Colgate Frozen Beef Lasagna (early 1980s)
The Museum of Failure can't confirm whether or not this *actually* existed (Colgate says "no"). If true, one of the more ludicrous product crossovers ever LOL. pic.twitter.com/rB1C7CPboI

Nike Magneto (1995-97)
Nike created a pair of futuristic sunglasses that didn't have temples (the part that goes over your ear).
One big catch: to wear them you had to glue frickin magnets on your face so the shades could clip on. pic.twitter.com/MmqZxpcwV9

There's a "Museum of Failure" in Sweden which highlights 150+ failed products. It's meant to show that innovation requires risk-taking and failure.
Here are 10 gems you may not remember:

ESPN phone (2006)
This ESPN-branded flip phone provided grainy video highlights and 24/7 sports news. It cost $399 or "free" with a $65-$225/month plan.
It lasted <1yr, with Steve Jobs telling ESPN execs "“Your phone is the dumbest f***ing idea I have ever heard.” pic.twitter.com/fu7qbVJjsN

Ikea a.i.r. (1980s)
Ikea took "DIY" and "transportable" to new heights with its line of inflatable furniture (a.i.r.).
Valves constantly leaked and needed re-pumping. The line did last almost a decade, though. pic.twitter.com/7gVAgia6l4

TwitterPeek (2009-2010)
A $200 handheld device that *only* ran Twitter. It was a disaster:
◻️You could only see 20 characters at a time
◻️Linked websites were inaccessible
◻️It only refreshed the 10 most recent Tweets pic.twitter.com/cMjBnJnM4Q— Trung Phan (@TrungTPhan) July 21, 2022
L'article final, qui correspond exactement à ce que voulait le gouvernement : de la TVA pour financer, pas de garantie de stabilité du financement et donc pas de garantie pour l'indépendance de l'audiovisuel public… adopté par LREM, LR, le RN :https://t.co/kLvCaOAc8E pic.twitter.com/xxO1We8GZ5

Le RN peut gueuler, faire le show, tout ça, voire même mentir ouvertement… la vérité c'est que depuis le début de cette législature, ils permettent au gouvernement et à LREM d'avoir des majorités sur ses projets de droite.

« Supprimer » un impôt, mais en fait en le substituant par un autre, Macron avait déjà fait exactement la même chose en remplaçant la taxe d'habitation par de la TVA pour financer les collectivités territoriales.

Ah et aussi, sachez le : si LREM se contente d'en menacer l'indépendance financière, le RN veut purement et simplement que France Télés, Radio France, etcaetera, soient privatisés…
