Nikki Haley is acting like Ron DeSantis isn't even in the race anymore — and DeSantis' campaign isn't spending on ads at all. Here's a breakdown of their closing arguments before Tuesday's primary.

 

A year ago, China lifted its draconian COVID restrictions. Many expected the country to bounce back quickly. That hasn't happened.

 

Apple said sales of its Series 9 and Ultra 2 smartwatches would be halted this week after it lost a case over whether the tech giant stole a patented blood oxygen feature from another company.

 

The Food and Drug Administration is working with Ecuadorian authorities to investigate Negasmart, who has been supplying cinnamon to the three recalled applesauce brands.

 

X recently claimed to support the press advocacy group Reporters Without Borders — which in response called X "a haven for disinformation."

"It proves that Google’s app store practices are illegal and they abuse their monopoly to extract exorbitant fees, stifle competition and reduce innovation."

Worked for a small publisher that nixed a couple of mobile app projects (that I thought would be really cool) because of the monopoly position Google has. I really dislike how mobile programming is gated by Google+Apple.

 

Trump insiders are working behind the scenes on detailed plans to amass his power so that he can carry out an unprecedented restructuring of the U.S. government and expand executive authority.

For decades, government scientists have toiled away trying to make nuclear fusion work. Will commercial companies sprint to the finish?

This guy nails it. I completely missed how the open AI drama was, at bottom, a marketing blitz.

The world is weird as fuck.

 

Thousands of Swedish workers are rallying behind 120 Tesla mechanics. The workers are boycotting Teslas until the company signs a contract. Even postal workers may stop delivering mail.

 

Aaron Ford had said he wouldn’t look into criminal charges, but things have changed.

 

Gov. Ron DeSantis won a decisive reelection in 2022, in a year when Republicans elsewhere didn't fare as well. But now that he's running for president, some in Florida wish he'd do his job at home.

I, for one, would like to see more water-based everything. Especially motion pictures. For instance, a movie about that swimming guy, what was his name? Aquatic Man was it?

The link to the source of the data was broken and I didn't search around but I was curious how they defined inherited. To be in this class, did they have to inherit a billion dollars? A million? Come from upper middle class? If close to 30 percent are inheriting upwards of a billion, that is a lot.

And look at Russia, yikes! Shows a deep corruption. How that country doesn't devolve into a Venezuela/Liberia/take-your-pick, I do not know

Interesting, I had no idea, fluffy contrails look so innocuous. Makes me wonder, is there any post-industrial human activity that isn't disaster?
