The Fourth of July is coming in hot, and so is some absolutely bonkers traffic. And while fireworks light up the sky, accidents and road rage are lighting up our highways.

An Oklahoma City driver laid on his horn when an SUV started drifting in his lane. Things escalated quickly. The SUV driver swerved to block the honking driver, then pulled a gun and shot him.

You’ve got 13 seconds to undo, unplug, swipe or save your digital dignity. That’s your window to salvage your glitchy app, that accidental “Reply All” email or your phone freezing mid-sentence.

Less than 20 years

How long most film execs think the “traditional” cinema experience has left. With streaming taking over, the old model isn’t pulling in profits like it used to. My buddy just lost his job at a cinema that only shows Pixar films. He forgot to show Up.

Improve Netflix quality: If your stream looks pixelated, your video settings might be set too low. Log in to Netflix on desktop, click your profile > Account > Edit settings > Playback settings.

That’s how many “CDs’ worth of music” could be held on a stamp-sized hard drive. A promising new magnetic molecule that stores data solo can store three years of nonstop Pink Floyd, crammed tighter than your high school jeans. Don’t get too excited, it currently only works at -279°F.

Over $44 million

That’s how much has been pledged for a new UV printer, making it the most funded Kickstarter ever. The eufyMake E1 prints colorful designs on 300+ materials, including good ol’ fashioned rocks (yes, seriously). Here’s the link.

37.4 terabytes

That’s how much junk data one IP got smacked with, in 45 seconds. Taking the crown as the largest cyberattack in history, the DDoS attack was so heavy, it could’ve streamed 10,000 HD movies simultaneously. Somehow, Cloudflare’s clients stayed online.

$300 billion

The payday Ronald Wayne missed by leaving Apple too soon. Wayne bailed on his 10% stake 12 days in, for $800 in 1976 (paywall link), thinking he was dodging a financial bullet. The payout probably could buy him a small country today, or a few months’ rent in a San Francisco studio apartment.
