    The Watch Duty: Wildfire Maps app has been downloaded 1.5 million times in two days.

    Per NBC reporter Scott Budman. As a “one-stop shop for everything needed during a fire emergency,” the Watch Duty app has become a lifeline for people trying to navigate the wildfires around Los Angeles.

    “It’s total chaos internally at Meta right now.”

    404 Media has updates from unnamed employees on how the moderation changes have been received:

    “The entire thread of comments shared is dissent toward the new policy, save for one leader repeating Zuckerberg talking points. I’d call the mood shock and disbelief,” they added. “It’s embarrassment and shame that feels self-inflicted, different than mistakes the company has made in the past.”

    Oh, and as for Joel Kaplan’s More Speech and Fewer Mistakes, Meta is already answering an “error” that blanked out search results for “LGBT” and “Trans.”

    Putting a price on it makes Sony’s electric car seem a lot more real.

    If you missed it last night, here’s the moment we found out the pricing for both trim levels of Sony / Honda’s Afeela 1 EV: $89,900 for the Afeela 1 Origin and $102,900 for the Afeela 1 Signature.

    Preorders are open now, unless you prefer a PS5 Pro and Gran Turismo 7 as a cheaper option.
