ChatGPT got better: OpenAI added a new feature called Connectors that lets the bot work with apps like Google Drive, Dropbox and SharePoint. You can now ask it to do things like “Summarize all the PDFs in my Dropbox,” and it’ll pull the info for you. The catch? It’s only available to Pro users at $200/month. Yikes.

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.
Don’t scream, at least not yet.
“Kim, I love my iPhone 16 but hate it’s made in China and apps track everything you do including your bowel movements. Is there a phone made in the USA that doesn’t track you?” — Paul in Tampa, Florida
Well, Paul, there’s exactly one, the $1,999 Liberty Phone from Purism. If the name makes you want to stand up and salute, you might sit right back down when I tell you the rest.
It’s finally here for $399, a year after it was announced. For $100 more, you get a back-and-green theme, a pre-paired Xbox controller, the Xbox Cloud Gaming app pre-installed, an Elite Strap and three months of Game Pass Ultimate.

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.
That’s how fast Jacob Misiorowski’s fastball has been clocked, in Triple-A. In the majors, he’s averaging just 99.7 mph, nearly 6 mph faster than the league average. That’s a massive gap in baseball speak. The Brewers rookie started his big-league career with 11 hitless innings. Basically, he’s playing MLB on rookie mode, with cheat codes.
The number of new Kuiper satellites Amazon just flung into orbit. These are batch two of a planned 3,236, and they’re not just for show. Bezos wants your internet to come from space, like Musk.

What it costs to ride Tesla’s new robotaxi in Austin, Texas. Right now, about 10 self-driving Model Ys are on the road, with a Tesla employee riding shotgun just in case. Elon says 1,000 more are coming in the next few months, with San Francisco and LA up next (paywall link). Good luck, traffic.
That’s how many ships a day are getting their GPS signals jammed near Iran’s coast (paywall link). It’s making navigation harder and riskier. It’s happening in the Strait of Hormuz, a narrow but essential route that handles about 20% of the world’s oil.
