"uhh, I'm sorry officer, I changed it recently and now in all the commotion of being arrested and thrown in a cop car and all that, I just can't seem to remember what it is."

That doesn't even work. I've been banned from subs for literally posting information directly from CDC or WHO that was against the popular narrative. Just a week or two ago I pointed out on /r/worldnews, and linked to published CDC data, about vaccine efficacy going down.

And I was banned for spreading falsehoods about vaccines...

Well, we've got a president who apparently doesn't know the difference between Taliban, al Qaeda and ISIS or the difference between an ally and an adversary who is commander-in-chief and making foreign policy, so...

Well, unless that means $100,000 per affected subscriber. Then, it starts to add up.

Sure, Apple says they will deny "requests" from governments to expand this to include other images (Winnie the Pooh?).

But when those countries pass laws REQUIRING it, which of course will happen, it will be impossible to put the toothpaste back in the tube.

Sorry Apple. You are royally screwing up on this one.

But when a country passes a law requiring it? Apple will fold like a cheap suit.

I mean, just yesterday, I read this story about how the insane cost of law school is driving people AWAY from that career path.

Obligatory XKCD

Today, China says: "There is no indication that H10N3 can spread easily in humans."

Jan. 2020, China says "“Preliminary investigations conducted by the Chinese authorities have found no clear evidence of human-to-human transmission of the novel #coronavirus (2019-nCoV) identified in #Wuhan, #China,”

Well, the WHO said that second one, but WHO basically = China anyway.

I have a touchscreen radio/climate control thing in my Dodge Journey. Hate it. Otherwise I like the car.

But give me physical controls I can adjust without even looking at them and I'd be happy.

Same thing is happening with the newest version of the US's fighter jets, going to touchscreens. Pilots hate it because no longer can you adjust something by feel without looking.

It's a pickup truck. Toss a generator in the pickup bed and keep on truckin'.

This is EXACTLY why I don't buy digital-only things. I want the PHYSICAL item. I don't want to be stuck relying on someone else's "good graces" to provide continuous access to something I purchased and own.

I can watch a physical movie whenever I want, wherever I want. No need for internet. Same thing with books. I can grab a book from my shelf and read it. No electricity or internet required. No batteries to worry about. It's a freaking book.

It's a freaking pair of SHOES, dumbasses!

Sheesh.

Seriously! SHOES!

How many Libraries of Congress can it hold?
