With Trump and the current GOP, the corruption is in plain sight anyway. At this stage, you could dig up a thousand more incriminating dossiers and it still wouldn't move the needle for the MAGhats.

It's true they would probably be more useful to the average keyboard user than say the scroll lock key, or the fucking copilot key. But to be really useful, they would have to be easily accessible without moving you bands, or else it'd just be faster to use a shortcut. Keyboards with macro keys do exist so maybe get one and map them to CTRL+C/V

I didn't see any disproportionate shitting on semaglutide in this specific article.

Your first link is from Hard Drive, which is quite obviously a parodic website, kinda like the Onion but for tech. That being said, Wikia/Fandom is a parasitic growth on the internet that leeches on the free work of countless enthusiasts, and alternative fan-run wikis should be used instead.

It's a bit ridiculous to say the only obstacle between us and "monstrous behemoths created in labs" is some sports regulations ^^'. Luckily there are already laws that severely restrict what you're allowed to do with genetic engineering, so don't you worry.

But coming back to your "monstrous behemoths", wouldn't some basketball players for example already fall in that category ? How tall is too tall? When it's about basketball, you could be 8 feet 1 (2.46 m for my metric brethren) and no-one would try to have you banned from the game, they would probably congratulate you on your lucky genetics instead. Similarly, I've never heard of any suggestion of, say, enforcing a minimum resting heart rate for endurance based sports.

Yet if you're a woman and too muscular for some obscure regulatory body's liking, you face the risk of being ostracized and banned from competing. The same genetic lottery winning ticket would in this case be considered an unfair advantage. This goes to show that unfairness is not rooted in any hard, undeniable, mesurable quantity, but is at its root a cultural phenomenon. Fairness is in the eye of the beholder, there can be no objective measure for it, -which is why I'm say it simply doesn't truly exist in sports.

The people clamoring against the inclusion of biological outliers are operating under the false -and frankly poorly thought out- idea that sports are fair and that it's only by training the hardest that you can and will achieve victory, shonen style.

Ultimately the only completely fair-ish competition is the one where you try to outdo your previous best performance and beat your own records. Otherwise, there are so many other variables you'd have to correct for to level the playing field (and testosterone levels is not a great pick for that anyway) that you might as well have single athlete categories.

That's a french 'Poilu', a WW1 soldier. I'm pretty sure he would strangle you with his sausages if he heard you call him Hans.
