There aren't many NPC side quests in Deathbound, at least not to our knowledge. But this Soulslike does have one pretty early on in the second area of the game, but it's relatively easy to miss. While Rafaili does speak to you as you walk by where he's staying in the Lower Districts, you don't have to stop and talk to him (he'll only talk to Iulia anyway), and he only goes into the specifics of what he wants if you talk to him multiple times.

In an exploration beyond your homes four walls, Sarah Ellison, designer and founder of ELLISON STUDIOS, is pioneering indoor comfort and style with her debut outdoor collection created exclusively in partnership with DWR North America.

Originally available in velvet and linen blends, the updated Muse Outdoor Sofa now features quick dry foam filling, outdoor grade fabric, and a durable galvanized frame. Similarly, the Alva Outdoor Lounge Chair has been reimagined with these features and a powder-coated steel frame to support its oversized cushions.Muse Outdoor SofaMuse Outdoor Sofa + Earth Outdoor Coffee TableThe Arch Outdoor Dining Chair, originally upholstered and foam-padded, has been remade in UV-resistant molded plastic for outdoor use. To round out the collection, theres the Earth Outdoor Coffee Table and the Earth Outdoor Cocktail Table, which are all constructed from concrete in replacement of the oak wood used in the indoor versions.Arch Outdoor Dining ChairEllison demonstrates restraint and a deep understanding that when expanding a collection, a simple material update can be more transformative than reinvention when the concept is already sculptural, functional, beautiful and lovable.Arch Outdoor Dining ChairArch Outdoor Dining ChairAlva Outdoor Lounge Chair, Alva Outdoor Sofa, Earth Outdoor Coffee TableAlva Outdoor Lounge Chair, Alva Outdoor Sofa, Earth Outdoor Coffee TableAlva Outdoor Lounge Chair + Earth Outdoor Coffee TableAlva Outdoor Lounge Chair + Earth Outdoor Coffee TableAlva Outdoor SofaTo check out the entire outdoor collection by ELLISON STUDIOS for DWR, visit dwr.com.Photography courtesy of ELLISON STUDIOS.This post contains affiliate links, so if you make a purchase from an affiliate link, we earn a commission.

If you are like me and appreciate a no-fuss coffee brewing experience, then you might like the convenience, simplicity, and speed of the Keurig K-Express Single Serve Coffee Maker, which is on sale for $62.99 (down from its original $89.99) on Amazon right now. Keurig K-Express Coffee Maker $62.99 at Amazon $89.99 Save $27.00 Get Deal Get Deal $62.99 at Amazon $89.99 Save $27.00 The K-Express has a pretty straightforward interface and looks easy to use. Pop in a K-Cup pod, choose from three sizes8, 10, or 12 ouncesand hit start. In a minute or two, the coffee is ready. One reviewer claimed it brews an eight-ounce cup in under a minutewhich sounds lovely for those groggy mornings when waiting feels like an eternity. Also, the machine is "brew your own ground coffee" compatible, if you prefer using reusable K-Cup pods. And, if you need an extra boost in the morning to take on the day, the K-Express' "strong brew" feature makes the coffee extra rich and bold.Of course, no product is perfect. This coffee maker has a 42-ounce water reservoir, which is smaller than some of the others out thereso you might need to refill it more often, especially if you drink multiple cups a day. It's a minor inconvenience but still manageable overall. Also, its mostly plastic build might not feel as premium as higher-end machines, but for the price, it makes sense.When compared against other models like the Keurig K-Elite or the Nespresso Vertuo, the K-Express holds its own pretty well. The K-Elite has a larger water reservoir and some fancy features like iced coffee settings, but it comes with a higher price tag. The K-Express, while more basic, provides all the essential features at a fraction of the cost. The Nespresso Vertuo, known for its espresso-like brews, uses pods that can be pricier and harder to find compared to the widely available K-Cups used in K-Express.

Streaming provider Roku is adding a new free channel for sports content on August 12. The ad-supported Roku Sports Channel will go live with content both owned and licensed by the company. No subscription or sign-up will be required to access the channel.The Roku Sports Channel will offer round-the-clock programming, such as live Major League Baseball games, live Formula E car races, The Rich Eisen Show and GMFB: Overtime. Partner programming on the channel will include classic boxing matches from Top Rank, combat sports from Swerve Sports and poker content from PokerGO.Sports viewership can be a notable revenue source for streaming services. The Disney-owned ESPN+ has a streaming subscription (and its price is going up). Max also has an add-on called the Bleacher Report (that's no longer free). And an upcoming service called Venu could aggregate lots of games and talk content under one umbrella (and it's expected to have a hefty price tag). Roku could stand out from the pack by taking the free, ad-supported streaming television route.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/entertainment/streaming/roku-is-launching-the-roku-sports-channel-on-august-12-130041121.html?src=rss

Report suggests (again) remote working is good for the soul, but the results could be more accurate in a study that better balances participants.

Elon Musk can't be held to account by anyone, the U.K.'s technology minister said, adding to criticisms of the billionaire from government officials.
