Apple got denied an extension on document discovery stuff with Epic and the denial from the judge is one of the best things I've ever read.

Absolutely calling them out on their nonsense behaviour for once!

It's 2 pages of perfection.

Trump defended a cutting blow from Kamala about his election fraud bullshit by citing Viktor Orban’s appreciation, twice, and then attacked Biden. That was truly deranged.
