Most so-called democracies now have the best politicians money can buy. It is unreasonable to expect politicians to understand any technology more advanced than knives (as in sticking in backs) and forks (as in fork over the cash).
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

The race to the bottom just seems to accelerate in politics!
Surely it's time to make would-be politicians take some sort of aptitude test, before they are allowed to stand. Since the electorate seem more than happy to vote for grifters & crazies, as long as they're standing for their political party.

Just the fact that the governor is commenting on this case tells me it was political from the outset.
The governor does not like the press embarrassing their state. That's why he's going after them.
If this was a standard crime, you wouldn't have even heard about it. The marching orders came from the governors office, not the prosecutor's office. They want revenge. Count on it.

Maybe the Governor simply said "prosecute" and some dumb assistant assumed he meant the journalist, not the developer! (Unlikely, but in reality some serious questions need to be asked of the design / development / testing team...)

That may be humour but when in Johannesburg we ordered a tasting plate of bushmeat. bloody awful, I don't know how they managed to cook it to a toughness that would rival a car tyre.

On honeymoon in Iceland, my wife was very hungry one evening. As we perused the menu (in Icelandic) she said "I'm so hungry - I could eat a horse". We'd picked up enough Icelandic words in the week to get the gist of most items, and one seemed tempting. We called the waiter over and asked for a translation of one word... "Horse" came the answer.
We ate salmon that evening.

I think this is going to stay. "And if you are not happy with how it is, go open another can of tuna".

I thought this was going to end up in a reference to the movie “The Freshman”

In another thread I made a comment regarding making popcorn to watch the Win11 rollout, and it occurred to me that the reference may not translate outside of the USA.
In the USA, it's common to eat popcorn while watching movies in the theatre, and often at home as well. The reference "make popcorn" is used when observing humorous and/or otherwise entertaining situations that the folks directly involved may not find so humorous, although often it's a situation of their own making.
Is this reference common outside the USA?

In Italy, it is.
