If you’re a big fan of Lifetime TV, you simple need to get your hands on the network’s official app for Windows 8.1.

From popular shows like Devious Maids to Project Runway, you can get your fix for all of these Lifetime TV staples by simply schlepping on over to the Windows app store and downloading the Lifetime TV app for free. Just open the store, and search for “Lifetime.” It should be the first result that comes up.

As the app’s official description in the Windows store states, you aren’t just limited to TV shows. You can also watch over 25 full-length movies with the app. Plus, you can set up a customized watch list, and you also get access to Lifetime TV’s full schedule. You can also watch video previews, as well as behind-the-scenes clips. Perhaps best of all, new movies, TV shows, preview and behind-the-scenes videos are added every single day.

When you click on a movie or a TV show in the app, you’re provided with a brief description of what it’s about. This is useful, because you never have to go into something blindly, and perhaps spend a few minutes watching something just to figure out if you like it or not. Clicking on a movie will also tell you how long it is, so you can properly gauge whether you can start and finish it in a single sitting, or whether you’ll need to pick it up later at a different time. You’ll also get an original airdate, which tells you whether the movie was recently made, or whether it was released a while ago.

If you’re a Lifetime TV addict, you should grab this app before they start charging for it!

Prepare your wallet — this RTX 5090 PC costs over $6,000
Acer Predator Orion 7000 sitting on a table.

It's safe to say that no one expects Nvidia's best graphics cards to be cheap, but wow, these leaked listings are something else. Otto.de, a German retailer, briefly listed two Acer Predator Orion gaming PCs equipped with the RTX 5090 and the RTX 5080, and the prices are pretty crazy. The PC that comes with the RTX 5090 was priced at 5,999 euros, or around $6,240.

These listings were taken down shortly after they appeared, but VideoCardz snapped some screenshots before it was too late. Both seem to be newer versions of the Acer Predator Orion, and are equipped with Nvidia's upcoming RTX 50-series graphics cards and Intel's Core Ultra 200 series CPUs.

Intel’s promised Arrow Lake autopsy details up to 30% loss in performance
The Core Ultra 9 285K socketed into a motherboard.

Intel's Arrow Lake CPUs didn't make it on our list of the best processors when they released earlier this year. As you can read in our Core Ultra 9 285K review, Intel's latest desktop offering struggled to keep pace with last-gen options, particularly in games, and showed strange behavior in apps like Premiere Pro. Now, Intel says it has fixed the issues with its Arrow Lake range, which accounted for up to a 30% loss in real-world performance compared to Intel's in-house testing.

The company identified five issues with the performance of Arrow Lake, four of which are resolved now. The latest BIOS and Windows Updates (more details on those later in this story) will restore Arrow Lake processors to their expected level of performance, according to Intel, while a new firmware will offer additional performance improvements. That firmware is expected to release in January, pushing beyond the baseline level of performance Intel expected out of Arrow Lake.
