Apple is now a bank It's offering a savings account earning an extremely competitive interest rate! Their Apple Card partner Goldman Sacks is also powering this savings account. It's tough to define these days what "Apple" is as a company - they make devices, offer cloud services, create TV shows, sell apps, and now offer a savings account. Goodbye Twitter's blue checkmarks After many many false starts, the blue checkmarks people had for being 'notable' have disappeared. The only way to get a blue checkmark now is to pay for Twitter Blue - which requires you to verify your phone number. Elon Musk tweeted that he is paying for some of the Twitter Blue accounts personally - like that of Lebron James. Others have a blue checkmark and want to get rid of it because they seem embarrassed for paying for Twitter. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
