Hyundai and Kia agree to $200 million settlement over TikTok car theft challenge
Hyundai and Kia agreed to a $200 million settlement stemming from a class-action lawsuit related to a rash of car thefts inspired by a viral social media challenge on TikTok.
The so-called “Kia Challenge” on the social media platform has led to hundreds of car thefts nationwide, including at least 14 reported crashes and eight fatalities, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Thieves known as “the Kia Boyz” would post instructional videos on YouTube and TikTok about how to bypass the vehicles’ security system using tools as simple as a USB cable.
The thefts are reportedly easy to pull off because many Hyundai and Kia vehicles manufactured between 2015-2019 lack electronic immobilizers that prevent would-be…

Ubuntu Flavors Agree to Stop Using Flatpak
While Ubuntu Linux hasn’t provided Flatpak support out-of-the-box due to their preference of using their own Snap app packaging/distribution format, Ubuntu flavors/spins have to this point been able to pre-install Flatpak support if they desired. However, for the 23.04 “Lunar Lobster” cycle and moving forward, Ubuntu flavors will no longer be permitted to install Flatpak packages by default.
Flatpak support for Ubuntu and its flavors will remain available in the Ubuntu archive so those wanting to install Flatpak support can easily do so post-install.
This change going into effect with the 23.04 cycle is making it so no Ubuntu flavors will have Flatpak support installed by default / out-of-the-box: they are supposed to center around Debian packages and Snaps for their out-of-the-box packaging support to align with Ubuntu.
From the blog OMG Ubuntu:
Ubuntu developers have agreed to stop shipping Flatpak, preinstalled Flatpak apps, and any plugins needed to install Flatpak apps through a GUI software tool in the default package set across all eight of Ubuntu’s official flavors, as of the upcoming Ubuntu 23.04 release.
Ubuntu says the decision will ‘improve the out-of-the-box Ubuntu experience’ for new users by making it clearer about what an “Ubuntu experience” is….
As far as Ubuntu is concerned, only deb and snap software is intrinsic to the ‘Ubuntu experience’, and that experience now needs to be offered everywhere. Flavor leads (apparently) agree, and have all agreed to mirror regular Ubuntu by not offering Flatpak features in their default install for future releases….
Flatpak will not be uninstalled or removed when user makes the upgrade to Ubuntu 23.04 from a version where Flatpak is already present.

I’m a gym girl – I always make sure I still look good under my pump cover – and men agree that I do
A TIKTOKER has revealed that she always makes sure she still looks good under her pump cover.
Men have rushed to decide just how good she looks underneath her cover-up pants.

Sasha Michnevitz wrote on the text overlay of the TikTok video showing her posing in gym wear: “Making sure I still look good under my pump cover.”
A “pump cover,” according to Urban Dictionary, is a piece of clothing “you wear during the start of your workout to build sweat and typically take off to boost (your) workout.”
In this case, it appears to be the sweatpants she was wearing over the top of her shorts.
She affirmed in a wave of self-awareness that the gym wear flattered her by captioning the video “Ya I’m good,” alongside the emoji laughing so hard tears are coming out.
Comments flooded in from TikTokers who enjoyed the view of super-fit Sasha in her pump cover.
“That’s a yes,” one comment wrote, replying to her original text overlay.
Another simply said “Crushing,” with two in-love emojis accompanying their amorous comment.
In a recent video, Sasha showed off one of the benefits of her hard work at the gym by lifting up her shirt, turning her profile, and moving her hips just slightly to show off her trained behind.
The sound effect of the video was a voice talking over music and assuring the listener “If you wanna make out with me just ask…”
Replying to either her comment, her physique, or both, one TikToker said, “Damn, okay.”
Wowing over her toned proportions, a viewer said “Girl, I’m tryna get like this fr,” reiterating how much Sasha reflected their own body goals.
Lucky for the internet, she can show you the exact fitness routine that ensures her body is snatched, pump cover or not.
“Thank you. I have workout programs,” Sasha slyly replied, sealing the potential business deal with a handshake emoji.
I was dress-coded for wearing a head wrap to work – so I clapped back in the best way, people agree it was ‘justified’
A STORY has resurfaced online of a woman being dress coded at work for wearing a head wrap and the way she handled it.
Back in 2016, she clapped back at her place of work in a way that many people say was justified.
In 2016, June Rivas went viral on Facebook after sharing that old by her boss that wearing her hair in a ponytail or wearing a head scarf was ‘unprofessional.
Recently, the story was once again unearthed in a TikTok video from content creator Braxton Wood (@workforreal) who discusses work stories and successes on his platform.
The young office worker’s cultural head wrap was deemed not suitable for the office, yet her contract stated there was no company dress code other than to be “clean and presentable.”
“When the boss realized this, they issued a new memo that updated the dress code,” Wood said in the video.
The employee challenged her boss on the fake dress code and took control of the situation that was indirectly aimed at her.
As someone who enjoys cosplay, she decided to dress up in some stylish costume pieces that still abided by the dress code but in a comedic way.
“There wasn’t anything in the memo about wearing a hairnet and a fake mustache with an apron,” Wood stated.
Rivas showed up to her job wearing a myriad of costumes, that ranged from Storm from X-Men to a Vulcan from Star Trek.
Her take on the dress coding could be seen as malicious compliance, or simply getting the last laugh.
The TikTok user asked his audience at the end of the video if she was petty or made a good point.
Most people seemed to side with Rivas over her decision to subtly combat the dress code violation.
“200% petty, 100% justified. I am here for all of this,” one viewer commented.
“Malicious compliance is my absolute favorite,” another added.
“She was petty and justified,” a fan chimed in.
