Luckin Coffee also opened a nearby location in the past few months. With inflation pushing costs up for companies like Starbucks, it’s nice to see cheaper options, though I can’t help wondering how they pull it off...

I am actually sad to have to say this since I have admired much about Disney CEO Bob Iger over the years, but what a profoundly quisling move this is by someone who knows better. It’s shameful and he has tarnished his once proud reputation.

Apple should let users to limit network access to specific apps. I have this game that I love named offline games and they’re now starting to track so many things it’s becoming disturbing. Feels scary scammy

Here, the color within the glass reflects the surrounding environment, creating a 3D, sideways reflection. This doesn’t resemble how glass interacts with objects placed on a table; rather, it mimics how glass behaves when objects are levitating, with content visible behind them.

Government efficiency is when every federal agency has to send a daily emergency email to its workers telling them to ignore another daily email from a different department trying to fire them without knowing what their jobs are.

La France n’est pas loin du chaos politique que l’on a aux États-Unis depuis bientôt trois semaines. L’amateurisme, la haine du journalisme, les tendances fascistes. Ces signes sont déjà visible à l’extrême droite comme à l’extrême gauche française. Il reste deux ans pour changer de cap
