SpaceX works at the pinnacle. Elon just goes into a K hole and comes up with ideas. Most of which are garbage.
The people doing the work at SpaceX should be applauded because they are pushing boundaries of science and technology.

No, we really should hate the players. They are keeping the game from changing.

The lack of animals to domesticate meant fewer zoonotic diseases in Native American populations, so they were ill equipped when those diseases appeared.
IIRC, there was a massive plague in North America a decade or so before Columbus arrived.

It's probably whatever "1 cup" means to the patient. The researchers would want them to stick to their status quo for the best results.
For example, 1 cup of coffee for my wife involves a blend of coffee and espresso beans with no adders, but 1 cup to her dad means lighter roast bean with milk. Both options have different caffeine contents and nutritional values.

No. It's not considered interstate commerce when one purchases goods or services in a state one is visiting. No goods or services crossed state lines.

I have been using Matomo along side GA4 for a month now. The amount of useful data coming from Matomo, even anonymized, is more expansive and easier to access than GA4. Plus self-hosting was pretty easy and it keeps the data on our servers, which just feels right.

Any time the government tries to do something for The People, the wealthy and their mouthpieces get a portion of the population to believe the much needed help is actually evil socialism/communism and will destroy their way of life.
America has been propagandized to by the wealthy for a century and this is the end result. The world's richest person reforming the government for profit.

Made the switch from BitWarden to ProtonPass a few months ago. I'm very happy with the switch despite Proton Pass missing some android functionality BitWarden has.

To be fair, the US government has been able to monitor who communicates with whom and how many pages their conversation is through the postal service since the beginning. Today it's much easier to track those physical with technology and automation.

I'm overly excited about this. Winamp was a huge part of my early computer experience, even went so far as to (poorly) design my own. Can't wait to start using this!
