Financially, perhaps the numbers made sense. It was (and still is) a very basic social networking site with poor UX. Microsoft paid for a user base and a rudimentary surveillance system. It would have probably been better for them to just s

I googled sage barista express and was like, "that looks like a Breville." Turns out it's the same thing. Yes, they're excellent machines and last a very long time. Don't actually require that much time, but they re

“Strong wartime leader”? The guy is an actor. Also, he was elected on a platform of making peace. It was the right wing neonazis who scared him into backing off of the platform he was elected on.
