🏈 Benched: Before you get all excited that Yahoo Sports is launching a free, ad-supported streaming channel about sports, know the fine print. They’re shows about the NFL, NBA, MLB and more. Nope, not the actual games. Let me tell you, there’s such a gap between men’s and women’s sports. The difference is nuts! 🥜

That’s how much prison time one disgruntled developer is getting for building an IT doomsday device. 55-year-old Davis Lu planted a self-destruct code at Eaton Corp. that locked out thousands of users the moment his name was deleted from the employee directory. There’s quiet quitting, and then there’s quiet ctrl + alt + deleting.

Touch screen terror: Volkswagen ditched real steering wheel buttons for chic haptic ones. Now, they’re getting sued because people say the buttons are too sensitive, like “crash your car while parking” sensitive, accelerating unintentionally after accidental brushes. VW quietly switched back to real buttons but not before several garages and hands got wrecked.

😓 Code of silence: This is so sad. Sophie, a 29-year-old policy analyst, died by suicide after months of troubling private chats (paywall link) with an AI “therapist.” It knew her plan. It didn’t tell anyone. There aren’t any mandatory reporting laws for bots, yet, but lawmakers are starting to ask whether your chatbot should call for help before it suggests journaling.

That’s how many American homes are too messy to charge an EV. We could unlock millions of home chargers if folks just cleaned out their garages. Instead, most are less “charging station” and more “where clutter goes to die,” hoarding broken printers, forgotten hobbies and a suspicious number of extension cords.

🕶️ Talk to the wrist: Meta’s new smart glasses, called Hypernova, are coming in September for about $800. They’ve got a tiny screen in the lens for things like texts, maps and photos, no phone in hand. You control it with a wristband that reads your gestures like magic. It’s all fun and games until you swipe left on your grandma.

Résumés meet ransomware: If you’ve ever applied through Workday, congrats, your name, phone and email are probably floating around scammer Slack right now. Never heard of Workday? ​​They have over 11,000 corporations as customers reaching 70 million people. Hackers tricked their way in with fake HR texts and calls. Brace for “we loved your résumé” spam from the dark web.

That’s what one unlucky soul lost in Bitcoin, just by trusting the wrong “support agent.” The victim handed over wallet credentials to someone pretending to help, and poof, 783 BTC vanished. My crypto newsletter is launching in mid-September. Sign up now! 

🔑 Flip off: The Flipper Zero may look harmless, but hackers can clone key fob signals and unlock cars from brands like Ford, Audi, Subaru, Hyundai and Kia in seconds. A digital underground is selling this stealthy car-hacking software. “Flipper Boys” might become the next-gen Kia Boys by 2026. This isn’t some Hollywood heist. It’s happening in real driveways. Pro tip: Wrap your fob in aluminum foil or stash it in a signal-blocking pouch to keep the bad guys out.
