I've been using Kagi for a while now and I love it. I actually get useful search results. Yeah, it's paid, but it's sooo worth it.

Here's what your query looks like in Kagi:

The headline kind of reads like Google made a Pixel 9 Pro Mini, which would be awesome. Please do that Google.

My partner uses a Logitech MX Ergo. It doesn't match all your specs, but it's a very nice mouse. The initially purchased mouse was refurbished from Amazon and it was having problems connecting to multiple devices. Logitech sent a completely new mouse no questions asked!

I think you're giving companies too much credit. Freakonomics did a series called "Does Advertising Actually Work?" and the tl;dr was ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

“I have to wait for the statute of limitations so I don’t go to jail,” Ankrom quipped.

LOL

That would be an interesting twist. Alt Tony Stark is Dr. Doom so the real Dr. Doom joins the Avengers to save the universe. Although Doom's motivation would likely be to prove he's the superior Doom. Seems like that would make a decent Secret Wars plotline.

I'm wondering if they'll turn an alternative universe Tony Stark into Doom. Are there any comics where this happens?

As far as feelings: very excited. I was bummed when Robert Downey Jr. exited the MCU and it will be nice to have him back. I hope it's more than a cameo.

Because it's illegal to just take them?

Ah, I was going by what they taught me at baptist church when I was a kid. I guess they lied to me. I'm shocked!

Here's another one:

23 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Truly I tell you, it is hard for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of heaven. 24 Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.”

Matthew 19:23-24

~~The "eye of a needle" referenced here was a small opening in the city walls meant to reduce traffic for security. A camel piled up with goods would would have a difficult time passing through it.~~

For full context, check out Matthew 19:16-28: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%2019&version=NIV

Edit: as others have pointed out, there isn't any good evidence about the "eye of a needle" metaphor. I heard this from my pastor at church when I was a kid and it sounds like he was mistaken. I wonder what else he got wrong...
