    The last time we saw Tim Cook and Donald Trump in the same piece of news was when Trump had called him Tim Apple. Remember that? Oh yes, that was two years ago. Well now, we've learned that Tim Cook gave him a $5,999 Mac Pro machine. Yes, it was a gift.
    The same was confirmed by Donald Trump’s final financial disclosure report. Here, check it out -
    Check out the gifts that people –– including the CEOs of @Boeing, @Ford and @Apple –– gave Trump. (from his final financial disclosure report, released today) https://t.co/nJYwiIxvAB pic.twitter.com/WiZP5HZ3EJ
    — David Enrich (@davidenrich) January 21, 2021 The Mac Pro machine, as you can see, is described as the very first Mac Pro produced at the Flex Factory in Austin, Texas. The folks over at The Verge noted that it's a lie, by the way, and the said factory has apparently been producing since 2013. Oh, well.
    Apple didn't comment when it was asked if it was indeed the first Mac Pro computer out of the factory. Maybe they were saving the unit for Donald Trump? But that doesn't make much sense, hence we're assuming it's the model to come out of the factory in 2019. Still quite significant, so let's not assume it's value. It's a gift, after all.
    Reports note that the gift stems from a November 2019 factory visit to highlight American jobs at the Flex Ltd. manufacturing facility that makes Apple products.
    Going back to the Mac Pro unit, it's worth pointing out that it's not the most expensive version of the machine. In fact, at $5,999, it's the least expensive version of the 2020 Mac Pro. We should also point out that the Mac Pro would need a monitor and maybe $400 wheels. Yeah, who even buys a Mac Pro without those expensive set of wheels, right?

    Anyway, the disclosure report also lists some other gifts that Donald Trump received during his time at the office. It says a $529 leather bomber jacket from Ford chairman Bill Ford, golf clubs and accessories from Derek Sprague, president of the US Golf Association, and a $650 Ultimate Championship belt from martial artist professional Colby Covington.

    In addition to all the gifts, it looks like Deutsche Bank also reduced the interest rate on Trump's outstanding Chicago loan of $45 million. It was reduced by 0.25-percentage points, which saves him a lot of money annually.

    We all have dark circles, fine lines and puffiness under our eyes and we all are constantly trying new things to get rid of them. 

    From trying home remedies to eating and sleeping right, there are so many different things out there. We get it, it can get confusing. 
    After trying many things and failing miserably, I decided to splurge on some of the best-reviewed under eye creams. The market is flooded with these creams but do they actually work?
    There are quite a few opinions out there that say that under eye creams are nothing but “glorified moisturisers”. So, I decided to try each one of these creams for 2 weeks each and see for myself:
    1.  Eye Serum By Rustic Art This serum is enriched with not 1 or 2 but 17 active ingredients. A serum is like food for your skin. It’s also one of the best options to go for if you have oily skin. 
    Enriched with essential oils and natural ingredients like amla and turmeric, this fluid actually did work well. 
    It was very lightweight and got easily absorbed into my skin. I used it before bed each night and started to see a difference within a week. The fine lines were still evident, however, as far as the dark circles are concerned, it worked like magic. 
    My under-eye bags were reduced significantly. Overall, this product is definitely worth your money. 
    __ECOMPRODUCT__606__
    2.   Mensome’s Under Eye Gel To begin with, this under-eye gel for men has cucumber and calendula extracts, which help in soothing the skin. It's a water-based formula which feels light as air on my skin. It took seconds to get absorbed and left no greasiness behind. 
    Coming to the point, this under-eye gel had a very soothing and cooling effect on my skin. It definitely reduced my under-eye puffiness and made my eyes look fresher and more youthful. 
    The dark circles were reduced but not as drastically as one would expect. Also, for the price you pay, the quantity of the product is great. This cream can easily last for months. 
    __ECOMPRODUCT__608__
    3.   Eye Gel With Hyaluronic Acid In case you don’t know, Hyaluronic Acid is one of the most popular skincare ingredients out there. On its own, it’s extremely hydrating and is great for oily as well as dry skin. 
    In this formulation, however, you also get aloe vera, Vitamin B5, Vitamin E, carrot seed oil and fennel extracts.
    This eye cream was undoubtedly my favourite. Firstly, it targeted all the three problems that I face - dark circles, fine lines and puffiness. 
    This cream will not only make your skin firmer but also hydrate it. 
    __ECOMPRODUCT__1082__
    Final Thoughts: Do You Really Need Eye Cream We live in a digital world where we are constantly shifting from one screen to another. This has adverse effects on your eyes, skin and overall health too. 
    Dark circles are not caused by lack of sleep alone but also because of this addiction to the screens. However, reducing your screen time is not a very practical option at this age. Therefore, using an eye cream is your best bet. 
    Don’t just take my word for it. Try it and see for yourself!

