Yes, but the judge is right wing hack and doesn't care.

Do they mean Democrats would prefer another candidate or Repuplicans would?

That's probably true for both parties. A large majority of voters didn't want a Biden/Trump rematch, but here we are.

Most people shouldn't buy a home printer at all anymore. Unless you're a crafter or work in a field that still uses lots of paper (i.e. law) they're not worth it.

It's a rapidly shrinking market and HP knows there's no saving it so I guess they're following the cable company playbook.

Squeeze your remaining customers as hard as possible before the music stops

And it hasn't been tested because researching the "best" method for executing humans is abhorrent and the scientific and medical communities have ethical standards.

But the State of Alabama doesn't, a feature it shares with other regimes responsible for the worst atrocities in history.

Oh, I very much doubt that he's the only billionaire who's written a letter like this to Google in the past year.

You're not wrong, but it's not just the UI on the kiosk, it's the whole checkout process. A trained cashier on a real checkout line is much faster because the machine isn't nerfed and trying to hold their hand while preventing them from stealing. The real problem is the stores are trying to shift the labor onto the customer but the customer isn't getting much benefit for the effort nor has any motivation to be particularly honest in light of having this chore thrown in their lap.

I don't think they can redesign the UI to overcome that. It's not really a UI problem, it's a conflict of interests problem and they're not going to solve that unless they completely redesign the checkout process. The little Amazon convenience stores that know what you have as you shop seem like a better approach, but I'm guessing they're not all they're cracked up to be since they haven't seemed to catch on that much.

The impact to the timeline form the Narada affected the timeline before that point as well because it affected subsequent time travel (allllll the times SNW, TOS, TNG, VOY, DS9, etc. went into the past would have occurred differently)

Short answer, maybe, but go through your installed apps first & get rid of crap you don't use. Even if you still decide to do a factory reset, no sense re-downloading garbage apps. Your phone is still modern enough it shouldn't feel slow day-to-day so it's probably one or more shitty apps causing the problem.

Unless they're really into arts and crafts, there's no good reason for a home user to buy an inkjet anymore.

If every once in a while they want a nice photo print or to print up some flyers in color or something, it's cheaper and less overall hassle to just pay per page at a drug store or office store on those occasions.

You might have a point there. Maybe... just maybe... this Musk fellow is completely full of shit about most things he says.

We should try making bribery illegal again. That would be fun.
