đ¶ Donât fall for it: Fake animal rescue videos are the new way scammers are making money on social media. They show kittens, puppies or monkeys in horrible situations. In reality, itâs these sickos putting the animals in danger. The accounts look like genuine organizations asking for legit donations. Report these posts to stop the engagement.
Corsicana, Texas is a small town an hour away from Dallas. They kicked off the oil boom in the South 130 years ago, turning their land into a money-making machine. Today, itâs the kind of dreary town you donât stop in because thereâs nothing memorable.
True or false: If your phone’s got all four reception bars lit up and itâs displaying the 5G symbol, you’ve got A+ service.
The answer? False. When you see â5G,â all it means is there are 5G connections nearby. Whether you’re on that network is another story. I know, eye roll. Cell service bars donât mean much, either.
Range in value of the watches in Tom Bradyâs collection. Theyâll be auctioned off by Sothebyâs. The white gold and diamond watch he wore during his Netflix special, âGreatest Roast of All Time,â is the hot ticket, and itâs expected to go for $400,000 to $800,000. Yeah, I hear you â my $30 Timex does the same thing.
For ChatGPT maker OpenAI. They just raised $6.6 billion in funding. Some of the biggest investors include Thrive Capital, Microsoft, Nvidia and SoftBank. This surprised me: OpenAI expects to lose $5 billion in 2024. They have a heck of a lot of Nvidia GPUs to buy to power their models.
Pink Floydâs payout for selling the rights to their recorded music, name and likeness. Sony now owns the British rock bandâs catalog. I smell a virtual concert coming to a city near you, where you can be comfortably numb. Btw, digital avatars of ABBA do concerts seven days a week in a custom-built London arena with a 3,000-seat capacity. They make $2,000,000 per week!
Found, thanks to a pair of AirPods. Thieves took the car in Greenwich, Connecticut. Luckily, the owner had left a pair of AirPods inside, and police tracked the stolen ride down at a gas station. They pulled over the suspects, who then fled the scene and were later captured. Dopes.
In e-bike injuries between 2019 and 2022. Scooter injuries were up 88% in that time, too. FYI, injuries from e-bikes are much more likely to lead to a hospital visit than other âmicro-mobilityâ devices like scooters and standard bikes. Just make sure your helmet is MIPS-rated to keep your noggin safe.

Clint Eastwoodâs age â and heâs still directing. The trailer just dropped for his newest film, âJuror #2.â Itâs a courtroom thriller. (I know, shocker.) Looks good! My goal is to be like Clint when Iâm 94.
DirecTV is looking to buy its rival. If the deal goes through, theyâd pay just $1 and take on Dishâs debt â about $9.75 billion. Why buy Dish? Separately, DirecTV and Dish are screwed. Together, they might be big enough to stand up to the streaming platforms.
Can be transferred to a friend or family member in Sweden. Folks will earn 80% of their salary by looking after their grandkids. Sweden was the first country to allow parental leave, so maybe this benefit will spread to other countries, too. It makes perfect sense!
