No cure for brain rot

Available on each Delta flight. That includes 300 movies. A six-person team swaps 20% to 25% of the lineup every 30 days, so frequent fliers don’t get bored. Honestly, I don’t think airplane jokes are funny; they’re just really Boeing.

How far a lost 2-year-old boy walked to safety. He wandered from his home in rural Arizona and spent the night alone in mountain lion territory. After 16 tense hours, a rancher spotted him safe with his dog, Buford. Turns out, the shaggy companion guided him out of the wilderness. Imagine getting out-hiked by someone who can’t say or spell “hike.” Amazing.

That’s the critics’ score for Netflix’s new comedy series North of North. It follows a young Inuk mom who moves back to her small hometown after leaving her husband. It’s like Gilmore Girls meets snow meets 9,000 percent more gossip. The trailer looks pretty good.

Of internet traffic now comes from bots. You can thank AI tools like ChatGPT and Google Gemini for making it way easier to build them. The bad news? Hackers are using that same tech to pump out malicious bots that spam, scam and take down websites. Cybersecurity’s not optional anymore, folks. 

Per day with family. That’s part of a scientific formula for the perfect day (paywall link). You should also spend two hours with friends, two hours exercising and one hour eating and drinking. Work? Keep it under six hours, and screen time under one. It might not be realistic, but hey, life’s supposed to be about balance, right?

What Universal’s new theme park in Florida cost to build. This one’s a little different, with fewer roller coasters and more immersive worlds using augmented reality. When it opens in May, you’ll be able to see Harry Potter and How to Train Your Dragon brought to life. The kicker? Entry is $139 (paywall link). Uh, Daniel Radcliffe better greet me at the gate.

The price tag of the long-rumored iPhone Fold. That’s well above most foldable phones like the $1,899 Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6. And it’s almost triple the cost of a regular $799 iPhone 16. At those prices, it’s also going to fold your bank account, too. You have a couple of years to save up. 

The amount raised for an 81-year-old waitress. She told a customer she couldn’t afford to stop working, so a kind stranger posted the story on TikTok. Now Betty’s trading in the diner shift for well-earned rest. Her reaction? “I think I better get a financial adviser!” You and me both, Betty.
