Good explanation, thank you. It looks like fair use is a lot more limited than I had thought. And obviously not worth the risk for the average person to try and use as a defense.

Ah, thank you for that context, I didn’t see any mention of Patreon in the article.
I’m still stuck on him suggesting a submachine gun for police use, especially having also criticized submachine guns as promoting inaccuracy.
Not that this would save the average person from litigation hell, but does Nintendo actually have a legal leg to stand on? What would make a (free) mod any different from any other artistic expression?
Also assuming the mod creator didn’t do anything crazy like rip assets from an existing Pokémon game.
Sometimes I put stuff somewhere “safe”. Which means I’ll find it 2 years later.
Nomads from Cyberpunk 2020/2077 were not on my bingo card for this year.
What’s actually news worthy is that TSA managed to catch this. Their success rate is abysmal, so I’m sure this is a big confidence boost for them.
Hallucinations while half-asleep are a well known phenomenon, so it’s very possible.
If you’re trying to know for certain, that’s harder. You’ll have to consider a lot of things. Not all of them are likely, so how much digging you do is dependent on how concerned you are.
Do you live alone? I assume you do, or already asked the people you live with.
Are all your exterior doors and windows locked? Is anything missing or out of place? I think you’d have already noticed if you’d been robbed, but this is easy stuff to rule out.
Do you have functioning Carbon Monoxide detectors? Do you have sleep apnaea? CO can lead to memory loss, sleep apnaea can contribute to sleep paralysis.
Have you seen your door open while half asleep before? If this is recurring, you can do things like place hairs in the door that will fall if it opens.
Have you done a sleep study? This can help determine if your REM cycle is frequently disrupted and if you need something like a CPAP.
There may be a better way, but I use the option to extract the file to a new folder with the same name as the zip file.
The original design of that bench is an art piece protesting the commercialization of life (although it may have been implemented seriously in some place where they missed the point).
Ironically, I’d expect a person living on the street to have actual coins capable of operating the bench more often than most people.
The “recycling” in Soylent Green is due to global warming and overpopulation causing a bunch of food scarcity. It’s definitely prescient in that way, but also weird in the context of the diagram.
I would argue that this is worldnews in that (if I understand it correctly) this impacts foreign travelers too, even those simply making connecting flights.
As horrendous as this ruling is, I’m also pissed at the pro-forced birthers that are upset by this ruling. It’s so intellectually dishonest to object to this ruling when it uses the same justifications they use to oppose abortion.
These people pick issues to be passionate on but never actually put in the effort to research. And not just whether their position makes any sense, but what the downstream effects of the position would mean.
The politicians who write these anti-abortion laws are even more lazy. This is literally their job and they should have seen this coming. They could have put in exceptions for IVF from the get-go but they didn’t, because they are more interested in winning points than writing effective legislation.
