The headphones feature over 256 customization options, including interchangeable cushions and headbands, and are available for pre-order at $350, with promotional cushion kits priced at $9.99.

Gen Z Fuels Cold, Customizable Drinks Trend Across Chains

Gen Z shoppers in the US and abroad are shifting from hot coffee to iced, customizable beverages, a trend that’s lifting demand for cold drinks at chains like Starbucks (where most beverages are cold) and prompting rivals such as Dunkin and McDonald’s to expand cold options; social media buzz and the appeal of personalized drinks make cold beverages a form of self-expression that can carry a premium, while price sensitivity remains a factor and the trend appears year‑round.

Flames, Shaker Hood, and a $25K Gamble on a 2010 Challenger R/T

A low-mileage 2010 Dodge Challenger R/T with a 5.7L Hemi and a six-speed manual, just 23,000 miles, is listed for $25,000 in North New Jersey. It features a bold flame-painted exterior, a shaker hood with a Cervinis cold-air intake (claimed to add up to 15 hp), aftermarket wheels, a large rear wing, extra gauges, and a largely stock interior with modern amenities. The piece calls it a turnkey, well-kept package but questions whether the aftermarket mods and the price justify the value, noting that the $25K tag sits near the price of newer, more powerful Challengers.

Tesla UI Themes: A New Spin on In-Car Personalization

The piece argues for optional UI themes in Teslas, suggesting themes could alter layouts and aesthetics (neon Cyberpunk, minimalist, earthy) and potentially affect functionality. Given Tesla's Linux-based infotainment stack and use of HTML/CSS/JS across apps, swapping CSS stylesheets could implement themes. Tesla already allows customization (lock sounds, wraps, car visuals), and themes could improve usability with high-contrast or accessibility options and could be exposed in Display/Toybox settings as opt-in skins.

Windows 11 is getting a more configurable context menu. In upcoming preview builds, a new Customize option lets you open Settings to pick which actions appear, adjust layout by placing primary actions vertically (Windows 10 style) or horizontally, and group certain actions (like cloud storage) in their own sections.
