It's the Urwerk 1001, if anyone's curious. It keeps time up to tracking centuries and millenias. I guess it's an unique proposition and it has some high novelty factor... Though I'm not a fan of the form factor or the design.

It just disappears once on the wrist !

And it costs almost 400k$ too.

It'll make more sense once the 0.01% will be the only one able to afford the immortality serum.

It looks pretty cool. Has that creepy fucker Doug Stamper too, will probably give it a watch.

I still haven't finished the first season. It's pretty much Michael Bay and co trying to create a Jack Bauer for 2019.

That doesn't belong here. It's not late stage capitalism, it's late stage democracy where nothing is done to combat stupidity.

The security industry responded, promoting and selling programs that schools and local law enforcement officers adapt with fake blood, menacing masked “shooters” and simulated gunfire. Last year at Short Pump Middle School in Glen Allen, Va., school officials staged an unannounced active-shooter drill featuring multiple fire alarms, loud noises and unseen people jiggling the handles of classroom doors.

Thinking it was a real attack, students wept and texted goodbyes. Afterward, parents were furious.

law enforcement morons turning school shootings into a grift is the most amerikan shit

Damn. Short pump middle school is in a pretty bougie suburb of Richmond where the schools are very well-funded.

According to The Washington Post, the toilet could have been housed in the White House after the Guggenheim Museum offered it to President Donald Trump and Melania Trump. The couple requested a painting by Vincent Van Gogh, but were told that the painting they wanted, "Landscape With Snow" was "prohibited from travel except for the rarest occasions."

https://www.thestar.com//amp/news/gta/2019/09/19/landlord-who-bought-1-per-cent-stake-in-a-house-withdraws-eviction-notice-then-promptly-issues-a-new-one.html
Quote
Devon McKenzie had less than a minute to enjoy life free from the threat of eviction.

She had gone to the Landlord and Tenant Board on Wednesday to fight a personal-use eviction issued by her new landlord, a first-time homebuyer who had taken on the title after purchasing just one per cent of the house where she rents.

The landlord withdrew the application, only to moments later issue a new one — effectively beginning the months-long ordeal over again.

McKenzie was three steps from the hearing room door when the property manager, on behalf of the landlord, handed her the new N12 eviction forms.

“Are you f---ing kidding me,” responded McKenzie. She later told the Star she has no choice but to fight to stay in her home. “It still comes down to I can’t afford to live anywhere else.”

It’s a case she and her lawyer say showcases a potential abuse of legal process — first in using the sliver of ownership to issue a personal-use eviction in a city where a lack of affordable rental units and no limit on what can be charged for empty apartments serve as incentives for landlords to push tenants out; and now, using the option to withdraw the application to avoid a full hearing and a decision that might not be in the landlord’s favour.

A transfer document from the Land Registry Office dated June 18 shows that a couple who own the home transferred a one per cent interest to 20-year-old Jacky Bai Jun Liu, worth $9,000.

Soon after the sale, Liu sent notices informing seven tenants in two units that he would be pursuing his right as a landlord to evict them so he could move in.
Totally legitimate transfer.

Quote
George Chiang and Harriet Ho-Yin Chung who purchased the property for $230,000 in 2001, property records show. The couple are joint owners of 17 homes across the former city of Toronto, property records show.
Of course they do.
