500: maintenance mode

Greetings from the Engine Room!

Sorry, but there's really nothing to see here right now. Our server is in maintenance mode – and our little bot is trying to sort the error messages with its last bit of energy.

Whether it was a data leak, a power outage in the cluster, or just a grumpy bit – we don't know yet. But what we do know is:

The data drama escalated into a server meltdown. But don't worry: We're on it.

What now?

Everything is surely running smoothly over at our colleagues from inside digital – why not stop by!
Or you could pass the time by visiting our social media channels – for example Instagram, YouTube or TikTok. At least there are no server problems there – promised.

Thanks for your patience. Our bot is already rebooting at full speed. 🔧

Sony LinkBuds Fit Review: Comfortable, Colorful, and Easy to Use

The Sony LinkBuds Fit wireless headphones are less elitist, more colorful, and way more fun than the WF-1000XM5. It retailed for $200 a pop at release but has since experienced a discount. In this comprehensive review, I will share why these headphones are an excellent alternative to Sony’s top-of-the-range models.

M4 iMac Review: A Beautiful Irony

The iMac starts from $1,299 in 2024 but boasts more RAM and is significantly faster thanks to the M4 SoC. There’s also a new webcam and you can order nano-texture glass upon request. Does this sound like it is the best iMac ever? Absolutely, but this M4 iMac review also points out inconsistencies in Apple’s product range. This is no clickbait as I will explain in this M4 iMac review!
