For better or worse, most of the online pharmacies like Ro or Hims will prescribe it to anyone with a pulse. Some insurance companies don't cover it unless your BMI is over like 40.
> For example, look at the frivolous spending of the US on it's superior military budget and its belief it is the strongest military in the world.
One can just look at the Ukraine vs. Russia war to see there is an immense technological gap between the US and Russia. Everyone thought Russia was the #2 military in the world before the war, but nowadays might be at best #3. Ukraine is holding Russia back and/or inflicting horrendous casualties on Russian forces using only a couple percent fraction of the US defense budget, and largely with old/leftover/unused equipment. Reminder too that Ukraine doesn't have the backing of the US Air Force or the US Navy, which the US would absolutely use in the event of conflict with Russia.
Granted, this war has exposed a lot of shortfalls with the US Military with respects to advanced weapons procurement, artillery shell production, and drone warfare, but it's also been an intelligence goldmine for western militaries that is already starting to produce changes in strategy.
> the expensive US technology would be quickly overwhelmed and defeated by cheaper technology that were not accounted for in the last few decades i.e. UAVs + AI.
Russia has failed to destroy a single Patriot battery or HIMARS system, despite those being in-conflict for a while now. If drones were such a wunderwaffe that made advanced tech useless, then all of that tech would have been destroyed by now.
China is likely #2 now with an impressive on-paper military, but they also have not been battle tested in decades with lots of unproven tech.
It's rumored Dylan Field (CEO of Figma) approached Microsoft [1] around the same time they were talking to Adobe but Microsoft declined to make a deal at the time (seemingly due to Microsoft's then in-process $69billion acquisition of Activision Blizzard).
I think they saw 20 billion reasons to sell to Adobe. Their last valuation was $10billion in 2021 so a 2x on that a year later would be hard for anyone to pass up. They can pretend they went with Adobe for aspirational aims to make the product better, but at the end of the day it was about the very juicy multiple Adobe was offering.
I think the door is still open for Microsoft, Google, Apple or Salesforce to make a play. Figma was rumored to have approached Microsoft during their talks with Adobe but Microsoft declined to put in an offer as they were working through the Activision Blizzard acquisition at the time. Either one could probably get a "deal" at a $10-$15b valuation.
