Wait, what? I thought cold pressing juice would be a process where you put likez the fruits and vegetables to be juiced into a device and it pressed the juice out... But it's like... A kuerig that doesn't heat anything? What the gently caress?

You put like, a capri sun in it and it squeezes it out for you?

The Juicero has become the poster child for Silicon Valley excess. This juicer requires a wifi connection to scan DRM QR codes for juice bags that expire after six days. Each bag costs $7 or $8. There is a subscription service. The machine itself is over-engineered and the juice can be made faster by just squeezing the bag with your hands. It cost $800 last week, and I think they slashed the price to $400 this week. The CEO looks exactly as punchable as you think he'd look.

I was going to write the line "I didn't need to know how the sausage was made, even before EE convinced me to stop eating them", but figured that would be kinda gauche.

What the actual gently caress is this? :wtc: They claim it squeezes with 4 tons of force. Hahaha.

Well, I didn't say there aren't many moral problems with eating meat of any kind and even specifically McNuggets. It's just with all those other legit problems it seems dumb to focus on "they look gross and are made of weird things".

I remember when Tide came out with a laundry Keurig for about $500. I forget what they called it but it was very dumb.

"Oh, so it's a home dry cleaning machine?"
"Nope."
"Oh, so it just washes one shirt at a time? That sounds kinda wasteful."
"Yeah, not even."
"..."
"It kinda steams a shirt and febreezes it."

"Cold-pressed juice" is the same thing as "raw juice", which has been around decades at this point, and is just unpasteurized juice with some of the fiber left in it. Add that to the list of ways the Juicero is a non-innovative innovation.

my posts are as bad the Current Releases review of Gone Girl

I understand the logic that eating meat encourages and fuels the horrifying cyberpunk death machine known as industrial factory gaming, but given that just existing in the first world means you are directly responsible, on a personal basis, for immeasurable human suffering and probably at least a dozen deaths and literally cannot stop this by your own efforts, I've found it hard to give a poo poo about the ethical implications of the Mcnugget.

Hey, this has nothing to do with the ongoing conversation, but does anyone remember the name of that noir film with a cast of entirely children? I mentioned it to a friend, but the name slipped my mind. I think Hawk was in the name somewhere?
