Is the size of the world’s largest snake. The recently discovered reptile is as thick as a car tire, has a human-sized head and is an actual nightmare for me. Don’t hiss me off.

So, you accidentally booked the wrong nights for an upcoming hotel reservation. Hey, it happens.
You do a quick Google search to find the hotel’s phone number, call the one at the top, and a representative answers right away. You give them your info, read off your card number, and then they hang up. Something feels … off. My friend, you may have been scammed.
What inspired the iconic ding sound that welcomes you when booting up a Mac computer? Was it a … A.) Tibetan singing bowl, B.) Beatles’ song, C.) Cash register opening or D.) Classical piano key note?
Forget hacking networks: Now, cybercriminals are using genuine logins stolen from real people. Info-theft malware is already up 266% in 2024.

Use an Apple Watch? The brand-new ones lost the oxygen-sensor tech while Apple battles a lawsuit. Yup, a small company says Apple stole its tech. Older models still have the O2 sensors, so they’re fetching more money than ever. Good time to sell yours if it’s just sitting around.
Let’s keep wildlife wild: Research shows even educational snaps of wildlife fuel illegal animal trafficking and dangerous human-wildlife encounters. So, uh, it’s best to avoid the lion selfie unless you’re aiming for a Darwin Award.
🤦♂️ No one’s laughing: A 23-year-old cop in Montgomery, Alabama, thought it’d be amusing to “swat” another department. Christopher Eugene Sanspree Jr. used an app to report phony shootings and break-ins on duty because he “thought it was funny.” He’s facing six misdemeanor charges with a $6,000 bond. They should bill this idiot for the lost time and resources.
Court of the future: The NBA rolled out a flashy, new toy recently at the All-Star Weekend in Indianapolis — an LED glass basketball court that switched up its looks on the fly. Think live stats, replays and animations right under the players’ feet. It didn’t steal the spotlight from the slam dunks, but I’m sure ads will follow soon.