    For months, all those Americans who were opposed to Joe Biden and didn't want him to be elected as the next President of the United States didn't hold back from saying that he is not their president, and will never be their president.
    Basically, it was all the Donald Trump supporters' war cry because they were so furious that Trump lost the election to Joe Biden.
    © Reuters
    Well, some people took the quote that people actually used to show their disapproval of their new president and turned it into one of the most hilarious jokes ever.

    One person, in particular, went viral for saying Joe Biden is not his president and he had a pretty accurate reason for that. 
    An Indian guy named Prayag Tiwari replied to Joe Biden's tweet saying 'Joe Biden is not my President'.
    Joe biden is not my president
    — Prayag (@theprayagtiwari) January 20, 2021 Of course, someone assumed he's a Trump supporter but nope, he just lives in India and Joe Biden is obviously not his president.
    No I am from india
    — Prayag (@theprayagtiwari) January 20, 2021 The viral interaction has been shared widely all over the internet and it even resulted in a Twitter trend. #JoeBidenIsNotMyPresident will make literally everyone laugh.

    In his first remarks, Biden said, “Here we stand days after a riotous mob thought they could silence the will of the people. It will not happen, not today, not tomorrow, not ever.” He pledged to be honest with the country as it continues to confront difficulties, saying leaders had an obligation to “defend the truth and defeat the lies”.

    Some people go to any extent for having fun and forget that there is a thin line between being funny or being mean. Recently, owners of a high-end restaurant in Pakistan’s Islamabad city have come under extreme scrutiny on social media after their video mocking their manager over his English speaking skills went viral.
    The restaurant shown in the video is running under the name Cannoli by Café Soul. In the minute-long video, the owner Uzma Chaudary and Dia Haider introduce the manager of the restaurant who expresses that he has been working at the restaurant for the last nine years.
    Humiliating your countrymen so you’ll be accepted by foreigners always ends in being rejected by both. #BoycottCannoli https://t.co/hORo2XL1Ta
    — Jeremy McLellan (@JeremyMcLellan) January 21, 2021
    The next question they asked the manager named Awais, is that how many English learning courses he has taken. To which he replies, that he has taken three courses spanning over six years to learn the language.  
    The woman then asks the manager to speak a sentence in English. Nervously, Awais speaks a sentence and says, “My name is Awais Aftab and I job here manager, and that's it.” While the two women are laughing in the background and then they continue saying that this is how beautifully he speaks English and that he is at a very good salary.
    Social media has now been upset with the two women for looking down upon the manager for not being able to speak proper English. And now #BoycottCannoli has also been trending on Twitter after the video went viral.
    Here’s what people have to say about this-

    Disgusting and shameful!
    what a sick mentality, I think language is just a way of communication. However, in different country, speaking Eng makes you feel elite or a kind of superior than others. English is just a language not to define how capable someone is. #BoycottCannoli pic.twitter.com/bA7XmyQB1D

    The two women have now issued an apology saying that the whole video was misinterpreted. They said, "This video depicts the gup shup between us as a team, and is never meant or taken in a hurtful or negative way. If anyone was hurt or offended we apologize, however that was never our intention.”

    Here's some good news for all you Sushant Singh Rajput fans. 

