Cheese isn't even good when it gets that thick. It takes on an unpleasant texture. And in a sandwich like that it would be ruinous to the bread. You would at least have to slice it thinner and layer it.

I kept my warcraft 2 manual because it's a beautiful fucking work of art.

It's still better than the 1930s, low bar that it is.

Being and Nothingness and Being and Time are the books you want on this. That's a 1000 pages by Sartre and Heidegger and the core documents of existentialism.

Have I read it all? Fuck no, this shit is hard to read. I once reread a page 8 times and still didn't get it.

Changing the main character perspective half way is actually the weirdest part

Then everyone dumps on him, and he says the roll back was fake news and it's still happening, but nobody even in the administration knows what's going on.

That won't work, because building a new factory takes 2-5 years and if the tariffs drop at any point then you're stuck with a product way more expensive that nobody will buy.

No I mean it wouldn't be possible to make them here, if you tried to build a series of factories they would not have enough workers. It's like an order of magnitude scale difference, the largest industrial plant in the US is 30k workers and in China the big one for iPhones is 350k. And that is 350k people working super long hours. Even in China labor isn't plentiful anymore, there is shortages of labor in the coastal areas. You try to hire a staffing firm and tell them you want 300k skilled workers in a city and they'll just laugh at you.

It's not about the price. There just isn't enough capacity and workers to build that many.

No. Even a large tariff on a 3$ piece of plastic that retails for 20-30 won't be worth adding anything.

You don't have to pay for it, it will work as is.

This take is in bad faith, because most people that are going to buy a switch 2 already have a switch and you can play older games on it and it's only 10$ to upgrade if there is a new edition for a game you have. And it's true that Nintendo doesn't really discount older games but you can buy them used for cheap.
