Don Jr really can't stop saying the dumbest things and making himself or whoever he's talking about look worse in the process. I'd say the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, but I honestly think he's actually even less aware than his dad.

That's what I was going to point out. Beside that sounding like the most obvious scam domain ever, reading it at face value would indicate that the Republicans think their supporters are a bunch of addicts. Did they fire everyone with any marketing background or are they all so far down the rabbit hole that this sounds perfectly reasonable to them?

Money well spent Alberta. Keep doubling down on propping up an unstable, temperamental, speculation prone, polluting industry with a great track record of improving the lives of all Albertans. If you're in a hole, keep digging.

Sure, but let's all agree it could be worse.

If it were added to this meme, it'd have a reaction somewhere between the Supra and the Eclipse. Something like "oh, okay".

What do you mean? At least the new WRX is still a sedan, still AWD, still has a boxer, and can still be bought as a manual.

Sure, it's making about the same horsepower as 20 years ago, and it got progressively heavier as Subaru needed to add more safety equipment to remain compliant, but it's nowhere near as bad as Ford and Mitsubishi taking legendary name plates and slapping them on crossover SUVs.

Having lived and worked in several countries, I think the concept of Jantelagen is rooted in the Protestant Reformation more than it being a specifically Nordic thing. Not only does it fit well with the general premise of the Protestant worldview, all countries that were early converts seem to have ingrained that particular perspective (under various names) in their collective cultures.

Jag är rädd att de gör det redan, och det är precis därför att de föreslår den här idén.

Wait, what? That can't be a real thing. That would mean a sufficiently large company has potential job action cases every day. The investigative cost would be astronomical, not to mention the time wasted.

This sounds like a lot of fun. Enough to convince me to buy the PC port of the game at least. Can't wait to try it out!

I mean, a rainbow Gadsden flag makes some kind of sense if you forget all the recent associations. At face value it could be as simple as saying that you don't want the government to tread on your rights as an LGBTQ citizen. If you go one layer deeper and look at it as a symbol of the fight for freedom during the American revolution, it still works - Freedom for LGBTQ people to be who they are.

As a former Reverb G2 v2 owner (who recently sold his setup at fire sale prices because of this sunsetting by MS) I am very disappointed by this move. Why brick a bunch of perfectly functional devices and create a massive amount of e-waste in the process?

Why not just freeze WMR in place, stop feature development, but keep the functionality around? I can't imagine bug fixing and driver updates cost Microsoft any substantial amount of resources, given how they pretty much dropped doing any of that after 2022.

It makes no sense to me and feels like management wanting to make a statement, more than a reasonable business decision. Especially since this move directly conflicts their stated sustainability goals and directives.

It's almost like the company is trying really hard to wash their hands clean of the HoloLens exec they fired for misconduct a while ago in the most scorched earth way possible or something.
