What’s your vote for the most ridiculous, overpriced, and useless tweak?

The new Apple Corp. giant UFO HQ building is isolated on huge slip plates/bearings. This might not sound like a big deal but the Apple Corp. HQ building is one mile in circumference. The question is did Tim Cook decide to isolate the HQ building for earthquake protection OR so employees could enjoy the benefits of isolation whilst they listen to their desktop systems or headphones or whatever?

"I’ve also reversed engineered a Mpingo Disc. Bet that makes you jealous, too."

I am not of a jealous kind.

This is the first time that I am aware of someone claiming to reverse-engineer wood. Isn’t that called "planting a tree"?

Apparently no one ever explained to you why Mpingo Discs are difficult to replicate and, uh, what’s inside one. But I’ve said too much already. 🤫

I will check in my botany book although I know the basics of what could be in the tree.

Keep on planting. Mpingo seems to be in danger.

Let’s see, have we forgotten anybody? Oh, geez, we forgot the Intelligent Chip! It knows when a CD has already been treated. Not to mention it works by remote control. Hel-loo!  You place the Intelligent Chip on top of the CD player and let the music play for 2 seconds. Voila! The CD is permanently treated. The original Intelligent Chip was carried by Golden Sound but came from China.
