Landslide refers to the margin of the victory, not whether the popular vote is won or not. This was a close election, relatively speaking, and the red team didn't achieve a landslide victory.

For one of the recent Bad Boys movies (one he didn't direct) they had Michael Bay make a cameo appearance where they shot him with one of his signature telephoto orbit techniques (orbit the subject with a long lens for a very dramatic

I don't get why the US doesn't have basic consumer protections, like products and services must be advertised at their total cost to consumer. Why not have supermarket prices marked with sales tax included? Why allow companies to

If there's one thing you want if you're highly dependent on a single vendor or supplier, it's a competitor to keep them in check. Expect the big players to buy a bunch of these, even if they do own shares in ASML.

Even if EVs are 100% powered by coal-generated electricity, the efficiency gains are massive, both at the generation end and the consumption end. EVs have up to double the efficiency in terms of power delivered to the wheels, and coal gener

karma is a term _used_ by reddit, but it definitely isn't exclusively used there. Outside of its hindu origin, it's used by quite a few forums that track user submission/comment votes as a user score, including hackernews.

This also happened to myself and one or two colleagues when I was a barman. We'd start our shift cutting up limes and lemons for cocktails, and we developed weirdly sensitive skin and dermatitis on our wrists and between our fingers. E

It may be a good idea to disclose it anyway, depending on the regulatory environment. In many countries, having a disability makes you more difficult to fire. This is especially true if they are trying to fire you for reasons that are even

Make sure your filter is clean and that you're adding soap to your prewash. If you're still getting dirty dishes after that, you may need to check your water hardness and adjust your salt dispenser. Dishwashers should only struggl

The card issuer will always have the final say when it comes to chargebacks. Each issuer has a different policy, and Stripe cannot (or should not) gamble on whether the issuer shares their view on a dispute, lest they be left holding the ba

Uranium mining in Southern Africa has always primarily been about exports, not building an arms program. It did conveniently provide the raw materials, but that's not why the industry existed, or still exists after disarmament. Otherwi

When I first came to this site, I had just quit Reddit. I got into a nationalistic flamebaiting comment thread with a nationalist flamebait comment, and dang told me off for it. It made me realise that I'd brought things I didn't

sure, when I pay illegal immigrants less than minimum wage for dangerous work I've broken the law, but when Apple does unfair labour practices they've "broken the law" with "quote marks" around it.

Sure, they had a choice in which engine to use, but that's not the point. Your logic regarding sales figures and percentages is also missing context and is probably a bit too generous when it comes to how much money has been made. The

Cash indeed has a high handling cost. In my country and many others, withdrawing cash at the supermarket teller with your card is free (as in no ATM fees) because it reduces the amount of cash handled and transported by branches. They'

"soups" is the verb here, "van Goghs" is the object. Weirdly enough too, "souping" is a noun here. This whole sentence is a flustercuck for non-native speakers.

That would result in actual property and financial damages. What they've done here is 20 minutes with a rag and detergent to clean up. As others have pointed out, the actual paintings are not affected.
