Pellisworth posted:IIRC Gorka got tossed because he couldn't get a security clearance so he was just sitting in the White House cafeteria on his laptop doing nothing. So as hilarious as it would be, doubt he'll be asked to be CoS. Trump loves him some crime, I fully expect ~The Dragon of Budapest~ to be CoS effective January 1st with Trump ranting on Twitter about security clearances being unfair to conservatives.

Skippy McPants posted:I think part of it is that the Russia stuff is the first big scandal his mind latched onto, so he's laser-focused on it because it's the one thing that stuck in his addled brain. The other part might be that he understands on some basic level that literal treason is a bit worse than the work-a-day financial corruption that most of the wealthy in this country engage in. He's been to court multiple times over poo poo like that. When he had a clear win he fought to the end. When he knew he was hosed, he settled. The difference here is that he used campaign money instead of pocket money or his "charity" money that he could easily sweep under the rug. Also this time there is no option to settle

"no end in sight" is a good documentary about the invasion and aftermath (and even has future mass rep seth moulton as a talking head). the invasion was always incredibly stupid and illegal but man did they totally screw the peace. no reason for iraq to end up like it did even with the invasion.

skylined! posted:The point I saw was to encourage eliminating salt as an additive flavoring as well as high-sodium processed foods, and force self-op school systems and contractors to use more whole foods that include sodium only as a naturally occurring ingredient. There are other ways to force whole food adoption, specifically by requiring whole foods be served. The targeted amounts of sodium are just so low that they are essentially incompatible with palatable cooked food. Two eggs scrambled with a single pinch of salt and nothing else is right at the limit set by the breakfast requirements for high schoolers.

FlamingLiberal posted:Apple just had to discount new iPhones because they are not selling, so I’m sure they are thrilled with losing a market this morning Not just A market, but far and away their largest market. China simultaneously represented A: the country where the most iPhones are sold yearly, B: The country with the highest iPhone purchasing growth rate, and C: the country with the largest remaining untapped "potential iPhone buyers". Though local competition has reduced Apple's relative market share within China, the smartphone market there in general is still growing rapidly, and Apple has benefited greatly from it. Though I don't find it particularly likely, if the injunction holds, it is pretty devastating to Apple's revenue growth. LegendaryFrog fucked around with this message at 16:23 on Dec 10, 2018 |

Is it intended to compensate for overconsumption of sodium outside of school? i.e. kids are getting too much sodium from fast food, frozen meals, etc. Or is sodium just an overblown food panic similar to fat?

Same with lipids, they aren't that bad for you compared to all the sugar we eat. I have seen some people try for no sodium diets ignoring the fact that your body will shut down

I do not think it's a coincidence that a Chinese court is suddenly holding a gun to the head of Apple in the middle of a trade war, especially when the US just grabbed a Hauwei executive and started openly talking about using her as a bargaining chip. So I don't think a different Chinese court is going to overturn that decision on appeal while the rest of the trade war is going on.
