Conspiracy theories spreading online: One with biblical ties says the April 8 eclipse passes over eight towns named Nineveh and the end is here. (Ahem, it’s only two towns.) Now, the eclipse also goes over Santa Claus, Indiana; Ding Dong, Texas; and Booger Hole, West Virginia. Nope, Christmas isn’t coming early with free donuts and boogers.
What do you see once in a year, twice in a week but only twice in forever?
👁️ Don’t get burned: Fake solar-safe glasses are for sale online. Use the wrong ones, and you can permanently damage your eyes. If you bought some, look for ISO 12312-2 on the frames. This pair is safe, btw.

Kia is recalling 430,000 Tellurides: The recall covers all 2020 through 2023 models and some 2024 vehicles. There’s a huge problem with the driveshaft that could let the SUVs spontaneously roll away. If that happens, you’ll have no-Kia.
AT&T’s massive breach: They finally confirmed a data breach affecting 73 million current and former customers … after pointing fingers and denying it happened. AT&T has reset 7.6 million passcodes and will reach out if your account was breached. Reset your passcode now for good measure.
This is how I roll: American Airlines is the first airline to roll out self-driving wheelchairs, starting with airports in Los Angeles and Miami. No more airport employees carting you to your flight. Just sit down, punch in your gate on the screen, and you’re off, luggage and all. It’s even got cameras and obstacle sensors, and it dings to tell people to get out of the way.
