🚨 Fake animal rescues on TikTok and Facebook: Scammers are editing real videos of older creators to make it look like they’re asking for help. One clip shows a man saying he has a story to tell, then it cuts to text: “you stayed 8 seconds so I don’t have to shut down my cat shelter.” Don’t click that donation link.

Robotaxis are silently (and sometimes awkwardly) roaming around Phoenix, San Francisco, Austin and wherever else humans dare let cars do improv in traffic. Waymo, Tesla and soon Amazon want you to ghost your Uber driver and jump headfirst into a future with no one behind the wheel.
“Kim, Lifelock has gotten so expensive. Do I even need it?” — Matt in Texas
I’ve been hearing this a lot, Matt. I agree, LifeLock is pricey. My bill was $239.88 a year. Now, I’m paying $62.64 a year, that’s a 74% savings! More about that later.
That’s how much heart attacks have dropped since 1970, thanks to better meds and emergency care. The twist?

That’s how much of Salesforce’s workload AI is already doing. Marc Benioff says bots are now answering customer questions and writing code like it’s no big deal. You know, just casually replacing a third of the org chart before lunch. The high-end estimate of Salesforce’s work done by AI? Nearly half (paywall link).Â
That’s how many new mozzies a single female mosquito can whip up in a puddle. One inch of water, one day, and boom, you’ve got a bloodthirsty startup. Time to dump those flowerpot saucers and treat your birdbath like each drop raises your tax bracket.
Americans living with type 1 diabetes who just got a sliver of hope. Ten people (out of 12 in trials) are now insulin-free thanks to a single infusion from a new drug. If you’re still waiting for your miracle, science is catching up.
That’s when the word “bro” first popped up, short for “brother.” Fast-forward to today, mix in a little social media brain rot, and Gen Alpha has taken it further with “bruh.” It now means just about anything: a greeting, joy, frustration, you name it. Versatile? Absolutely. Clear? Not even close.
That’s the retail price of a stolen Bobcat, and no, it’s not a house cat. These guys tried to snag it with a fake rental, a U-Haul and a $380 cash “deposit.” Too bad they didn’t know about the victim’s secret weapon: an Apple AirTag.
