Me, noticing Riker: "I don't get it. Why is Abraham Lincoln here?"

Me, finally noticing Picard: "KILL IT WITH FIRE!"

And yet it still has a bunch of ads for PC+ littered throughout it. Despite being grandfathered in, I abandoned it earlier this year for Podcast Republic, which hasn't spammed me or locked me out of any features I've tried to play with despite not having paid them anything.

Hasbro might relinquish Wizards, though.

Unfortunately, it's likely to be to another corporate entity that will try to squeeze every last drop out of it.

Honestly, I'd take a woody window to replace the clear glass overlooking the scenic parking lot outside literally any of the apartments I've ever lived in.

Holy shit, someone that actually likes that aural abomination?

Are you the reason it won't fucking die?

Self checkouts tend to have a hand scanner too

I'm going to guess that this is regional or vendor specific, because I've literally never seen a self-checkout with a hand scanner. And if I ever did, I would expect it to transform into a broken, dangling cable within a few months.

Meanwhile, stores all but stop manning existing checkouts, forcing everyone to line up to check out their own stuff.

In business, all data are vanity metrics. If they make you look good, you slap that shit on everything; if they make you look bad, you "don't have it".

It's just that sometimes you can use negative data to make decisions that look good to those above you, and sometimes you know that you can't.

their value comes from them being relevant

The news's value should be to society, though, not shareholders?

GM: "You experience bij."

Edit: You'd think I'd know to check what autocorrect does to what I type by now.

Funny, I thought the Red River drained into Fargo.

Yeah, I'm wounded by the ~~commission~~ omission of Cape Breton. But I think it's just that there's nothing dubious about our islands.

Edit: Sausage fingers and rogue autocorrect.
