Some Kindles will let you display the cover of what you're reading on the lockscreen

Amazon has finally realized some people want to show off what they're reading at the moment. And so, some Kindle models can now show the book cover of the title you're reading as your ereader's lockscreen paper. It's rolling out globally, and most books, magazines, comics, and manga are supported. As long as you have a non-ad device, Display Cover works on 8th and 10th generation Kindle, 7th and 10th gen Paperwhite, 8th to 10th gen Oasis, and 7th gen Voyage. You can check out if yours is compatible here. The feature is accessible through the Kindle's settings menu. Toggle the "Show Cover" option to activate it.

Microsoft gets Kids Mode to help protect children on shared family PCs

You don't want to keep your kids from accessing information they can learn from, but you want to make sure they can browse safely. Enter the new Kids Mode on Microsoft Edge. The company has rolled out this free option on both Windows and macOS. It's accessible through the Edge profile option. And it's designed to lock kids into the Edge browser where they can only access approved sites (whether that be the 70 kid-friendly sites Microsoft selected or any other websites you added to that list).

When you enable Kids Mode, you'll have the option to choose between five to eight years old or nine to 12 years old. Both age ranges offer the highest level of Edge's tracking prevention and strict Bing SafeSearch, so it keeps out any adult text, images, and videos from search.
