Not sure about the choice of getting The Unknown from Willy’s Chocolate Experience to do parkour and carry around the Olympic torch. #BBCOlympics

TIL the first time Dua Lipa heard the instrumental to Levitating, she just started singing along in Simlish.

This week we’re making Likes private for everyone to better protect your privacy.
– You will still be able to see posts you have liked (but others cannot).
– Like count and other metrics for your own posts will still show up under notifications.
– You will no longer see who liked someone else’s post.
– A post’s author can see who liked its posts.
Genuinely do not understand how my 18 month old iPhone 14 Pro Max can’t run Apple Intelligence, but my 4.5 year old MacBook Air will be able to. Unless Apple are just trying to get people to upgrade their phones more frequently again.
