Stop Overpaying, Amazon Crushes Samsung 990 PRO SSD Prices by 41% Before Tariffs Hit
As new tariffs on Asian imports are set to take effect pretty soon, prices on premium electronics – including SSDs imported from Asia – are set to skyrocket in the US. This makes the current price crop of Samsung's 990 PRO internal SSDs (our favorite on the market) on Amazon a great chance to buy at a reasonable price before prices potentially double over the course of the next few months.
Right now, the 1TB model is available for just $99 which is a steep 38% discount from its regular price of $159, while the 4TB version has dropped to $302 from $464. The 2TB model is also on sale for $164, down 34% from $249. If you've been considering upgrading your PC, laptop, or PlayStation storage, it's the best time to avoid the tariffs hike. And these are among the lowest prices ever for all models.

Oakland yoga studio part of rise in inclusive, nonbinary-owned businesses
In the heart of Oakland, there is a yoga studio where flexibility means more than just touching your toes — It's a way of life. Marlo Miller — who uses she/they pronouns — is the owner of Banana Yoga, a place where people like her can do something rare these days: breathe. "I think it happened organically. I, myself, am nonbinary, and they say your vibe attracts your tribe, and I just wanted to have those folks close to me," said Miller. Most of the instructors and clientele at Banana Yoga identify as gender expansive — an umbrella term for those who don't fit neatly into the male or female box. One of them is Deanalis Resto, a student whose pronouns are they, he, and she. "I know that I can be me here," Resto said. And they're not alone. A 2022 Pew Research study found that 5.1% of U.S. adults under 30 say their gender differs from their sex assigned at birth. From gender-neutral fashion to nonbinary salons and yoga studios, what was once overlooked is fast becoming a market with momentum. Rex Wilde, a transgender nonbinary consultant, said business is booming. "We're only going to be seeing more small businesses that open up specifically catering to this market," Wilde said, noting that since 2021, the number of certified transgender and nonbinary-owned businesses has more than doubled. For Miller, the value of places like Banana Yoga goes far beyond the bottom line. "If we focus on members of our community who need the most help, everyone else will benefit," she said.
