Do you remember the time Marco Rubio repeated the same thing twice during a presidential debate ? His speech included calling the US “the greatest nation in the history of the world” but no one minded that.

In most countries you would be ridiculed for saying something like that, but from what I understand Americans are taught that their country is the best in basically everything and they are very lucky to be born there because every other place is worse off.

I’m unsure I get your point, how does waste prevent a shortage from becoming a famine ?

Also, both raw cauliflower and tinned tomatoes can be eaten almost as is.

My guess would be yes, the whole point of including a legacy port like this would be compatibility. Laptops used (still use?) PS/2 long after desktops moved to USB keyboards because the lack of polling meant improved battery life, so it’d make sense for the hardware support to still be there.
