I would want to try to work something out, I really want a peek at that transformers folder.

eviction is a necessary legal remedy to keep rental housing affordable and available for responsible people.

There's more people then houses in the US, so not really. The necessary remedy is making sure everyone only has one.

Glad to have you back, congrats on the twins. Love the app, it's multi instance support is my favorite.

Would you say this about anyone else? Dogs? Cats? Anything at all?

What an odd comparison, given that pets are crated and put in (a warm/pressurized part of) the cargo bay. Is that better then hiding under a seat or the overhead bin? It seems about the same to me.

Why would the user be able to sue? Unless they thought their work was being infringed (in which case why they wouldn't send a dmca?) I don't see what possible standing they'd have.

And 7 years after the fact, how is your one time $40 purchase still paying to keep the servers running?

The company as a whole is profitable, and have been for at least the last few years. I'm on mobile so I'm not able to read their annual investor reports, but do they actually mention overwatch being a loss for the company on a premium model, or are you assuming that?

That's the power of buying in bulk my friend.

Does it seem odd to you that the devs would name their platform after a Nazi, when they are Marxists? That just strikes me as exceptionally odd, given everything I know about the two groups.

Some backup services charge less for shipping a hard drive then bandwidth, last I looked it was around 8tb to be cheaper (for the user) then restoring over the internet. So I'd guess it's around that mark, but I'm obviously not an expert.

Very interesting, thanks for this.

It's sad to me how many people don't recognize morbid obesity, or downplay being overweight in general because other people are also that size.

If you make a joke that risky, and they don't laugh/acknowledge it, you really shouldn't keep telling it. They either didn't get it (and probably won't with future tellings) or they didn't like it.
