The public domain allows free use of anything in it. It allows people to innovate and expand upon established knowledge without having to pay tribute to original creators or their estates.

Intellectual property was created as a compromise to get people to be more open with their works. It allowed artists and writers to create things without risking their creations copied and losing their livelihood. Similarly inventors were also encouraged to publish how they invented because it granted them a period of exclusive access to controlling that method. In the long term the public benefits by getting access to everything.

It still costs more if you have significant scraps as that product is essentially processed twice. Even a half cent of extra cost per thousand bars gets significant.

Wild boars are an invasive species, they don’t have natural predators.

It’s really not, boars can breed multiple times per year, have litters between 2 and 12, and can breed as early as 6 months old.

It takes lots of effort to keep a population stable, actually eliminating them is very difficult.

Many pre WWII guns that were broken or unwanted were scrapped in metal drives to support the war effort.

In modern times there are several ways they can get used.

• some will get cannibalized for parts by gunsmiths
• some get used for artwork.
• many are scrapped after gun buyback programs
• some are lost in trash or bodies of water both on purpose or accidentally

“you determine your own pay” is also a common MLM/pyramid scheme flag.

It depends on a lot of things.

• have you spent an entire day or even better a weekend together?
• are you ok with the loss of independence, alone time can be much more difficult after moving in.
• do you have room for their stuff?
• are you ok with rearranging your place, and potentially losing certain decorations or room functions?
• are you comfortable talking about how finances will be managed?
• do you have compatible diets and eating habits?

This is relative. The US is more open about it’s racism and it being bad. Most countries are super racist, it’s just different targets depending on the region.

This is based on the census bureau definition, which is much more inclusive than just large cities. 84/510 urban areas have a population greater than 500k. 198/510 have sub 100k population.

This feels too much like a post about how to get opioid prescriptions.

Even without the war on terror, Congress gave the president the power to wage war for two weeks however they are fit. Congress is supposed to be notified and they can approve more time, but it’s been violated multiple times with no consequences.

No one cares who the lead is in a good show. It’s been popular to blame racism/sexism for shitty shows for a while. It’s easy to find a couple tweets and turn a handful of assholes into the face of criticism.

It’s entirely possible that the database is pre SQL.

Only in extremely controlled areas like ports or mines are there no humans. Farm tractors are close when in the field.

The first one also ruined the series by going back to rebels vs empire for no reason.

Light moderation tends to not lead to good communities. You can try 4chan if you want light moderation. Otherwise you might need a better focus than general finance. FIRE is popular online. Wallstreetbets is irresponsible investing. There are pyramid communities.

Could they? Yes. Would they? Almost definitely not for most cases. There’s plenty of crimes they can hit you with if you happen to get on the government’s shit list. A month of active surveillance would give them evidence for a laundry list of felonies. Taking covert action to plant fake evidence is a level of risk that isn’t worth it for the average person. If you happen to be a state level threat that calculus can change.

The news doesn’t cover what happens at 2pm on a Saturday unless there’s multiple bodies.

I haven’t actually played any of the old monster hunters before world, but from what I understand they are far more clunky, and you tend to fight the game almost as much as the monsters.

These graphs are the best counter to games have cost $60 for a decade argument.
