Every scam website ever made that pretends to be part of a known business copies that business's footer text, it's not remotely relevant in trying to judge whether a website is telling the truth or not about who owns it. (And in c

My point was that the HN submitter explicitly added 'Windows 11' to the title, (which is generally against HN guidelines, unless the original really isn't understandable) - that it wasn't written in the title of the Redd

It's not saying the violin IS "merely an analogy for how a double base works", just that a violin can be used as a simple analogy to somebody who understands how a violin works but doesn't know what a double bass is. Com

My bad, thanks for the correction! Gives me another reason I'll be happily sticking with my RM2 and not considering an upgrade, though not 100% sure which I'd choose if buying new now (probably still the older one).

It makes no difference in their battle against WP Engine, who would very quickly discover which lawyers they're going up against with or without this blog post. That line in the blog post is aimed at public perception, not WP Engine&#x

I agree that it is of course smart to choose a lawyer you think can win, it's the public statement about the lawyer's track record that seems crazy to me, not the hiring decision.
