It isn't about evil. It's about overreach. Did anyone in an EU nation imagine, when the EU was formed, that the EU would dictate to all its members what sort of chargers or adapters they could use for electrical devices?

The US has had standard plugs for electrical devices for decades. What was the last time you bought a microwave, or television, or toaster and it had a non-standard plug to go into the wall?

If the government can standardize the plugs on the wall side of the power cable, why shouldn't they standardize the plug on the device side of the cable? There may well be a good reason, so I'm asking sincerely.

Since "His main role was to negotiate with suppliers to keep the price Apple pays for computer parts down" and he's no longer there, does this mean Apple will pay more for parts and pass on those costs to the consumer?

It's funny that you think the price Apple pays for computer parts has anything to do with the price you pay for their products.

Given that Russia is now considered an almost terrorist state by pretty well all the other countries in the world, what outlets are there for a pro-Russian message?

Zerohedge.

"yes, but also get a rump and legs and a cute wet nose..."

That's what Pornhub is for.

let's attach a political valence to clean drinking water and not wallowing in your own poo.

Why do you libs have to make everything about Trump?

I've been demanding a return to physical buttons in my car for a while now, but since Jony Ive says I should, I'm going the other way. Give me more haptic touchscreens. Fuck Jony Ive.

My goodness. You know for sure that when you see some right-wing thought leader use the word "wokeism" you're in for a joy ride of reactionary hysteria, exaggeration, and flabby bad faith arguments. The review of the book by David M. Jones and M. L.R. Smith and the manifesto from (among others) Victor Orban fan and prissy whiner Rod Dreher, N.S. Lyons, and R.R. Reno do not disappoint in this regard.

And boy, those effete semi-fascists sure do love using lots of initials, don't they? One wonders what their baristas at Starbucks write on the cup of their soy lattes.

We needed a study to know that being tired makes you cranky?

If I had a Prius, I'd want it to sound like this:

Shouldn't the Russian army be using robot wargs instead of robot dogs?

Congratulations, you just invented the rental car.

It's actually more impressive than that. They just invented the auto lease. Is there no end to the innovative genius of California startups?

There's one called "Firefox"

Hey, that one wasn't so terrible. I saw it at the Drive-In and it was Clint Eastwood as a hotshot fighter pilot who has to go steal some Soviet super-stealth plane. It was good stupid fun, but then I was high AF.

But open a Dominos?

You can find better food at practically any street vendor's in Naples than anything you could find at any of the big American chain behemoths. I once had a calzone served to me wrapped in paper at a Naples market that still gives me night sweats to think about. The lady who served it to me looked like Al Molinaro from Happy Days, but she knew how to make a calzone.

Cars have had chips in them since the 1960s, so if they start making Rambler's again, I'm in.
