Fake your location to get the lowest prices: A friend of mine in Phoenix booked a rental car in the U.K. It was $955. I told her to try this trick. She used her VPN to change her location to the U.K. and the same car for the same dates was $322. Just another reason why you need ExpressVPN on all your devices.

No other YouTuber has ever done this before. In other news, hackers stole 193 million Ticketmaster barcodes, and Airbnb has a hidden-cam problem. Plus, NASA’s heat maps show ground temperatures reaching 160 degrees in Phoenix.
Say “No way” to Waymo: A Phoenix police officer pulled over a self-driving Waymo veering into oncoming traffic. Waymo says the vehicle was confused by the construction signs. Nobody got hurt. Check out the video here.
Plan now for the summer solstice
It might feel like summer in Phoenix (and many other places), but it’s not official until June 21. There’s no single day with the earliest sunrise and latest sunset. It varies depending on where you live.
You don’t need to go all the way to Sweden for “Midsommar.” (Yes, like that creepy movie.) Check out these solstice celebrations … and yeah, it’s not too late to catch a flight.

A Chilean gang tried to do the same thing to me, and the Phoenix SWAT team even stormed my house! Worth the watch, promise.

Solar storm tech issues: There weren’t too many disruptions from the recent global light show, but Starlink’s satellites had a few glitches. Interestingly, GPS navigation systems used by John Deere tractors and other brands to create ultra-tight, straight lines for planting were knocked out — and during a peak planting season. I was so bummed I saw nothing in the skies over Phoenix.
Too hot to handle: Temps are in the 90s in Phoenix, which reminds me: Shade is your smartphone’s BFF. Put your phone in the shade if you’re outside, or leave it in a shaded part of your car, not on the sunny passenger’s seat.
