❤ Telegram has launched a new mini game, Emoji Stake. Users place a bet in TON and roll a die; Telegram determines the result and shows you the outcome after each round. The game is available to users at level 5 and above. Rolling a 5 pays 1.5x the bet, a 6 doubles it, and the maximum payout for a streak of 6 wins is 5x the bet

☝️Lazyweb has opened free access to its service, which gives an agent access to 257,000 screens of real apps from 25,000+ companies, plus six ready-made workflows for design research. It connects to Claude, Codex and Cursor, and it's completely free, with no subscription or sign-up.

💻Perplexity has released Personal Computer for all macOS users: a local AI agent that can work with files and apps on your device. The tool gives AI agents access to files, apps and the browser to complete tasks, and it can be controlled remotely from an iPhone.
