Possible yes, likely, no. An example, the collision of the Milky Way with Andromeda is likely to produce no collisions of solar systems. Space is big.

Never really had an issue with it, even use it to send my details to others for contacts. Faster than handing phones around, and people then start sending me "happy birthday" texts as my contact info has that junk in it.

You've obviously not met many C programmers. I have a new general rule: if it confuses clang-format, it probably shouldn't be a macro in the first place. The amount of time I hit that pulled out of my butt rule in daily code revie

I know many people that have iphones so they can use iMessage. Doesn't mean they don't use other apps, but imessage is pretty common around my parts and a distinct reason some people don't buy android phones.

As someone that has a godfather that has an actual Bison ranch, Bison are definitely still here thankfully, and are simultaneously awe inspiring and fear inducing. That part of Dances with Wolves where they leave a trail is not inaccurate.

Try using a "modern" site on a spotty 2g connection. Then realize that level of a connection is more common than you think. You never hear it elsewhere because those users just don't use your site, because they can't.
