Rupert Murdoch can still pull the strings of Australian politicians.

Kroger plans rollout of iPhone-assisted COVID-19 rapid testing kits
Brilliant... and you only have to add one more statement. Look at Australia and New Zealand for how not to mess up. Massive contact tracing and testing crushed every outbreak.mike1 said:JPPennypacker said:Why roll out testing. Why not roll out vaccinations. Geesh. How thick headed can you be? I’ve never understood why anyone would want to get tested. It’s not like you can got get a Covid relief pill. It’s called treating symptoms and now getting the dang vaccines out to as many people that want to take them as possible. Let everyone and anyone give and take it. Where is common sense when it’s needed the most.Really?! A year into this and you don't understand the benefit of easy-to-access, widespread testing?AI hasn't added this emoji as an option, so...

UK politicians urge government to try for Apple Car production jobs
Every brexiteer I know is like a cast member from the “Crown” longing for the empire to return. You used to have huge opportunities to work and live in Europe, they are now gone , or at least heavily restricted. It’s pretty much a gigantic mess brought on by the older generation. The British car industry is in terminal decline, especially with the EV mandate coming up. No car maker will invest in retooling for EV’s in a small market.ionicle said:Talking of deluded....
The UK is a fantastic place to do business, freed from the shakles and opression of the EU, we are free to do as we please, and with a trade deal with the EU the apple car could be built here and sold allover Europe.
For the record im a 26 year old uni masters degree holder who voted leave, its not just ‘deluded’ or older people.
im so glad we regained our freedom from the EU. We are now free from restrictions, free from opression, free from daft regulations, and free to do as we please without asking our ‘masters’ in Brussels to permit it.
but back to the point, built here would make it one of the best manufacturered cars in the world.

Hyundai and Kia confirm 'Apple Car' talks have ended
The problem is that Tesla makes very few cars and only makes a profit from selling carbon credits. They also have some very serious competitors now. VW just sold 121,000 EV’s and many PHEV’s. The ID3 is now the second best selling car in Germany behind the Golf. And Ford, GM, BMW, Mercedes, PSA and the Koreans are about to release various EV models. Sell that overvalued Tesla stock now.gmgravytrain said:So much for going to the Apple website and clicking on the AppleCar product section. I'm sure Elon Musk is laughing harder now than when he became the richest man on the planet. It's already game over for Apple when it comes to EV sales. I can understand why Wall Street is going to put most of its money into Tesla rather than Apple. Big investors are far more excited over EVs than smartphones because share gains will be much higher for Tesla than Apple. EVs have replaced cloud storage as the low-hanging fruit for making unlimited revenue. Apple has now missed out on both. For every Tesla Model S Plaid Plus sold, Apple will have to sell 100 iPhone 13 Pro Max units. Apple shareholders are not going to be happy with that thought. Tesla has now secured the necessary investor mindshare to permanently have a P/E of 1400. Apple will struggle to hold a P/E of 40. Musk wins again as the CEO with the Midas Touch.

Judge rules Tim Cook must sit through seven-hour 'Fortnite' deposition
I have been deposed and have endured a 10 hour deposition. It’s a nightmare for even the best prepared. You are questioned relentlessly by the opposing counsel. I can understand how people crack under the pressure of interrogation.
