Mike Cornell here with Quick News of the Weird. If I was King of the Universe for a day, I would solve three problems. First, I would end this hot dogs come in packages of 10 but hot Dog buns come in packages of 8 thing. 10 for both or 8 for both! Second: You know how you always lose one sock when you do laundry? I would wave my magic wand and all the missing socks would appear! Finally, number three... I would make sure that the ice cream machines at every McDonalds are never broken! The Feds might actually be doing something about number three. Federal regulators want to fix McDonald's broken ice cream machines and they're asking to expand right-to-repair laws to address the issue. Regulators have asked for commercial soft-serve machines to be exempt from
current laws making them difficult to repair. The reason McDonalds ice cream machines are always down is because of copyright law. Only technicians licensed by the company that made the machines
are allowed to fix them and they charge over 300 dollars to service the machine for 15 minutes. Every time the machine breaks down, a restaurant loses on average about 625 dollars a day. The machine sends out this nonsensical error message when it breaks down, but this other company figured out a way to decode the messages and can get its techs busy repairing the machines as soon as the Feds adopt this right to repair rule. If our ice cream loving President is smart he will make this rule happen...It's a no brainer...that will mean more ice cream headaches..and---maybe, possibly--will
boost his poll numbers.
