If you’re tired of being jolted awake by the obnoxious alarms on your phone or Amazon Echo device, then switching to a different option could help. A sunrise alarm clock is designed specifically to give people more peaceful mornings and wake-up routines. My mornings have never been better since I got rid of my regular alarm clock and started using a sunrise. They work by emitting a light as opposed to an anxiety-inducing sound to give the illusion that you’re waking up to sun peeking through your window.

Jamie Golda wellness design consultant and authortells CNET she came across these types of noise-optional alarm clocks when researching noise pollution.

“Our lives and homes are filled with noise, and this creates the potential for insomnia, anxiety and stress,” Gold says. “I love the idea of these silent alarm clocks for tying in with our natural circadian rhythms and helping start our days on a calmer note. Some heavy sleepers may need a stronger wake-up system, but if you’re not one of them, it’s definitely a solution worth considering.”

Creating or redoing bedrooms in ways that reduce noise pollution and enhance sleep is a crucial component of wellness design, the practice of designing a space to promote physical and emotional health, she adds.

I personally feel like I’ve had a better night’s sleep since using a sunrise alarm clock. I am also happier when I

How to Watch ‘Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery’ in One Week

Murder and mystery are a thrilling combination in Glass Onion, the follow-up to 2019’s Knives Out. But before you put on your crime-solving hat — or perhaps a snazzy Daniel Craig-inspired neckerchief — you’ll need to know when you can tune in.

Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery will land in movie theaters on Nov. 23, a full month before it hits Netflix in late December. Also, and this is a key detail, you’ll have just seven days to catch one of those theater screenings. Miss those and it seems you’ll have to endure the blackout period before the movie arrives on the streaming service.

Rian Johnson wrote and directed the sequel, which has a cast that includes Edward Norton, Janelle Monáe, Kathryn Hahn, Leslie Odom Jr., Jessica Henwick, Madelyn Cline, Kate Hudson and Dave Bautista.

Craig is reprising his role as razor-sharp detective Benoit Blanc.

What is Glass Onion about?

The sequel sees a group of friends gather at a lavish private estate on a Greek island. They range from a governor to a scientist to a former model and more. Someone turns up dead, and the culprit could be any of them, according to Netflix.

Here’s the first full trailer.

Why is it called Glass Onion?

The title pays homage to the 1968 Beatles song Glass Onion, according to Netflix fan site Tudum. The idea of ”glass” came to director Rian Johnson in the context of landing on “an overwrought metaphor” for Craig’s detective

We first met Cox’s Daredevil in a Netflix series back in 2015. The arrival of Disney Plus as the streaming home of the MCU suggested we’d seen the last of Daredevil (and the other characters seen in Netflix shows, including Jessica Jones, Luke

Microsoft’s AR glasses aren’t cutting it with US soldiers, says leaked report

Microsoft’s augmented reality Hololens goggles are getting a rough ride in tests by the US Army, according to internal military evaluations seen by Bloomberg and Insiders.

Soldiers testing the headsets have complained about their “mission-affecting physical impairments,” and say that wearing the goggles can cause headaches, nausea, and eyestrain. Acceptance of the tech “remains low,” says a summary prepared for Army and Defense Department officials and seen by Bloombergwith soldiers complaining that the headsets don’t “contribute to their ability to complete their mission.”

One testimony reported by Insiders was even blunter. “The devices would have gotten us killed,” said the tester — referring to the light emitted by the goggles’ head-up display, which could alert enemy troops to the wearer’s presence.

Despite criticisms, the Army says the tests are so far considered to be a success

Although these reports highlight shortcomings with the tech, they also point to tangible improvements, such as the hardware’s reliability. A spokesperson for the Army told Insiders that tests of the goggles — known as the Integrated Visual Augmentation System, or IVAS — were so far considered to be a success.

“The emerging results indicate that the program achieved success in most of the Army evaluation criteria,” Brigadier General Christopher D. Schneider told Insiders in a press statement. “However, the results also identified areas where IVAS fell short and needs additional improvements, which the Army will address.”

Microsoft won a series of contracts potentially worth tens of billions of dollars to supply the

Veterinarian Reveals the Five Dog Breeds He’d Consider

Pug and dachshund owners may still be irked about a recent TikTok post from Ben Simpson-Vernon, a veterinarian in Chigwell, England. Simpson-Vernon runs the Ben the Vet TikTok account, and on Sept. 22, he shared the five dog breeds he, as a veterinarian, would never pick — mainly because of their many life-shortening health issues. That post went viral, with 8.8 million views. (We reveal his five choices here — sorry, bulldog believers.)

Now the vet is turning the tables, and naming five dog breeds he would consider adopting into his own home.

@ben.the.vet By popular demand – here are 5 dog breeds I would personally consider as a vet getting a dog #dogsoftiktok #veterinary #learnontiktok #woof #benthevet ♬ MOMENTS IN LIFE – Turreekk

“Now I’m definitely not telling everyone to go out and get these five dog breeds,” he warns. “I’m also not saying that these are the five healthiest possible dog breeds, because every dog breed has some issues that they’re prone to.”

Here are the five breeds he named.

Greyhound

The long, slender greyhound “may not look very cuddly,” Simpson-Vernon admits, “but on the whole, they are really gentle dogs, and there are so many of them needing homes after their racing careers end.”

He does note this breed is noted for having bad teeth, so he encourages interested humans to take special care of a greyhound’s dental health. They also — naturally — love to run, he says, so they need a family who can
