@Drachs1978@JazzDeeApple You can specify in the contract actually. A shipment contract would have liability go to the buyer as soon as the item is with the carrier.
A delivery contract is what you describe and is what BestBuy uses I think.
400M users worldwide have had their TVs and phones hijacked by a company selling the private bandwidth to corporate customers who want to appear as normal users on internet.
You know, like being infected with a botnet, but this is "legal" because page 354 on your telly said so.
@Rasterblath@pansexualDBZfan It’s a public lake! And the access isn’t even private either! It’s restricted public access!
That boomer was out there checking permits because he’s a joyless narc.
Not really! The rules are actually quite opaque! Lake access there is controlled municipally by Hopkinton, but they must also obey the law when it comes to restricting lake access. The rule broken seems to be about not getting a permit, something only nonresidents have to do, and only for a portion of the summer around memorial day.
Theres a million ways for the city to have misinformed the public or misimplemented this permitting system in a way where these boys were entirely blameless.
And even then! The rule was about a permit where enforcement seems to end after 5:00 pm. Why was a random boomer going around checking for permits? Does he volunteer for fish and game in his retirement to go check fishing licenses? When he goes skiing, is he checking people for valid lift tickets?
@wittmer0313@NapoleonBonabot Hard to say, the rules in Mass. mostly allow the public to freely use lakes over the size of ten acres, and there is mandatory public access for these lakes. But! The public must use the public access (if there is any) and shouldn’t be using private access.
@yacinekhoualdi@justalexoki Its funny because there are 2 guys saying thats not how that works, but muscle hypertrophy is triggered by hormones that tell the body to start building muscle. Steroids are those hormones, and many of the side effects of steroids are the body being unable to adapt without them.
r/ukdrill is incredible. The users there have a Wiki-level knowledge of every gang in Britain and whenever anyone is murdered will write threads about everyone involved and their motivations. Go there after a stabbing and you get a completely different causal picture from the BBC
@sevensixfive@altntrance@mspringut I’m more curious to know how YOU think it works. Do you think each time a city builds a building, they do a poll to see what style people want?
@sevensixfive@mspringut I don’t think popular taste is a good argument here. I think popular taste affects architectural styles about as much as it affects things like modern art, which is to say, not much at all.
@0x49fa98 He might have been able to blow all of his presidential capital in abolishing the federal reserve; similar to Obama and ACA. Could be an interesting alternate history, even if that’s the only change.
@BetterScotus@TradVat2 State partially argued exactly that at oral argument, that as Natives ceded more sovereignity to the federal government, that eventually (and possibly at the time of the ICA), the 14th would be controlling and the ICA was superfluous.
I found that argument to be quite novel.
@LMSChairman@grapplerecon You’re doing the classic Catholic thing where you confuse rites and rituals with substance. Jesus himself could declare a loving couple married in his name and you would call it fornication because he didn’t use the approved rites.
Look up the history of the word “consummate”
@grapplerecon@LMSChairman A long time ago, a mommy and a daddy having a baby together, along with getting married, meant the same thing.
They both meant the man and woman, mommy and daddy, loved each other very much.
Nowadays, people think marriage and having a baby together mean something different.
Articles like this are meant to you blackpill because we are “chopping down trees in Yellowstone.” But don’t worry this is completely fake.
First, it’s meant to panic you about timber extraction when the National Forests were created in the 1890s for timber and watersheds. The Multiple Use mandate (a law passed in the 1960s) requires we manage American national forests for co-equal purposes: outdoor recreation, timber, grazing, watersheds, fish and wildlife. This means one “use” under the multiple use framework cannot, by law, preclude the others.
Timber harvest under multiple use should be a source of American pride in conservation. Multiple use is a uniquely American innovation that gives many different types of people and businesses real skin-in-the-game in public land conservation. The 2026 Forest Service is pretty great at balancing conservation science, outdoor recreation, and extraction based livelihoods.
Funny enough, despite what the article is trying to mislead you into thinking, the planned clearcut isn’t really even for timber, it’s mainly to remove dead down trees caused by insects/disease to prevent wildfire. The Biden era emergency declaration they’re using to speed this fire mitigation up is to prevent endless lawsuits from crazy NGOs that make management next to impossible.
The proposed Bear Palmer project is less than 1 percent of the 3 million acre Custer Gallatin National Forest. It’s a tiny, localized vegetation removal project. The type of clearcut proposed here *sounds* bad to people who know nothing of Mountain West forests, but it’s well within the Custer Gallatin’s own Biden-era 2022 management plan. Forest management plans are documents that take years of science, manager, and public input to establish a sustainable management strategy including vegetation and timber plans.
The management plan itself says a clearcut like this is the ideal path to regeneration for species like lodegpole pine because these trees are shade intolerant, meaning they need sunlight. So regeneration is best after what’s called a “stand replacing disturbance” or a clearcut.
Bear Palmer is a prioritized stand because there is a lot of deadfall due to insect issues or big wildfire risks. Beyond all that, no clearcut happens without an additional NEPA and special assessments of wildlife, old growth, listed species like griz, and so on, beyond the requirements of their own plan. You can read hundreds of pages of these assessments on their website today. Clearcutting is literally *the* preferred regeneration method for lodegpole to reduce wildfire risk and disease within the forest’s own plan and meet ecological objectives for regrowth!
It’s just crazy to me that supposedly environment focused publications can miss the mark so egregiously. Whose interests are served by making the American people think the Forest Service is bad at managing trees/wildlife?! It’s actually, in terms of its science and management plans, really good at that.
I was so astounded by how terrible this article was that I had to look into the author, who is an “award winning Bangladeshi journalist” who recently moved here to do a degree in journalism at the University of Montana. Maybe before writing an article so strangely out of touch with the way we manage national forests like the Custer Gallatin this guy should probably learn a little more about the American system?
Who funds the demoralization propaganda website Inside Climate News? Of course it’s the same opaque network of foundations (Ford, MacArthur, Rockefeller) pushing climate extremist degrowth nonsense everywhere else. Only in America do massive foundations push panic agitprop to undermine our own public land agencies/demoralize Americans about our national forest system written by people who got here 5 minutes ago.
