No, Nintendo does this kind of thing every so often, where they'll just make an incremental upgrade to an existing console, rather than build a completely new one. The DSi wasn't a massive step up from the DS Lite, which itself wasn't that major of a step up from the DS, and the GBA SP wasn't a huge step up from the GBA.
At most, they just have a minor additional gimmick, but everything else more or less remains the same. Switch 2's gimmick is allegedly letting you use the joycons like computer mice.
The Revenue Service would much rather you pay your taxes, even if it was from an illegal activity, rather than just avoid paying them at all, to avoid the risk of prosecution.
Since those smaller models are technically fine-tunes of Meta/Facebook's LLAMA, using Deepseek's outputs, I wonder if they would be covered by the bill at all.
Same for the other kinds of stool. More than a few phlebotomists would be quite concerned about sitting on a stool and having it start bleeding under them, or seeing stools in a blood sample.
I think part of it is also that Star Trek is hampered by its own branding. No network would want to risk their cash cow by having them be controversial, so they'll keep it safe.
I have quite a hard time envisioning any new Star Trek nearly getting the show taken off of the air by pushing boundaries like the original Star Trek did.
The big ones have arguably been that way since the beginning. The original XBox was a stripped down and fancified computer, down to using the USB protocol for the controllers.
Normally, it would be the electoral system that would act as the check. But otherwise, it doesn't put any other limits based on political belief and affiliation (other than having allegiances to other political powers). If the majority wanted to elect someone who wishes to abolish the democratic election system, then that is what they will get.
That's possibly for the better. Being able to bar given political alignments or affiliation from office would either need to be so specific so as to be useless (a modern nazi typically has little directly to do with the original), or be broad enough that it'd be a dangerous thing, since it could be used in either direction.
It shouldn't be, but it is. 20 years ago, in the far-off year of 2005, a lot of tech companies more or less followed the same path, where it took decades for them to actually be profitable, if they were at all.
YouTube ran at a deficit for something close to 15 years. AI companies are likely following this trend, and running mostly on investment money, rather than being self-sufficient.
The advertising companies would riot if they did count as impressions, so Facebook would either not count them as such, or hold off on them for that reason.
Humans do bioluminisce, it's just too weak for human eyes and most detectors.
