There's a story that Wong Wifu, the great Chinese martial artist... had a fight with a guy and beat him. Then the guy gave him this light tap. Wong looked at him and the guy just nodded. That was it. He had given him the death touch. Wong died.

Then and there?

No. About eighteen years later. That's the thing about Dim Mak... you never know when it's gonna take effect.

Probably one that's feeling the pressure from over 1000 workers organized into multiple unions and wants an out. At least that's my bedtime fantasy

That seals the deal for me on rooting my pixel. I've been hesitant about rooting ever since I bricked an extra galaxy s3 and nearly bricked my (main device) Verizon galaxy s5

I'm excited to see them succeed. I love it when stuff is designed with function over form, and made practically. I'm a tall person, this is the only small electric vehicle I feel I could actually fit in

You mean the table that the US government built by gutting US manufacturing in the 90s?

Tech companies hate disabled people generally, considering one of the largest tech unions in the US had a rally about disability rights earlier today

You mean the people the maintain the biggest logistics network in the world? Not sure, but it sure as fuck is relevant to news about the company that hosts 25% of the internet.

Got it. You believe that the only thing relevant to technology is the things being made, but the people that make those things aren't relevant. Let's see how much tech news will come from those companies when the workers stop working.

Labor is inseparable from it's fruits.
