Can someone tell me why Apple apps don’t show on the search function of iPhone? That’s literally the reason I don’t use Notes over Notion - I have no real order to my apps and defaulted years ago to the search function.

Literally couldn’t tell you where Notes is on my iPhone…

It feels like we could just double down on clean energy for a few years, ramp up subsidies etc and then enjoy the payoff with no more fossil fuels.

Shame we seem to be going backwards…

No surprise that Amazon are launching a Temu competitor considering that Temu has been the most downloaded app amongst 18-24 year olds this year.

Will Amazon's competitor have the same spammy click-bait feel or not is the question...

This is why I still believe the internet can be a great thing.

More Onion people please…
Hi everyone.

The Onion, with the help of the Sandy Hook families, has purchased InfoWars.

We are planning on making it a very funny, very stupid website.

We have retained the services of some Onion and Clickhole Hall of Famers to pull this off.

I can't wait to show you what we have cooked up.
The Onion Buys Alex Jones’s Infowars Out of Bankruptcy
The satirical news site planned to turn Infowars into a parody of itself, mocking “weird internet personalities” who peddle conspiracy theories and health supplements.
