We should all be able to easily know what our food is and where it comes from so we can better make our individual decisions on what we and our families ingest.
You mean like all the fucking companies who keep adding animal products and byproducts into the food they sell? As an example, I'm vegan and lactose intolerant and I have to avoid most vinegar chips because those idiots put lactose in them. I mean, I know I have to avoid cheese-flavoured chips, but vinegar? What a bunch of morans.
The ball of gas and dust, sometimes referred to as the "Christmas comet," was named 46P/Wirtanen, after the astronomer Carl Wirtanen, who discovered it in 1948.
If it was discovered in 1948, why is it named "46P/Wirtanen"? Why not "48P/Wirtanen"? And what does "P" mean? It's certainly not part of "COMET".
And why is it in the "number slash name" format anyway? Wouldn't it be better to call it "Wirtanen 48"?
"Building 8, the division Facebook created in 2016 to house some of its most ambitious projects, has been disbanded and the projects have been redistributed to other groups within the social media company," reports Mashable.
That's the problem with sjws. They're cunts. One person can out-vote a majority or cause a lot of damage given their incredible motivations for their own agendas.

I'm not asking for an 85W 64-cores CPU in the MacBook Air, but even the iPhones and iPads have been at least quad-core for a number of years now. Heck there's even quad-core Atom CPUs so surely there is a quad-core i3 that could fit inside the MacBook Air.
Step 1: buy metal briefcase Step 2: buy 2018 Mac mini Step 3: Buy display that fits inside the cover of the briefcase Step 4: buy the most lightweight UPS you can find that will power both your Mac mini and display for as many hours as you need Step 5: buy reliable keyboard Step 6: put everything in the briefcase
Voilà, portable Mac with a 17" display and a reliable keyboard.
Someone that hated Macs wouldn't have produced the iMac Pro, the new Mac mini, and soon the updated Mac Pro... They did have a bit of a pause on decent hardware updates, but that drought has ended.
I'll give you the new Mac mini because it is exactly what most people have been asking, down to the selection of ports at the back. The only missing thing is a user-replaceable m.2 SSD and maybe easier-to-access SODIMM slots and given the new higher price it should come with 16GB instead of 8GB.
I can't give you the iMac Pro because it's idiotic to try and cram a powerful server-class computer into a thin-for-no-reason desktop case. Its RAM slots are not user-accessible and yet it's supposed to be a computer for Pros.
I can't give you the yet-to-be-announced Mac Pro because nobody has anything on it yet.
But saying the drought has ended when all of their laptops are shipping with extremely fragile and useless keyboards, their new MacBook Air only has a dual-core CPU in 2018 and a supposedly "HD" facetime camera that's almost as bad as a two-decades-old webcam, all of this despite a nearly 20% price increase?
Supposedly "pro" laptops without physical function keys and tiny arrow keys in one of the worst possible layout I've seen?
I'm sorry, but no. The drought is still there for some of the Macs.

Amazon used to have a six-pack of Smartwater for 6.99$.
Now it's going to be a 24-pack of Smartwater for 37.20$.
So either the size of the bottles has changed or each bottle of Smartwater will now cost 1.55$ instead of 1.17$, which is a 32.5% price increase.

Wow, talk about a coincidence. I haven't had a TV in over two decades!
Wouldn't it be better as "Samesong"?

It's funny that the article about a laptop called Gram gives its weight in pounds.
The weight is 1361 grams, by the way.
Believe it or not, not all computer users are 20-something with 20/20 vision that don't mind computer screens the size of toys.

Gotta sell those laptops with defective keyboards as soon as possible to rack in as much repair fees as possible once they get out of warranty!
