Leaving aside the danger to employees and potential damage to equipment, we need to acknowledge that the smell generated by heating up a Subway tuna sandwich is in violation of the Geneva Protocol of 1925, the Chemical Weapons Convention, and arguably the Fourth Geneva Convention.

So would you say this has caused the franchise owners to go into full...meltdown?

Yeah as you noted in a later comment, Moyo is also Jewish, so really the missed opportunity here is Jewish institutions uplifting the voices of and empowering Jews of Color who too often face racism from the mostly white, mostly Ashkenazi Jewish community (and also can face antisemitism from their other ethnic communit…

It seems like the Goulds are conveniently forgetting that while the number of Jewish victims of the Holocaust was by far the largest, other minority races were also rounded up and murdered indiscriminately by the Nazis as well.

Not to mention, if the Holocaust isn’t political, how the hell is “black people should be allowed to live” a political statement????

Would love to see Sacha Baron Cohen’s take on this.

I’m waiting for someone in the comments to make the mistake of assuming that Carrie's black employee was Carrie's black friend. I sadly know it's coming.

Just read more about this (while looking to see where the Goulds’ worshipped; yes, I’m Jewish and being nosy) and Moyo is Jewish! WTF, people? This just kills me that they would prevent her from making the connection to Black lives! ARGH.

This is ridiculous. One of the missions of the National Holocaust Museum in D.C. is speaking out about genocide around the world, which would include the treatment of Black people in this country. I’ve been there when they had huge exhibits of the plight of the Sudanese (prior to the creation of So. Sudan). The…

Look, the Holocaust happenned because of, hum, uh, things, reasons and stuff, NO POLITICS!. So yeah, hope you learned a lot today about a lot of non-political, uh, history.

yeah WHAT in the fuck does this even mean??? the extent of the "education" can only be "genocide is bad don't do it" and any further details get cut for politics????????

“We donate to anything that helps educate people about the horrors of the Holocaust, as long as it is apolitical.”

Valve and Nintendo’s primary revenue source is the sale of videogames. If that revenue source is reduced, their overall profitability takes a much bigger hit than MS, Sony, Epic, Google or Apple would take. MS makes the majority of their money from PC software licensing (Windows, Office, Visual Studio, etc). The…

I don’t think this has anything to do with that since Microsoft already pays publishers/devs for the amount of downloads a game gets on Gamepass, so they are not exactly losing money on that front.

Do you have no self-control whatsoever that you need options to not exist for you to not use them?

lol

It sounds like your position is you don’t care if it’s disadvantageous to the software creators, just that you benefit in the end. Except you aren’t benefiting in the end either, you are paying more for a limited library of applications. You sound like an apple pr person, or an apple fanboy.

It’s certainly a good move to attract more indie attention, but I’m not sure this actually effects the cut big studios get. Special preferential contracts for them seem pretty likely, especially if MS is considering such a drastic cut from the old 30% default.

Talk all the shit you want about Epic games (some of it well deserved) but you have to admit having another competitor in the space is really great for devs and consumers.

Moisture in the air will cause the solid acids and base in the powder to react prematurely. That said, I've used 5-year-old baking powder without noticing any hit to its leavening ability. I live in a very dry area and it was stored in the back of a pantry, undisturbed, for years at a time.
