  • Most people don’t know “what” anything is in that case. Cars? Most people don’t know what a clutch master cylinder is - they just know how to use the car. Most people don’t know what an app is, since they don’t understand the code language it was built in. Sure, they know how to use it but without knowing Java, it may as well be magic. Vaccines! No one knows what they are! There’s no simple explanation so everyone who’s ever used a vaccine has no idea what they are!

    The average person does not have specialized knowledge about anything, even things ubiquitous to modern life.

    Yeah, Trump is technically right here but at the end of the day, I don’t really care if a firefighter knows exactly how every app on their phone works, just as long as they know how to put out fires and maybe rescue cats from trees.





  • But that’s your store. Vance was saying Eggs were $4 while standing in front of a sign saying “Eggs $2.99” and complaining about egg prices in the area, while blaming Harris for making eggs $4.

    He could’ve stood in front of the $2.99 sign to only show the more expensive eggs. He could’ve gone to a “higher end” store to find those $7 eggs. He could’ve just stood in a different part of the store. But his crew looked at the backdrop and said “eh, go for it.” and did.

    Harris isn’t responsible for the price of eggs anyway. There’s no “Vice Presidential Office of Egg Prices” she presides over.












  • Imagine if you had a hammer and decided to use it to hit a nail and then someone came along and said “I see you’re using my method to build a house! Pay up!”

    Well, you can’t patent something like that!

    Imagine you open up a game engine, any engine, and decide you need to point to an objective so you decide to use an arrow. A game company says “You’re using our method to identify objectives! Pay up!” and that one is a unique mechanic?

    How long has humanity been using arrows to point to things? How can you patent it just because it’s a digital arrow?
