Fingers are not meant to have good strength or dexterity that direction. It would be very tiring, difficult and I'd assume would be easy to end up with RSI issues. Not to mention it's a bit hard to imagine what the device would lo

Yeah, I think that's likely. I was trying to find info about this type of case on google, but without luck. I'm also thinking that the cork probably also degraded some over the years, just becoming weaker and needing less to dislo

The danger in that story is pretty off the charts. That could have _easily_ led to death, like maybe 1/100? That's something parents _should_ stop. It could have been redirected to safer versions, you can have a lot of fun with lo

The pressure under significant amounts of water is _way_ higher than in air, raises with depth. The small amount of air in the bottles must have started close to 1 atmosphere of pressure (approx normal for just out in the air), but over tim

Any project I've been involved in has its own explicit license, that allows such things (really allows much more, I don't touch anything closed source).

The WordPress trademark guides say explicitly that "WP" is allowed to be used by others. Several other parts of the wording the WP Engine uses are also explicitly allowed. So your whole first two paragraphs are mistaken.

Doesn't that just mean that Github should be mad at them? Doesn't seem obvious that it actually gives me a license to do anything.

Is the ToS a contract? Even if it is would the remedy to Winamp breaking it be modifying the license Winamp provides?

It's not clear that Github's ToS can do such a thing, is it? What gives them the right to overrule the license from Winamp to me?

Maybe. Nobody really knows what happens at the center. General relativity I believe says "yes", but nobody knows how true it is in the case of ~infinitely dense crap in an infinitely small spot. Usually "infinite" means

It's not a contradiction because the path of the light enters the black hole event horizon but does not come back out. All paths end at the ~center of the black hole. We don't really know what's there, at the so-called singul

Some of them would, some wouldn't, depends on where they were and how they were moving. This is a bit like asking why Jupiter isn't part of the Sun but other stuff is.

Turing also just comes off like a bit of an antisocial asshole, and those around him are kind of dimwitted fools. Neither of those seem accurate based on anything else I've read of that time. He's a movie trope instead of a charac

It is an enjoyable movie, but I'd caution that it's _quite_ innacurate both about the history in general and about Turing in particular. The book is much better about both.
