Wow! Some of the people here are really angry. Why so much hate? Yes, what the women did was not the best example of her religion, but I still respect the religion and their people. It is easy to get angry at the certain religion due to the activists. But the hate on this thread is: wow. I don't see why this makes everyone so angry. It's annoying, but no reason to attack people.

 

i don't know why? maybe because the increase of that religion in their own countries is destabilizing the social order. there are no go zones across western europe where native europeans can't go for fear of being attacked. nothing good ever happens where ever islam goes.

Max Krassman: Say goodbye to your frog, pig!
Miss Piggy: Why should I?
Max Krassman: Because in 10 seconds, he won't know *you* from kosher bacon.

 

 

Don't know why that suddenly came to me ? saw the movie almost 35 years ago.

while i agree with you, there fellow neowiner who in denials about the no go zones.

It is clear the customer did something other than order Bacon that made him shout what he did, would be interesting to see the before events.  Either way KFC took the customer is always right attitude and suspended the employee

 

From the video its seems that the customer just asked for bacon and the guy flipped out, hence why the other employee says there is no bacon. Also we don't know if KFC suspended the employee the person who quoted me earlier was clearly making up stuff because he didn't even know what retail chain it happened in.

Out of interest, how many of you are offended by dog-meat restaurants?

 

If i was in a country that routinely and traditionally eats dog meat then i'd both not be and also have no right to be offended by it.

 

The amount of western travelers to countries that serve dog meat is huge, but i've never seen any news about them throwing their toys out of the pram about it.

It started with a post from one woman who wrote that the sign was insensitive to those who do not consume pork. She said as a vegan living in a Muslim household she is personally offended by it.

 

I prefer not to read anything from jihadwatch as it is heavily biased.

 

The above quote was taken from the source. It did not say that the woman is a Muslim, but living in a Muslim household. Who knows, maybe she is renting a room there and gets food there. 

^ On the few occasions where I've spent more than a couple of weeks in another country, I've always made it a point to make sure I'm not doing anything against local laws & customs in public places.  That included, when I lived in Florida for 6 months back in the 80's, letting my neighbours drag me to their local church because, well, everyone went to church!

 

I didn't kick up a fuss, and I saw no point in telling them I was an atheist.  It cost me nothing to sing a couple of songs, and it made my friends there happy.  They just wanted to include me in their community, and that was nice. :)

 

^^^ This post should be pinned at the top of the forum for all future and past discussions on similar topics, as it is just so damn spot on

The guy was clearly unfit for a job in fast food. He could have calmly replied that they do not sell bacon.

He's pretty lucky because if he'd tried that in my home town the customer would have leapt the counter and taught him a valuable life lesson.

You need to read the whole story from a better placed source than the one OP posted. The restaurant placed those ads in the woman's neighbourhood, if you read the reports and the Facebook pages there were more from her neighbourhood that objected to the placing of the ad, some of them were patrons of the restaurant.  You do the math. 

 

 

I guess if she lives in a neighborhood she can dictate what advertising takes place there? Was the ad racist? Sexist? Graphically violent? No. They would all be valid reasons to object, her superstitious view on pork is not.

 

Just so everyone is clear, this is the offending sign:

That's it. Poor women must have been shaken to the core when she saw this ghastly affront to her world view. :rolleyes:

When I lived in China, I would see dog meat in the grocery store fairly often. There's nothing to get offended about. It's a different country/culture.

 

I lived there on and off for 8 years, and there were plenty of things that I saw that I didn't like. Not once did I throw a hissy fit and demand them to change things to accommodate me. It blows my mind that people have the audacity to do that here, and even more so that we accommodate them instead of telling them to STFU and go back to their country if they don't like the way we do things here.

there should been study to show which group that loves to throw hissy fit, just because it "offend" their superstitious belief,

and i curious other than muslims is there any groups that would rival them?

They need a group to counter ISIS. They can call it PORK. People Opposing Religious Killers.

 

Capture them and force them to eat bacon.

 

Do I send you the check?    ;)

I dont eat pork - the sign wouldnt bother me at all - just like a sign for women's hygeine products - it simply doesnt apply to me.

Can you imagine what would happen if some non-muslim went to some muslim country and started complaining ?

Reason # 33495786394578   why I hate [insert group here]

She doesn't say anything in the video, she never calls him a bitch. The muslim guy behind the counter who goes nuts is the one who calls her a bitch.

 

Its interesting that you have found many reports about how this happened and even one from Subway that says that the customer harassed their employee but they still had to suspend the employee to cover their asses considering this happened in a KFC fast food outlet rather than a Subway...

 

Not sure why you think Subway is part of the muslim fast food outlets, its actually from the US and so is KFC which is where the video actually took place. (Did you even watch the video?)

