Starbucks just unveiled their new holiday cups.

For the past few years, for whatever reason, the cups have made a handful of people outraged.

Here are this year’s four designs, and they seem pretty Christmas-y.

1. A cup with bright red, dark red, white, and gold vertical stripes.
2. A cup with red and white flame patterns.
3. A white cup with light green holly and red berries.
4. A green cup with an argyle-style pattern, featuring big white stars.

Twitter is finally letting people view tweets chronologically.

Users will have the ability to switch between an algorithmic timeline and a chronological one.

The feature is currently only available to all Twitter employees and select users. No word on when or if the chronological toggle will be available to everybody.

Sometimes you want to see the latest Tweets, first. We’re testing a way for you to make it easier to switch your timeline between the latest and top Tweets. Starting today, a small number of you will see this test on iOS. pic.twitter.com/7NHLDUjrIv

Mario Segale has passed away. That name probably doesn’t mean anything to you, but Mario Segale is the man Nintendo name Mario after.

Back in 1981, Segale was the landlord of the warehouse rented by Nintendo of America.

Nintendo was looking for proper names for these characters. Mario got his name from Mario Segale.

Segale passed away this week at the age of 84, he always ducked the lime light and wanted to be known instead for what he accomplished in life.
