Hey Janelle, what's wrong with Wolfie? I can hear him barking. Is he all right?

Look I don't doubt you've met these people but it's not everywhere. Here in Australia the kids still learn this at school.

My daughter is in primary school and they've learned to use a word processor, spreadsheet, presentation software etc.

So they can all use a keyboard and mouse and she's done some school projects as PowerPoint slideshows.

5 digit here too: 56k something. I think there are many. It feels a bit like those days and I've noticed a lot of GenX people here.

Germany to Melbourne is much longer. SYD to LAX is only 14 or 15 hours usually.

I went 5 times for work last year. So I think many of the entries are the same people. There are multiple flights each day which almost always seemed full.

And you know what? I don't feel like I'm missing anything. Lots of posts and comments to keep me busy for hours.

I don't know the latest value but in 2023 Apple had like $162 billion in cash reserves on hand. Burning a billion a year is nothing especially as you say they're just 'art banking' it for the future.

It's only not allowed because the USA enforces that policy. Trump can decide tomorrow that USA sparkling wine can be called Champagne when sold in the USA and there's nothing France can do about it.

The orange clown has shown us the rules are only any good if there's someone who can enforce them. Most of them are just gentlemen's agreements.
