Those machines were invented by Dean Kamden of the Segway fame. Coca Cola then gave him the money to develop a water purification system for 3rd world countries. There’s a good documentary, SlingShot, from 2014 on it:

They are safe, but of course, like anything in a restaurant, they require the employees to do things correctly.

A clarification worth noting: while the dispensing technology in the Freestyle machines was indeed designed by Dean Kamen, the machines themselves were designed by the famous car design firm Pininfarina.

I think this might be a worse toilet than the one posted a while back with the pictures of all the people looking up from the floor. Quite an accomplishment.

I should double-check sometime…but the first mention I know of Philistines in the bible is the story of Samson, where he marries one of them, tries to cheat his new in-laws with an unfair riddle, and then just starts murdering people. He’s a good guy because God wants to get rid of them. Even if it were still relevant I think the whole thing is pretty awful – “see, our ancestors were reprehensible too!”

Netanyahu has (AFAIK) not refererred to Palestinians by referring to the Philistines.

He’s been referring to them as (or by analogy to) Amalekites.

Go on. Look them up.
