The promise Theranos made was that their tests could be run with a much smaller sample of blood than other labs. Therefore, the results were inherently unreliable even if they used real machines, because they didn't have the sample amount the machines were designed for.
Find a way to work a small amount of exercise into your daily routine. Walk places instead of driving, do some jumping jacks in the morning or before bed, something simple that you can get yourself to do without much stress or planning. If you do it consistently, even 10-20 minutes of exercise a day can make a big difference in the long run.
Right-wingers are always surprised to face consequences for their actions.
Calling Hamas "democratically elected" is a huge stretch. Hamas recieved 44.45% of votes in the last election, which was in 2006. They are absolutely not in any way accountable to the people they rule. The average Palestinian has about as much chance of freeing those hostages as I have of breaking people out of Guantanamo.
Every store? Obviously not. Running cargo trams through major business or industrial districts, though? More plausible, if the will exists.

Something like that, but as a public service.
Depends on how you define "state". IIRC, Marx drew a distinction between "state" and "government", where the former is all the coercive institutions (cops, prisons, courts, etc). In this framework, you need a "government" to do the things you refer to, but participation in that government's activities should be voluntary, without the threat of armed government agents showing up at your door if you don't comply.

This is the only experiment that comes up from Googling Manitoba UBI, and it doesn't seem to match what you say. A study of about 2k people, definitely not the whole population, and this article lists quite a number of positive statements about it.
The US economy (and much of the rest of the world) actually went into recession after ww1. Then after ww2 you have to consider that the US was one of the very few industrialized countries that didn't get its cities blown up. The war was 'good' for the US mostly because it was much worse for everyone else.
I guess the lesson is that Netflix was always doomed the moment the companies that actually produce and/or own all the content realized how lucrative streaming could be. They were only as successful as they were because they had no competition.
I would suggest something like "These products were found to have health risks."
100% agreed. These people only care about Jews in so far as they are useful political props. Ask the members of the Tree of Life synagogue or the passengers of the MS St Louis how much of "Judeo-Christian" society we are.
The worst thing about the campus protests is that there are no universities left in Gaza.
