How to wake up to a weather forecast on your iPhone's lock screen
A few weeks ago, a tweet about an iPhone keyboard hack went viral (I only knew about the 3D Touch version of this hack) and ever since, MacRumors have been churning out little tips and tricks that you may not know about to help you get the most out of your device.
There are probably too many options that all interact with each other here which can make it hard to find the balance you want and to discover these features with ease. You can set Do Not Disturb, Screen Time and now Bedtime, which is the key to the puzzle here.

As climate change worsens, America faces nuclear closures
Cheap natural gas and increasingly cheap renewables buoyed by government support are financially squeezing this plant and others, which aren't compensated for their carbon-free profile like wind and solar.

Tungrus and the Chicken from Hell
This video is absolutely hilarious. I love how the cats run in terror from the rooster, it's like something from a Pixar short.
Tungrus and the Chicken from Hell is a short film by Rishi Chandna about an Indian family who inexplicably have a pet rooster who terrorizes everyone in the apartment, including the cats. He shits on the floor, scratches up the furniture, wakes everyone with round-the-clock crowing.
The rooster is just an absolute nightmare and I have no idea why the family put up with it.

Adam Conover debunks misconceptions about Tesla & climate change
It's easy to forget the energy that goes into creating something that is supposed to help the world, like building a car. It's not even just the manufacturing process, but the mining of raw materials too.
I always remember Jeremy Clarkson talking about the Prius being uneconomically viable. While consumers are urged to drive cleaner cars, the onus has been put on 'us' to make a 'better' choice when perhaps it should be on manufacturers and for them to clean up their act.
