What’s Coming to Amazon Prime Video in June 2020
Amazon Prime Video can get confusing. Like its global namesake, the streaming service is a digital jungle of titles. That’s why each month Consequence of Sound puts together a full list of new TV and film titles being dropped into the thick of it. June 2020 is kind of meh. There aren’t many new titles, per se, though there are a number of sleazy and sticky popcorn classics. You know, like Hard Rai...

1996 Chevrolet Express Retro Review: Still the Same
With the families of baby boomers growing older and their travel requirements changing, some industry analysts are predicting a swing upmarket from kid-toting minivans to recreational-toy-towing full-size vans. If the current trends continue, the full-size segment could grow as much as 30 percent by 2002. The new Chevy Express and GMC Savana are nothing short of a frame-up rethink of the full...
These are the Top 10 Toyota Engines of All Time
Toyota’s legacy as an engine designer and producer is inextricably intertwined with the inline-six.

How Lenovo is Pursuing Sustainable Supercomputers

Sure, it has thousands of servers, or nodes, stacked in rows in a windowless vault with technicians working diligently on huge data crunching conundrums for research organisations; running simulations to try and better predict future natural disasters like tsunamis and earthquakes. But it is eerily quie...
26 Expensive-Looking H&M Basics With Glorious Reviews
Shopping for basics is admittedly not the most exciting thing in the world, but they’re some of the most important wardrobe purchases you can make. And since you wear them so often, you also are likely to need to replace them more often than other items in your wardrobe, which means that you might not want to spend a lot of money on them either. Enter H&M. You may first think of H&a...
Summer Outfit Ideas: 6 Looks You’ll Want to Wear as Much as We Do
Sometimes, summer outfits need to be straightforward and simple to assemble, with just a flourish of a key accessory or subtle injection of a new styling move, and sometimes —because the UK’s climate is so unpredictable—the layering and construction will be more demanding (we’ve supplied the more advanced levels, of course). So without further ado, let’s introduce you to the summ...
