Turned out it was carrying a Bible. Upside down.

Now that’s how you do a “camera bump”!

The Republican way.

What is that strange shirt he’s got on? Does it actually say something in Greek?

Looking like the W.O.P.R.

Coffee can be a pain to grow. As someone else mentioned, you have to have the right environment (rain, sunshine, soil, etc).

Adding to this is that it’s easier to grow other things that are in just as much demand. Vietnam has switched to growing durian fruit — less fussy and makes them just as much money.

These people are idiots voted in by idiots. Mike Judge must be a descendant of Nostradamus.

That looks ridiculous.

HP is a US-based company. So that means someone in the US pushed for and approved this change.

I’m amazed anyone actually wanted to buy their assets.

It’s a good point you make.

For Vance, this is just “otherism”. It’s an old trick — your problems are not something you actually need to take responsibility for — it’s all the fault of the “others” in your country. While migration may be a hot mess, the republicans play the card of “all crime is due to these others”. Pay no attention to the grifters elected in the US currently stealing all your money and data.

“In Germany, a firewall has long existed preventing mainstream parties from engaging with the far-right Alternative für Deutschland owing to its Nazi origins. But Vance said there was no room for such barriers.”

Is this the ‘populism’ you’re so concerned about?

While Vance is whining about European censorship, his boss in the US is throwing legitimate press organizations out of the White House briefing room and removing any mention of people of color or LGBT people from education and government documentation.

Is there anything left that Microsoft makes besides Windows, Office, and Xbox?

(And honestly I won’t be surprised if/when MS stops making Xbox hardware.)

Edit: Just remembered they still make Surface. For now anyway.

Nuclear apologists love defending this expensive, hazardous industry. In Texas, mining the uranium for these plants is ruining the water table just like fracking does.

Meanwhile solar, wind, and geothermal are cheaper and cleaner.

When are the investors and employees going to wake up and kick Elon out of Tesla?

The writing is on the wall. They’ve stopped selling blu ray movies in many countries. From one of the articles I linked:

“In mid-2023, Sony Pictures announced plans to stop selling Blu-ray films and series in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. Similarly, Disney recently discontinued the sale of physical media in Australia. Adding to the trend, LG—one of the last manufacturers of Blu-ray players—also announced it would stop producing the devices earlier this year.”

Isn’t Sony the same company that just stopped making optical media?
