If this doesn't spur on an antitrust suit in the EU, I don't know what will.

Because McCarthyism is well and alive.

After 7 decades of fear mongering which has trained the US constituency to not up go left of neo liberal, which - incidentally - is slightly right from center, we see that the only path is further right... into Naziism.

The neo liberals don't know what to do, because they too wanna go further right, because they're fucking neo-liberals.

I stood in line for VHS tapes. I also know that the blockchain is slow as hell and that cryptocurrency is glorified gambling for people with too much money - and I had a friend in the early 2000s that was trying to make a Bitcoin exchange.

Because that's the feature people actually want. The biggest use of these watches is having an active heart rate monitor, as evident by even most of the cheaper watches having them.

Pebble is now playing a gambit, whereby they think they will sell more of the premium model to people who will be using it for exercise and health reasons.

Either that, or the hardware chosen specifically separates the heart rate monitor so that vendors strike a better deal with the factories to get specially designed chips.

Either way, someone is getting taken for a ride.

"oh but why won't people vote for the democrats?!?!"

Because they're fucking pussies. Time to vote for the Black Panther Party. I don't care if you're white. I am too.

Now dawn that black beret and start marching with rifle in hand. We're going to go form some fucking cooperatives!
