I’m sure the terms of service you agreed to originally said they could be modified without express consent from the user.

The edges are sealed by some PB&J-making robot in a factory so the peanut butter and jelly doesn’t spill out which makes them great for eating on the go without making a mess. It would be tricky to do that by hand.

They should make the Prelude to Foundation with Hari and Dors.

I love the coat and the shirt is fine but the suspenders and clam diggers seem kind of weird. Looks like they're trying too hard to make the doctor seem quirky by dressing her like a clown.

There was a nice dichotomy between acting like a kid but appearing to be a serious adult. I’d prefer the doctor to act quirky but dress seriously. Otherwise it's just a goofy character.

Wow, tough crowd. I thought it was interesting for Slack anyway. I’ve wondered exactly how it works and whether it shows people I’m “typing” when I sometimes type half a message, leave and then come back to finish it later.

Exactly. I was actually pretty indifferent on all the companies taking away the discounts (I suppose it might marginally reduce NRA membership since it can be advertised as a perk) but actually lying about it is pretty sleazy.

My guess is that it’s not so much Kikkoman versus other brands of soy sauce but using soy sauce at all and Kikkoman has around 60% of the US home use market and is not a budget variety. I hypothesize that people using soy sauce are likely to be more worldly and perhaps wealthier.

That’s not how the law works. There is no magic word that causes Facebook to owe you money for your content. You agree when you sign up that they can “publish” your content (in the legal sense of the word) without compensation.

Not at all. Publisher has different meanings in different areas of the law (the definition you linked related to libel is not the same definition as used in other contexts) and the definitions do not necessarily correspond to publisher in the media outlet sense of the word which is how Facebook was using it in the

I think the point of the article is that the author (and The Guardian) think they’ve caught Facebook in some sort of lie by claiming to legally be a “publisher” while also denying they’re a publisher in the sense of being like a media outlet that produces its own content. I’m saying you can be a “publisher” for legal

Those are two different things and it’s not just about copyrighted material. You can act as apublisher” and still not be liable for things that users post.

There’s a difference between the legal notion of a publisher and the colloquial meaning of the word. If I run an online community bulletin board where other people post things but I never post anything myself I may legally be a publisher because I’m technically publishing the content that people provide. But I’m not a

I don’t know if he got played. Trump is not an idiot and as someone who is incredibly dishonest, I’m sure he expected a good chance that Kim doesn’t abide by his promises (and if he didn’t, there were probably a ton of people telling him that anyway). There’s not a ton of downside for Trump here, he gets the photo-op

I just want to say as a liberal that I agree with your general proposition that it’s not good when people are refused service based on political beliefs.

Genius!

Genius!

0 and 3 and now my eyes are watering because I forgot to blink. :)

Abraham Lincoln: “Hey I’ve got a secret I need to tell you two”

Fair enough, but on the other hand, they should know better by now! :)
