If you're reading this, you're looking for a little help playing Strands, the New York Times' elevated word-search game.

Strands requires the player to perform a twist on the classic word search. Words can be made from linked letters — up, down, left, right, or diagonal, but words can also change direction, resulting in quirky shapes and patterns. Every single letter in the grid will be part of an answer. There's always a theme linking every solution, along with the "spangram," a special, word or phrase that sums up that day's theme, and spans the entire grid horizontally or vertically.

By providing an opaque hint and not providing the word list, Strands creates a brain-teasing game that takes a little longer to play than its other games, like Wordle and Connections.

UPDATE: Sep. 16, 2024, 1:00 a.m. EDT This story has been updated with the latest information about Prime Big Deal Days 2024, which has officially been announced for October.

We can hardly believe it too: another Prime Day is coming. Just as we've seen the past few years, Amazon is bringing back Prime Big Deal Days, its October sale event that's essentially another Prime Day. This comes just three months after July's Prime Day, which brought some decent deals, but admittedly, didn't blow us away.

That being said, we're looking ahead to what a new event brings. Amazon just announced that Prime Big Deal Days will run from Oct. 8 through Oct. 9 this year, and we're keeping our eyes peeled in the meantime for the best deals ahead of the event. Because even when there isn't a big sale event, there are always live deals ready.

Best Early Prime Day deals Best Apple Deal Apple iPad, 9th generation, 10.2-inch (A13, 64GB, WiFi) $199 at Amazon (Save $130) Get Deal Best Amazon Echo Deal Amazon Echo Show 8 $104.99 at Amazon (Save $45) Get Deal Best headphone deal Beats Fit Pro $104.99 at Amazon (Save $40.95) Get Deal Best TV and streaming deal Amazon Fire Stick TV 4K $29.99 at Amazon (Save $20) Get Deal Best robot vacuum deal Eufy X10 Pro Omni Robot Vacuum $679.99 at Amazon (Save $120) Get Deal When is Amazon Prime day?

Back in August, Amazon announced that Prime Big Deal Days would be in October, and the mega-retailer just confirmed our suspicions that October Prime Day will fall on Oct. 8 and Oct. 9 in 2024. The event will run for a full 48 hours, and we're already seeing early deals popping up.

What kind of deals can you find this year?

If you're familiar with Prime Day, you know what to expect. Two days of glorious deals on almost every product imaginable including headphones, tablets, laptops, robot vacuums, and the list goes on and on. While these sale events sometimes have a lot of junk brands from third parties to avoid, there are also plenty of products from our favorite retailers including Apple, Beats, Eufy, and more.

Best Apple Deal Opens in a new window Credit: Apple Apple iPad, 9th generation, 10.2-inch (A13, 64GB, WiFi) $199.00 at Amazon
$329.00 Save $130.00 Get Deal Why we like it

The iPad 9th generation has dropped down to the spectacular price of $199, the cheapest price we've ever seen on this iPad and any iPad ever really. So while it isn't the latest generation, it is the most affordable.

This tablet comes with the A13 chip, a powerful processor that lets you stream, browse the internet, and even game. Normally $329, the sweet price of $199 saves you $130 for 40% off. The price has been hanging around for a few weeks now, but there's no guarantee it will last until Prime Big Deals Day.

Best Amazon Echo Deal Opens in a new window Credit: Amazon Amazon Echo Show 8 $104.99 at Amazon
$149.99 Save $45.00 Get Deal Why we like it

The Amazon Echo Show 8 works as a smart home hub that's more than just a speaker. With a four-inch by eight-inch screen, it displays music, recipes, and even video calls with its built-in camera. Plus, if you want to stream your favorite Prime Video content while cooking, the Echo Show can do that too on its HD display.

Now down to $104.99, you can find the Amazon Echo Show 8 for 30% off. That saves you $45 before Prime Day's dates are officially announced.

Best headphone deal Opens in a new window Credit: Beats Beats Fit Pro $159.00 at Amazon
$199.95 Save $40.95 Get Deal Why we like it

There are plenty of great headphones out there, and we've tested a lot of them. But when you're looking for something specific, like a set of headphones for working out, you've got to look to the particulars. The Beats Fit Pro are fantastic for working out, with easy touch controls to pause music or end calls. Plus a secure fit will keep them in your ears from start to finish of your workout.

These are fantastic earbuds, Mashable's Alex Perry even said they're better than AirPods. And now you can find them for $159, cheaper than the AirPods Pro with all the same features. That saves you $40.95 for 20% off.

Best TV and streaming deal Opens in a new window Credit: Amazon Amazon Fire Stick TV 4K $29.99 at Amazon
$49.99 Save $20.00 Get Deal Why we like it

Is the Amazon Fire Stick 4K the best streamer we've ever tested? No, Roku takes the cake there. However, it still works perfectly fine, and not to mention, it's hard to turn away from its delightful $30 price tag ahead of Prime Day. Having tested the Amazon Fire Stick TV, set-up is easy, as simple as plugging it into an HDMI port in the back of your TV.

While the home screen is a little clunky and slow, full of ads and promotion for Prime Video content, it is a dream for those who primarily stream on the site. Now it's down to $29.99, saving you $20 and 40% off.

Best robot vacuum deal Opens in a new window Credit: Eufy Eufy X10 Pro Omni Robot Vacuum $679.99 at Amazon
$799.99 Save $120.00 Get Deal Why we like it

Back in July, Mashable's Leah Stodart wrote about her favorite Prime Day deal on the Eufy X10 Pro Omni Robot Vacuum. While Roombas usually get the most love when it comes to robot vacuums, the Eufy is a powerful competitor especially the X10 Pro Omni, which works as a dual vacuum and mop.

