WHO calls for cigarette-style cancer warnings on alcohol packaging
  • No thanks. I don't want the back wall of my bar to look like a snuff film. I'm all for making it clear to consumers that alcohol is a major carcinogen but maybe start with alcohol advertising and education?

  • Goodbye americano, hello long black? The new coffee order that's becoming a UK favourite
  • The aroma would be better since the crema isn't destroyed by dumping hot water on it. Your average coffee drinker probably won't notice a difference but half the experience is in the mind. Long Black's are extremely common in Australia.

    Funnily enough, I once worked at a Starbucks in Canada where our Americanos were actually long blacks just by a quirk in how our line was set up. You'd fill the hot water first before it got to the barista.

  • MAGA struggles with FEMA
  • Once the election was called I told everyone I'd been warning that for the next 4 years I'm not going to be saying "I told you so" lest my lungs give out but I want them to remember and imagine me saying it because I'm thinking it. Nothing else for me to do at this point.

  • What are your favorite games for killing nazis?
  • I don't know if anything really tops Wolfenstein TNO. Right from the get-go you're running through a trench dual-wielding machine guns and just shredding Nazis like you're mowing grass. Plus you can personally stomp Hitler's face in! 10/10 experience.

  • Senator Ted Cruz is trying to block Wi-Fi hotspots for schoolchildren
  • Why do these fuckers spend so much time and effort trying to make things worse? Like there's scapegoating immigrants because it'll rile up your voter base and get you re-elected and then there's shit like taking away lunch from kids. Like who does that even benefit?

    I'm genuinely asking if they just get giddy with excitement at the thought of making things worse for other people.

  • HDMI 2.2 will require new “Ultra96” cables, whenever we have 8K TVs and content
  • A buddy of mine worked in a theatre and told me that the film's were all 1080P. I called bullshit. Those screens were huge they were clearly 4K. He showed me the reel and yup he was right.

    If theatres don't even bother with 4K, your TV doesn't need 8K.

  • But "socialism" is a scary word
  • One hurdle we have to deal with is the assumption by the general public that markets = capitalism.

    You tell people capitalism has failed them and they worry that you mean to take away their ability to buy a latte.
