It's December 16, 2020. It's National Chocolate Covered Anything Day! There's just so many things you can do with that one; we'll let you figure out what to cover in chocolate. ⏰ Today's Big Stories... in 30 Seconds Today We Watched, Read, and Listened to (so you don't have to): 582 articles, 13 podcasts, 9 press releases, 612 tweets, and 18 YouTube videos 1. TikTok Focuses New Policies on User Well-Being Social media can be a garbage fire of bullying, trolling, and misinformation, which never makes anyone feel good. TikTok has refreshed its policies and features around harassment, violence, self-harm, and dangerous acts in videos. Taking care of its users seems like a pretty good idea, to be honest. 2. Secure Messaging App Signal Launches Group Video Calls Signal allows for encrypted text, audio, and video conversations, and it's now added group videos to the list. Now you can get together with friends and family without worrying about anyone being able to hack into your chats. 3. Apple AirPods Max Available for Same Day Pickup The hot new high-end headphones from Apple have lengthy shipping times (12 - 14 weeks), but are just now starting to show up for same-day pickup in select Apple retail stores. You can get your own via Apple's web or retail app. 🦑 Go Deeper Apple Fitness+ launched this week, and our own Charlie Sorrel says it could be your next favorite gym replacement for these pandemic-affected times. 🎱 By the Numbers Security over convenience? Data: Messenger People The only encrypted, secure app in the graph above is WhatsApp, which is owned by Facebook. That feature could be a big reason why WhatsApp is so popular, of course. 🔥 Today's Hot Deal
The 55-inch LG CX55 is one of the best OLED TVs on the market and you can get it now for $200 off the regular price of $1,700. 🤓 Nerd Out "We'll go far in those cars." -SE Slack, Strategy Director Battery maker QuantumScape has claimed that it has cracked the code on lithium-metal batteries that could double the range of electric cars. Sounds great, though some experts think it will be a while before we see them on the road. (Share on Twitter) 💎 You Know You Want It Gonna need a bigger boat wall. Image: Samsung How can you NOT want a 110-inch wall-sized TV from Samsung? It's only available as a pre-sale in Korea right now, but wow do we want one in our house. Sure, we'd need a much bigger house (and paycheck), but the sheer size of this thing has us drooling. 🚀 Facing the Future Hydration is essential Clean drinking water is a huge problem for many parts of the world, but these bamboo-constructed water collectors could be part of the answer. The towers can produce up to 25 gallons of clean water per day without using any electricity, making them a boon for the future of poverty-stricken areas. 🗞 Extra! Extra!
