| January 26, 2023—National Peanut Brittle Day. What's a good way to improve a Thursday? For some, it's peanut brittle. If this particular snack is your jam, then treat yourself to a bunch of it today. Just leave room for lunch and dinner later. | | | ⏰ Today's Big Stories... in 30 Seconds | | | Today We Watched, Read, and Listened to (so you don't have to): | | 522 articles, 16 podcasts, 21 press releases, 536 tweets, and 26 YouTube videos | | | 1. Chromebooks Can Now Play Games via New Cloud Gaming Service | | Cloud gaming platform Boosteroid just released a Chromebook app, bringing a large catalog of games to the OS. The service grants remote access to a high-end gaming desktop with hundreds of titles at your disposal for $10/month, but Chromebook users get a free month to try things out. Aww, that's nice. | | 2. Twitch Makes It Easier to Promote, Control, and Monetize Streams | | A number of new tools and features for monetization and streaming are headed to Twitch this year. If you're active on Twitch, expect easier ways to edit and promote VOD clips, a new Q&A feature, "personalized discounts" tailored to individual viewers, and more. Interesting. Not bad, Twitch. | | 3. 'GoldenEye 007' Lands on Xbox and Switch Consoles Very Soon | | The slightly updated version of GoldenEye 007 finally has a release date for Switch and Xbox consoles, and it's sooner than you may think. How soon? How about this Friday? If you have Xbox Game Pass, Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack, or Rare Replay, then you're all set. Welcome back, 007. | | | That's a lot of commercials | | | Twitch viewers watched a lot of content throughout 2022, consistently watching over 1.5 billion hours of Twitch streams each month. Was it all good? Who knows, but if this month is any indication, the hour count will remain largely the same. Can you imagine how many ads must've played? | | | 🔥 Today's Hot Deal | | Does your iPhone need more battery? The Anker 626 Magnetic Battery is the way to go. Snap it onto the back of your phone to keep it going longer, or use it like a standing charger. The choice is yours, and it's down to $44.99 on Amazon right now. | | | | | "We can all agree that Chrome is still too demanding." —Jerri Ledford, Senior News Editor | | Can you imagine people arguing over which browser is best? Some of us can, but if you're on the younger side, we suggest checking out this video from Mozilla to learn all about the ol' browser wars. Good times. (Share on Twitter) | | | Is a 48-inch 4K monitor a bit excessive? Yes. Should you want one anyway? Also yes. The Aorus FO48U 48-Inch 4K OLED is one such indulgence, and we think you should embrace it if you regularly play games on PC or stream movies/TV shows a lot. | | | Forspoken is the latest game from publisher Square Enix and... people have mixed opinions about it. Is it good? Bad? It's a bit of both. Maybe this review from IGN's Tom Marks can clear things up. | | |
