The cons themselves are marketing. Heavy marketing. If you can’t see that, I don’t know what to say. Vendors (and even artists for crying out loud) are willing to pay top dollar for booths to sell stuff. On the surface, they are their namesake - conventions. Dig any deeper, and they are giant pop-up malls.

Nah. FDA definitions exist to make large corporations more money. There isn’t much else to it.

They do, though.

You need to check things. There are at least 47 packages, so NefoFetch isn’t reporting the correct number.

I read the manual for printing and… I’m so sorry.

Yeah, people seem to have mostly forgotten about the forced audio playback that was really prevalent for a while. It was crazy effective because you would have to hint down the actual ad causing the issue on the page to stop it.

Without fail, I try to use the wrong charger for my razor and every time I remind myself to label it. It’s been about 6 years.

I didn’t think I’d get a chance to use this again.

I am particularly fond of this time period. I am in a massive creative slump, though :(

Unrelated impassioned argument that was meant for another thread, complete with comment mitosis.

That’s more of a foot chese thing, really.

Computer, do that weird thing with your tongue again.

This is very fair. I still think that the headline is predominantly click bait, though.

As someone in the space (a career machinist) this is interesting. Spinner doesn’t make remarkable machines. They are pretty bog standard work horses from my experience. You’d also need to get all of the bells and whistles to hit the needed €275,000 average per machine at that rate. My guess is that this was the best new equipment that they could feasibly obtain.

As another commenter pointed out, why would a company that averages making about 1,000 machines per year risk everything over 20? They are small fry in this space, and these dealings could easily damage the company beyond repair. Something definitely seems weird about this.

This headline seems disingenuous in a way, since IDF service is mandatory. It could be any Israeli, with any set of beliefs. I haven’t read enough about this person to know what their stance on things actually is, but this really seems like a bad faith headline.

Cazadores are inevitable.

I traded in my pedal collection for a GT-3 decades ago, and I won’t look back.

I have been consistently playing EverQuest for 26 years now. I’m not sure it’s a phase.
