I did some projects (I’m in HVAC) at a few of these Apple sites. Just random brown buildings scattered throughout San Jose. Seemed odd considering the size of their HQ.

Then the current administration doesn’t either, because no one’s going after Facebook.

I mean he literally said he wanted to ban it because it was a threat to national security. I’m no trump fan, but I distinctly remember this.

I hate to say it, but remember when Trump said we should ban TikTok?

That’s a really solid point, and I have no legitimate counter to it. But also the town that has a SARS lab is where a SARS virus originates and we are skeptical it came from the lab, and convinced it was from a wet market? If I show up with a piece of Swedish furniture that we need to build and the instructions have no words only pictures, you’re going to be pretty fucking convinced it’s from IKEA even if I continue to say it’s not.
rayinreverse t1_jacqsyi wrote
Why is the wet market in Wuhan the source of this virus and NOT much larger markets in Guangdong with far higher trade numbers? Probably has something to do with the fact Wuhan is the site of the most intensive programme of research on SARS-like viruses in the world, and among those viruses was one that was 96.2 per cent the same as SARS-CoV-2

As a model nerd, I really love this.
As a human that realizes $24 million could do a lot for underprivileged Canadians, it sort of makes me sick.

To bankers and the people they spend money on, he does. Symbolically. There will be so much media attention on this and it will be framed first and constantly that he was a crypto guy. Not a thief. A fraud, liar, cheat. A crypto guy.

He basically represents crypto. The bankers are DYING for him to be found guilty. I’d be willing to bet the case is strong.

Rates increase with utilities, because the extraction industry can be volatile. A cable company with shitty customer service, an aging infrastructure, and no service change is just raising rates because they can. Keep in mind Comcast annual gross profit for 2020 was $37.334B. They’re raising rates because they’re not increasing profit. Not that they’re losing money or unprofitable. Just didn’t GROW.

Reply to TIL that Kurt Cobain got the inspiration to make Nirvana's famous song "Smells Like Teen Spirit" when Kathleen Hanna, the singer of the band "Bikini Kill" wrote "Kurt smells like teen spirit" on a board. Teen Spirit was a woman's deodorant and he didn't knew it until he was done with the song. by WonderfulWanderer777
It’s not like Smells Like Teen Spirit was actually in a single lyric. Pretty sure this story is BS. Kathleen Hanna probably did say that, but naming the song that was very intentional.
