Clearly this was AI-generated.

From what I can tell from the article, it's not clear what the guy was selling. Maybe it was the claimed drugs, maybe it was water, but he had no idea and he was not only unaware, but also was making claims ("highest quality" and "made in the US') that were patently false.

So he wasn't so much "providing a path to medicines" as he was fraudulently making the claim he was doing so while putting all his customers at risk of harm.

Yes, most scuba divers typically have a snorkel as well, to make it easier to breathe while on the surface without using air from the tank.

The first time I visited there, I wanted to live there. Like this book I read in school when I was in third grade, where the kids hide out in the museum overnight.

I just learned far more about snail mating practices than I ever needed to know.

I believe that's his stated reason (as noted in the text you quoted) for recusing himself and his entire office, no? Do you think that's an inappropriate response to a clear conflict of interest?

Or were you referring to the previous situation, where a sitting judge and prosecutor were related? That seems like a valid point, though perhaps it's easier to remain impartial in that case.

You're right, but not in the way you think you are.

"gigibyte" is not a thing, but "gibibyte" is.

I believe you mean "guerilla marketing" campaign.
