Taking words out of sentences and trying to define them piece by piece rarely makes sense. For example, you forgot the "intended to" part. Especially taking terms about a military operation and appling regular dictionary definiti

This is wrong. It was a helicopter evac. I guarantee you 100% at some point they intended to, and did control, the roof of a building or an area of land for some length of time in order to perform the helicopter evac. I bet they even said

Lawyer here - i'm sure the TOS says they can do what they want, and most of the fight will be over the validity of that TOS/etc. Ignoring that for a second, most of these comments miss the point - they are arguing over control of

Thanks - it is truly and greatly appreciated :) I wonder if this was the LOL[1] days - looking back on it, it's hard to believe how much people outside the org cared about the name, and us trying to not take ourselves too seriously. [1

I was never a fan of 3d printers, but now own 2 fdm printers that I'm quite happy with. One is an industrial nylon printer, one a prosumer printer (h2c) for everything else (the nylon printer is much faster than the h2c, printing cf ny

FWIW - mupdf is simply not fast. I've done lots of pdf indexing apps, and mupdf is by far the slowest and least able to open valid pdfs when it came to text extraction. It also takes tons of memory. a better speed comparison would e

This savings is mostly for lawyers, since almost any of these cases would be taken on contingency. You are not paying up front. It therefore mostly affects case valuation

Lawyer here - A bunch of things: 1. You are all probably talking past each other - I expect the original question of legality was about criminal, and not civil, law. 2. I'm sure they did not view or sign the TOS to access this. You ca

Matt Stoller is often just trivially wrong. Like his arguments, and often "facts", rarely survive any sort of even mild scrutiny. At one point i wrote a detailed point-by-point rebuttal of where either his facts or his arguments

They deliberately label the not food safe ones as "not food safe" and "not a wood finish". They have to. So if you are using that as a wood finish, you get what you get? Also most of it is still food safe when cured any

Depends wildly on the finish. For boiling, i just wouldn't worry. Most of the toxic fumes/etc come from breaking molecular bonds. There is a minimum temperature, and below that temperature, it just doesn't really occur. If

It's not a terrible assumption - it's a requirement to sell a wood finish in the US/Europe. Under temperature, sure, they differ a bunch. But in terms of food prep, no, they are all non-toxic and edible once cured.