    According to news reports, a stretch of road in Andrews Ganj in south Delhi will soon be named after the late actor, as the area's civic body has cleared a proposal for it, officials said on Thursday.
    © Fox Star Studios
    Sushant, who would have turned 35 on Thursday, was found dead at his Bandra residence in Mumbai on June 14 last year. 

    The Dil Bechara actor's fans and admirers from the B-Town took to social media to pay emotional tributes to the actor whose untimely demise was followed by a high-profile investigation. 
    © MensXP
    Reports suggest that SDMC's Congress councillor Abhishek Dutt in September 2020 had moved the proposal to name the road after the actor. 

    "It was cleared by the SDMC House in its meeting yesterday," a senior official said. 
    The Andrews Ganj councillor in the BJP-led South Delhi Municipal Corporation had sent the proposal to the civic body's road naming and renaming committee. 
    What Reports Suggest In the written proposal to the committee, Dutt had said that a large number of people living in the area abutting Road No 8 hail from Bihar, and had claimed "they have been demanding" to name the stretch from Andrews Ganj to Indira Camp as 'Sushant Singh Rajput Marg'.
    © Instagram/Sushant Singh Rajput
    So, it is proposed that Road No 8 be named after the actor in his memory, Dutt had said.

    Meanwhile, most people on Twitter reacted to this development in a positive way:

    — Roshali (@Roshali14) January 21, 2021 However, there were also some who questioned this move:
    Crazy! These kind of things happen in India.
    What anyone need is a fair trail and justice for his suicide or alleged murder. Naming street after him is to get sympathy from the social media!
    — Phani Raghavendra (@sanduriphani) January 22, 2021How dumb is it to name a road after an actor? How can we build a great nation representing a great civilization if our minds are obsessed with films and celebrities? How? https://t.co/zfvFoi60nf
    — Prasanna Karthik (@prasannakarthik) January 22, 2021I agree. What happened to him was tragic, but what was his contribution to nation building? Rather name the road after an Indian army hero!
    — Charu Pragya🇮🇳 (@CharuPragya) January 22, 2021 On Thursday, Twitter was flooded with messages and wishes as people remembered Sushant, marking the late actor's 35th birthday.
    Ankita Lokhande, Sushant's ex-partner who dated him for over six years, shared a heart-warming video of the late actor where he can be seen playing with his pet dog. 
    Ankita wrote that she will always remember Sushant as a “happy, intelligent, romantic and adorable” man. 
     “I don’t know how to start and what to say but yes today I’m gonna share few of yours old videos Sushant to celebrate you .these are the only memories I hv with u and i will always remember you Like this ️happy , intelligent,romantic,mad and adorable #HappyBirthdaySSR,” read the caption of the video shared by the Manikarnika actor.

    Freedom of speech is one of the most important rights for any citizen and looks like that's under scrutiny now.

    In a democratic country, people have a right to share their opposing opinions and yes, of course, have a right to share their disdain over the ruling party and any of their laws they find wrong. 
    Well, if you start monitoring what people are allowed to say, it will turn into a dictatorship pretty soon.
    © Reuters
    And, I'm not saying that's what's happening in India right now, but if something isn't done, we might be on our way towards that.

    Reportedly, Nitish Kumar, the chief minister of Bihar, has decided to bring offensive and defamatory social media posts against the government, its ministers, and other officials, under the category of cybercrime.
    © Reuters
    Of course, any serious threats made online towards anyone should be treated as a crime, but is even criticism coming under fire now?

    I mean, even PM Modi himself has said that he welcomes criticism as that's the sign of democracy.
    I want this Government to be criticised. Criticism makes democracy strong: PM @narendramodi
    — PMO India (@PMOIndia) April 18, 2018
    What happened here? He has now ordered the state police's Economic Offenses Wing, the nodal point for such crimes, to report and act against those who make them.
    A letter written by the chief of the Economic Offences Wing, IG Nayyar Hasnain Khan, to all secretaries of the state government says, "It has come to light that certain persons and organizations have been making defamatory and offensive comments on social media against the government, respected ministers, parliamentarians, legislators, and government officials. This is against prescribed law and comes under the category of cybercrime."

