\"\"Tim Horton’s<\/a> launched its new loyalty program across Canada yesterday.<\/p>\n

\"\"The rewards program is centered on visits, which must involve a purchase of $0.50 or more, and can\u2019t be within half an hour of each other. After seven visits, customers get a free coffee or tea at any size, or a baked good (except Timbits and bagels).<\/p>\n

Instead of a paper card, the rewards program will be offered on the Tim Hortons mobile app as well as on a plastic, reusable swipe card \u2014 giving Tim Hortons a wider window into customer buying habits.<\/p>\n

Oh Tims, you spoil us. ? #canada<\/a> https:\/\/t.co\/rFsOAL4yn0<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"The NFL, MLB, NBA, and NHL have all been obsessed with tweaking their sports to make games shorter and more exciting, that’s where Apple<\/a> comes in with their new idea: Just eliminate whole games altogether.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\" \"\" \"\"For about a year, they’ve been loosely developing a service that would curate sports highlights in real time, so that, in theory, you’d see the best moments that are happening across all sports at any given time.<\/p>\n

For the record, nothing is imminent. Apple’s research into this is reportedly in the “first inning.” It’s unclear how they’d even get the rights to all these video feeds, how they’d determine what was most significant in real-time and how they’d provide enough context to allow people to understand that significance.<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"New cars from\u00a0Volvo<\/a>\u00a0are going to be equipped with cameras and sensors that will monitor a driver for signs of distraction and intoxication.<\/p>\n

If a driver isn’t paying attention, the car will issue an audible warning before slowing down and then automatically pulling over to a safe location.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, the company announced its future cars will have a max speed limit of 112mph\/180kmh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u00a0It’s Funky Sock Day!
