Renato Bialetti, the Italian businessman, well-known for popularizing the Moka Express coffee maker, was buried in this moka pot.

Well, maybe he wants to buy Twitter.

Yup, he'd be in jail instead.

Yes, and while Charles Darrow, who became the first millionaire game inventor due to the game's success, profited substantially from royalties, Lizzie Magie, the original creator of the game’s concept, sold her patent for just $500 and received no royalties.

Ha, I knew those penguins weren't trustworthy.

I just watched the debate. It's true that Vance is better than Trump when it comes to rhetoric, but that's not difficult. The sad thing is that many people seem to only care about how someone says something and not at all about what someone says.

What's with the boomer stuff? Does the internet really need any bogeymen to blame for everything bad? Seems to be the case. So it's hardly surprising that people like Trump are so successful. It's the same thing, just packaged differently

I haven't seen the debate yet (cause time difference). I expect one guy spewing mostly hate and some made up stuff and one guy trying to make any sense of what his opponent says and try to fact check at least some of that. No substantial debate about anything actually important but an all American show as usual. I'm looking forward to that.

That's cute and all, but it's also pretty much what Google, Facebook, Apple, Microsoft, Spotify and all the other tech giants are doing when they're joyfully tracking what people are doing without their knowledge or consent.

I find it quite strange that "old and weird" seems to work better than "corrupt and criminal".

A workers' song.

This is a cover, but probably the most famous version. Original by Merle Travis.

A system that appoints supreme constitutional judges for life and without even halfway serious democratic checks and balances seems to me the perfect recipe for disaster and corruption. But hey, I'm from Europe, so what do I know... ¯_(ツ)_/¯
