Or at the least, a violation of the Logan Act.

Harshest punishment requires the warning and ignoring of it.

Does it say that in the law code? I thought that being ignorant of the law doesn’t matter for most prosecutions (“ignorantia juris non excusat”)

Travel to a different state and have sex for only $100? What a cheapskate.

Does he really think $500M would significantly change a city? As if the city would get any part of it, or that Dubai is something to desire…

Maybe it only happens for Europeans?

But then I’m going to get even more blood on me?

Well, they got denied by Försäkringskassan, “Swedish Social Insurance Agency”. Basically wouldn’t be able to get sick-pay, but that’s about it. Which is a bit weird, as nearly all first-time requests get approved, but of course it happens.

So it’s not really the same thing as American insurance denying; they’re still able to seek care, just that the suggested treatment for burnout (pause from working) wouldn’t be economically comfortable if Försäkringskassan denies their sick-pay.

If the prompt is as long and unique as other copyrightable writing (which includes short works like poems) then why shouldn’t it be copyrightable?

Okay, so the prompt can be that. But we’re talking about the output, no? My hello-world source code is copyrighted, but the output “hello world” on your machine isn’t really, no?

Am I misunderstanding what pull cords are, or why not have it so the two strings can separate easily? The two strings in my blinds “snap” together so that it’s easy to raise/lower the blinds, but the strings separate very easily from each other if applying force in any other kind of way (would be impossible for a child to accidently hang themselves with it for example)

I think they meant that the document can look significantly different based on the software reading it? Whereas a published PDF is going to look basically the same (embedded fonts, etc)

Should, but laws outlawing toplessness are almost always upheld by the courts, unfortunately.

“Protecting the public sensibilities from the public display of areas of the body traditionally viewed as erogenous zones — including female, but not male, breasts — is an important government objective.”

We’d see some real trickle-down in that case.

I thought that’s where that guy from Pokémon came from?

We’re not your wife, man.

Google’s maps are decent and can also be downloaded to be offline…? But yeah, it seems like it’s a nice alternative, especially if you want to be free from Google’s grips.

Nah, but they’re both forms of intellectual property.

In this case, it seems like they decided Zynga was infringing on patent US7072849B1. They managed to convince the court that Zynga’s advertising methods were too similar to what was described in that patent. Which is bullshit, as software patents shouldn’t exist, but oh well.

Well, yeah, because they initiated the code to verify it was you who called them. Better than them asking your “security questions” or such. It’s a completely different situation if you got an incoming call who asks for that.

Not sure where they’re from, and the laws are tricky (plus there’s lots of loopholes - if the TV station is technically broadcast from another country, it doesn’t need to follow our laws?), but it seems to be similar in Sweden. And yeah, it’s usually found in normal stores as well as the alcohol monopoly… but I’ve never seen anyone buy it, nor is it even significantly cheaper.

For example: 33cl Mariestads Alkoholfri: 12.90 kr. 33cl Mariestads 5,3%: 15.70 kr.

Maybe some people drink beer for the taste, especially hipster beers, but I think otherwise the commercials don’t help. I’ve also noticed they’re especially common a small bit before the alcohol monopoly closes – of course it’s their intention that someone sees the “non-alcoholic” commercial at 6PM and will run to the monopoly before 7PM when it closes.

Back in my day, we walked for miles uphill in the snow to school, we rode the unprotected meatspin, broke all of our bones, and then we walked for miles uphill back home. Kids these days are so spoiled and pampered!!!
