When Michael O'Leary has a chance to save money, he definitely doesn't give a fuck about your military industrial complex and its intellectual property.

Fun fact: he supposedly turned down the chance to host The Apprentice, because he's actually capable of running a business instead.

Do you think Trump got confused by the whole red team / blue team thing being different?

Zelenskyy's best option is to move to Florida and let Trump beat him at golf every week.

It's kind of absurd. When you buy a TV, the bloated adware at least helps lower the price. Imagine paying extra for it.

Oh it's not wrong, it's just bad timing. And he's very sorry about Putin's soldiers dying.

No, they tried to tax links to news, so facebook just took the links away.

I'm saying tax or regulate the platform itself.

Edit: to give a practical example off the top of my head: tariff foreign advertising services targeting Canadians (or even more broadly), use that to subsidise media.

This was such a huge own goal. They need to fix this asap.

I'm not saying put things back the way they were, but stop the disincentive for real news. Maybe tax social media and subsidise journalism, or otherwise regulate them in some way.

I really want to know how they did this, and how much the fire spread after the initial attack.

That place was clearly designed not to all blow the fuck up at once.
