*TIL that on April 29, 1945, one day before his death, Hitler had doubts about the cyanide capsules he had received. To verify the capsules' potency, Hitler ordered Dr. Werner Haase to test one on Blondi, Hitler's dog, who died as a result.*

*A key Volkswagen executive laid out a game plan to beat Tesla*

As Tesla TSLA gears up to potentially make a €25,000 (about $27,000) electric car at its Berlin gigafactory, industry leaders and contemporary car manufacturers have started to release cars on their own. Volkswagen VLKAF for instance, has gone back to the German meaning of its name, revealing plans for its own €25,000 electric car in March ahead of the reveal of a production version in 2025. Related: Tesla bulls say electric vehicle demand is soaring. Here's what's really happening With the American market being key to VW's success, the German marque has some plans to expand its electric presence, even in the face of electric car trends slowing down. At a conference held by Reuters in Detroit, VW Group of America senior vice president and head of strategy Reinhard Fischer said that VW is aiming to bring an electric vehicle for under $35,000 to the U.S. market in 3-4 years. “We are not scaling back plans for EVs in the U.S. market,” Fischer said. The plan for this specific U.S.-market focused EV is a very strategized one. According to Fischer, this specific vehicle will be produced in either the United States or in Mexico. Currently, Volkswagen operates plants in Puebla, Mexico, and in Chattanooga, Tenn., where it currently builds the ID.4 electric crossover.

*If you have covid STAY HOME*

I work at Starbucks and something we sell is a medicine ball tea. Its just mint tea and steamed lemonade. Helps with colds (supposedly, we legally cannot say it does) and i was working the drive thru and this lady ordered a medicine ball. Paid with cash so i had contact with her directly. After i hand her her tea she was like "im so sorry, i have covid so you should really wash your hands. I just really needed this." Not even wearing a fucking mask as i sat there leaning out the window and talking to her because were forced to have a conversation with every customer so they feel like our friends or whatever. I was pissed to say the least. Immediately told a manager and went to go wash my hands. Manager sanitized everything, including the cash in my drawer. But i still had spoken to her face to face for so long. I have asthma and a weak immune system from recent surgery. I've had covid twice and it was awful each time, the first time almost killed me and i was hospitalized 3 times. Im just now finally getting my taste back and im terrified of catching it again. Who tf does that?? Make your tea at home wtf is wrong with people. Edit to address some frequent comments, i wear a mask. Its old and i just realized its baggy so i ordered more on Amazon. Its not my only mask but its the only one i own thats within dress code for my job. They have a surprisingly strict dress code. The tea is not officially called a medicine ball. Its a honey citrus tea. We strongly discourage the use of the term medicine ball but thats what the popular name became. We do not advertise it for medicinal proposes, it has no official acknowledgements. When people order it we will only refer to it as honey citrus to try to encourage that term usage without directly correcting the customer (cus thats not friendly so were not allowed). Its a mint tea with lemonade and our honey blend syrup. submitted by /u/JessEGames777 to r/mildlyinfuriating [link] [comments]

*IRS announces 2024 tax brackets: What you need to know*

TheStreet's J.D. Durkin brings the latest business headlines from the floor of the New York Stock Exchange as markets close for trading Thursday, November 9. Full Video Transcript Below: J.D. DURKIN: I'm J.D. Durkin - reporting from the New York Stock Exchange. Stocks were in red close out today's session, snapping their eight-day winning streak. The Dow closed down 200 points, the Nasdaq closed nearly one percent, and the S&P closed eight tenths of a percent lower. This comes as markets continue to react to comments from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. He reiterated that more work would need to be done to bring inflation down to the 2% threshold, meaning higher for longer interest rates. Currently, inflation sits at 3.7. But it wasn't all doom and gloom… Powell did say that the central bank has been encouraged by the recent slowdown in economic activity. Meanwhile, the I-R-S has introduced new thresholds for each of the seven tax brackets, as well as standard deductions. Starting in 2024, each bracket will increase by about 5.4 percent for both those filing separately or as married couples. The increase comes a year after the I-R-S expanded its tax brackets by a historically large inflation adjustment of 7 percent. Set in 2017 by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, the seven federal income tax rates are 10%, 12%, 22%, 24%, 32%, 35%, and 37%. For 2024, the 37% top rate will apply to single filers with taxable income above $609,350, and to joint filers who earn $731,200. Also, the standard deduction will see an increase, as a reminder that's the specific dollar amount that reduces the amount of taxable income. The standard deduction for joint filers in 2024 will rise to $29,200, and single filers may claim $14,600. That'll do it for your daily briefing. From the New York Stock Exchange, I'm J.D. Durkin with TheStreet.

*Look: Motorcycle thieves busted by technology with a sly twist*

People are finding that the ability to use technology to track one's possessions has all kinds of important uses. Travelers are commonly using the devices to trace the whereabouts of their luggage, to name one.Related: Dollar Tree follows Walmart and Target in bold theft-prevention move Most commonly used for this purpose are Apple's AAPL AirTags, which are also frequently employed to trace smaller but no less important items such as keys, wallets and purses. But these instances where tracking of possessions prove necessary are due to accidental loss (in the event, for example, that an airline misplaces your bag) or because of one's own forgetfulness. Another reason to track belongings is to protect them from actions of more nefarious intent, such as theft. In one instance, a technology other than Apple's AirTags was put to the test when a motorcycle owner learned that carjackings were on the rise in his area.The successful recovery of a stolen motorcycle Ed Paredes, a motorcycle enthusiast from Lindenhurst, N.J., decided to try to protect his ride from being stolen. He began using Tile (a Bluetooth tracker from Life360) to protect his bike, Tile spokesperson Kristi Collura told TheStreet through email. Paredes concealed a Tile Pro on his 2007 Yamaha R6 YAMHY and activated the app's Anti-Theft Mode, a feature designed to protect high-value items from theft by letting users hide their Tiles from scans made by others, the spokesperson said. Not long after, his bike was stolen. Here is video of the theft, taken from a home security camera: With the Tile tracker activated, Paredes was able to work with local police to track the bike to its exact location and retrieve it using the Tile app. When police arrived at the location of Paredes' motorcycle, they also recovered five additional stolen motorcycles belonging to others, the spokesperson said. "Thanks to tile and its anti-theft mode, I recovered my stolen motorcycle," wrote Paredes on X (formerly Twitter). "Recovered five other stolen motorcycles and arrested the perp. I love this device!"@TheTileApp thanks to tile and its anti theft mode, I recovered my stolen motorcycle @lyndhurstnjpdrecoved 5 other stolen motorcycles and arrested the perp. I love this device! pic.twitter.com/VdJr5qEnQI— Edward Paredes (@JohnieWalkerBlu) September 29, 2023 How Tile Anti-Theft Mode works Following are some more details about the tracker product and its features, as the spokesperson explained them to TheStreet: Tile's Scan and Secure feature allows users to scan for and detect Tile trackers and Tile-enabled devices nearby. However, when you enable Tile's Anti-Theft Mode, your Tiles will be invisible in a Scan & Secure result. Why is this important? If a thief uses Scan and Secure, they cannot detect those Tiles on/in your tracked possessions, increasing the chances of you being able to recover your stolen item. When Anti-Theft Mode is activated, you can rest assured that your items are safe and secure from unwanted scans using the Scan & Secure feature. Furthermore, it allows users to keep track of their belongings without having to worry about potential thieves. To ensure personal safety and the proper use of Tile devices, there is a required ID verification and strict usage terms and conditions to access Anti-Theft Mode.
