad topics about the state of the world, U.S. politics, and social media, including the time Donald Trump threatened to sue him over his Epstein joke at Grammys. "It hits different when you're in the crosshairs," he says. "I'm not gonna lie, it's pretty crazy."At the start of the set, Noah speaks about hosting The Daily Show for seven years, where he covered Trump and his administration every week, and essentially assumed the president would come after him at one point, which he didn't. "Then I left The Daily Show, and I relaxed like an idiot in a horror movie," says Noah.

In February, when hosting the 68th Annual Grammy Awards, Noah announced Song of the Year winner Billie Eilish, then delivered the joke that irked the president: "That is a Grammy that every artist wants almost as much as Trump wants Greenland, which makes sense because Epstein's island is gone, he needs a new one to hang out with Bill Clinton." (Trump and former U.S. President Bill Clinton are known to have associated with the convicted child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein; both have denied they visited Epstein’s private island, Little St. James, a central location for his crimes).Opening Joy in the Trenches, Noah takes the audience through what happened after the Grammys, when he flew back to Boston, getting thumbs ups from fellow passengers, and received an avalanche of messages — all while his phone was off."I turned on my phone and honestly, I thought the thing was malfunctioning, because it started vibrating before the icons popped up," he says. "Every app was going crazy: iMessage, WhatsApp, Twitter, Instagram, even Uber Eats was like, 'Yo, you got some hot shit coming in, man.' I went to my messages, and everyone I've ever known in my life had texted me. Everyone. From kindergarten teachers onwards."Noah explains, of course, he finally saw the post from Trump on his own platform, Truth Social, which the president posted just after the Grammys aired. Here, onstage, Noah reads the entire Truth Social post to the audience "because I don't want to misquote anything." Yelling every time Trump uses capitals (which is often), Noah runs through every quote from "The Grammy Awards are the WORST, virtually unwatchable!" to Trump's denial that he's "never been to Epstein Island, nor anywhere close."

Watching Noah's response to each of these lines is worth watching the special alone, including Trump's statement: "The host, Trevor Noah, whoever he may be, is almost as bad as Jimmy Kimmel at the Low Ratings Academy Awards.""You can't say 'the host, Trevor Noah, whoever he may be,' because that is exactly who I may be," Noah says. "I understand he was trying to dismiss me, but you said my full name and my job title on the night. You can't be dismissive and be vague and specific at the same time. That's not how that works. 'Whoever he may be' — I be nobody else. There is no may in this equation. That is exactly who I be."
"It hits different when you're in the crosshairs."
- Trevor Noah
Of course, Noah addresses the fact that Trump threatened that "it looks like I’ll be sending my lawyers" to sue the comedian for defamation, then concluded, "Get ready Noah, I’m going to have some fun with you!" — a line Noah seizes upon for its undeniably creepiness."That last line is something: Get ready Noah, I’m going to have some fun with you! You know, if you're not trying to sound like a sexual deviant, you this is not the line I would recommend."Noah gets real at one point, not sure how to react to the whole thing, and not knowing whether he'll actually be sued by Trump or not (depends on the week with the president, really). Trump has not filed a formal lawsuit in federal or state court."I'll be honest with you, I don't know how to feel, because I don't know how this will play out," Noah says. "With him, there is no knowing."Trevor Noah: Joy in the Trenches is now streaming on Netflix.

GoPro unveils cinematic 8K camera series Mission 1
GoPro has announced its new Mission 1 Series, 8K cameras aimed at prosumers, professionals, and content creators. Widely known for its action cameras, GoPro is now turning its attention to videographers who are after a compact and durable device capable of delivering cinematic results.The reveal of a new GoPro camera series will come as a surprise to many who were anticipating a Hero 14 Black announcement instead. Targeted at capturing action and adventure activities, GoPro's previously annual Hero Black releases took an unexpected break last year. As such, the most recent camera in the series remains the GoPro Hero 13 Black introduced in 2024.