 

 

Not sure if you bothered to pay attention to video at all because the angry clearly said "who you calling a bitch," I can only assume you have a problem with some who is Muslim or you would not back up the crazy lady who felt the need to record a argument that she started half way.

 

 

It is interesting how short sighted you are when there is clearly two sides of the story but media like FOX News felt to report half ass which is typical when it comes from Conservative news.

He says "Don't record me bitch, don't ######ing record me", I think you need to clean out your ears, he never said 'who you calling a bitch'.

 

The video was never on FOX news, its a video a youtuber posted to their channel when a friend of theirs got harassed by a KFC employee when she asked for bacon on a chicken burger.

 

Obviously there is always going to be two sides to a story and I'm going to believe the side that has video footage, not the side that gets even angrier when they are being recorded.

    • TeraCopy 4.0 Build 28 by Razvan Serea TeraCopy is a compact program designed to copy and move files at the maximum possible speed, also providing you with a lot of features. Copy files faster. TeraCopy uses dynamically adjusted buffers to reduce seek times. Asynchronous copy speeds up file transfer between two physical hard drives. Pause and resume transfers. Pause copy process at any time to free up system resources and continue with a single click. Error recovery. In case of copy error, TeraCopy will try several times and in the worse case just skips the file, not terminating the entire transfer. Interactive file list. TeraCopy shows failed file transfers and lets you fix the problem and recopy only problem files. Shell integration. TeraCopy can completely replace Explorer copy and move functions, allowing you work with files as usual. TeraCopy is free for non-commercial use only. For commercial use you need to buy a license. The paid version of the program includes the following features: Copy/move to your favorite folders. Save reports as HTML and CSV files. Select files with the same extension/folder. Remove the selected files from the copy queue. Features added since version 3.17: Enhanced speed graph. New multi-threaded copy engine. Support for copying to multiple targets. Queue system for managing multiple copy operations. Support for receiving files via the LocalSend protocol. TeraCopy entry in the modern Windows Explorer context menu. Integrated toolbar in the title bar. Why receive LocalSend transfers with TeraCopy? Handle file conflicts: Skip, overwrite, or rename files when a file with the same name already exists. LocalSend always creates another copy, which can waste time and disk space, especially when resuming an interrupted transfer. Filter unwanted files: Apply ignore lists or remove files manually before accepting a transfer, so unnecessary files are not downloaded. Better performance on fast networks: In tests over a 10 Gbps connection, TeraCopy received files several times faster than the standard LocalSend app on Windows. TeraCopy 4.0 Build 28 changelog: Fixed a bug where Overwrite behaved as Overwrite All during same-drive move operations. AdvancedInstaller fixed the installer’s security vulnerability: EXE Bootstrapper resolved the %appdata% location incorrectly for the System account.

