Former Canada Prime Minister Jean Chrétien: "I have message for American friends...never mistake our generosity for weakness. Never mistake our tolerance for lack of determination. And never, never mistake our kindness for softness...We bow to no one."

16 years ago Google pulled its search engine out of China because they wouldn’t submit to an authoritarian government.

Today, they’re renaming lakes to appease one.

The time Dolly Parton and Kermit jammed to Sly and the Family Stone.

This is always how I will remember her.

Remember when they said Zelensky desecrated the sanctity of the White House by not wearing a suit

[The Breakdown @TheBreakdownAB]

WOW!

Today Smith tried to perpetuate her spin on what duty to consult means and how it applies...

And Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew was having NONE of it!

Printers haven't improved in 20 years because improving them would destroy the most profitable business model in consumer hardware.

HP made $4.2 billion in printing revenue last quarter. Ink cartridge margins run 60-70%. Hardware margins are close to zero. The entire business depends on you buying a $30 printer and spending $300 a year on ink to feed it.

Every possible improvement works against that math. Longer-lasting cartridges, more efficient printing, better paper handling that wastes fewer pages. All of those shrink the $4.2 billion number. So instead of improving the printer, HP spent two decades improving the lock-in. Firmware updates that brick third-party cartridges. Subscription plans that disable your printer if you cancel. Chips on cartridges that report "empty" at 40% remaining. Region-locked ink.

Canon and Epson run the same playbook. Three companies control 75%+ of the consumer printer market and all three discovered the same thing: the customer already accepted that printers suck. There is zero competitive pressure to make them better because nobody switches printer brands expecting improvement.

The setup experience still feels like 2004 because the setup was never where the money was. The money was always in the cartridge you replace six weeks later.

Just a reminder that DOGE failed at every possible level:

* At the micro level, they misread, misled and straight up lied about many of the 'savings'. They'd announce '500m saved!' and it would be some contract where the money was 98% already spent and already wasn't being renewed.
* At the macro level, they didn't impact spending at all. The government spent more in 2025 than 2024.
* At the institutional level, they didn't even convince the GOP that deficits are a problem worth caring about. The GOP only signature bill in 2025 exploded the deficit by trillions of dollars.
* At a personal level, Elon got run out of town with his tail between his legs. The most notable public facts about the Cracked Coders are that one of them was a mini-Hitler, one was called 'big balls', and none of them bothered to learn how the government actually works before they set it on fire.

They gutted a bunch of important institutions, fired whole departments at random, decimated medical research funding, killed millions of people dependent on USAID, and still failed at every possible level.

Wait, so Trump is bringing people from Latin America illegally into the US?

vance was flying around the world lecturing other leaders about free speech while Americans have to beg Canadians to send video of a '60 Minutes' segment that was blocked in the US for being critical of the trump administration.

@Uber_Support My Uber Eats order was quoted at 30 min, took over an hour with no driver assigned, food sat cold, and support closed the chat. Need this resolved.

@FoodProfessor I’ve valued your contributions to the food sector, but this politicized rhetoric feels divisive and off-brand. Hoping you’ll refocus on balanced, research-driven insights. Are you fact checking right wing intellectuals as well?

@Rumrunner11 @Archy1958 @johnbco12 @FoodProfessor Appreciate you bringing specifics.. sound like a leader of opposition.