Though GoPro's senior director of hardware product management Clark Weber told Mashable that the company remains "strong believers in the action product category," they aren't giving any hints as to when the next Hero Black camera might arrive. Instead, the company is focusing on broadening its appeal to less predominantly action-oriented content creators, such as filmmakers, vloggers, and video podcasters."If your video podcast is crappy you're going to lose an audience really fast. There's a demand for higher quality," Weber told Mashable. "To stand out you're going to want footage that is a little more cinematic."Enter: the GoPro Mission 1 Series.GoPro Mission 1 Pro: The flagship 8K cinematic camera
Credit: GoPro
The main attraction among GoPro's new camera series is its flagship Mission 1 Pro. This camera features a 50MP one-inch sensor, the largest sensor in any GoPro camera thus far, allowing for improved low-light performance and 14 stops of dynamic range. The Mission 1 Pro further benefits from GoPro's new GP3 processor, which was unveiled in March. The five-nanometre system-on-a-chip includes an AI Neural Processor Unit (NPU), which GoPro claims helps the GP3 double the GP2's pixel processing power.GoPro's Mission 1 Pro is capable of filming 4:3 Open Gate video at 8K 30fps and 4K 120fps, as well as 16:9 video at up to 8K 60fps, 4k 240fps, and 1080p 960fps (enabling a maximum 32X slo-mo). This is a notable resolution upgrade compared to the GoPro Hero 13 Black, which reaches a maximum of 5.3K 30fps at 8:7, or 60fps at 16:9. The Mission 1 Pro is further able to take 50MP RAW photos, with burst capture up to 60 per second, while the Hero 13 Black maxes out at 27.13MP RAW.

Assuming good airflow, GoPro states that its Mission 1 cameras will be able to record for around three hours at 4K 30fps on one fast-charging 2150mAh Enduro 2 Battery, or five hours at 1080p 30fps in Endurance Mode (one of 13 capture modes). It also has features such as subject tracking, which will use its 8K image sensor to deliver a 4K shot following a selected object. The Mission 1 Pro lens' native field of view (FOV) is 159-degrees, three degrees wider than the Hero 13 Black.Though less targeted at action users, the Mission 1 Pro retains GoPro's signature durability. The camera's waterproofing allows it to be submerged up to 20 meters (66 feet) in water without any casing, twice as deep as the Hero 13 Black. Its body has raised buttons for ease of use when wearing gloves, as well as a removable lens hood to reduce glare and lens flare. GoPro further states that its large rear OLED display is 14 percent larger than its previous flagship cameras. GoPro Mission 1 Pro ILS: A mirrorless camera for professionals
Credit: GoPro
For professionals who want the ability to swap out their camera lens, GoPro also unveiled its new Mission 1 Pro ILS. Largely identical to the Mission 1, the Pro ILS distinguishes itself by being mirrorless and not shipping with the GoPro Mission 1 lens. Instead, the Pro ILS has an interchangeable lens mount in its place, allowing the camera to be used with Micro Four Thirds (MFT) lenses and adapters.If you typically default to GoPro's preset modes, you're better off sticking with the Mission 1. However, if you're more seriously into filmography and use various lenses, the Mission 1 Pro ILS offers that flexibility.Importantly, the Mission 1 Pro ILS is weatherproof, not waterproof, so shouldn't be dunked in the ocean for some cool underwater shots. It's still durable even so, with GoPro claiming that it's "the world’s smallest, most rugged and versatile high-speed cinema camera."GoPro Mission 1: An entry-level cinematic cameraThe last camera in GoPro's Mission 1 lineup is the entry-level Mission 1. This camera is mostly the same as the Mission 1 Pro and PROL ILS, however its video resolution options are more limited than its siblings. The Mission 1 is capable of 4K 120fps Open Gate 4:3 video recording, as well as filming 16:9 videos at 8K 30fps, 4K 120fps, and 1080p 240fps. Like the Mission 1 Pro, it's waterproof up to 20 meters (66 feet).GoPro Wireless Mic System: A DJI Mic competitor
Credit: GoPro
GoPro has also unveiled several accessories to accompany its new cameras, including a redesigned Mission 1 Media Mod, a Point-and-Shoot Grip, an ND Filter 4-pack, and Protective Housing that can waterproof the Mission 1 or 1 PRO for up to 60 meters (196 feet). Most interestingly, GoPro has made a big move into audio with its new Wireless Mic System, a competitor to DJI's creator-loved lapel mics. Considering the challenges DJI is facing to its U.S. business, creators in the country may appreciate an alternative that's easier to get their hands on.More comparable to DJI's Mic 2 than the newer Mic 3, the GoPro Wireless Mic System can record 48kHz 24-bit audio as well as a -6dB backup track to help mitigate clipping, and has both noise reduction and adjustable gain — all features found on the DJI Mic 2. It lacks the 32-bit float and automatic adaptive gain of the DJI Mic 3, but does use a similar magnet and clip system to attach the transmitter to your clothes.

