After 18 Years, Apple Is Killing Its 9-Minute Snooze—That Can Only Mean One Thing
For years, it's always been nine more measly minutes. If you don't know what the hell I'm talking about, you've probably never owned an iPhone, or you're one of those freaks who wakes up without a device screaming in your face to do so. If you are in one of those camps, let me explain: for 18 years, Apple has maintained a vice grip on its alarm snooze feature, which grants nine more minutes to your alarm. No more, no less. Just nine minutes. And there's no adjusting that in settings. No adjusting that until now, that is. As noted by MacRumors, iOS 26, which was just introduced at Apple's WWDC 2025, finally lets you manually set your snooze time, which means one thing: it's time to sleep the f**k in, at least for as much as 15 whole minutes. In normal, non-sleep-related time, six minutes more isn't a lot, but when it comes to waking up, if you're anything like me, six minutes is basically a lifetime. Imagine all the horrible stress dreams about your teeth falling out you could have had in that time. Or heck, you might even luck out and get the one where you're driving a car and the brakes go out. The possibilities are really endless, or at least endless within a 15-minute span. Not only that, but you can even—if you're a total masochist—set your snooze time to be shorter. As noted by MacRumors, the developer beta allows you to choose anywhere between one and 15 minutes. The world is now your sleepy little oyster, and you are able to shuck it into the future up to 15 minutes at a time. On one hand, it's kind of wild that it's taken this long to give people the option to extend or retract their snooze times, but also very Apple-like. For many years, Apple was known for its definitive design that locked people in, though that's changed as the years have gone by. In today's iOS, you can change app icons, customize wallpapers, and—soon in iOS 26—choose backgrounds for your threads in Messages, and much more. Those are all things that iOS users of yore only dreamed about, and now they're a reality. It's a shift for Apple, but in this case, probably one that most people will welcome. As for the 9-minute default, well, it'll still have its place as the iOS default and also its own place in history. The 9-minute snooze, if you'll allow me a quick reverie, is a vestige of alarm clock history, originating from GE's Model 7H241 from 1956, which was the first alarm clock with a snooze feature. Why nine minutes exactly? Well, back in the day, clocks had gears, and that meant you had to work around the physical constraints of said gears. GE wasn't able to set 10 minutes exactly due to those constraints—it had to choose nine minutes and change or 10 minutes and change, and ultimately it went with nine. Clearly that decision lasted a lot longer than nine minutes in the long run. If you're ready to break out of the 9-minute prison Apple has kept you in, you'll have to wait a little bit, though. Currently, iOS 16 is only available via a developer beta, and the first public beta launches next month. The non-beta software should launch in the fall in full, along with Apple's newest-generation iPhones, and once that happens, we can all rest easy—at least for 15 more minutes.

Dollar Hits Multiyear Lows
The dollar sank to its weakest level in years, losing ground against the euro, Japanese yen and other currencies. The WSJ Dollar Index traded as low as 94.48, the lowest intraday level since July 2023, according to Dow Jones Market Data. That gauge and the U.S. Dollar Index were recently both on pace to settle at their lowest levels in years. The euro surged above $1.16, and was on course for its strongest end-of-day level since October 2021.

Shaq Signs $1.8 Million Check to End His Crypto Drama
Shaquille O'Neal can finally breathe a sigh of relief. The basketball legend turned businessman and TV personality has agreed to pay $1.8 million to settle a class-action lawsuit over his role in promoting the now-defunct cryptocurrency exchange FTX. While the payment closes a legal chapter for the former Laker, it also marks a turning point in how courts are treating celebrity endorsements in the volatile world of crypto, a space where stardom once offered both hype and cover. O'Neal is among the first big names to reach a settlement in the high-profile FTX case, which also names football legend Tom Brady, his ex-wife Gisele Bündchen, NBA superstar Steph Curry, tennis player Naomi Osaka, and Seinfeld creator Larry David. Some of the claims against these celebrities, who say they weren't aware of the risks, have already been dismissed. But O'Neal's decision to settle stands out. He was accused of promoting FTX to his fans and investors, appearing in a string of marketing campaigns. In return, the company allegedly sponsored his music festival venture, Shaq's Fun House. According to the lawsuit, O'Neal promoted the partnership through social media posts and videos. He was allegedly paid $750,000 for his endorsement. 'Plaintiffs seek class-wide relief from Mr. O'Neal, who was an alleged influencer and celebrity paid by FTX to present FTX to his followers and event attendees as a safe and legitimate alternative to other cryptocurrency exchanges,' states the court document (FTX Cryptocurrency Exchange Collapse Litigation, Docket No. 1:23-md-03076, S.D. Fla. Jun 5, 2023). An initial settlement was reached last November. It was unveiled in May by the court, and on June 9, the final $1.8 million agreement was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida by Adam Moskowitz, the plaintiffs' attorney. O'Neal must pay the amount within 30 days. FTX, which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on Nov. 11, 2022, had become a crypto juggernaut thanks in part to its celebrity ambassadors. But behind the scenes, the platform was using customer assets as collateral to borrow funds that were funneled to its sister company, Alameda Research, for trading and investments. When the house of cards collapsed, both companies went under, sparking lawsuits against founder Sam Bankman-Fried, his inner circle, and the stars who endorsed the brand. O'Neal's settlement isn't just about resolving his personal liability. It's a wake-up call to celebrities who cashed in on the crypto boom without fully understanding, or disclosing, the risks. 'I don't understand it,' O'Neal told CNBC in 2021 about cryptocurrencies. 'So, I will probably stay away from it until I get a full understanding of what it is.' He added, 'From my experience, it is too good to be true.' Yet he didn't stay away. Since the FTX implosion, regulators like the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Federal Trade Commission have been cracking down on undisclosed paid crypto endorsements. The SEC now emphasizes 'fair disclosure' and 'financial literacy,' warning that fame is no longer a shield. The message to celebrities is unequivocal: if you promote it, you are now expected to 'own' it, even if the venture collapses. And this isn't Shaq's only crypto-related legal headache. Last November, he was ordered to pay $11 million to settle a separate lawsuit involving Astrals, a failed non-fungible tokens (NFT) project he co-founded with his son Myles O'Neal. (NFTs are digital collectibles that can be owned, sold, or traded online.) The project promised a metaverse experience where users would interact via NFT avatars. But after FTX's downfall, Shaq reportedly distanced himself from the venture, leaving investors to fend for themselves. Now, with $12.8 million in crypto settlements under his belt, O'Neal may think twice before lending his name to another crypto venture.
