Fair enough, I personally try to be more optimistic and focus on the positives while acknowledging the problems. But as long as you aren’t deluded into thinking one nation holds a monopoly on negative aspects I can respect that.

That Fortnite case reached a settlement out of court (like most cases do).
Also Japanese copyright law is much more strict and tightly enforced than it is in the states.
I haven’t ment anyone who supports a post life of the author copyright protection yet. IMO ~20-30 years seems solid. Enough time to express your ideas and elaborate on them, but short enough where authors will be driven to make more than one IP. That’s also more inline with what it used to be.
It’s a bit misleading to only mention the federal baseline many states have higher minimums.
I currently live in one without a higher minimum wage and McDonald’s starting pay is $16, much more than it’s probably politically feasible to raise the federal minimum wage. $16 isn’t much but it’s a lot more than $7.25.
Probably the most unique thing is a Garmin watch w/ a built in flashlight. Which as someone not willing to carry an actual flashlight because I know I’ll never both to take it out of my pocket 90% when I need it I find very useful. More smart watches should pick up the feature.
Sharing things you find useful in your everyday life so that others might enjoy them or recommend things that would better suit your needs.
Weighing only the bad you’ll find no where on Earth is good.
Unfortunately/fortunately works of fiction aren’t binding on geopolitics. (Depending on the fiction)
Elected judges just make the dangers of populist factions like fascist even worse. That’d be a neat sighted decision.
Judges are meant to represent the people. They are meant to represent the laws enacted by them.
Steam allows games that let people role play being a pervert on a Japanese train. I’m not sure they’ll take action on this.
The British anti smuggling operations were largely ineffective before and during the war. Dutch tea wasn’t particularly uncommon. Of the rich smugglers of Boston the most notable was John Hancock, who by all accounts was quite philanthropic with his wealth.
Really good write up summary of the event for anyone interested. There’s also an audio version of it.

I like most of the changes he did but he really should have kept the original with this one.
America didn’t really win either war but got independence
We call that winning when it comes to wars of independence.

Fun entomology fact: The modern understanding of the word is directly connected to the people of that continent. But for the success of the American revolution, you might be deeply offended to be called patriotic.
The overturn of Chevron is only significant in that courts, particularly lower appeals courts, won’t be forced to accept agency interpretations on law. They still can if that’s the better of the two. It’s a big development in APA law but it is just on how laws get reviewed when contested.
Having not looked into the drug scheduling system much I can’t say for certain on that particular topic. But I wouldn’t be shocked if something like an interpretation on paraphernalia by the DEA got shot down.
If you want some good from the Loper Bright case keep in mind that it limits new presidents from coming in and appointing biased ‘experts’ to agencies to create new interpretation of law to aid their causes. This is a double edged sword. But I think with time we willl benefit from the end of the practice and we will settle in to a more stable set of administrative rulings that doesn’t shift every 4 years.
They considered themselves to be Englishmen, and have the rights of one, even after the Battle of Bunker Hill for some time. Also you’re thinking of Sam Adams, who was a brewer. But Franklin is pretty much dead on the money. Didn’t even wear a wig just showed up all slovenly and slayed.
The blade was inside a sheath and could be released from the sheath with the press of a button.
And approached could simply be he was intent on walking past them on the sidewalk.
Brandish is a stretch nothing in that article noted an intent to intimidate others, it is simple possession of a tchotchke. Unless you count the author’s flavor text.
The most impressive thing is the cross discipline knowledge demonstrated. Wood working, damascening, engraving, and gunsmithing.
