I can’t. How many police officers possibly participated in the raid, and how many pizza pies an average policeman can eat? Let’s say 2 at max, that suggests 35 policemen. WTF?

“Google has taken great pains to appear more open than Apple, licensing the Android operating system to third parties like Samsung and allowing users to install apps via other methods than the Play store.

I also would point out that Google and Apple sells very different things. Apple does not sell iOS. It sells hardware to customers and the right to access users through this hardware to third parties (game makers). Google’s product to begin with is software (Operating System) on multiple phone platforms. Different laws and rules may apply there.
Wanting to feel love and happiness is quite rational too. Irrational feelings are not “anti- rational” they are just orthogonal, like color to taste. But making decisions based pure on feelings IS anti-rational.
Reading about the current events got me looking into the history of Palestine and Israel, and I noticed a lot of Israel’s politicians (like Yitzhak Shamir, Menachem Begin, and Ariel Sharon to name a few) were Zionist terrorists (using the word literally, not subjectively) since before the establishment of Israel. The groups...
You should have continued citing your sources to have complete picture and correct historical context, not picking and choosing since it creates distorted picture:
Believing that Nazi Germany was a lesser enemy of the Jews than Britain, Lehi twice attempted to form an alliance with the Nazis, proposing a Jewish state based on "nationalist and totalitarian principles, and linked to the German Reich by an alliance".[22][23] After Stern's death in 1942, the new leadership of Lehi began to move towards support for Joseph Stalin's Soviet Union[17] and the ideology of National Bolshevism, which was considered an amalgam of both right and left.

Treating toenail fungus at home involves a combination of hygiene practices and over-the-counter (OTC) treatments. However, it's important to note that severe cases may require medical attention, and home remedies might not be effective for everyone. Here are some strategies you can try:
Keep your feet clean and dry: Fungus thrives in moist environments, so it's crucial to keep your feet and toenails as dry and clean as possible.
Trim your nails: Keep your toenails trimmed straight across and file down thickened areas. Use a separate nail clipper for infected nails to prevent spreading the fungus.
Use antifungal treatments: There are various OTC antifungal creams, ointments, and nail polishes designed for toenail fungus. Terbinafine (Lamisil) and clotrimazole (Lotrimin) are common options.
Try essential oils: Some studies suggest that tea tree oil has antifungal properties. Apply a small amount to the affected nail twice daily. Other essential oils like oregano oil may also have antifungal effects, but they should be used with caution as they can be irritating to the skin.
Soak your feet: Vinegar soaks or baking soda soaks may help. For a vinegar soak, mix equal parts of vinegar and water and soak your feet for up to 20 minutes daily. For a baking soda soak, add a few tablespoons of baking soda to warm water.
Change socks and shoes regularly: Fungus can survive in shoes, so it's essential to wear breathable footwear and change your socks at least once a day.
Use antifungal powders: Apply antifungal powders or sprays inside your shoes and socks to reduce moisture and fungus growth.
Avoid nail polish and artificial nails: These can trap moisture and worsen the infection.
Improve your diet: A healthy diet can boost your immune system and help your body fight off infections, including toenail fungus.
Remember, home remedies can be effective for mild cases, but they may take several months to work, and there's a chance the infection might return. If your toenail fungus is painful, spreading, or causing significant discomfort, it's best to consult a healthcare provider for more advanced treatment options, such as prescription antifungal medications or, in severe cases, nail removal.

The best convincing answer is the correct one. The correlation of AI answers with correct answers is fairly high. Numerous test show that. The models also significantly improved (especially paid versions) since introduction just 2 years ago.
Of course it does not mean that it could be trusted as much as Wikipedia, but it is probably better source than Facebook.
