  • AirTags Hit Record Low Price on Amazon: 4-Pack Now $64, Over 100K Units Sold
    October 24, 2025, 11:36 PM EDT. AirTags are selling for pennies as Amazon discounts the 4-pack to $64, about $16 per tag.

If an item goes missing outside your home, location data can be relayed by nearby Apple devices via a secure, anonymous network. Features like Lost Mode and engravable NFC-based contact info boost recoverability. Setup is quick: peel, press against an iPhone, and you're ready to track. The deal turns everyday items into trackable assets at mass-market prices.
  • AI-generated monkey hoax sparks Newark police search, officials say likely AI-generated
    October 24, 2025, 11:34 PM EDT. Viral images purporting wild monkeys in Newark sparked a citywide scare as police searched the Georgia King Village complex. Newark Public Safety Director Emanuel Miranda said the photos were likely AI-generated and the incident appears to be a hoax. No monkeys were found by officers or animal control, and the searches were later deemed unnecessary. Officials urged caution about AI-generated misinformation and noted the episode follows a broader social-media trend, the AI Homeless Man Prank. The incident underscores how AI imagery can waste resources and distract from real emergencies.
  • New analysis questions the fine print in Elon Musk's $878B Tesla pay deal
    October 24, 2025, 11:22 PM EDT. A Reuters-backed analysis challenges Tesla's claim that Musk's proposed compensation up to $878 billion would only pay out if stringent milestones are met. The board's plan, announced Sept, could award Musk billions even if targets fall short, notably if Tesla sells about 1.2 million cars/year over the next decade and if stock gains lag behind the market. The analyst quoted calls the clause on "Mars-shot milestones" vague, with a clause about developing 1 million robots-likely the Optimus project-open to broad interpretation. The report notes weakness in Tesla's EV momentum, a pivot toward Autonomous and robotics, and potential impacts on vehicle prices. Still, the piece notes EVs remain environmentally friendly overall.
