Maybe don’t look for a job on Facebook: An ad campaign is pushing “digital advertising” jobs. Click it, and you’ll end up with password-stealing Ov3r_Stealer malware on your machine. Stick with LinkedIn, folks.
Here’s something social media companies don’t want you to know: They’ve been making changes so they can make more money. One way is by amping up the number of notifications pushed out to users.

That’s from September 2023 to December 2023. They blame the “substantial price increase.” Ya think? It’s now double the original cost.
That’s with their carry-ons on a plane. How do we know? Finnair started weighing passengers. It’s not about your airport snacks or waistline. It’s to check if the plane is heavier in winter or summer.
🤳🏼 Ever had one of those “oops” moments taking pictures? You know, when your hand wobbles and your photo becomes as elusive as a Bigfoot sighting (or, in my case, my dog, Abby, doing something super cute)?
