Isn't that the problem? From what I am googling right now, the maximum tempreature of my stove is absolutely above the threshold where it stops being chemically inert. If we were t…

Not a miracle if the math works out such that their margins cover the infrastructural fixed costs. Just simple economics.

I understand that I give them permission. That's partly why I'm not a producer of content on those platforms, though I'll consume now and then. But I'll rarely produce text (other …

I think he did her dirty. Don't think he is where he is today without her being by his side back then. She was and remains a fantastic operator.
