Cybercriminals never stop coming up with ways to steal your info, so Iâm always on the hunt for tools that make your digital life safer. One of their sneakiest tricks? Keyloggers.

Your little one can use only for six months. The Elvie Rise is a fancy bouncer and bassinet combo that debuted at CES. You can control it from your phone, but itâs only suitable for babies under six months, or until they can sit up on their own. At that price, this thing should get âem through kindergarten.
In bitcoin transactions last year. To put it into perspective, bitcoin transactions totaled $8.7 trillion in 2023. This marks the first time since 2021 that the price of bitcoin has gone up, not down. How can you tell who owns bitcoin at a party? Don’t worry, they’ll tell you.
Is totally hot right now. New movies like Nicole Kidmanâs âBabygirlâ and Anne Hathawayâs âThe Idea of Youâ celebrate middle-aged women. Hollywood finally agrees that, yeah, older women are hot!
Worth of a 1999 Georgia state quarter. Check the couch cushions! They were printed with all kinds of errors, and that makes them valuable. One of the rarest variations is thicker than normal, with a gold-greenish tint and no copper edge. Hit this list for the details.
In rare medical book sales predicted for the 2020s â everything from guides to bloodletting to how-tos for treating a gunshot wound with boiling oil (paywall link).
