Back on the road: Ewan’s long ride continues 🏍️

After circling the globe, Africa, and South America, Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman are back — and this time, no electric Harleys.
Long Way Home, the fourth chapter in their beloved travel series, hits Apple TV+ on May 9. They'll ride vintage bikes through 15 European countries, cross under the Channel, and finally head home to the UK.

No Jedi robes this time — just open roads and real gas.

Meta, censorship & China: just another Tuesday 🤫🤖💰

Turns out, Facebook was allegedly moonlighting as China’s censorship tech provider — complete with kill-switches for entire regions (hi, Hong Kong), according to ex-employee Sara Wynn-Williams in Senate testimony.

She claims Meta worked “hand in hand with the CCP” to test moderation tools designed to shut down service during sensitive times (like the Tiananmen anniversary). You know, casual Big Brother stuff.
Then there’s Project Aldrin — an $18B hush-hush plan to buddy up with Chinese infra orgs, while publicly claiming they weren’t even operating in China. Add in whispers of AI model sharing with Chinese rivals, and suddenly the "race to AGI" feels like a bit of a sell-off.
Meta says it’s all nonsense and outdated — they “don’t operate in China.” But Senate ain’t buying it.
If your AI helps censors and spies more than creators and users — maybe it’s time to debug your ethics.

Apple might be folding (in a good way) 🍏📖📱

According to analyst Jeff Pu, foldable Apple devices are no longer sci-fi. The company’s reportedly prepping: • An 18.8" iPad Fold — running macOS, making it basically a MacBook in disguise • A 7.8" iPhone Fold — tiny, bendy, and made to flex on your Galaxy friends.
Mass production could kick off in Q4 2026, but Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman says “slow down” — iPad maybe in 2028, iPhone likely a bit sooner.
So is Apple finally joining the foldable party? Or just teasing us again?
Only time (and Tim) will tell.

ChatGPT got a memory boost — and now it knows you way too well
🧠💡💬
Guess what, folks? ChatGPT's memory just leveled up. No more half-baked recall — now the bot remembers full conversations, not just random crumbs.
Here’s the tea: 🔹 It learns your interests and tone, from brilliant takes to chaotic rants 🔹 It adapts to what you do — student? coder? writer? It’s got you. 🔹 And yes, after thousands of messages, it might know you better than your mom (but won’t ask why you never call).

Rolling out now for Plus and Pro users. So yeah — it remembers.

David Fincher just dropped an Xbox ad — and it SLAPS
🐀➡️🧍‍♂️ “Awaken the Human Within”
Yup, that David Fincher — Fight Club, Mindhunter, all that — directed an ad for Xbox. And it’s dark, weird, and absolutely brilliant.
The world? Full of office-working, subway-riding humanoid rats. But the few who play Xbox — even on phones and handhelds — are still human.
The main dude? Turns back into a man the moment he boots up an Xbox Series X with a Samsung OLED.
Tagline? “Awaken the Human Within” And damn… it works.

Apple just shipped 600 tons of iPhones to dodge Trump’s tariff tantrum 📦📱🚛

While Trump was busy cranking import tariffs up to 125%, Apple pulled off a classic “not today, Satan” move — airlifting 1.5 million iPhones from India to the U.S., sidestepping the whole mess like a boss.

Thanks to a smooth little “green customs corridor,” Apple got their phones through in 6 hours (normally takes 30). Why? Because letting iPhones hit $2300 a pop wasn’t in the vibe forecast.
India’s now more than just yoga and Bollywood — it’s officially Apple’s backup manufacturing hero.

Moral of the story? If tariffs go nuclear, Tim Cook goes logistics ninja.

Holy trade war, Batman! 💥
China just slapped a brutal 125% tariff on ALL U.S. goods
The trade drama’s hitting Final Boss mode — China officially hikes tariffs on American imports to a wild 125%.
Razer’s already pulled pre-orders, other companies are scrambling to avoid cashflow chaos, and the global supply chain just cracked another energy drink.
Cheap gadgets? Toast. Car parts? Delayed. This isn't just a trade war — it's a full-on economic street fight.

Watch closely, hold your crypto tight. The world’s getting spicy.

🌚 Pain, brother…

The owner of CryptoPunk #3100 — one of the priciest NFTs ever — just sold it with a $10 million loss.
Let’s all breathe for a second: bought at $16M, sold for $6M. In ETH it’s not that brutal — from 4500 ETH down to 4000. But who’s counting, right?
Ethereum dipped, and with it sank all dreams of Lambos, yachts, and that sweet “never work again” life.

Now this Punk isn’t a flex — he’s a monument to investor pain. The moral? Even pixelated aliens can suck you into a financial black hole. Even if you thought you were holding on to eternity.

🍏 Apple faces growing lawsuits over delayed Apple Intelligence

Apple is getting hit with yet another class action, this time from both the U.S. and Canada — all because Apple Intelligence still isn’t here.
The key issue? Apple advertised its AI features like they were ready to go, and now plaintiffs say they wouldn’t have bought the iPhone 16 had they known it was mostly marketing smoke.
A similar lawsuit was filed in California last month. Experts say all these cases may be combined to strengthen the case against Apple.

As a reminder, Apple delayed the AI rollout for Siri due to internal development issues. And for now, Siri still isn’t quite the genius we were promised.