The transmission range of the Wireless Mic System sits at 150 meters (492 feet), which is considerably shorter than the DJI Mic 2's 250 meters (820 feet), and less than half of the Mic 3's 400 meters (1312 feet). Even so, most users likely won't need to record so far away from their subjects. GoPro states that its Wireless Mic System offers 6.5 hours of runtime per mic, which is comparable to the Mic 2's six hours but shorter than the Mic 3's eight. Its charging case also holds two more full charges, so you can top up your transmitters on the go. Though the GoPro Wireless Mic System doesn't seem to offer anything new, its similarities to the DJI Mic 2 still stand it in good stead considering how beloved the latter remains. Whether the Wireless Mic System is a tempting alternative to DJI's popular offerings may come down to its price.GoPro Mission 1 Series: Price and availabilityGoPro hasn't yet announced pricing for its new Mission 1 camera series or accessories. However, Weber told Mashable that the cameras are aimed at prosumer or professional users, offering cinematic picture quality at a comparatively affordable price point.Pre-orders for the GoPro Mission 1 Pro and Mission 1 will begin May 21, with availability starting May 28, while the Mission 1 Pro ILS will be available from the start of Q3 2026. The new Mission 1 accessories will roll out starting this May through Q3.Last week, GoPro announced plans to lay off approximately 145 employees this year, or around 23 percent of its workforce. The company reported a $9 million loss in Q4 2025, capping off a rough few years as it faces increasingly tough competition from rivals such as Insta360 and DJI. GoPro's new Mission 1 Series suggests the company is now aiming to improve its prospects by broadening its audience appeal.
You can find love after 40, new eharmony report finds
I'm not going to sugarcoat it: Dating, at any age, can be a nightmare, especially if you're looking for love in all the wrong places (or, sometimes, even if you're looking in the right places!). But brand-new data from eharmony has given me some hope for dating in my elder years.Today, eharmony released its "Redefining Love After 40" report (which makes sense, since that's the site's main demo according to research firm SSRS), and the stats are promising, to say the least. Pop culture loves to make dating after 40 look tragic and desperate (e.g., The 40-Year-Old Virgin, The Golden Bachelor, Hitch, and so on) but as it turns out, hitting your 40s, 50s, or 60s might be the best thing that could happen to your love life (though considering the rising STI rates in these demographics, it's clear older daters are having a lot of fun — just remember to use protection!).
SEE ALSO:
App fatigue is real. I tested the best dating apps of 2026 to find the ones that really work.
Eharmony's data (compiled from a survey of 3,016 U.S. singles in Feb. 2026) shows that singles in these age brackets aren't settling. Instead, they're stepping into a "chapter of possibility" with nothing holding them back, according to 23 percent of respondents. In fact, more than half (56 percent) said that turning 40 finally gave them more time to focus on themselves, and 21 percent see it as a chance to completely reinvent themselves. I do love this era of reinvention — like how divorce is giving women a way to become themselves again — but that's a topic for another time.Here's exactly why dating after 40 isn't the horror story everyone makes it out to be.Most people in their 40s know how to communicate. I won't pretend there aren't emotionally immature people out there who are 40+ (please see one of my favorite tweets of all time), but eharmony's data does suggest that by this time, daters are emotionally ready for something more.Sixty percent of daters between 40 and 49 said they're emotionally ready for a new long-term relationship. They're also cognizant of their mistakes: 44 percent of that same age group (and 46 percent of 60- to 69-year-olds) say the biggest lesson they took from past relationships is the importance of communication.Daters in this age group are also more honest about what they want, even if it doesn't fit the traditional mold. While 15 percent of 40-somethings want companionship without the labels, that number jumps to 21 percent once you hit the 60- to 69-year-old demographic.The sex is just better. Nearly half (48 percent) of 40-somethings, and 61 percent of 50-somethings, say they feel more confident expressing exactly what they want in bed now than ever before. And, I think the best part of those stats is that most daters say they want an emotional connection before things get physical — specifically, 37 percent of daters in their 40s and 53 percent in their 60s.Plus, 36 percent of the 40-49 crowd say they enjoy sex way more simply because they care less about what their partners think of their bodies. What a relief that must be! I'm not saying we all need to go full Danny from HBO's Neighbors and start strutting around a Florida nudist resort in a yellow thong (if you haven't seen it, I recommend doing so immediately), but I'll take that level of over-the-top confidence over being 22 and insecure any day.Peace and prosperity are #goals.By the time you hit your 40s and 50s, you've likely spent years building a life, a career, and maybe a family, so you're naturally less likely to let someone come in and wreck it. According to the report, daters in this demographic are actively rewriting the rules to protect their sanity. In fact, about 32 percent of 40- to 49-year-olds would consider maintaining completely separate households even in a long-term relationship to reduce blending stress and preserve their own routines.Messy financials are also a major deal-breaker. For singles in their 60s, irresponsible spending (55 percent), living beyond their means (57 percent), and excessive debt (57 percent) are all reasons to immediately end a relationship.They're not waiting around for a meet-cute. While the meet-cute is the #dream, daters in their 40s have realized that if you're not on the apps, you're basically guaranteed a dry spell; 31 percent of singles who refuse to use them have been single for over a decade. (I know those stats hurt a little.) Currently, 36 percent of 40-something singles are dating, and that number drops to 20 percent for singles in their fifties. Nineteen percent of 40-somethings, meanwhile, are actively swiping to find a relationship. So while they know the ropes, they might be taking a break. It might not be as romantic as a rom-com, but at least the people you're meeting know how to communicate (which is half the battle, right?).
Alienwares latest 27-inch QD-OLED gaming monitor has a surprising price
Alienware is making OLED more accessible in the AW2726DM, its new 27-inch gaming monitor. Announced Tuesday, April 14, the display offers a vivid QHD (2,560 x 1,440) QD-OLED screen at the surprisingly reasonable price of $349.99. It's available now on Dell's website.

