First, Instagram removed its infamous "following" tab, which let you surreptitiously keep track of what posts your friends were liking. Now, the company will no longer let you view more than a handful of photos on public profiles if you're not logged in.
Prior to the update, which was implemented in the last few weeks, anyone could browse public-facing profiles on Instagram via a browser without logging into the service. Now, after...

Earlier this month, Surface boss Panos Panay showed how you’d be able to get into the Surface Laptop 3 just by lifting off the top plate — and it turns out, it’s pretty much as easy as Panay made it seem, according to iFixit’s Surface Laptop 3 teardown.
Previous Surface Laptops weren’t easy to open up at all. You had to forcibly pry off the keyboard and top cover assembly to get to the internals — iFixit used a knife on the Surface Laptop — and when you...
Chromebooks are able to run Android apps, but mostly just ones from the Google Play Store — if you wanted to install something that’s not officially sanctioned, you’d generally need to flip your device into a far less secure Developer Mode and/or beam it over from a tethered phone. That won’t be the case with Chrome OS 80, though — that release will add a native sideloading option for Android app APKs, according to Google.
Just ask AboutChromebooks’ Kevin Tofel, who spotted the...

Michael Reeves, the YouTuber who built a bot to let his Twitter followers pick bedroom decor, finally showed off his newly designed room.
Reeves put out a call for suggestions earlier this month. When followers replied to his tweet with Amazon links, the bot found the most-liked replies, automatically purchased it, and delivered it to Reeves' new home. As long as the item was under $25, the bot would continue to buy the most-liked Amazon links every 15 minutes for 24 hours.
