I make them out of inexpensive wood scraps, so they end up looking rustic. Basically, they would be a prototype for someone with actual Woodworking skills. They all include a substitution cipher message and code wheel. They are usually si

I once worked in a hospital laundry. We were supposed to wear hazmat suits as ppe, but no one actually provided them, and honestly, we probably would not have worn them due to the heat. I doubt anyone working at a gas station would actual

This happens to me every time I release a new game. Some combination of zeitgeist and Baader-Meinhoff means that I will see basically the same thing released at basically the same time, usually a better implementation.

More expensive clothing can also be repaired, while fast fashion products/cheap versions of clothing often cannot be adequately mended.

In this case, the product category is the same. While I agree that Elder Scrolls and Scrolls are distinct, it is at least possibly infringing.

You can trademark a common word, but you are limited for the product categories in which you have a product in commerce. So, Apple Computers has no justification to pursue trademark claims for fruit farms. This story is notable, because it

Trademark holders only need to defend their trademark in the product categories they have registered for that trademark. So, obviously a beverage with the word "monster" would be infringing for the drink trademark, they likely sho

You could definitely use this to make a weak serial pad, right? You need the starting seed, the algorithm, and the current iteration count or the current output and the algorithm, and you can work out the next state. It is like Squirrel

I also have a low opinion of most of his movies and find that in reworking them, he has overworked them. My favorite remains THX-1138. Just bare bones and mostly quiet performances.
