I've never seen an illuminated logo from manufacturers other than those I've listed. Large, sure. Though some like Kia or Hyundai I haven't seen get huge. Honda, maybe?

"African American culture is the antithesis to your argument. Even the most wealthy individuals sporting logos of all kinds, literally as status symbols."

Really you're describing the difference between striking it rich and generational wealth.

"Free"

The amount of money that those conferences cost my job and the amount of time I spend blocking cold calls from vendors that gave me shwag...

DevOps guy here mostly working at scale in AWS. Learning docker should be priority 1 alongside learning Linux basics. Ansible should be second IF the plan is launching docker containers on a VM as opposed to a server less option (example: AWS Fargate)

A congressman intervened to help former President Donald Trump’s social media company jump the line for a difficult-to-obtain foreign-worker visa to bring a company executive to the U.S., according to interviews and records reviewed by ProPublica.

A former staffer for Rep. Don Bacon, a Nebraska Republican, said the congressman personally instructed her to help Trump Media, even though she thought it was inappropriate to mix politics with the office’s constituent services duties.

Hidyho.

A few months ago I was watching a YouTube video of a woman bottling her kombucha. She had bottlecaps that would bulge when the carbonation was just right.

I looked for those tonight via searching on Google but couldn't really find the right thing.

Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

This would be perfect for my kombucha and water kefir tester bottles.
