"The Canon Cat is a task-dedicated microcomputer released by Canon Inc. in 1987 for $1,495. Its appearance resembles dedicated word processors of the late 1970s to early 1980s, but it is far more powerful, and has many unique ideas for data manipulation.

"I find it interesting to observe that not only was Jobs proven spectacularly correct due to his focus on what he believed the customers would want rather than what he personally preferred, but that Raskin wasn’t even able to keep the price below $1,000 in the end."

USAID has been very beneficial for Axel Springer's Politico media company and for very many others.

"It has been one Victory after another since. The Death of DIE (in government). No “birthrate” citizenship. Deportations of those who broke the law. The 51 intelligence Officials and Experts who swore Biden’s Son’s laptop was “Russian disinformation” (in Trump’s effort to “steal” a second election) banned from entering Federal buildings. “Climate change” purged from government websites. Acknowledgement gain-of-lethality experiments by mad scientists caused covid. No more serving children debilitating drugs in service to a lunatic theory. “Gender” banished and sex restored. CDC removes transgender lunacy from their sites. Women crying now brings only scorn, not angst and surrender.

"No men allowed to play women’s sports. Forcing Trudeau to behave. Cutting off USAID and purging the Expertocracy. South Africa called out. Panama dug out. Withdrawing from the UN Human Rights Council. Going after NPR for pretending to be non-profit. Dismantling the Department of Education.

"Those are only a few of the victories. There were so many in so short a time that it’s hard to recall them all. It has left Experts and the woke reeling, or dispirited.

"For now. Only for now. History teaches one thing, and that is that politics are endless. All victory is fleeting. But they are to be enjoyed. And extended in length and scope as far as humanely possible."

Trump will rename it Mar-a-Gaza

According to RFK, a researcher named Dan Olmsted "was very curious about unvaccinated populations, and the Amish are one of those populations, so he went and he did a study of the Amish."

"Following the national trends, there should have been about 2,000 autism cases. And they were able to find three."

"And all of them were children who had been adopted by the Amish after receiving their vaccines. Of the Amish in general, they could not find any."

"Crimean students and educational institutions help soldiers protect frontline communications

"The idea itself was born spontaneously - a soldier I knew approached me with a request to help provide communications at his positions - enemy electronic warfare systems were suppressing their communications, and switching them to lower frequencies made it possible to restore them. Together with the guys, we happily made such examples and decided that if this is useful, we can expand production and help other soldiers," the developers say.

"Experts fear the decision by Meta to drop professional factcheckers from Facebook will exacerbate so-called boomer radicalisation in the UK.
Even before what Keir Starmer described as “far-right riots” in England last summer, alarm bells were ringing amid fears older people were even more susceptible to misinformation and radicalisation than younger “digital natives”."

"Another caveat is that people should not feel inclined to vocally support positions that Trump is obviously just staking out as a negotiating move, before any actual firm “decision” has been made. Trump’s recent mystifying statements on Gaza are a good example of this. I don’t know what prompted these, but I sincerely doubt that Trump actually plans for the US to occupy the Gaza Strip (which sounds like it would be terrible).

"In the same way I can’t stand people saying that these statements prove Trump is over, compromised, etc., I also can’t stand people saying that this is a fantastic idea. People should not feel the need to vocally support bad ideas (that will not happen) just because Trump has temporarily staked out this or that position, or they feel that doing so will troll Trump’s critics. If you do this enough, eventually you’ll accumulate a large number of people who are not in on the joke and support stupid ideas, rather than simply supporting Trump. Trump says and does many things I don’t agree with or that don’t make sense to me, and normally I just don’t say anything because at the end of the day I support Trump and understand that him successfully implementing his agenda is our best and only hope."

Talk about shifting cultural ground: I used to have “conservative” authors fearful of being associated with “edgy” books declining to participate in my Based Book Sale. Now I’m having to screen out desperate SJWs trying to get me to promote their LGBQ fiction.

I wonder how much of those USAID funds went through NGOs to promote woke fiction? Wouldn't take much to put a thumb on the scale.

Well over a hundred books and counting already lined up.
Authors sign up now. Sale goes live Wednesday, February 12.