    If speaking against the government is a crime, literally, every citizen should be in jail because let's be real, every single person has at one point disagreed with the government, be it the ruling party now, or the one we had before.

    That fact that Varun Dhawan is a massive sneakerhead is no secret. He has one of the most varied and awe-inducing collections of sneakers in Bollywood. 
    Time and again, he has shown us, as well as the rest of the Hindi film industry, just how quirky his sensibilities are when it comes to sneakers.
    © Viral Bhayani
    From sneakers that legit look they have been made out of fur, to a pair of really zany, rainbow-coloured sneakers, he has worn every kind of sneaker that one can think of.
    © Viral Bhayani
    Well, this time around, he was spotted wearing perhaps the chunkiest of sneakers we have ever seen. 

    So chunky, in fact, that the treads on the sole of the sneakers look as if they are as deep as that of a car’s tyre.
    © Viral Bhayani
    But first, let’s have a look at his outfit.

    Varun was spotted outside the offices of Maddock Films, wearing a rather basic, but functional outfit - a black T-shirt with a pair of relax-fit, black joggers. 
    We also like the Idee clubmaster-styled sunglasses that he has paired with the outfit. 
    © Viral Bhayani
    All in all, this is actually a nice way to colour coordinate your outfits, and go for a monochrome outfit.
    © Viral Bhayani
    The centrepiece, so to speak, of Varun’s ensemble, however, are his sneakers, and boy are they something special.
    © Reebok
    Varun is seen here wearing the Classic Leather Legacy Sneakers In Chalk Blue, from Reebok. At first glance, they seem like any other, run of the mill sneakers. 
    © Reebok
    Upon looking closely, one will realise, that these are perhaps the chunkiest sneakers anyone in Bollywood has ever worn. 

    In fact, the treads on the sole of the sneaks, look humongous. They, in fact, look as big and deep, as the treads we see on the tyres of a car. 
    © Reebok
    The upper of these sneakers are made using sustainable materials. The sneakers itself are a part of their ‘[Ree]Cycled’ sustainable collection.
    © Viral Bhayani
    Considering that we have seen Varun wear sneakers that cost as much as a new iPhone, these sneakers are actually affordable. 

    Although they retail for about Rs 6,599, sneakerheads can pick these pair up for a lot less, if they know where to look and know how to play their cards right.
    © Viral Bhayani
    As quirky as these sneakers look, we actually kinda dig its aesthetic and colourway. The fact that they are somewhat sustainably made, is another cool aspect.

    Rajdeep Sardesai is no stranger to being trolled. On Thursday evening, the senior journalist found himself occupying Twitter's number one trend yet again. The occasion this time was the Mood Of The Nation (MOTN) survey released by India Today in partnership with Karvy Insights and its findings. We'll come back to Rajdeep again in a bit. But first, a bit about the survey.
    MOTN is a bi-annual survey conducted by India Today in an attempt to gauge the political sentiment across the country. In this edition, a total of 12,232 interviews were conducted across 97 parliamentary and 194 assembly constituencies across 19 states between January 3 and January 13 to understand which party would come to power if the 2024 General Election was held today.
    MOTN survey highlightsNational Democratic Alliance (NDA) would win 321 seats as compared to the 353 seats it won in 2019
    NDA's vote share is likely to be 43% as opposed to 45% in 2019
    United Progressive Alliance (UPA) to show no improvement from its 2019 tally
     73 % Indians are satisfied with PM Modi's management of the Covid-19 crisis
    PM Modi's approval ratings stand at an impressive 74% 
    With that context, let's shift focus back on Rajdeep who was 'slightly baffled' by one data point in particular. 
    66 % say income decreased during COVID times, 19 % say they lost jobs. And yet 67% say central govt has handled economic fallout of the pandemic well. Slightly baffling but then that’s what the poll says. Faith in govt remains high. #MoodOfTheNation @IndiaToday

