We told you last week about an update that WhatsApp may be bringing to its disappearing messages function. While currently, the only setting is for 7 days, the Facebook-owned messaging app is planning to bring 24-hours and 90-day options as well. It looks like this feature upgrade will be going to Samsung Galaxy owners first, specifically the recently announced Galaxy Z Fold 3 and the Galaxy Z Flip 3 smartphones before rolling out in the stable version to everyone else. T3 reports that the upcoming disappearing messages option for WhatsApp will initially be exclusive for Samsung Galaxy owners, although they didn’t really say where this information comes from. But if it’s true, it will be a huge scoop for Samsung users if they are heavy WhatsApp users. But they will most likely need to have the new Galaxy Z Fold 3 and the Galaxy Z Flip 3 as per the rumors. There’s no information if it will also roll out earlier to other Galaxy devices. Currently, the disappearing messages feature is of course available for everyone but you’ll only see the 7-day option so you’ll have to wait a week before your message disappears.

According to findings released this week in the Nature journal (via The New York Post), one beef hot dog on a bun costs whoever eats it 36 minutes off their life, “largely due to the detrimental effect of processed meat.” Chestnut has eaten no fewer than 52 hot dogs in any Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contests since 2006. His lowest recorded number of hot dogs eaten in the competition, 32, came in 2005. The information comes from researchers at the University of Michigan School of Public Health. Their study places foods in a "health nutritional index," essentially ranking them by minutes gained or lost upon ingestion. The study ranked foods that ranged from 74 minutes lost, to 80 gained.MORE: Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest results: Who won the hot dog competition in 2021? “Previous studies investigating healthy or sustainable diets have often reduced their findings to a discussion of plant-based versus animal-based foods, with the latter stigmatized as the least nutritious and sustainable,” the…

YouTube on Monday said it has shelled out $30 billion to creators over the last three years — a revelation that comes as the Alphabet-owned video giant has seen its sales surge during the pandemic.

That money has come from ads, which YouTube is best known for, as well as merchandising and other features it offers.YouTube has been paying creators since 2007 — a couple years after the site first launched — and takes about 45% of video ad sales, according to Bloomberg. Neal Mohan, YouTube’s chief product officer, told Bloomberg on Monday he doesn’t see that changing anytime soon.Last month, YouTube reported its Q2 revenue jumped 84% year-over-year to $7 billion. That’s neck-and-neck with Netflix’s quarterly sales, and as TheWrap previously reported, both companies are expected to bring in about $30 billion this year.YouTube’s Monday announcement likely wasn’t just a pat on the back; it could also be looked at as a signal its still the…
