Hell, Microsoft and Apple did the same thing decades ago. Microsoft offered computer discounts to high schools and colleges, so that the students would be used to (and demand) Microsoft when they went into the business world. Apple then undercut that by offering very discounted products to elementary and junior high schools, so that the students would want Apple products in higher education and the business world.

The tactic let them write off all the discounts on their taxes, but lock in customers and raise prices on business (and eventually consumer) goods.

Polls suggest that most Cuban American registered voters, who tend to be Republican, continue to support Mr. Trump

security researchers […] are revealing a collection of vulnerabilities they found in 17 audio accessories that use Google’s Fast Pair protocol and are sold by 10 different companies: Sony, Jabra, JBL, Marshall, Xiaomi, Nothing, OnePlus, Soundcore, Logitech, and Google itself.

Considering that Alexis Ohanian is involved, it looks like he wants another bite at the apple, so it’ll likely go downhill pretty quickly.

It’s stealing our water, poisoning our land, is helping erode trust in institutions and each other, hallucinates, gives bad advice and worse summaries, bothers our hearing, raises our electricity rates dramatically, all but ensures we won’t meet our climate goals, offers us nothing of value, is something none of us wanted and most of us hate, is constantly being pushed down our throats, and is intended to allow the wealthy to access the benefits of the talented while preventing the talented from accessing the benefits of wealth.

AI is a cancer and must be destroyed.

You think he knows or cares what a Nobel Prize actually looks like? Get a fake medal from MedalsAreUs, spray paint it gold, put it on a really fancy ribbon and put it in a pretty box.

No one would dare point out it was fake, and even if it he realized it himself, he’d never mention it to anyone else.

I do not know this person, and yet I can already tell that he’s an idiot.

Oh hey - thanks for that!

Not sure “hidden” is the right word, but whatever. The link to the map is here.

it’s due to Farage’s connection to the right-wing organiser Steve Bannon, who we now know was incredibly close to Epstein in his final years.

Seems like he might’ve been interested:

Farage observed that if he’d been of a different generation, he too would have probably come into contact with Epstein. “Had I been 10 years older, I would have done, because they were the circles … ”

Also it’s raining , so I can’t go now or I’ll get wet.

I don’t see where his wife is a gold digger. According to the article, he’s fallen for repeated scams and, the way they work is that once you’ve fallen for one scam, they sell your information to other scammers as an easy mark. As her spouse, he probably has access to all her money; if they get divorced, she’ll at least be able to protect her half of their assets.

Because it’s quick, it’s easy, and it’s free!
