You are insane.

The statistics do not match your statements. Perhaps you should not drink that koolaid. It seems to be as related to reality as kooks are to facts; estranged.
The FDA lied about it, got sued, and had to retract their statement. I have that linked somewhere around here too. Ah, https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bloomberg.com%2Fnews...
Your summary completely -- and I would further suggest deliberately and maliciously -- mischaracterizes the case. The article you cite states that the Fifth Circuit found that the FDA overstepped its authority by providing medical advice. Nowhere did the court find the FDA's statements were materially false or misleading -- it is and remains a fact that ivermectin is ineffective and inappropriate for treating COVID. Therefore, claiming the FDA "lied" willfully misrepresents the case.
The article then goes on to support my point and the Democratic Administration's efforts -- that misinformation concerning COVID-19 was and remains rampant, and that it needs to be combatted for the sake of public health.
Speech is not violence. Speech is not a threat to public health. Speech is necessary to find truth in society.
Look up the term, "fighting words." Then go visit a venue with a principally African American clientele, and explain how you should be free to use the N-word without consequence, because it's merely "speech."
It sounds to me like your sanctimonious polemics would be better received on X. They have a prettier UI as well. Off you go, sonny...
...there was extensive documentation on how Biden pressured social media companies to silence everyday American citizens. [

Couple 'o things:
Not even ordinary evidence was provided. So we can set that nonsensical statement aside.
The Truth: The Biden Administration was seeking to remove maliciously posted lies and falsehoods concerning COVID-19's risks and how to mitigate them, so that people without mad Google sk1llz searching for information on staying healthy would be less likely to encounter false, life-threatening information.
Example: Back in 2020, there was this slob who suggested on national television that the best way to avoid COVID was to inject disinfectant , and that the disease could by treated by ivermectin -- which is a horse de-wormer (i.e. an anti-parasitic, not an anti-viral). Both claims were absolute bullshit , but nevertheless got repeated millions of times on social media by "everyday Americans." It was this kind of LIFE-THREATENING GARBAGE that the Democratic Administration was seeking to mitigate. So that people wouldn't, y'know... die.
Well. It seems that Google has been cowed by -- or now is under the complete control of -- fascist filth.

Time to go down the Panspermia rabbit hole!
That the primary motivator towards forcing the sale wasn't the algorithm as such, it was the probability that the PRC would use TikTok as a propaganda tool.
The Republicans aren't conservative in any sensible meaning of the word. They are radicals. The Democrats are far more conservative than the Republicans these days.
Lots of medical workers, especially in rural hospitals, are on H1-Bs.
I never stopped coming in to the office. Before that I worked in industrial automation, and that work couldn't be done remotely either.
ve never seen a software distribution mechanism as careless and sloppy as NPM. Bazillions of dependencies and no signing of packages. [

Rust's cargo packaging system is almost exactly the same way. And the last time I looked, Go's packaging was very similar. And package signing won't help if the maintainer's key/cert has been exfiltrated and cracked.
This is what you get when you embrace DLL Hell -- the idea that you should pin your program to a single specific revision of a library, rather than, y'know, doing the engineering work to ensure that, as an app author, you're relying only on documented behavior; and, as a library author, to be responsible for creating backward compatibility for old apps linking to old entry points. Sticking to that principle lets you update shared system libraries with the latest enhancements and bug fixes, while remaining relatively sure none of the old clients will break.
"Sometimes you have to break backward compatibility." Agreed, but the interval between those breaks should be measured in years, not days.
I can't do that, because my IV infusion pump is USB A, the CO2 monitor is RS485 and the heart monitor is IEEE1284 parallel port.
This is just a timing issue. You can already get every device like mice, keyboards, headsets etc with USB C. If you've never seen one, perhaps you're not getting out enough.
As for RS485? That's _forty years old_, well done, you're a hipster outlier and that has nothing to do with anyone other than 3 people anymore. Come on, that's just a stupid analogy.
If you want to use decades old tech, congrats, you get a dongle. Stick them on the end of each USB cable/device, they're a few mm long, you won't even notice. I'm still running a motherboard and CPU from 2011. I'm not exactly Gen Z. It would be idiocy for me, or you, or anyone, to be insisting on USB A devices now for no better reason than "well I haven't seen a USB C mouse yet"
(and that's because they're bluetooth - god you're going to be furious when you hear about that)
"diesel engines are known for being especially difficult to start in cold."
When I was in the Army in Korea in 1985/86 one of the duties on the duty roster was to start every vehicle in the motor pool every 4 hours and run it for half an hour to keep it warm. Nothing like getting up at 0200 on a Sunday morning to spend an hour in the motor pool.
"Vaccines, COVID, masking, conspiracies, Trump. All in a gigantic doom loop that's not worth re-visiting ad nauseam."
But is 't the motto here, "news for nerds; stuff that matters." Those all sound like they matter.
"So just stop already. And please, stop with the microplastics while you're at it."
Ok, Chicken Little. Sticking your head in the sand and going LALALALALALALALALAL (*raspberries/fart sound*) because reality refuses to conform to your personal beliefs? Your head is so far up your ass! Grow up.
A budget is just a method of worrying before you spend money, as well as afterward.
