Update your Netflix: Don’t know the difference between the “Today’s Top Picks” and “Your Next Watch” categories on Netflix? Me, neither. Netflix is redesigning its app to make it easier to navigate (and get you to watch more).

Vroom-vroom! Check out this database of the 62 e-bike incentive programs available in 19 states. You can score up to $1,400 off a snazzy new bike. Pro tip: Don’t buy an e-bike that costs less than $700. Not worth the battery fire risk.

Wanna take a road trip? Try Sēkr, a trip planner designed specifically for road trippers and those enjoying the van life. It has more scenic route recommendations and reviews for campsites off the beaten path.

Analyze tables in ChatGPT: First, select GPT-4o as your model. Upload your table and hit the “expand” button to explore your data.

Delete this app: For years, Bartender was a reliable app for decluttering your Mac’s menu bar. But it was just sold to an unknown owner, and no one’s been able to contact Bartender’s founder. Bartender records your Mac screen to function, which means it’s not something you want to give a sketchy developer access to. Delete it ASAP.

Need a new book? If you have Amazon Prime, grab two free e-books from their monthly First Reads selections. It’s early access to popular new books. Sweet!
