Yeah, like if they can't reform to represent their voters then we're gonna have to throw the whole party out. Not really the type of play I want to have to make in the current situation though.

If it is only used in court it isn't influencing an election. So they'd still be in the clear.
There are laws about it for military stuff, they actually can just be legally nationalized if a CEO is being a traitor. I'm not sure about the timeline for that to be done but trying to do it at all would have been better than continuing with no consequences.
There are limited alternatives to starlink in war zones with infrastructure at risk like Ukraine, not to mention the government contracts that were signed to pay and use them mean switching isn't the easiest.

Shipping probably already started.

B2B deals will have fine print about when units will arrive and be "released".
That's been true since slow-walking advanced equipment and allowing Musk to remain free and not nationalizing Starlink after he fucked parts of the counteroffensive.
Even in baobab forest pictures they seem far enough apart for sunlight not to be an issue. I'd hazard either an environmental or animal caused adaptation (but I can't seem to find anything about why).
I'd also say for forests in general "crown shyness" means if they get similar enough height they usually avoid one another rather than compete.
Not really, financial collapse=back to barter system= "fine" metal has limited value. Copper, tin, iron sure but no one needs gold or silver in that scenario. The people who will want it will be limited to those with excess and they'll know no one else wants it.
If you can't eat it or use it it isn't worth anything with the world in that state. There's wonderful things called notarized (or in this case just witnessed or just trusted) deals regarding situations where someone might want/need something they cannot get with their resources at the time. Things such as land or labor can be used as collateral. Currency requires some sort of centralized organization to say it has worth. Financial collapse means that would take a long time to return.
The great depression took about 7y for investors to be break even and about 25 for actual point recovery in the Dow (more dividends than straight stock increase back then). The 08/09 recession was point recovered in about 4-5y on the stock market. If the country collapses your money is worthless regardless of where you stored it. If the country recovers you've made it ahead a bit.

From what I've seen elsewhere he appointed ~80% of the voting cardinals so there's a better chance than usual that new pope will be at least relatively liberal.
Looking at a couple publications from the lab funding appears to be from a couple different foundations but nothing commercial. Pharma barely puts anything into basic R+D unless they're a startup. Established pharma R+D is largely clinical trials and/or process development. If her work is patented by the university then pharma may pay the university to use her work. University would then give a smaller kickback to the lab/scientists.
NCI (national cancer institute-part of NIH) was the largest cancer research funder in the US, about 7B worth and even then less than 10% of proposed projects were being funded. The ACS (American cancer society) funds about 100M.
She started out quite strong then the Hillary advisors stepped in and she started cozying up to "ex"Republicans as if that would get her some sort of cross support from the maga cult.
