Sleep Number’s newest smart bed is designed to keep you cool at night. The ClimateCool smart bed, starting at $5,499, is the latest product from the company famous for its adjustable mattress firmness. In a press release, the company says the new mattress can keep your body at the optimal temperature with its “scientifically backed” cooling programs that could be of particular interest to people dealing with symptoms of menopause.

This is Sleep Number’s second smart bed that offers individual temperature control on either side of the bed. The Climate360, which launched in 2020, similarly actively draws heat away from your body to help you stay cool, but unlike the ClimateCool, it can also warm you up if you’re too chilly at night.

The two-day deal blitz, dubbed Prime Big Deal Days once again, will run from October 8th through the 9th, offering Prime subscribers a chance to save on all sorts of tech ahead of Black Friday. It’s still a couple of weeks away, but in typical fashion, Amazon has already rolled out a selection of early deals and discounts.

Admittedly, there aren’t that many gadgets on sale yet — and we’ll likely start to see better deals trickle in as we get closer to the event — but we’ve still managed to dig up a few solid deals, particularly for those already embedded in the Amazon ecosystem.

Tesla and CEO Elon Musk scored another win Tuesday when a federal judge dismissed a lawsuit accusing them of defrauding shareholders over the safety and effectiveness of the company’s driver-assist technology.

US District Judge Araceli Martinez-Olguin said that plaintiffs failed to prove that Musk acted with “deliberate recklessness” when he claimed that Tesla’s Autopilot and Full Self-Driving technology could drive safer than humans.

Many of Musk’s claims about self-driving capabilities amount to “corporate puffery,” or exaggerations about future products, the judge determined. Other claims could be categorized as “forward-looking statements,” in that they addressed future expectations for the technology. The case was dismissed…

We’ve officially turned the calendar to October, meaning spooky season is in full effect. That also means we’re a week away from Prime Big Deal Days, which starts on October 8th. There were already plenty of early Prime Day deals to consider, but now we’re seeing steep discounts on Amazon’s stick-style streaming devices. Right now, for instance, the latest Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K is going for just $24.99 ($25 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Target, while the speedier Fire TV Stick 4K Max is down to $34.99 ($25 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Target.

If you can spare another $10 in your budget, we’d recommend stepping up to the Fire TV Stick 4K Max. It’s a fair bit snappier than the base model thanks to an upgraded processor and support for…
