They don’t plow into the ground. They enter it in a perfect vertical akin to top Olympic divers, and to claim any less is libel

Arms manufacturers want more $ and can’t get more $ if the stockpiles are full
Most countries that aren’t America aren’t inundated with anti-China rhetoric, so if someone starts spouting off about China (and especially Chinese civil rights, or uses the term “CCP”) in English they’re almost certainly an American.
Does China lag behind the west in terms of queer rights? Yes. We’re critical of that but also recognize the grassroots initiatives within the CPC to change that, and support those efforts. Does China pollute more in raw numbers than America? Yeah, but they’re also the global leader in green power production, so they’re clearly working to fix the emissions problem, which we support. China also takes a non-imperialist stance internationally, which is far and away better than anything America has ever done internationally.
It’ll be fine. There’s always some cohort of people who take an actual interest in the magic boxes enough to want to learn compsci.
Probably if they decided to assertively solve the matter they’d provide free extermination services and temporary clean housing (for the day or two it takes to do a clean extermination) for affected households and use the data of which addresses have used the service to map out infestation sources and clear them.

Half the user-facing internet broke for a few hours when one guy withdrew a shitty one-liner piece of JavaScript (the whole leftpad thing) because someone somewhere added it as a dependency to a dependency to a dependency until it was pulled into an enormous frontend library. The internet relies more on random open source contributions than a lot of people are aware of.
Musk is an idiot who bought Twitter stock, tried to pump and dump, waived due diligence as part of the pump, and found himself contractually obligated to buy the company. Everything since then is what Musk thinks are good ideas.
It’s mostly to sell to the Japanese market iirc. Not many in Iceland actually have a taste for whale. Huge waste of time and resources.

Ehhh, not really. If showing 10,000 people an ad costs you $10 and even one person made a purchase off that, you’ve paid for the ad buy. Internet ad conversions are considered unbelievably excellent if 1% of viewers click on the ad and 1% of those people make a purchase.
Also, if you don’t advertise, then your competition that do advertise are going to eat your lunch.
Actually? I thought it was because Marxist-Leninist. Domains are like ten bucks a year
A damning condemnation of your education system, to be certain
I want for very little. Therefore I clearly want ads personalized to me that try to make me feel inadequate so that I do want more.
They’re gonna fuck it up and crash it into Lima, I’m calling it
