Bytedance is not a US company.

The in-lore explanation is that we are created by the god(s) in their own image. Much like if you made a toy to play with other toys, you'd probably make something humanoid, or at least anthropomorphic.

Unless you want to talk about Lovecraftian horror gods, but in that lore, humans weren't created by the gods (as far as I know).

A lot of food handling instructions in religion are rudimentary sanitation practices. For example, food must be consumed same day, not left out. Don't eat raw shellfish. Don't drink blood. Wash your hands.

That's trivial to do where you control the link text. For example: https://www.google.com/

Walmart is the only one that does, but they only do it to bully them into selling at almost no profit.

Either you bike a lot, or you use very thin tires. I bike occasionally, and I still have the original tires on my bike that I've had since I bought it in 2018, I think.

It's not even a news article, it's an opinion column.

If I had my expenses covered I'd still do some kind of work. Some things I just enjoy doing.

New Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max? Are they taking a page out of Nintendo's naming manual?

Yeah, in English (in the US, generally) we'd call that a civil violation. Or a civil action where a lawsuit is brought by a private citizen, like suing someone for damaging your property. It's against the law, but probably not going to be prosecuted by the government.

In English, at least for the US, there are typically only misdemeanors and felonies, and both are crimes. There are also violations, but those are usually civil, not criminal (parking tickets, for example).
