For people who are constantly forgetting their keys or wallets, Apple's next product could be a godsend. The tech company is rumoured to be working on a physical tag that will help users track their items using their iPhones. Similar to Tile, the tag - known only as "B389" by the people involved in its development - can be attached to any item, according to a report in 9to5Mac .

Users will be able to create a list of "ignored" locations, so that they can leave the item at those locations without being alerted. The device could also help users find lost items, by acting like a digital "luggage tag".

Well, Musk tweeted an image of the sheep in response to a post by MIT Technology Review about the world’s biggest airplane, which they also dubbed an ‘absolute unit.’ And he clearly found his own joke funny, even making the sheep his profile picture. Now, the Museum of English Rural Life has hilariously responded to Musk’s photo, by changing its profile picture to a photo of Musk. The museum even tweeted: "Can we put a sheep into space in a car now please it's 2019." I must admit that an exchange between Elon Musk and the Museum of English Rural … [Read more...] about Elon Musk changes Twitter picture to sheep