OLED is a premium display technology that produces high contrast and deep black levels. Panels with upgraded QD-OLED (quantum dot OLED) tech are even brighter and more colorful than regular OLED panels, and thus usually more expensive. Mashable's Leah Stodart, who covers OLED TVs, tells me that the AW2726DM should be especially good for gaming in well-lit rooms.OLED and QD-OLED gaming monitors from big-name brands like Asus, Dell, LG, MSI, and Samsung normally retail for at least $500 unless they're on sale, according to Best Buy's listings. Up until now, Alienware's QD-OLED monitors have started at $549.99 with the 27-inch AW2725D from mid-2025.Alienware AW2726DM gaming monitor specs

The AW2725D also supported Nvidia's G-Sync technology, which allowed it to match its refresh rate to Nvidia GeForce GPUs' framerates to minimize stuttering and screen tearing. The newer, cheaper AW2726DM monitor can only do this with AMD Radeon GPUs via AMD FreeSync Premium. Fancy gaming monitors aren't the only Alienware hardware that's getting more accessible in 2026. The company, which has a reputation for making futuristic yet costly gaming gear, previewed a new entry-level gaming laptop at the Consumer Electronics Show back in January. It will arrive sometime later this year at "our most accessible price point yet," per a blog post.

The Perfect Order expansion has continued to see price fluctuations in the Pokémon TCG space. Now, you can even get the Build and Battle Box for just under $36. As of April 14, Amazon sellers have the Build and Battle Box listed from $47.95, down from its typical $58.95 range. Walmart has already moved lower to $38.95. Over on TCGplayer, unopened listings are now starting at $35.80 with shipping included. That puts it just $3.48 above the current $32.32 market price, and significantly below both major retailers.At this point, the gap between listing price and market price is small enough that you’re effectively buying at market value — something that rarely happens this quickly with sealed Pokémon TCG products.Like other Build and Battle Boxes, Perfect Order includes a 40-card ready-to-play deck, four booster packs, a code card for Pokémon TCG Live, and one of four possible foil promo cards.

