June 30, 2022   It's June 30, 2022—Social Media Day. Normally, we'd tell you to do something to celebrate the day, but this time we're doing the opposite: don't use social media today. We promise it'll be good for you; you don't need to see those Tweets. ⏰ Today's Big Stories... in 30 Seconds Today We Watched, Read, and Listened to (so you don't have to): 393 articles, 11 podcasts, 15 press releases, 389 tweets, and 20 YouTube videos 1. Hyundai's Ioniq 6 Brings Futuristic Vibes to the Present Day Hyundai's making waves with its Ioniq EVs, and the trend continues with the Ioniq 6. Its design and interior lighting system make it look more like a concept car than a real one (that's a good thing), but its specs will be the true determining factor. We won't hear those until July, though. So stay tuned! 2. Now You Can Pay For Even More Snapchat If you want to get a little more out of Snapchat, there's a new Snapchat+ subscription tier for that. For $3.99, users can get access to exclusive app features and try new ones out before their public release. What are these features you ask? No idea, because Snapchat didn't explain that part. Yay!  3. Netflix and Waze Gamify Your Summer Roadtrip Netflix and Waze are gamifying driving via a tie-in game with the former's animated feature, The Sea Beast. When enabled in Waze, navigation maps turn into sea maps, complete with sea monsters, allies, and more surprises. Sounds neat. Just don't use this if you're still learning how to drive. 🦑 Go Deeper Apple is rumored to be making a new HomePod, but will it be any good? Charlie Sorrel thinks it could be, provided it has a decent price, worthwhile features, and hammers out some technical issues that plagued the original. 🎱 By the Numbers Is it possible to be too social? Data: we are social, Hootsuite Snapchat may not have as many users as Facebook, WhatsApp, or Instagram, but it must have enough people to think it can justify a $3.99 subscription tier. Look, Twitter's doing it with Twitter Blue, so really, any platform can do it if it really wants to (though we don't think they should). 🔥 Today's Hot Deal Laptops. You know 'em, you love 'em, and this Samsung 15.6-Inch Galaxy Book is $200 off at Best Buy right now, dropping it to a much easier to manage $549.99.

Don't Miss This Deal 🤓 Nerd Out "We'll take three." —Evan Killham, Editor You shouldn't ride a bike on train tracks, but Artist Heqi Wang has designed an electric motorcycle that railway maintenance workers can use to do that exact thing. It's very Tron-looking, and we want it. (Share on Twitter) 💎 You Know You Want It  Tiny, stylish, versatile Image: Insta360 Tired of GoPros? Maybe the Insta360 ONE RS and its interchangeable lenses are more your style. It does everything a GoPro can do, and it can do it in 4K HDR. Did we mention the 360-degree shooting? Yeah, it does that, too. And, personally? We think it looks cooler. And we all know looks are important. 🎮 Up-Down-A-B-Start Just chill out, man Hard to believe that Fortnite, a battle royale video game that's all about being the last one standing, could be a chill experience, but that's exactly what Fanbyte EIC Danielle Riendeau suggests.
