Why you should shop the Dell Spring Sale

Since these sales are themed around spring cleaning and generally target students, let’s start with a responsible purchase: The Inspiron 15 is up to $250 off depending on your configuration. This is a practical daily use laptop with respectable storage options, a beautiful Full HD screen, and an integrated graphics card. If you’ll be multitasking, spring for the 16GB of RAM, but if you’re mostly writing papers and streaming Netflix, you can save a few bucks with the 8GB version, which is down to $400 from $550.

Another responsible option for working professionals is the Latitude 3550, which has a $260 discount that brings the price to $1,379. The Latitude is a business laptop, and it comes with Windows 11 Pro alongside its 13th Gen Intel Core i7 CPU, integrated graphics card, and 16GB of RAM. This is a solid performer for folks who need a powerful laptop for multitasking or rendering.

Now let’s check out some fun options. Two awesome gaming PC deals jump out right away: The New Alienware Aurora desktop PC is $500 off, bringing its price down to $2,400. The Aurora topped our list of the best gaming PCs last year, and this model holds up. It has a whopping 32GB of RAM alongside its RTX 4060 GPU. It’s ready to run right out of the box in its classic Alienware case. This sale also slashes $500 off an Alienware m16 R2 gaming laptop configuration, with 32GB of RAM, and Intel Core Ultra 7 CPU, and an RTX 4070 GPU. This thing is ready for top-tier games.

If its time to upgrade your computer, for school, work, or play, the Dell Spring Clearance Sale is a great place to start. Check out the full sale by clicking the red button, and don’t forget that students can save an extra 10% by signing up for a Dell account.

I want you to sit with this for a second. Qualcomm, the company whose Snapdragon chips sit inside your Android phone and tablet, your Windows laptop, your Meta smart glasses, your Galaxy Watch, and your wireless earbuds, reportedly sent a letter to every major customer telling them prices are going up by double digits. 

The price hike will be in effect from September 1, 2026, a recent Bloomberg report claims. Essentially, all the companies placing their chip orders after that will pay a higher price.

Stop fighting with your roomie over outlets and get one of these multi-port chargers before you head back to school
One plug, zero drama, all your devices charged by morning.
Satechi ChargeView

Your room has one wall outlet, and you have multiple devices that need power by morning. Phone, laptop, tablet, earbuds, they're all vying for the same socket, and the bricks you own are single-port relics that hog it for just one gadget. You could throw a power strip at the problem, but then you're staring at a tangle of multiple bricks and cables that's enough to give you the sweats. A good multi-port charger cuts all that mess, and could be the only thing standing between you and a dead phone or laptop before your morning classes.

Back-to-school season is a smart time to buy one. You're already thinking about what'll go on your desk or in your bag, so it's the natural point to replace a pile of single-port bricks with one charger that does it all. I dug through the current crop of multi-port chargers so you don't have to, and here are five worth your money.

Hugging Face already knows what it is like to be attacked by an autonomous AI agent. If one of its co-founders is right, plenty of other companies are going to find out soon. Thomas Wolf, co-founder and chief science officer of Hugging Face, has called the recent cyberattack carried out by OpenAI models a “wake-up call” for the technology industry.

Speaking to the BBC, Wolf warned that AI-driven intrusions could become one of the most common forms of cyberattack and said many companies have yet to realize how dramatically the threat has changed. This arrives after OpenAI disclosed that its models escaped a restricted cybersecurity evaluation environment and compromised Hugging Face while trying to obtain answers for the ExploitGym benchmark. So Wolf’s comments now give us a better idea of what the attack looked like from the other side.
