Um, but actual Irish-Americans love eating corned beef and cabbage on St. Patrick’s day. It’s racist to celebrate your heritage? Or just to try things from other people’s cultures?

India—it’s Veeba.

Libraries buy licenses to do so from the publishers, but that’s unrelated to what I said.

I’m saying the judge found that IA violated its own CDL, so even if its interpretation of the law was correct, the IA would still be liable.

Libraries do not make unlimited copies of books so everyone can check it out at the same time without wait. Obviously the EFF doesn’t want to admit its client did that because it destroys their case, but that’s what the judge found the IA stupidly did.

they are the folks bargaining for Gazans

Hamas’s sole goal is to bait Israel into killing as many Palestinians as possible so they can unite the Arab world via their mutual hatred for Jews. The only reason they’re even making a façade of negotiating is so headlines can make Israel look unreasonable for not accepting their one-sided deals.

I still feel a can is the easiest and least wasteful solution. You pour the grease in and put the can in the cupboard until next time. Unless you’re cooking bacon all the time, it takes a long time to fill up. You don’t need more than one or have to wait.

I’m not arguing it doesn’t make sense. I’m just stating the evidence shows the Mississippi isn’t trending lower despite how you explain why it is.

That’s not climate change; that’s just a precedented drought and media trying to cash on doomscrolling climate change. It’s done the exact same thing almost every year. Rain has always been somewhat random.

More it still exists because they were literally incapable of replacing it. They weren’t good quality; people just didn’t have any other options. I’m sure we can make our cars last just as long if we clamp the screws tighter and ensure no one can afford to buy a new car.

I’m pretty sure the Supremacy Clause would make it a very bad time for whoever is unconstitutionally trying to block federal agents from protecting the criminal-in-chief.

Unless you count all the aid from before Ukraine was even an independent country?

Columbus was already dead for over hundred years.

If you’re teaching history, that’s already provided for cuz you can paid for teaching. UBI would just enable the case of a person learning things without then teaching those things to others or doing anything of value with the knowledge.

My bad, that’s true. I guess it’s that private foundations are more limited in how much you can deduct. To qualify as a public charity, a foundation needs to get at least a third of its funding from the public and have other board members, so they can’t just be self-funded and self-directed. A private foundation still has to be for a qualified charitable purpose but only lets you deduct half as much of contributions.

Foundations aren’t deductible though. You have to give it away to an honest-to-God charity approved by the IRS for it to do anything. And even then, you can never get more money by donating it than you would just keeping the money.

Logitech doesn’t manufacture anything in America. They moved production from the US, Ireland, and Taiwan to China in 1994.

Yeah, they’re nothing fancy, but that’s their sole purpose. People aren’t carrying around spark plugs unless they’re car thieves.

Because they have special ceramic tools. Windows will always be incredibly easy for thieves to break with no effort, but they’re incredibly hard for people without specialized burglary tools to break.

Stocks are basically a percentage of ownership. The share price as a dollar amount is meaningless because it could be 1% of a company or 0.000000001%. The relevant number here is that Reddit is IPOing at a valuation of $5 billion (that stock buys a ¹⁄₁₅₀₀₀₀₀₀₀ interest), which all I can reply with is hahahahahahahaha
