Photo by Gerald Matzka/picture alliance via Getty Images McDonald’s always-broken ice cream machines might finally get easier to fix. That’s because the US Copyright Office granted an exemption allowing third parties to diagnose and repair commercial equipment — including the ones that make your McFlurries. Now, franchise owners will be able to break through the digital locks that have blocked them from repairing McDonald’s ice cream machines for years. According to the Copyright Office, the exemption will allow people to diagnose, perform maintenance, and repair “retail-level commercial food preparation equipment.” McDonald’s ice cream machines have become so notorious for breaking that someone even created a tool to track broken machines. The decision is part of the Copyright Office’s final... Continue reading…

PENNSYLVANIA—In an unexpected turn of events at a recent campaign rally, Barack Obama found himself in hot water after attendees spotted visible puppet strings dangling from Kamala Harris, making her look more like a marionette than a vice-presidential candidate. The event, designed to showcase Harris’s leadership skills with a surprise endorsement from the former president, quickly turned into a spectacle when Obama raised his hand to gesture enthusiastically, only for Harris to awkwardly mimic the motion, her limbs moving as if pulled by invisible strings. “Is that puppet strings I see?” exclaimed one onlooker, barely able to contain their laughter as they recorded the bizarre display. Harris’s speech quickly devolved into a series of jerky movements, her head bobbing and swaying in an uncanny imitation of a malfunctioning puppet. “It’s just Kamala being Kamala!” said a campaign spokesperson, trying to downplay the incident. “She’s always been flexible—physically and ideologically. This is just an artistic interpretation of leadership!” The fiasco escalated when a shadowy figure behind the curtain, later identified as a campaign aide, accidentally tugged the strings too hard, causing Harris to execute an unplanned pirouette mid-sentence. “This is what it means to be in touch with the people!” she exclaimed, her voice a blend of bewilderment and enthusiasm. Obama, meanwhile, attempted to regain control of the situation, chuckling as he said, “Hey, the strings represent unity! We’re all connected, folks! Just like Kamala and I are connected through… well, these strings!” As the crowd erupted into applause—some laughing, some confused—Harris grinned widely, her expression a mixture of determination and the unmistakable look of a puppet who just realized she might be on a string. From his vacation home in Delaware, President Biden could be heard muttering, “I told them to stick to teleprompters, not puppetry.” The rally ended with Obama playfully winking at the crowd, saying, “No strings attached, folks! Just good old-fashioned political magic!” The post OOOPS! Puppet strings visible in latest campaign stop by Obama and Kamala Harris appeared first on Genesius Times.

Jodie Sweetin is using her voice through a daring new ad on Instagram, where she makes her views on politics known to her followers. The 42-year-old joined the likes of Jerry O’Connell and Jeff Ross to bring this campaign to life as they urge their followers to vote right this election season. Many fans thought it was admirable that Jodie would use her platform to address real issues about American lives. Some others found the video offensive and cringed, as the political message was against their conservative views. What was Jodie Sweetin’s bold political ad about?             View this post on Instagram                         A post shared by Jeff Ross (@therealjeffreyross)   Jodie’s message centered around women’s reproductive rights, which have been a big debate lately. The satire-style clip showed Jodie and Jerry congratulating their daughter for getting into college when suddenly Stork Ross shows up with a baby, ruining her career plans. A disappointed Jodie then blames her husband, who immediately admits to not voting, hence the ripple effect in their lives. The next scene was between Charlotte McKinney and Samm Levine, who both get a storky delivery whilst breaking up, with the big bird saying they should have voted pro-choice when they had the chance. Jodie Sweetin / Everett Reactions to Jodie Sweetin’s political satire Jodie’s message, which Ross called a “public cervix announcement” with every pun intended, was quite clear as she encouraged her followers to vote pro-choice. Ross quipped that men should ordinarily not have a say in women’s reproductive matters. “What do you people think ?” he asked, urging viewers to engage and share the video for other voters to see. Jodie Sweetin / Everett Those who already voted proudly announced they favored candidate Kamala Harris, who has promised abortion rights for women. Some found it ridiculous that people chose her based on this singular perk and not her track record as Vice President of the outgoing government. “Imagine voting on someone because you can’t kill babies. Yikes how morbid,” another argued.
