The best live TV streaming services to cut cable in 2026
Price hikes, media consolidation and contract disputes that turn channels dark have made live TV streaming services feel a lot more like cable. But, for most people it's still a better deal to cut the cord. For sports fans and news junkies, there's still no better option than one of the best live TV streaming services. We tried all the major players and currently recommend YouTube TV for most people. But we also spelled out just what you get from other providers (along with what we think about them) so you can decide for yourself.

Editor's note: YouTube TV will start offering genre-specific plans in early 2026. We don't have word on the pricing or specifics yet, but will update this guide when we do.

Steam and Valve's online games are partially down
Starting at around 1PM ET on December 24, Steam experienced an outage that impacted users ability to access the game store and play games online. Valve didn't acknowledge the outage publicly, but SteamDB's unofficial Steam Status page reported that the Steam Store, Steam Community, and Steam Web APIs were all offline.

DownDetector received over 6,000 outage reports around 1:15PM ET, and Steam is also inaccessible from Valve's mobile apps. The outage appears to be affecting APIs for Valve's online games, like Team Fortress 2, Dota 2 and Counterstrike 2, as well.

By around 4PM ET, Steam itself had begun to rebound, and as of 6PM ET, the platform had largely recovered, with the main PC, mobile and Mac clients broadly fully functional, but ocassionally erroring out. There are still parts of the service that are extremely sluggish and, according to SteamDB, many of Valve's online games are down or only partially functional.

Steam's last major outage was in October, when the store and online services were unavailable for an hour. Earlier in September, the launch of Hollow Knight: Silksong temporarily took down Steam, the Xbox Store and Nintendo's eShop due to how many people tried to download the game at the same time.

Update, December 24, 6PM ET: This story has been updated to note which Valve offerings are currently functional and when they recovered.

Track a Flight on Your iPhone
Flight tracker apps are a popular way to keep tabs on planes in the sky, because when you're preparing to fly or when someone you know is on board a flight, you can use them to check that things are still on schedule. But if you have an iPhone, you don't need to download and install a third-party app to track a flight - it's a handy built-in feature of the operating system.

Trump Media is merging with a Google-backed fusion energy company in a deal worth $6 billion
Trump media, the company behind the president's personal social media platform Truth Social, is inexplicably merging with a Google-backed fusion energy company called TAE Technologies. The deal is worth $6 billion, according to reporting by Financial Times.

Why is an entity known for publishing frenzied hot takes by the president at 3AM combining with a fusion energy company? Who the heck really knows, but a statement says the two organizations will join together to build the "world's first utility-scale fusion power plant." This would be huge, if true, as there are currently no operational commercial nuclear fusion power plants.
