And not sell any routers because to have a sufficiently American supply chain they'd cost 4-10x as much and be unavailable in quantity (the domestic suppliers for the relevant components are pretty low-volume because they only exist to support the military)

Existing router manufacturers will get exemptions, which will prevent them from challenging the law in court. Would-be newcomers will not get exemptions and thus be out of luck, because they won't have the resources to challenge the law.

And when those quotas aren't met, standards are lowered to magically make more people qualify that otherwise wouldn't.

The FAA didn't even stop there. They made a "biographical questionnaire" which had no objectively correct answers, and then handed out the answers they wanted to the National Black Coalition of Federal Aviation Employees (NBCFAE) to be passed on to black candidates.

They will also be replacing the LED lighting in the schools with candles, and heat will be provided by hand-stoked coal furnaces.

... if they hadn't let the environmentalists shut down Indian Point.

I bet the same people objecting to these bogus lawsuits -- which are really an attempt to legislate via the civil court system -- are also crying about how the US isn't opening the Strait of Hormuz.

Back to the Future IV and Family Ties reboot when?

Your links are to Iranians in the US and Canada. Supporters of the Shah, other people who don't like the Islamic Republic, and their descendants, most likely. Not really a good sample. What about the people OF Iran, you know, the ones who voted 98% "Yes" for the Islamic Republic in 1979, and THEIR descendants? The ones who like to chant "Death to America"? Sure, a few were having second thoughts earlier in the year, but the leaders of that bunch all got killed; there's almost no one left in country to oppose the Ayatollahs.

I'm pretty sure that Hegseth does, in fact, want Skynet.

One day it's "AI Bubble is Going To Burst", the next it's "AI Is Going To Eat The Economy".

All headphones likely also contain "chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth anomalies, or other reproductive harm."

Maybe there's actually an issue here. But a group calling itself the "ToxFREE Project" strikes me as to be far more like the State of California and its Proposition 65 warnings than an objective observer.

Aren't those "Made in " labels Federally regulated by the Federal Trade Commission? If so this lawsuit is going to get dismissed on Federal supremacy grounds.

Waiting for the engine to start gives them time to put down their cellphone. (Theoretically, anyway, they don't actually put it down until after the honking starts)

The definition isn't particularly coherent. Cane and beet sugar are Group II, but "sugar, oils, and fats for domestic use" are Group IV? Which is it? Ice cream is Group IV despite being milk (Group), cream, sugar, and salt (all Group II)... are they complaining about the often-present emulsifier ,which as a vegetable extract should also be Group II? Certainly it should be Group III at worst. Sausage is Group IV despite the processing in sausage being pretty much purely physical; perhaps they don't know how the sausage is made.

(And of course that pre-Columbian Mexican staple, the tortilla, is clearly Group IV)

This is why pretty much every major 20th century technology was invented in the US (telephony, movies, semiconductors, aerospace, the internet etc.).

Telephony was invented in the 19th century by a Canadian born in Scotland who ultimately became a US citizen. The work was apparently split between the US and Canada. Scotland is also one of those places that had a disproportionate number of inventors -- if you look a little earlier to the Industrial Revolution, especially, you'll note a lot of Scots.
