I’m so sorry but we’re still talking about Marie Kondo. The popularity of her Netflix show Tidying Up caused an uptick in donations to thrift stores and used bookstores, according to CNN, the New Yorker, and Seattle’s Stranger. Not every store has seen more incoming books, but plenty have, including New York’s Housing…
Trader Joe’s loves a theme and, if the veritable wealth of holiday items are any indication, they freaking adore the Christmas season. The selection of cookies, candy, and other edible ephemera is frankly overwhelming, so we took it upon ourselves to taste test it all, and let you know which items are worthy of your…
It’s finally Friday, and there are three huge video game releases and the new season of Stranger Things to possibly check out. Here are some tips to help you decide how to spend your weekend.
You can take a lot of nice photos in Breath of the Wild, but really, what can you do with them? Share them with friends, I guess, but they don’t really care, they’ve seen your horse 100 times before. NV/Haru had a better idea: turn them into a book.
Our English teachers told us to avoid the word “very” because it’s weak and vague. They were right, and many times, we use “very” as a modifier for a word that could easily be replaced with a stronger, more accurate word. This infographic tells you what to use instead.
We all meet and get to know lots of people in our lives, but it can be tricky to figure out who your true friends are. Good friends are the ones that will respond when you're in a time of need, or will show up to an occasion when you need or want your friends around you. In short, good friends show up.
Netflix's huge streaming selection can be overwhelming when you don't know what you want to watch. Instead of rolling dice or being paralyzed by the choices, there's a better option.
As we’re just over two weeks away from the PlayStation 4 launch on November 15th in the United States and Canada, Sony has decided to release a Mega PS4 FAQ. Since it can be rather daunting and contains so much information, we’ll be breaking the important information we’ve yet to cover fully into separate posts, hopefully making finding what you need a little easier.
Although it doesn’t mean we won’t see it happen down the road, Sony has confirmed that you won’t be able to rename your PSN Online ID on the PS4. The PS4 does give you the option of allowing your friends to see your real name in addition to your Online ID though, while you can also choose to import a Facebook photo to be your PSN profile picture.
When it comes to the 2,000 friends list that the PS4 allows being displayed on your PS3, the servers will automatically filter your friend’s list, but if you choose, you can set and lock a pre-determined friends list. Support for the ability to display all of your friends in most applications and games is planned, however, some titles will be limited to the current 100 Friends limit.
As for sub-accounts on PS4, they work in exactly the same way as PS3, but you won’t be able to change a child’s PS3 sub-account to a master account on PS4 once they are past the age of 18. If this is the case, it’s recommended you create a new master account.
If you’re wondering what the PS4 parental controls are, they will allow you to set the control level for games, apps and the internet browser. As well:
For each sub account user, there are the controls over the ability to use chat and messaging features, the ability to post and view user-generated media, and the ability to control a monthly spending limit for PlayStation Store purchases. Finally, sub account users cannot link their account with Social Network Services or use their real name or profile picture.
Expect more info on PS4 parental controls at launch.
