Ding ding ding. Its possible to pass off dark patterns as jokes and jokes to become dark patterns when the joke isn't funny anymore

PepsiCo is Tesla's first semi customer? I mean... That makes total sense given that PepsiCo is an international sponsor of war and Elon is... Kinda clearly a Russian asset

Not about being in the us specifically. But about keeping your manufacturing near your entire supply chain.

But the uncertainty of what will come soon for tariffs is

From a business perspective: more control over the manufacturing process and less risk of getting hit by tariffs

I stopped buying keyboard phones when the manufacturers stopped selling them to me. They don't actually care what the market demands, they care about what the market will accept with the highest profit margins. A mid-spec phone with a keyboard coming in under the price of a flagship should actually be a feasible product, but by creating that product, you're reducing your profit/unit just that little bit...

The modern flat icons are actually… A little insidious in their conception. They're based on industrial psychology and mid-century modern propaganda. They make your phone just that bit more addictive. It's not someone convincing management it's a recreation of the Mona Lisa, it's management coming down to the graphics department and saying “You need to make it more addictive”

For sure. In that moment Gore was wrong, powerful, and inflexible. He wound up being more flexible than his Republican counterparts, but I think you're well within your rights to say they've never properly repented for those actions. They've mostly just kinda been like "its in the past, just let it be in the past" when it's like... Man, you were an arms dealer in the culture war. You got the power and the platform to combat climate change by harming queer, black, and queer and black kids.
