Yeah, All Top [time duration] just pulls the most highly voted of the selected time length. The shorter the time period the easier it is to run out.

I'm not exactly average, but I'm definitely not a biologist lol

Evolution is throwing things against the wall and seeing what sticks (by sticking I mean reproducing bc you have better traits). If every single one of their prey and predators have this color blindness then orange and green would have the same effectiveness and whichever trait comes out first. If a prey/predator evolved to have better color vision then it would quickly become a disadvantage and after millions of years it's possible they evolve to have green fur.

There could be other benefits like being easier to attract mates.

Also some animals can see infrared, so even if their fur was perfect for the environment they could still have issues by being spotted, in which case the color doesn't matter as much and the colors for mating becomes more important.

Edit: Wording.

Let's go, we saved 30 bucks! Only 20 trillion more to go!

Kids aren't a worthwhile investment in the future, right?

A couple of things here

Defimation isn't a criminal offense, this is a civil lawsuit. There is no conviction or guilt/innocence.

Second the previous ruling you're referring to had basically no chance of holding him accountable. Bc the courts moved so slowly (intentionally in some cases) Trump was able to delay any punishment enforcement until he was president, which then he'd be immune. The judge could have ordered different punishment then no punishment, but it just increases the chance of appeal and wasted time at that point.

Lastly the most likely outcome is the case stalls bc he is president (and thus has civil immunity [and technically criminal bc supreme Court nonsense but that's not important here]) and it would never go to trial.

The court system is messed up in a lot of ways, but it's still important to be honest where the failures and issues are in the system instead of blaming a judge that had no real choice in the matter.

Everything with a message is propaganda. If I tell you to where a mask to protect those around you it's propaganda. Nobody is immune to propaganda.

Anti-propaganda would definitely mean factual information without bias or a message. It's not a real thing though, so in their meaning they clearly just mean anything they disagree with.

Unless the variable is named "countMinusOne" then I'm bringing back 6

Is there a special mode where being an American is a disease? Because it would explain why the US wants Greenland so bad

If you're saying two variables are equal, then x=x is valid. The only issue with this is it doesn't indicate the restriction at x=0. This is a "hole" in the function since anything/0 is undefined. For all other cases the equation holds true.

Most people will look at All or Subscribed, and as long as the instance is federated (most instances federate with almost everyone regardless of size) it'll show up for them.
