A good thing for some, a bad thing for others. Good for the environment, most likely. But we're going to have to extensively reorganize the workforce.

Technically true, but they could still have an epic argument about the ownership of the x.com domain name.
Cheetahs have been tamed and used as hunting animals intermittently for thousands of years, but it seems that breeding them in captivity is difficult (in premodern times, almost impossible), so there are no true domestic lineages.
Utterly unsurprising, given that very few students are actually interested in learning.
A shame that the pioneering Japanese visual kei band stopped referring to itself as just "X" back in the mid-1990s. That would have been a trademark fight for the ages. (Or at least, the hair and costumes would have been more interesting than what Musk usually sports.)
And your list of allegations points out another problem.
I can understand insulating police officers to some extent from criminal charges incurred in the line of duty while the court process is taking place, because the nature of their job is going to mean that they get hit with more than the average number of charges for things like assault that end up not panning out . . . but there's no way intimate partner violence should be occurring in the line of duty for police, and they should not be protected from it. (Given extra mental health supports in a bid to avoid it, sure, but once it happens they need to be treated like everyone else.)
The real problem is that people automatically believe what they see online, no matter how ridiculous or outrageous, rather than thinking about probability and provenance and supporting evidence and all that stuff.
Unfortunately, this problem is not likely to be solved any time soon, since we've had more than a quarter-century now (since the advent of image editing software) to work on it. Hell, even further back than that, a certain percentage of the population could be fooled into believing in UFOs by a blurry black-and-white photograph of pie plates suspended from fishing line. We're never gonna fix this.
Organized? 😅 The most I do is containerize the loose floss to keep the thread-eating cat from getting into it.
The key word is "little", I think. Corporations come in all sizes, right down to one-man shows that have incorporated to reduce financial liability. If you've got three hundred employees, then yeah, you can probably afford to replace that one tool. If you're a three-man shop that doesn't make enough profit in a year to buy a new car, maybe not so much.
There are also going to be cases where all the possible replacements have the same issue as the original problem tool.
Well, he did leave a trail of bodies of people that were theoretically supposed to be on his side (but actually weren't, because humans), as opposed to just a trail of monster corpses.
In my opinion, having a romcom (a genre I find either dead boring or wince-worthy depending on the show) in the top ten at all is an error. 😜
While the climate crisis is a significant part of what ails the environment, it's far from the only thing. Lowering the human population should mean reduced destruction of surviving animal habitats and populations, for instance. And the greater the genetic diversity in an animal population, the better its chances of adapting to external events like climate change become.
