It's not really down from 25%. It's still up 15% points from just a few months ago.

I treat my banking app like a game. I need to hit zero as fast as I can.

Has anyone ever tried to change the cabin A/C filter in a 2008 Mazda 3? I feel like I need another vacation after doing just that. I had to buy new tools. And I already have a lot of tools.

They're selling large luggage, too large for the cabin, well inside the airport terminal in Milano. So you're supposed to buy it and then exit the terminal to check it in?

I think we recognize this as a "Poland in 1939" situation. We should have done more in 2014 - which I see as a "Czechoslovakia in 1938" situation. A lot of similarities between Putin and Hitler's way of invading and justification for it.

A friendly guy walks up to me like he's my friend. After a short talk, he gave me a nice bracelet and one I can give to my girlfriend... and then he asks for money. I returned the bracelets immediately.

I already know this scam well and how it works, but social engineering is no joke.

Staying in a rented apartment on my vacation in Italy. The owner just leave the router login visible on the device and I could login.

If you rent out your place on Booking, Airbnb etc, please don't make this mistake.

Major power outage in Prague and surrounding areas in Czech Republic. It happened exactly at 12:00 CEST which is very suspicious.

I wonder if it's a cyber attack.

Why can't they leap to "it's God's will we now have modern medicine"?

I wonder if any of these people have heard about 'ectopic pregnancy' or 'fallopian tube' - and what happens when the fertilized egg starts to grow there.

The women literally bleeds to death by internal bleeding.

If you read "Argentina" and "Nazi materials" in the same sentence, it should be pretty clear.

Want to hear something wild? The remaining Communists here in Czech Republic supports Trump.

They also want to celebrate the Soviet Union for liberating the country, even though it became a coup and eventually an occupation.

US also liberated parts of this country... and left.

Microsoft drops law firm Simpson Thacher, that made a deal with Trump, hired Jenner & Block who decided to fight back against Trump.

Together with the news that Microsoft pledged to protect their operations and data in Europe, is good news.

Good to see a corporation stand up against tyranny.

The government funded ARPANET, which turned into the internet. The thing you're using now.

Other government funded research includes touchscreens, voice recognition, GPS, Internet, Wi-Fi, semiconductors, solar energy...

Everything with great commercial success. Not very socialistic.

And yes, both Hawking and Einstein's work were (at least in part) funded by governments in Germany, US and UK.

Newton lived in a completely different time, but he was also funded (directly and indirectly) by the state.

Government funding isn't socialism. The total cost of having GPS is $50-60 billion, funded by taxpayers.

The estimated contribution to the US economy from that: $1.4 trillion. You can use it for free and make money from it, just like Garmin, Google, Apple, Agritech, FedEx, Uber etc etc etc etc etc.

At least with the DEI policies, people would still be hired based on merits. Now they're just hiring their friends, families, people giving them a lot of money and people praising Trump.

The way Trump is tanking the economy, Buffet might actually end up in the poor house.

Really a great bit. I grew up watching Conan in the 90's in Denmark on the NBC Europe channel. So stupid and silly, but seriously funny.

I had to look this up. It seemed too cringe to be true.

In those times, rich people were usually always portrayed with a yacht cap for some reason ๐Ÿ˜‚
