Tube talk: If you loved the STEIG LARSSON book, “The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo,” you'll be pleased to know there's a TV series coming to Amazon based on the lead character, Lisbeth Salander. The series, however, will not be the same story from the book or a sequel; instead sources say it'll just take her and put her into today's world with a whole new story. No actress has been named for the role, yet.
Fast food news: grab a donut a day next week as Krispy Kreme celebrates National Doughnut Week! Just stop by any participating store or drive-thru for one free doughnut of your choice from Monday thru Friday --no purchase is necessary and you can choose from any of the brand’s fresh-made doughnut varieties.
Big problem with those Zoom videos --the FBI now says they've gotten nearly 250 reports of people cutting into Zoom sessions by broadcasting videos depicting child sexual abuse. These are not the only incidents of “Zoom-bombing,” either. The feds say they've received reports of “hijackers” broadcasting pornographic or other hateful images during video conferences. In order to get a secure session, the FBI says you should require a password or use Zoom’s waiting room feature to screen guests. In addition, you should never post the links to join the session on public social media posts.
The Chinese are pushing back (again) at the story that the coronavirus originated at a live animal market or a laboratory in Wuhan. The Wall Street Journal reports China’s top epidemiologist, GAO FU, claims not only was the market one of the victims, but he also denies the Wuhan Institute of Virology unleashed the virus during a lab accident.