    • First exciting thing to come to Windows in a long time ! This is the kind of things they should focus on, instead of cramming as much AI as they can in everything.
    • New AMD graphics driver fixes install issues and FSR 4.1 crashes on RX 7000 GPUs by Taras Buria AMD is rolling out yet another graphics driver. Version 26.6.4 is now available for download, bringing two important fixes. One is for those still using Windows 10 and having trouble installing driver 26.6.2. In fact, this patch is coming from the recently released hotfix, so it is not new if you are already running version 26.6.3. The second fix is for RX 7000 owners. AMD recently brought FSR 4.1 support to the previous-gen graphics cards, but there was a bug with certain games crashing when using FSR 4.1. I experienced this issue with Forza Horizon 6, so today's driver should take care of that. Here is the official changelog: Intermittent install issue seen when installing AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.6.2 on Windows® 10 systems for Radeon™ RX 7000 series and above graphics products. Intermittent application crash may be observed in some games with AMD FSR Upscaling 4.1 enabled on Radeon™ RX 7000 series graphics products. Known issues include the following: Intermittent application crash or driver timeout may be observed while playing Battlefield™ 6 on AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370. AMD is actively working on a resolution with the developer to be released as soon as possible. Texture flickering or corruption may appear while playing Battlefield™ 6 with AMD Record and Stream on some AMD graphics products. AMD FSR Upscaling and AMD FSR Frame Generation may show as inactive in AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition while playing Battlefield™ 6 when enabled on Radeon™ RX 9000 series graphics products. Failure to install may be observed while installing AI Bundle components in some regions with limited access to HuggingFace and GitHub. Model flickering or rendering failure may be observed in Maxon Cinema 4D and Blender on Radeon™ RX 7000 series and above graphics products. Users experiencing this issue are recommended to install AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.3.1. Intermittent application crash may be observed on some models while running Blender on Radeon™ RX 7000 series and above graphics products. Users experiencing this issue are recommended to install AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.3.1. You can download the AMD Radeon driver 26.6.4 from the official website here. Full release notes are available on the same page.
    • Amazon may use OpenAI and Nova models after Anthropic reportedly raises costs by Karthik Mudaliar Amazon is reportedly considering to use OpenAI models and even its own Nova family of AI models after Anthropic raised the cost of using Claude inside Amazon services. According to a report from The Information, Amazon is weighing its options to reduce costs under a new arrangement with Anthropic. But back in April, Amazon said it would invest $5 billion more in Anthropic, with the possibility of adding up to another $20 billion if certain commercial milestones are met. That investment actually came on top of another $8 billion Amazon had already put into the Claude maker. Anthropic, meanwhile, committed to spend more than $100 billion over 10 years on AWS technologies, including Amazon’s Trainium chips. Amazon isn't just a customer of Anthropic but also one of the most important backers and cloud partners. This is why it makes it interesting that Amazon is considering other alternatives to handle its internal workloads. Although Amazon has been building its own options for a while now. Its Nova family of AI models was announced in late 2024 for Amazon Bedrock, with models aimed at text, image, and video tasks. Amazon pitched the model around cost and latency at that time. With that said, OpenAI has also become a more realistic option recently for AWS customers as well as for Amazon itself. Earlier this year, OpenAI brought its latest models and Codex coding agent to Amazon Bedrock, after changes to its previously more restrictive Microsoft cloud arrangement. This allowed AWS to serve even those customers who wanted other alternatives from Claude, without having to move workloads out of Amazon's cloud. Evaluating alternatives could also be due to commercial pressure and not necessarily a sign of a damaged partnership between Amazon and Anthropic. Whether or not Amazon is actually considering switching entirely to OpenAI's models or its own Nova models remains unknown at this moment.
    • Samsung introduces new AI classroom tools and interactive displays at ISTELive 2026 by Fiza Ali Samsung has announced several new education-focused software features and interactive displays for schools during ISTELive 2026, taking place in Orlando, Florida, from 28 June to 1 July. The focus of these updates is on making shared classroom displays easier to use for teachers while giving IT administrators more control over managing devices. One of the key additions is the Samsung Account Management Solution (AMS). In many schools, multiple teachers share the same interactive display throughout the day, which means signing in and setting everything up can become repetitive. With AMS, teachers can log in by scanning a QR code or tapping an NFC-enabled ID card. Once signed in, their personalised workspace, including wallpapers, bookmarks, app shortcuts, and files, can be instantly accessed through Home Personalisation. Samsung has also included a screen lock feature, allowing teachers to lock the display if they need to step away briefly. Furthermore, the company is also updating its Education Portal with new tools designed for school IT administrators. The portal will allow IT administrators to register teachers, enrol devices, and manage user access from a central dashboard. Administrators can also link NFC cards to teacher accounts, making sign-ins quicker across shared displays. Another addition is a Tags feature that lets schools organise displays by building or classroom. Those tags can also be used to send emergency notifications to selected Samsung Interactive Displays through compatible platforms such as InformaCast and Raptor. Moreover, the tech giant's AI Assistant is gaining several new features aimed at supporting everyday classroom tasks such as lesson planning and classroom engagement. One of the features is Circle to Search, which lets teachers circle text or images on the display to quickly find related information, videos, or web results without interrupting the lesson. The content can then be brought into Samsung Whiteboard. Another feature, Live Transcript, converts spoken lessons into real-time captions, which could be useful for students with hearing impairments or those in multilingual classrooms. The AI Assistant also introduces AI Summary and AI Quiz. The summary tool creates summaries of recorded lessons, while AI Quiz generates questions based on lesson content so teachers can quickly check how well students are following along. Teachers signed in through Samsung AMS can also return to their previous AI-generated lesson materials without logging in again. Alongside the software updates, Samsung has expanded its Android-based Interactive Display range with three new models: the WAF-S, WAFX-PS, and WAHX-M. The WAF-S and WAFX-PS ship with Android 16, bringing updates to security, accessibility, and overall usability while maintaining compatibility with Google's education services including Google Classroom and Google Drive through EDLA certification. Meanwhile, the new WAHX-M is the biggest addition to the lineup, introducing a 98-inch display for larger spaces such as lecture halls and conference rooms. It will also be available in 65-inch, 75-inch and 86-inch sizes. Samsung says the WAHX-M further includes on-device AI features such as voice commands, text-to-speech, and an AI calculator, alongside support for Samsung AMS and AI Assistant. Samsung AI Assistant has been available since April, while Samsung AMS and the updated Education Portal will begin rolling out in July.
