Storm streamers are taking over

💸 Thrift of the year: An Arkansas man spotted a $120 coffee table on Facebook Marketplace and decided to do a reverse image search. Turns out, it was made by an Italian company in the 1990s and listed on auction sites for up to $8,250. It’s now in his living room, glued to the floor.

That’s all it’ll take to get from New York to Paris. Boom Supersonic promises to shave your red-eye down to a power nap (paywall link). If they pull it off, jet lag and sad airplane chicken could finally be optional. Just don’t ask when (spoiler: not before 2029).

🧗‍♂️ Cliffhanger stupidity: Two Seattle tourists got stuck on a San Francisco cliff trying to retrieve a dropped phone. Fire teams spent over an hour rescuing them with ropes and helmets. Nobody died, but they did get handed a $300 “what were you thinking?” fine. PSA: Going off-trail is a Darwin test. 

Android 16 is officially rolling out: Only for Pixel phones. But the biggest glow-up, the visual facelift of the Material 3 Expressive design, is delayed until later this year. So yes, security’s tighter. Battery’s better. But your lock screen still looks like 2021. 

🚖 Tesla Robotaxis are coming: If you’re in Austin, you might see them on June 22. Musk says the launch is “tentative,” and it’ll start small with just 10 to 20 Model Ys. They’re being extra careful, too, with employees watching remotely and geofencing to keep cars within certain areas. Fingers crossed.

Think before you “unsubscribe”: That little link at the bottom of emails might clean up your inbox or land you on a fake site. Scammers use it to steal passwords or install malware (paywall link). Play it safe: Hit the unsubscribe button at the top, like in Gmail, or mark it as spam and delete.

🕳️ Fake links, real damage: Watch out. Cyber creeps are shoving malware-laced links into cloned Google Calendar invites and Meet links. Fix? Turn on “Known Senders” in Calendar and trust no “tech support” that sounds like it’s from a gas station payphone.

That’s how many times Tom Cruise jumped out of a helicopter with his parachute on fire. Why? Because regular Mission: Impossible movie skydiving is for interns. To break a Guinness World Record, he lit his chute, bailed midair and deployed a backup like it was just another Tuesday.
