Torres’ consistent standing ten toes down for Israel despite all the demographic and economic interests of his district having nothing to do with it tell me that Mossad hacked his hard drive long ago and this is the only way he keeps us from seeing the horrors within. He speaks with fear in his eye

Massive props to the junior Walmart exec who successfully pitched “we should corner the market on MicroSD Express cards and undercut Nintendo by selling double the storage for the same price.” Based off this packaging design, your power lunch with the graphic design team paid off big time!

- performance is no joke
- hardware build is top notch
- the LCD screen is quite good(I still miss OLED tho)
- way too heavy for extended play before bed now
- it’s big enough and speakers are good enough that I want to use tabletop mode now

Take Sam Altman and Jony Ive out of it and you can see the obvious similarities between Humane and io are still pretty clear. I have slightly more faith in Ive to ship a product that isn’t hot garbage like, but they’re definitely pulling the annoying vague magic leap strat that has doomed so many

@reckless.bsky.social Do I recall correctly that you said you’d cop a PHEV SUV if it did 50 miles of range? If so, will you be a man of your word and return from leave one RAV4 poorer? www.theverge.com/news/671999/...

If A24 bids $5 mil for a Japanese film at a festival do they pay $10 mil for it? Are movie theaters going to have to charge double for tickets sold to Illumination movies (made in France)?
