Do you want streaming services to replace your TikTok feed?
Recently, as part of its overarching UI redesign, Netflix announced a new, scrollable TikTok-style feed that will serve up algorithm-driven snippets of hit Netflix shows for users to watch endlessly via their mobile app. And they're hardly the first streamer to have this idea, as just a few weeks ago, Peacock introduced almost the exact same feature to their mobile app. Though I can kind of understand the idea behind creating a scrollable feed of content since platforms like not only TikTok, but also Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts are so popular. However, I'd argue that a lot of the secret sauce that makes these platforms what they are comes from user-generated content, which is not what Netflix or Peacock are putting in these feeds. What do you think? Is this a feature you can see yourself using?
How mad are you about GTA VI?
We got another full year of "we got ____ before GTA 6" content before we got GTA 6. Personally, I don't play. I've never played. But if there is ever an opportunity to pull that card out of my sleeve, you best bet I'm going to take it and not just run, but sprint with it. It's a joke 12 years running, and I personally don't think it ever gets old. We got dire wolves before GTA 6. We got aliens before GTA 6. We got a delay before GTA 6. But real talk, how mad are you that it's going to be another full year for the sake of 'polish?'
How serious do you take your passwords?
There was a time when convenience trumped security for me regarding passwords. I knew I needed to start using a password manager like 1Password and generate passwords that included lower-case/upper-case letters, numbers, and symbols, but I couldn't bring myself to redo all of my account passwords. At least not until a bunch of my streaming accounts got hacked, someone bought $2,000 worth of fast food with my McDonald's account, and roughly $500 of V-Bucks was purchased with my Xbox account -- that changed everything. Now, I don't have a single duplicate password, and 1Password handles all the generation. With World Password Week underway, I'm curious, how seriously do you take your passwords? Are you still using your pet's name? Maybe it's your birthday, and several random letters? Maybe you're like me and got burned one too many times, so you upped your security game. Let us know in the comments below.
