SURVEYS, STUDIES & SUCH: Brought to you by BetterCreditCards.com

By now, everyone knows that the internet can be a dangerous place. But apparently many of us didn’t clue in to that fact soon enough. A new study has revealed that literally BILLIONS of people have been the target of cybercriminals at some point. The survey found that half of all respondents have fallen victim to a cyberattack or scam. Of 20,000 adults from around the world, 45% said that their personal data, like banking or email info, has been compromised by a hacking attempt or scam. And even though most agree that scams have become more sophisticated due to AI, a horrifyingly low 39% of people said that they believe simply using a username and password is the most secure way to protect your accounts.

Some companies these days are expanding their employee benefits coverage to include things like elder care and paid time off for the death of a pet, in an effort at increasing worker loyalty, retention and ultimately improving the bottom line. Some firms are also offering work perks such as coverage for expenses involved in fertility and family planning, financial and emotional support, mental health coverage, climate change and environmental support, and more. According to the 2024 US Benefits Trend Report, 59% of workers these days are looking for nutrition and exercise programs, 58% want mental fitness programs, and 44% are interested in caregiving for elderly or ill family members.

BIG SCREEN-LITTLE SCREEN: Brought to you by RadioSavings.com

Andrew Garfield says he’d play ‘’Spider-Man’ again — under a few conditions. He said to Esquire that he’d “100% come back if it was the right thing…if there’s a great concept or something that hasn’t been done before that’s unique and odd and exciting and that you can sink your teeth into.” Garfield, who played the superhero, and his alter-ego ‘Peter Parker’ in 2012’s “The Amazing Spider-Man”, and returned for 2 sequels, said “I love that character, and it brings joy.”

Although details of “Yellowstone’s” ending are being kept top secret, there is one part of the final episodes that is public knowledge: Kevin Costner will not reprise his role of family patriarch ‘John Dutton’. What exactly happens to him is unclear, but according to star Kelly Reilly, who plays ‘Beth’, Costner’s absence didn’t change anything about the ending that creator Taylor Sheridan had been working toward from day one. Reilly told EW: “The absence was part of the ending…that was already written into the…story. It was always going to happen, it just happened a little bit differently.” Yellowstone premieres its final season on Nov. 10.

Rugrats” is returning to the big screen. The beloved 1990s animated series from Nickelodeon is getting the live-action treatment from Paramount, with “Pitch Perfect” director Jason Moore on board to direct the new project. He’ll be working from a script by “Saturday Night Live” regular Mikey Day and Streeter Seidell. Paramount describes the feature as a “a live-action CG hybrid,” based on the original series. That means yes, the babies will be CGI. The series has already inspired a number of theatrical films, including 1998’s “The Rugrats Movie,” 2000’s “Rugrats in Paris” and 2003’s “Rugrats Go Wild.”

SCOOP OF THE DAY: Brought to you by BetterCreditCards.com

If a giant mirror was placed 10 light years away from Earth, and you looked at it through a telescope, you’d theoretically see 20 years into the past.

Could your cell phone some day be able to transmit smells, similar to how today’s models can wirelessly provide you with audio and video? Scientists are working on it, if you can believe it. Well, the phone wouldn’t actually transmit scent particles. The process of digital scent technology would use a small number of cartridges, each containing a specific scent. Just like how pixels on your phone’s screen mix 3 colors to create images, these scent cartridges could mix to create different smells. The plan is that when you receive a digital scent code, your phone could mix tiny amounts of the different scents from the cartridges to create the desired smell. This mix would then be released through a small vent on the phone, allowing you to smell it. No word at this point how far along researchers have come in their quest to allow your friends to send you the smell of the delicious chocolate chip cookies they are baking – or something considerably less appetizing!

WEIRD NEWS: Brought to you by WeirdGiftOfTheDay.com

Moo Deng, the viral baby pigmy hippo, now has her own crypto, because, of COURSE she does. Given the sudden popularity of the Thai national treasure whose name roughly translates as “bouncy pork,” it was only a matter of time before someone turned her into a digital asset. And it’s also no surprise Moo Deng Coin has shot up 1,400% since it was created less than 3 weeks ago. But memecoins, no matter how cute, are not a smart financial play, according to experts. Like any fun internet sensation, memecoins tend to have a short lifespan, soaring as they inspire FOMO in crypto traders – then tanking shortly after. LINK: https://tinyurl.com/ye2yuu4n

OVERRATED FOODS:

A recent Reddit thread ask users “What is the most overrated food you’re convinced people are just pretending to enjoy?” Here are the best of the 24,000 answers…

→ “Kale. Let’s be honest, it tastes like crunchy sadness.”

→ “Caviar — pretty sure people are just paying for the bragging rights, not the taste.”

→ “Those giant milkshakes with absurd toppings like a slice of cake, jumbo swirly lollipops, and cotton candy/fairy floss.”

→ “Lobster. Anything that has to be dunked/drenched in butter to enjoy can’t be all that good.”

→ “Burgers with 5 different sauces and 20 different ingredients. People are eating mush and telling themselves it’s good.” (This person is SO wrong!)

→ “Matcha. Why yes, I’ll have a cup of hot grass clippings!”

→”Avocado. It tastes like how I imagined the color green would taste.”

→ “Licorice. Fruit-flavored window sealant.”

→ “Olives: the Devil’s Grapes. Gross things.”

→ “Raw oysters for me. So expensive, maybe gonna make you seriously sick.”

→ “Turkey, without a doubt. Disgusting.” (Whaaaa?)

→ “Sea cucumber. The texture is gross, the aftertaste is gross, and the appearance looks like a hippo’s slimy dung after consuming a field of algae. (Someone has a very strong opinion on this…!)

→ “Blue cheese. Smells and tastes like vomit to me.” (Not wrong!)