    That's not all. During the course of the discussion surrounding Covid-19 and its response, Rajdeep wondered why healthcare workers weren't particularly keen on getting vaccinated. To which he was met with this response from top cardiologist Dr. Naresh Trehan, who also happens to be Aroon Purie's (Rajdeep's boss and promoter of the TV Today Group) brother-in-law. 
    Now its Dr Naresh Trehan turn to scold @Sardesairajdeep on his own show Dr Trehan was speaking on Unnecessary Political controversy created on the Corona Vaccine but Rajdeep kept interrupting only to get scolded 🤷‍♂️ pic.twitter.com/g9yUDcTXiX
    — Rosy (@rose_k01) January 21, 2021 Twitter junta obviously had a field day thanks to this flashpoint between the two. Not to mention the delight of the pro-government section that made merry (at Rajdeep's expense) on account of the survery's results.
    Today, Rajdeep gets scolded by Dr Naresh Trehan. I think there is no one on his show except Rhea Chakraborty who has not scolded him.
    — saket साकेत ಸಾಕೇತ್ 🇮🇳 (@saket71) January 21, 2021In Modi's high approval ratings, Rajdeep sees his own failures. How irrelevant and ineffective he is. He sounds like the losing captain giving a post match interview.
    — Ram (@ramprasad_c) January 22, 2021 Interestingly, Prof Shamika Ravi reminded Rajdeep of another such instance of him being startled at the findings of India's Today's MOTN survey.
    Déjà vu! How can you be repeatedly surprised by your own surveys, Rajdeep? Exact same thing happened 6 months back when you found the numbers "bewildering". May I suggest, the next time just add a few open-ended questions to the questionnaire. It might not be such a deep mystery. https://t.co/0ab9y4rvks
    — Prof Shamika Ravi (@ShamikaRavi) January 21, 2021 Here's the clip from the MOTN survey in August 2020, when Rajdeep was 'absolutely bewildered' to learn that the Indian public stood firmly behind PM Modi despite the economic hardship triggered by the lockdown.
    Who handled the economy better - PM Narendra Modi or Manmohan Singh? This is what #MOTN2020 survey shows. @ShamikaRavi, Sr Fellow of Brookings Institute, decodes the findings. #MOTN2020 LIVE at https://t.co/4fqxBVUizL

    — IndiaToday (@IndiaToday) August 7, 2020 Apart from being roasted for expressing shock at India Today's MOTN surveys (past and present), Rajdeep has been right-wing Twitter favorite whipping boy for a while. From being slayed by Smriti Irani to the high-profile Sushant Singh Rajput death case, where he copped serious flak for his comments, Rajdeep continues to be at the centre Twitter rage.

    WhatsApp is currently having a hard time retaining its users in India where its new privacy policy has stirred some controversy. There's a lot of misinformation about WhatsApp's new policy and how it aims to read our private conversation to serve us ads.
    Well amidst all the controversy, WhatsApp has decided to releases a couple of new features. WhatsApp users can now use both video and voice call features on the web. The feature is now rolling out slowly to all the users, so you should have it soon.

    A lot of people have shared the screenshots of the new feature, although we don't see it go live for us. Looking at the screenshots, you can see the voice and video call buttons with beta written over. Wabetainfo, a popular source for WhatsApp info also confirmed the same and said the feature is now rolling out in more countries.

    Since the feature is currently in beta, it may not be available for all. You'll have to be a part of WhatsApp's beta program. Even then you may or may not get the feature due to the location limitation.
    “WhatsApp is rolling out beta calls for specific users but unfortunately, being a beta feature, it’s available for very few people. We hope you’re lucky but, if it doesn’t, don’t worry: every day more users receive that activation and, at present, WhatsApp Desktop has a higher priority,” the Wabetainfo read.

    We don't have much info about how the feature works, but if the reports are something to go by, then it looks like a new window will open up every time you receive a call or try to make a call through the WhatsApp web.

    This particular feature was first said to be in development back in October 2020 and it's finally rolling out. WhatsApp is yet to officially announce the feature, which means it's going to be a while until it rolls out for everyone.
    And since we're talking about new features, it looks like WhatsApp is also planning to introduce a "Read Later" feature. You'll be able to mark chats as "Read Later" which is basically an improved version of Archived chats and the incoming notifications for that particular chat will be muted.
