Google has a post up on its security blog that is half advertisement and half PSA-style announcement for Android users: go into your settings and turn off the "Allow 2G" toggle. This option, added in Android 12 back in 2021, does exactly what it sounds like: it turns off support for 2G cellular networking. Why would you want to do that? Because attackers are using the insecure 2G protocol to spoof phone numbers and send SMS spam.

Dealing with stubborn floor stains is no longer an issue. Robot vacuum and mop combos are a lifesaver for any household, making the otherwise time-consuming chore of maintaining pristine floors a breeze. A flagship robot vacuum can set you back well beyond a thousand dollars if you want all the bells and whistles. But most tend to fall short in one key are — active mopping. Most robot mops struggle with tough spills like, say, tomato sauce or coffee stains, where you not only run the risk of spreading out the mess but also have dirty mop pads that will stain the floors of other rooms.

The Eureka J20’s RollRenew Mopping System is groundbreaking

The Nothing Phone 2a Plus is a shining example of a budget phone done right. Even with intense competition in this pricing tier, the Phone 2a Plus offers a unique design, stellar specs, a beautiful display, and a decent camera system for less money than Google, Samsung, or other brands ask for similar products. Limited carrier support and an awkward purchase system make it a hard sell for US buyers, but elsewhere it's hands down one of the best affordable phones you can get.

Nothing Phone 2a Plus would be the Nothing Phone I'd buy... if I didn't live in the US
