No… porque no los dos
Tbf the Arkansas Sphinx is real, but it’s a natural rock formation that sort of resembles the Sphinx if you view it from the right angle and squint a bit. So I guess they get partial credit for that one.

Even supposing apolitical content, I wouldn’t want to generate anything for Twitter.

Would? Why should any ticket guarantee a win based solely on arbitrary characteristics of the candidates? Nothing about being a woman, a man, trans, cis, gay, straight, bi, ace, black, white, Latino, Asian, biracial, triracial, short, tall, hirsute, bald, balding, skinny, jacked, overweight, or any other randomly chosen descriptor should be a factor in electability. The fact that it’s even in question is a strong indictment of how we view politics in a broad sense.
That’s one hell of a shelf life…

That’s exactly why I deleted it. Seemed a little too dry and slightly mean right after I posted it, so I immediately hit delete.

Plus I can’t even think of a popular show in the past 10 years that had a meaningful conclusion. I don’t really watch a lot of TV so this could easily just be that I’m out of the loop, but it seems like a lot of endings are bad.
Justified ended in 2015, Better Call Saul wrapped up in 2022. I think those two qualify as solid conclusions. It speaks to your point that I could only readily come up with two examples.
I find it hard to take seriously anyone who throws the term FUD around with no sense of irony.

To add to your point regarding additional functions inherent in smartphones: pagers do one thing. They’re relatively simple devices. Simplicity means that there are fewer things that can cause the device to function incorrectly or fail to function altogether. In hospital communications use-cases, this is a huge benefit.
Additionally, pagers are relatively inexpensive. Therefore, it’s much more effective to have multiple spares available for distribution compared to smartphones. If a pager is inoperable, it can quickly be swapped out with a backup while the original is repaired or replaced. Smartphones do not carry that benefit.
