15 years ago, I got a cable box, when they were large, to have cable TV. But after I got the box home, looking carefully at the back where the lines plugged in, there was tell tell sings that bugs had been in the box. I looked at the inside of the box, through the grate, and there were signs of a roach infestation. Whoever had had that box before, I guess, lived in a shithole. I returned the box and said I would now only accept a new box, and they gave me a new box. ( I cut cable TV in 2016).

So this story is related, in a way...

Gee, wonder why they "fast tracked" this.

On another note, not sure why the Soros family is allowed to walk the earth. One of most corrupt families on the planet. Why the US would let him purchase anything like this here is a joke.

A walkout affecting 14 large ports on the East and Gulf Coast could start at midnight on Tuesday October 1, posing a potentially significant headwind to the US economy.

Negotiations on a new contract began in May but have stalled in recent weeks.

The United States Maritime Alliance (USMX), which represents shipping companies and terminal operators, on Thursday asked federal officials to intervene, citing the union's "repeated refusal to come to the table."

Let them strike. They will not get their way. They are like the blacksmith's striking because the automobile came along.

In their case, they do not want automation to take their jobs.

Well that's too bad. All of the highway toll workers who took money in toll booths lost their jobs when the tech to read car plates and toll tags came on the scene in Dallas.
