  • Restaurants sit half-empty in Turkey this summer as inflation reaches 91% in places sending tourists and locals flocking to neighboring Greece

  • The images of menus from ~3 years ago have prices that line up with the average monthly wages. The recent photos of menus have the prices blanked out.

    The "new" price of ~850 TRY for a single serving is over 25% of the average monthly wages (2900-3200). The site providing wages doesn't specify if that's the average earnings before or after tax either. Prices on older menus are more like ~50 TRY for the same item.

  • Happy to see something done at least. Annoyed knowing they were likely accused, and investigated due to their skin colour. As per some family there, you absolutely do not go certain places without a white friend or friends. If you're going out by yourself you do it on crowded days and make sure you're seen on security cameras and make note of where and when. That way when you get accused, because you will be, you're covered.

    For context they were born and raised in Switzerland, one of their parents was as well. The other parent moved there from North America and has since become a Swiss citizen about 40 years ago. The parent that moved is a visible minority and continues to have an adventure of a time.

  • Man sues Apple for accidentally exposing his infidelity

  • Declaring it a "very brutal way" for his wife to find out, he believes that there could've been a chance of the marriage continuing had he been able to "talk to her rationally."

    I'm not sure if he means he could continue his behaviour without being caught or if he planned on lying and saying it was a one time thing. Either way I highly doubt he had any plans to be honest.

    The "talk to her rationally" bit is hilarious. Yes I've been expensively unfaithful, have possibly been exposing you to a number of diseases without your knowledge, and have been physically unavailable regularly for years. What self respecting person wouldn't "rationally" see that as perfectly acceptable! /s
