I played so much on PC, bought on launch day but never beat it because I just spent 90% of my time in photo mode ๐Ÿ˜…

Don't get me wrong, I am not looking at this as inevitable. I am saying that things continue the way they are now, the best case scenario is we end up w/web like Brazil, sold piecemeal from approved providers. Worst case is a complete, next generation Great Firewall - full enclosure - dotGov only.

Think endgame, not today, not 6 months now. Look at North Korea and China. NK is well on its way to a nationally-walled internet, China would already if it weren't for web commerce and the ability for unbelievers to self incriminate. If "they"want to disconnect us from the world they will.

Because if it gets as truly bad as it could, do you think they'll permit us to get news from elsewhere? Or do you think they'll slowly start making lists of banned or tracked traffic that goes against our values?

That isn't a long term plan.

It can take years for a product or format to break through. The barriers are commercial viability, practicality, consumer confidence, and marketability. That didn't happen for cassettes until the VHS/VCR combo in the early 80s. Can *argue* that the DVD boom didn't happen until the PS2 came out.

I did mean that. It doesn't matter to a home user what is sitting in an engineering lab, or set as a studio production standard, and to an extent, the early adopter and water test wave doesn't matter. What matters is when they can go rent a movie, and ask whose house they're going to take it to.

DVD came out longer ago than the time span that VHS was in homes.

You need to sign these or watermark them, get your credit when someone inevitably just shares the panel.

I am not saying he was falsely accused mind you, but that these laws protect employees *and# the business. They likely have liability concerns that need to be met. And he will likely be disposed of as soon as the lawyers decide it's legally safe to do so.
comment in response to post
There is VERY LIKELY a situation where they cannot formally fire him when there is an internal and possibly legal investigation underway, and people are not at liberty (no pun) to discuss this. This is meant to protect people from false accusations and wrongful termination. He'll be gone in time.

Let's have a race to see if a Coffee plant or a US auto plant grows slower

His run was to make money, then his run was to avoid prison.

What does it say that "hey let's be kind" offends them like it's some kind of dog whistle for woke?

Well, for the sake of truth and honesty, we do have some Hawaiian and Californian coffee varietals (and PR but as far as this govmt is concerned that might as well be Wet Mexico). The US grown coffee is generally less than 1% of our consumption.

Look we have some issues, largely in the metric department But sweaters make you sweat, not jump, and a boot is for feet not sweaters if we store things (though to confuse things trunks are also pants adjacent in some regions). I have no good answer for flea market.

I had assumed choosing an American Pope was a power play to begin with. To get the Western Catholics back on board with one of their own. Whether it was going to be the peace and mercy Catholics or the fire and brimstone Catholics was going to be the real gamble.

Double, maybe not? But people have been overlooking for months: The packaging and equipment for the process of harvest/manufacture of Made in USA are not made in the US. If they are, they're not made with US supplies and shipped on US vehicles. If they are, the equipment those are made with aren't.
comment in response to post
I expected coffee was one that was going to go up and people were going to be caught off guard. You see, coffee beans are not a famously American crop. (Nor is Tim's a famously American company) I hoped this would be one that got the regular folks to notice things were going to turn troubling.

I can't wait until this hits Reddit and someone has to explain why this joke is funny and that AI one from last week wasn't.

Does he still live with his parents? That house looks like my grandma's in 1990.

Proff there's this card shop near me that is open like 12-5 on weekdays and no Sunday hours, and no website???? How do shops like that stay open but these beautiful full-serve places with competent owners keep crashing?

The bird flu is the largest contribution. Packaging/factory material, fuel, and greed are secondary issues. Important also to remember the size of the US; each state has its own economy. The poster of the image lives in an expensive area to begin with. But, that is a 3x increase over last month's

Are you outside of the US and trying to understand the situation?

They seem to like starting fires to claim credit for putting them out. If this was truly about American industry, they would have had an ease-in plan an an out. Instead they are scaring us, offending our allies into enemies, and yo-yoing so much the stock market is diving. Only helping the rich.

Use that as a launching point to reinforce changing views at any opportunity. "Yeah, they've been pretty good for years now, but the oil lobbies keep fighting off the change" "Yeah, they actually outperform the T's in such and such way, but it's hard to get people to listen." And so on
