Why you should buy the HyperX QuadCast S microphone and HyperX Cloud Alpha S gaming headset bundle

The HyperX QuadCast S microphone is compatible with Windows PCs, Mac computers, the PlayStation 5, and the PlayStation 4. It comes with a built-in anti-vibration shock mount to isolate audio and suppress unintentional sounds for uninterrupted audio while you’re streaming, and it also offers a tap-to-mute feature for instances when you need to block off the microphone. To make it look better in your streams, the HyperX QuadCast S microphone features RGB lighting that you can customize with dynamic effects.

The HyperX Cloud Alpha S gaming headset will keep you immersed in the game that you’re playing for your stream with its NGENUITY software that automatically selects the most appropriate sound profile for supported games. You’ll be able to select from three levels of bass through the sliders on the earcups of the gaming headset, and they’ll stay comfortable on your head even after hours of streaming as they’re made of breathable leatherette and memory foam. If you’ll ever use the HyperX Cloud Alpha S gaming headset by itself, it comes with a noise-cancelling microphone so you’ll be loud and clear to your teammates in multiplayer matches.

Instead of buying from microphone deals and gaming headset deals separately, aspiring streamers would want to take advantage of HP’s 40% discount for the HyperX QuadCast S microphone and HyperX Cloud Alpha S gaming headset bundle. You’ll spend $290 if you buy them separately, but you can get them both for just $172, for savings of $118. This opportunity won’t be available for long though, so if you want to give your streams a boost in audio, proceed with your transaction for this HyperX QuadCast S microphone and HyperX Cloud Alpha S gaming headset bundle.

YouTube’s AI search is now available across all major screens.
Ask YouTube on TV and desktop

Searching for something online by simply describing what you want is becoming pretty normal now. Google Search can do it. ChatGPT can do it. And YouTube has been slowly turning its own search box into something that works in a similar fashion.

YouTube has now announced a wider rollout for Ask YouTube, its conversational AI search tool. The feature is available to users in the U.S. across the web, mobile devices, and TVs. Mobile is the newest addition here, after Ask YouTube previously expanded to the web and smart TVs. Instead of putting a few keywords into the search bar, you can ask YouTube a complete question, describe what you are looking for, and then refine the results using follow-up questions.

It's raining frontier AI models. Soon after Anthropic set alarm bells ringing with its Claude Fable model at the summit of AI peformance, OpenAI answered with GPT-6 Astra. Not one to be left behind, Google released Gemini 4 Argon. The race is now getting hotter as Meta enters the fray with two new AI models in the Muse series: Wonder and Wonder Full. Cheesy naming aside, these Meta AI models mean business, or at least that's what the benchmark figures suggest. More importantly, these AI models are already making their way to Muse users.

I am talking about apps with a generous dose of AI wizardry happening in the background.

In a span of just one week, I have built a full-fledged Android app for my Galaxy Z Fold 8 foldable phone, three Mac apps, and an iPhone app. And here's the fun part. The entire journey of creating these apps actually started on a phone, jumped to my MacBook Neo, compiled just fine, and ran flawlessly, without making me want to tear my hair off. The latest example? 

It built my calendar-clipboard hybrid app in Terminal within 20 seconds, and an on-device transcription app with a retro look in roughly 15 seconds. I used to think building desktop software would have me burning the midnight oil. The MacBook Neo did it in less time than I can pour myself a can of soda and take the first sip.
