What's amazing to me is how little of a difference they have between the regular and pro models: https://www.apple.com/iphone/compare/ It basically boils down to a few relatively minor camera features perhaps

This might be a naive question, but given that plastic is made of oil, and that it doesn’t decompose, isn’t it a great way to perform carbon sequestration? In other words, isn’t the use of plastics replaces potential carbon emission via bur

Fair use doesn’t require the usage to be non-commercial, otherwise news sites wouldn’t exist as they are today. It’s one of the aspect that the usage is evaluated on, but not a requirement.

FB would have too much scrutiny and chances for the deals to fail to pass regulators. If they are really looking for a quick and guaranteed deal, they’d look elsewhere.

You are failing to account for the gender imbalance. Consider an extreme gender ratio where for the 2.1 born for an average woman, there are 2 males and 0.1 females. This means that every generation will have 10X less women.
