I'm in Oregon. Straight down the i-5 from Portland, which is where I understand it to have started

I can say that all 4 of my dogs caught it.
They're still alive, but my 13 year old has not and probably won't return to full function. He's got some pretty significant scarring on his lungs. We are in one of the affected states, and they caught it from the neighbors' dogs who brought it home from the groomers.
It's definitely in my area.
If you make a product and want to claim that it or its ingredients are organic, your final product probably needs to be certified.
That word probably exists in the same article you originally linked.
But many actually don't do it which is why they don't use the USDA certified
Do you know how many companies use just organic, and not "usda certified organic"
Most
It's always funny when people make bad jokes, and insist it's everyone else who has a shitty sense of humor.

No company holds themselves back from viable improvement because of a timeline thrown out at the beginning. What a weird take.
What is more likely "nope wecan't make a change yet, this better product is out on every other peice of tech we and our competitors used, but someone said 10 years 2 years ago so we're gonna wait another 6 to begin development"
Or
"This product is so serviceable enough for charging a phone and as long as we keep it we can continue to make significant money off of proprietary connectors"
They upgraded the iPad because the lightening was no longer a viable charging cable, the tech couldn't keep up. And the EU has been threatening to establish a standard since the 30pin was in service, because it locked out competition back then. It became a serious issue to deal with after dongles became standard.
Edit: Oh God it's you. 4 days later and another hot shit take. Apparently I need to block you to improve my lemmy experience.
It's literally the title of the post my dude.
That was said in response to the context of Danny Masterson being sentenced to jail for rape.
It is relevant, and you are choosing to die on the hill of pedantry on a point no one but you is actually asserting. You choose to take a figure of speech, that was a juxtaposition of the title of the article and apply an absolute. It doesn't read that easy to anyone who isn't making a choice to omit the context.
The juxtaposition of "anyone he wants without raping them" against "sentenced to 30 years for rape" has a pretty clear contextual implication that you intentionally ignored.
Cross stitching.
I must have $700 worth of floss a 200$ custom stand and then accessories, I just gave away 82 skeins of off brand that advertised dmc dye standards, but WEREN'T. Don't buy floss from Amazon kids, it's worth it to do a custom order from joanns or Michael's mid project.
It started with wanting to do a fun little Christmas ornament project with the Littles and now I have 7 mid finished projects including a massive LOTR project I've restated 3 times, that has 1 of 12 8×11 pages done on this beast l nearly 3'x2' Aida cloth.

The problem is 9 times out of 10, your problem solving won't help because they've already thought of the fix or you don't have enough of the nuance involved to offer a viable solution. So to insist on offering, means that your partner now has to balance your ego and how to tell you "yeah I know" or why your idea won't work.
Top the rational thinker, the problem is "I need to vent my emotions in a healthy manner" and the rational solution is "listen" and if the problem transitions from "I need to vent" to "I need help" then you can work on a solution together.
