Emojis = happier relationships

The amount of time teen drivers are actually watching the road. The rest? Spent on their phones. Most of that screen time isn’t for directions. It’s music, texting and social media. Terrifying when you realize that looking down for 5 seconds at 55 mph is like driving a football field with your eyes shut.

🔥 Fire stick buffering? Your device doesn’t actually turn off, it just goes to sleep. A quick restart might help performance issues. Go to Settings > My Fire TV (or Device & Software) and hit Restart. Or hold the Select and Play/Pause buttons on your remote for a few seconds to reboot it.

That’s how many Bitcoins just moved after 14 years. That same stash is worth over $8 billion today, shifting wallets without a single test transaction. If you’re wondering about the ROI, it’s 13,800,000%.

That’s all it took to spin up a fake Okta login page with generative AI.

That’s how much Figma could raise in its IPO, if Wall Street swipes right. That would match CoreWeave for biggest tech IPO of the year. Still a bit of a haircut, given that Adobe tried to buy it for $20 billion in 2022. Now it’s flaunting 91% margins like it’s back on the dating scene with a six-pack.

How long it took AI to figure out why some superbugs are immune to antibiotics. The shocker? A team of microbiologists spent 10 years getting to the same answer. The bot even came up with four new ideas they hadn’t considered. And get this: It couldn’t have copied them … their research wasn’t published.

Stop trolls on Instagram: You can filter out nasty comments. Go to Profile > Settings and activity > Hidden Words (under How others can interact with you). Tap Manage custom words and phrases to build a block list, then toggle on Hide comments. Anything with those words stays hidden from your followers.

That’s how many top news sites saw traffic drop after Google’s AI took the wheel.
