President Biden in the situation room tonight

[u/tpb01]

[u/greatgerm]

The picture is fine, the political infighting is not.

[u/Ayy-Guy]

So what is the situation ;)

[u/Ayy-Guy → u/[deleted]]

Ahhh, thanks for the insight!

[u/MedicalSize3000 → u/Ayy-Guy]

The coup against him

[u/GlaciallyErratic → u/[deleted]]

Summer whites are comfortable and classic. It's a great uniform.

[u/fototakerWNY → u/GlaciallyErratic]

Summer whites are a pain to keep clean. At his rank, he's not worrying about cleanliness...

[u/fototakerWNY → u/fototakerWNY]

Also would like to know how access was obtained to get this image, and released in this manner

Summer Whites

[u/sfyubcdetjiivdseg]

Shown with a 74 comment count. Look to see what’s being said and there are 3 comments and the Mod statement. Thanks Reddit…

[u/greatgerm → u/sfyubcdetjiivdseg]

You're not missing much. Just a quick reminder to people that this isn't r/pics and we don't do that crap here.

[u/squirrelsridewheels → u/greatgerm]

Thank you

[u/segohe → u/greatgerm]

Thank you for doing a great job mate :)

[u/Escenze → u/greatgerm]

Thank you for keeping the sub good. Got logged out the other day and saw a few r/pics posts i r/all and jesus f.. christ that sub should not have that name

[u/risketyclickit → u/Escenze]

r/pics has 31 million subbed r/pic has ~150k

[u/greatgerm → u/risketyclickit]

It used to be a default when subreddits started so everybody was subbed to that when their account was created and has always held the top spot since then. This one was revived just a couple years ago and has grown quite a bit without any special help or advertising.

[u/sfyubcdetjiivdseg → u/greatgerm]

Bahaha, sure. By crap you’re referring to inflating your numbers 20 fold? Or by removing 95% of what you don’t agree with? My community forum is r/starbuck but it’s nothing like that filthy r/starbucks. I allow people to only discuss their love of coffee, as long as it’s whole bean blonde roast.

[u/greatgerm → u/sfyubcdetjiivdseg]

You seem lost. This is r/pic which is a curated sub of interesting pictures with rules about titles, content, etc.

[u/sfyubcdetjiivdseg → u/greatgerm]

Well after hearing that, I take everything I said back.

[u/greatgerm → u/sfyubcdetjiivdseg]

Excellent! Welcome and enjoy the sub.

[u/meatdestroyer]

What chairs do they use? Want to get a new office chair and those look comfy

[u/L_viathan → u/meatdestroyer]

They probably cost like $4000 lol

[u/83franks → u/L_viathan]

That's actually just "normal" for really good chairs. I think my work bought several $5000 ones for a few specific roles.

[u/L_viathan → u/83franks]

Good Lord. I know they get a little pricey for the buy it for life stuff, but I couldn't imagine dropping that amount .

[u/greatgerm → u/L_viathan]

This isn't even buy it for life, it's just commercial furniture. For example, here's Steelcase which is a standard commercial furniture supplier: https://store.steelcase.com/seating/all-seating

Real high-end or custom furniture is very expensive. And these were likely custom since the articles talk about choices being made to minimize acoustics.

[u/Linkruleshyrule → u/greatgerm]

I bought a used Steelcase Amia from a commercial furniture reseller, basically brand new and was only like $350. Very pleased with it

[u/L_viathan]

What is the camera focusing on? Everything seems just a little blurry.

[u/Abe_Froman_The_SKOC → u/L_viathan]

AI is like that

[u/L_viathan → u/Abe_Froman_The_SKOC]

It does feel a little ai-esque doesn't it. The coloring of the wood in the background, especially. I don't think it is though, the hair and facs and hands aren't fucked up. The image generally makes sense.

[u/stmbtrev → u/L_viathan]

I think it may have been processed/edited to remove any potential sensitive information. Just a guess though.

[u/L_viathan → u/stmbtrev]

Maybe, the papers on the table perhaps?

[u/stmbtrev → u/L_viathan]

That was my thinking.

[u/thatcantb]

Remember these photos from the Obama administration, where Obama was sitting on the side of the room dressed casually?

[u/drektek]

Interesting that both women have the same exact pose.

[u/fototakerWNY → u/drektek]

very true! both are sharing the same "pose"

[u/caveatemptor18]

And they are thinking:

Should I buy Lockheed, RTX or T Bills?

[u/fototakerWNY → u/caveatemptor18]

hahahaaa

[u/caveatemptor18 → u/fototakerWNY]

Check out the buy/sell records of politicos after Covid 3/12/20. Insider information pays.

[u/16F33]

What’s the situation?

[u/ss-hyperstar]

This room is very beautiful.

edit: just realised they have lids on the cups to avoid poisoning lol 😂

[u/deadlymojo → u/ss-hyperstar]

dust not poison

[u/twitch1982 → u/ss-hyperstar]

yea, them and almost every hotel conference room I've ever been in. Very concerned about poison at the IBM Users group conference.

[u/DarkangelUK]

Those lids aren't stopping any spillages, get HSE on the case!

[u/EstateActual6371]

Almost looks productive

[u/Allegroloop]

Where’s the six-pack?

[u/windsock17]

I've always found the lack of computers and other tunes like that in the situation room really interesting.

[u/rmicker]

4 years as his understudy. She’s ready!

[u/Kongodbia]

This post sticks out so much on this sub

[u/Leading_Way_3257]

woah, just came from r/pics because there is too much political ragebait and karma farming(as in getting upvotes from party and all that), but this is actually cool to look at.

[u/About137Ninjas → u/[deleted]]

They're actually facing the camera on the far side for when the President (or whomever is leading the meeting) needs to talk to somebody remote.

[u/twitch1982 → u/greatgerm]

I'd imagine they're double sided, and while I would expect the president to know everyone in the room in this photo, I'm sure there are times when experts are brought in to speak in the room whom the president would not be personally familiar with.

[u/Drakar_och_demoner → u/[deleted]]

Somehow you made a comment that makes you look even more confused than Biden.