Stephen Colbert breaks down the weird AI image Trump shared of himself as Jesus
After attacking the Pope over the weekend on his own Truth Social, Donald Trump doubled down in the strangest way: by sharing an AI image (now deleted) that appeared to show the president as Jesus — Trump claimed he thought "it was me as a doctor and had to do with Red Cross.""He posted this AI image depicting himself as Jesus, presumably trying to heal Jon Stewart," says Stephen Colbert in the Late Show clip above, making the same observation that Jon Stewart made himself on The Daily Show."It's worth taking a moment to break down what's going on here," Colbert continues. "Above him is a heavenly host heralding the savior in chief's arrival: You've got a bunch of cloud soldiers, an astronaut with a shiv, and that middle guy is a winged man-beast with spikes where his head should be, looking like a bootleg Transformers action figure your grandma got you at the dollar store."Want more of the best of late night?

Jimmy Kimmel roasts Trump over his attack on Pope Leo XIV
"We have a fight between the president and the Pope. The world has become a real life episode of South Park."This is Jimmy Kimmel's summary of Donald Trump's latest outburst on Truth Social, which saw him attacking Pope Leo XIV over the weekend and calling him "WEAK on Crime", following the Pope's recent calls for peace."What does the Pope have to do with crime?" asks Kimmel. "He's not Batman, he's the Pope. This is what happens when you sell bibles instead of reading them."Kimmel goes on to discuss the already infamous AI image Trump shared (and then deleted) which appeared to show him as Jesus, healing a man in a sick bed."Maybe the weirdest detail?" says Kimmel. "The man Donald Jesus Trump is healing looks a whole lot like Jeffrey Epstein. Even AI can't keep him from his BF, Jeff."Want more of the best of late night?

Jon Stewart weighs in on Trumps angry Truth Social posts attacking the Pope
Donald Trump is lashing out on social media again, and this time Pope Leo XIV is the target. Over the weekend, following the Pope making a call for peace, the U.S. president took to his own Truth Social to post that he was "WEAK on Crime, and terrible for Foreign Policy."During his Daily Show monologue on Monday, Jon Stewart had thoughts."I am really starting to sour on this president. What is going through Trump's mind? What did the Pope say? He wants what? Dialogue? Peace? He wants to choose the noblest aspirations of mankind to show humanity at its greatest articulation? F**k that loser!" Stewart says. "And look, president Trump, I know the Vatican's been critical of your policies, but you got to remember that at the end of the day, you and the Catholic church both historically care deeply about the same thing: covering up sex scandals."Stewart goes on to talk about the AI image Trump shared of himself healing a man lying in a bed — a man who, on closer inspection, does bear a striking resemblance to Stewart himself."Am I OK?" the host says after a long stare at the image. "What the f***?"Want more of the best of late night? Sign up for Mashable's Top Stories newsletter.

At Amazon’s current price, you’re paying about $7.16 per booster pack. TCGplayer drops that to roughly $6.58 per pack for the same six booster packs, which is the better value by a pretty decent margin. Walmart comes out almost identical to Amazon on a per-pack basis, so this is one of those rare moments where the dedicated card marketplace is also the simplest answer. The Pokémon TCG Mega Evolution Perfect Order Booster Bundle includes six booster packs from the expansion, with each pack containing 10 trading cards, one Basic Energy, and one Pokémon TCG Live code card. It’s also a straightforward starting point for collecting the set’s lineup of more than 120 cards, including valuable chase cards including special illustration rares for Pokémon like Mega Zygarde ex, Mega Clefable ex, Mega Starmie ex, and Meowth ex. For even more reasonable prices from the new Pokémon TCG expansion, the Perfect Order Elite Trainer Box is now available for under $70. If it’s the rarer Ascended Heroes range you’re interested in buying, Amazon and Walmart are selling the Ascended Heroes Elite Trainer Box for under market price.