Stodart notes that unlike the iRobot Roomba j9+, the X10 Pro Omni self-washes and dries its mopping pads, ensuring your floors are getting thoroughly scrubbed and cleaned. Ahead of Prime Day, it's down to $679.99, saving you $120 for 15% off.

Amazon's "October Prime Day" event is right around the corner.

Prime Big Deal Days will run for 48 hours from Tuesday, Oct. 8 through Wednesday, Oct. 9, the company announced today. (We were right.) The event will be exclusive to members of Amazon's Prime subscription service, just like its flagship summer Prime Day sale.

This marks the third time Amazon has held a fall Prime event that serves as the extra-early kickoff to its holiday shopping season ahead of Black Friday — and it appears its name is finally sticking. It was called the Prime Early Access Sale in 2022 and renamed to Prime Big Deal Days last year.

Other retailers like Best Buy, Target, and Walmart are expected to announce competing sales that coincide with Prime Big Deal Days in the coming weeks.

Not yet a Prime member? Don't want to commit to a paid subscription? You can still take advantage of Prime Big Deal Days discounts by signing up for a free 30-day trial of Prime. Just remember to cancel it before the trial automatically upgrades to a paid membership at the end of that month.

This story is developing.

If you're already antsy about your Black Friday haul this year, just know that you'll likely be able to snag a bunch of your Amazon stuff early. Yup, October Prime Day is back for another round.

The event, officially coined as Prime Big Deal Days, is Amazon's Prime-exclusive fall sale event that falls right in the sweet spot between actual Prime Day in July and Amazon's Black Friday event (which will kick off with no time to breathe after Big Deal Days, no doubt).

SEE ALSO: Walmart vs. Amazon: Which retail giant has the best deals?

But with Amazon offering decent deals every day of the week year-round anyway, it's easy to get your wires crossed when it comes to the legit kickoff. We've got you covered with the full schedule, plus any other details you might need to know.

What time does Prime Big Deal Days 2024 start?

Considering the fall event is commonly referred to as "October Prime Day" (maybe even more so than its actual name), you've probably gathered that it's in October. Amazon announced official dates on Monday, Sept. 16: Prime Big Deal Days 2024 will start on Tuesday, Oct. 8 and run through Wednesday, Oct. 9.

The deals run for two full days with new deals dropping as often as every five minutes throughout the event. While most deals that go live on the first day typically hang around through the second, some are time sensitive, like lightning deals that have been fully claimed or a viral item that has sold out.

When does Amazon Prime Day 2024 end?

The 48-hour Prime Big Deal Days shopping period officially closes at 3:01 a.m. ET (12:01 a.m. PT) on Oct. 9, but many deals tend to linger for days (weeks, even) after. But again, if you're in the market for a very specific hot ticket item, we recommend grabbing it as soon as you see it on sale.

What are the best Prime Day deals?

Seriously, what even goes on sale for Prime Day? Everything?

Like the OG Prime Day in July, Prime Big Deal Days is a great time to buy things like Apple products, robot vacuums, TVs, Ninja kitchen gadgets, headphones, and of course, Amazon's own devices like Echos and Fire tablets. But the mere presence of the discounts doesn't mean you should buy something you don't need just because it's on sale — it also doesn't mean every deal is worth it.

The NYT's latest daily word game has become a social media hit.

Connections can be played on both web browsers and mobile devices and require players to group four words that share something in common.

Each puzzle features 16 words and each grouping of words is split into four categories. These sets could comprise of anything from book titles, software, country names, etc. Even though multiple words will seem like they fit together, there's only one correct answer. If a player gets all four words in a set correct, those words are removed from the board. Guess wrong and it counts as a mistake—players get up to four mistakes until the game ends.

Players can also rearrange and shuffle the board to make spotting connections easier. Additionally, each group is color-coded with yellow being the easiest, followed by green, blue, and purple. Like Wordle, you can share the results with your friends on social media.

The chipmaker, which has been struggling, said on Monday that it obtained a new government grant, signed a contract with Amazon and would pause some initiatives.

Biotechnology company 23andMe has agreed to pay a $30 million settlement over a massive data breach that affected 6.9 million users.

Per Reuters, the genetic testing company filed a court document on Thursday detailing the settlement in a class action lawsuit in the Northern District of California. In the document, 23andMe proposed compensation for victims of the data breach.

SEE ALSO: 23andMe confirms how many people were affected by its data breach. It's not great news. What is the 23andMe settlement about?

In October 2023, 23andMe announced a data breach in which hackers had stolen users' personal records and genetic information. But it wasn't until December that year that the company revealed the extent of the damage. Around 14,000 users had their information stolen, but hackers leveraged 23andMe's relative-finder tool to access even more users, amounting to the 6.9 million affected.

The class-action lawsuit filed in San Francisco also alleged that 23andMe failed to properly notify users with Chinese and Ashkenazi Jewish heritage who were reportedly singled out for their information on the dark web.

So 23andMe is paying up, but that doesn't mean victims of the breach will get an even distribution of the $30 million. According to the court document, only $5 million is allocated towards compensating the users. Breaking this down further, users who filed for an "extraordinary claim," meaning they suffered financial fraud, are eligible for a $10,000 payout. Others, however, are only entitled to $100. The bulk of the settlement will be used to pay attorney fees.

Through the settlement, 23andMe will be required to boost its cybersecurity measures and provide a customized "Privacy & Medical Shield + Genetic Monitoring" to affected users in order to protect them from future fraud and identify theft issues. Once the settlement proposal is approved by the court, 23andMe will set up a dedicated class-action settlement website where users can file their individual claims.

So if you were one of millions of users affected, stay tuned for more information on how to get your (probably small) piece of the settlement.
