Boy, 7, writes a letter asking kids to boycott McDonald's Happy Meals and his reason is impressive

-

A 7-year-old boy has started a revolution after he asked his fellow students to boycott McDonald's Happy Meals. William Weir wrote an open letter to McDonald's demanding they ditch plastic toys which are given away with their happy meals because they pollute the environment. William told his mum Carrie, 41, that he wanted to write to the burger chain after she told him how bad the toys were for the planet. He went on to write the letter and his mother promised to send it to McDonald's and also share it in some online sites. Then an excited William went to school and told everyone about it and his teachers invited him to read his letter during assembly to Dunchurch Infant School's 170 pupils. Many of the students agreed with the content of the letter and are now joining him in taking a stand. Ian Dewes, the executive headteacher at Dunchurch Infant school and Nursery, was so impressed by the way William spoke to the school that he ...

Biotech holding company Roivant Sciences raised $200M in funding at a whopping $7B valuation

Roivant Sciences  has had a bumpy couple of years, but that isn’t stopping investors from pouring more money into the four-year-old company, which aims to one day be a giant parent company for dozens of independent biopharmaceutical spinoffs — and is fulfilling that vision by creating one independent company at a time. Roivant’s newest financing event: a $200 million raise at a post-money valuation of $7 billion, led by NovaQuest Capital Management, which is an investor in two of Roivant’s companies; RTW Investments, an investment firm focused on biopharma; an unnamed “large U.S. insurance company;” and an unnamed “big U.S. investment firm,” according to a company spokesman. The round follows a  $1.1 billion round  led last year by SoftBank’s Vision Fund, which Roivant now says was closed at a post-money valuation of $5.6 million, though it didn’t necessarily look like money well spent at the time. To wit, r oughly one month after the financing ...

Essential enters dongle hell with a $149 audiophile-grade headphone adapter Share Tweet

We know, you miss your headphone jack. Like other smartphones, the  Essential Phone  has done away with the feature, but the company has just launched its  long-touted  external headphone adapter and DAC, which magnetically snaps on to the back of your phone. To be fair, Essential's adapter doesn't claim to be  like the other plasticky dongles , which are a fraction of the price. Essential claims its titanium adapter "sports an audiophile-grade amp that can drive audiophile-grade headphones" thus providing "studio quality audio performance."  At the time of writing, the accessory has sold out, with stock to be replenished next week. It's a different outcome to Essential's first phone, the PH-1,  which sold poorly  following delays. Still, Essential is  reportedly working on a new phone  which will be controlled entirely by your voice, which it is looking to unveil next year at CES.  And it ain't cheap: The  Au...
