Ohh, my bad. Y'all mean like "given notice", not like "disturbing the owner". I read that too fast.

Common law is still valid in every state in the US (except maybe Louisiana), although obviously statutory law usually overrides it. You're right that there's no federal common law since Erie v. Tompkins though.

And I agree with your analysis of that statute. That is interesting too, since my state, Illinois, does not require explicitly being forbidden by the owner. It's much more in line with the common law idea of trespassing as simply being going somewhere without authority, express or implied.

No, at least common law trespass definitely does not require any noticing. Can you show me any statutory form that does? Obviously crimes are hard to prosecute without witnesses, but very few crimes require someone to notice at the time for it to be a crime.

Edit: I read that too fast.

Yes, many of them committed the crime as well.

You obviously aren't legally guilty of it until you've been charged and convicted, but that doesn't mean you haven't actually done it in the meantime.

Trespassing is illegal, even if the law sometimes gives even law-breaking squatters extra rights in evictions.

No, obviously Hamas would not take a deal that is conditional upon [the UN?] removing them from power and holding elections.

Israel is preventing this because, in practice, most people don't want to die in a civil war. This would just lead to better-equipped terrorists killing even more Jews.

Why would that go better in Palestine than in Afghanistan where the people didn't fight the terrorists even after decades of training, arming, and attempted nation-building?

I'm pretty sure the Supremacy Clause would make it a very bad time for whoever is unconstitutionally trying to block federal agents from protecting the criminal-in-chief.

Columbus was already dead for over hundred years.

My bad, that's true. I guess it's that private foundations are more limited in how much you can deduct. To qualify as a public charity, a foundation needs to get at least a third of its funding from the public and have other board members, so they can't just be self-funded and self-directed. A private foundation still has to be for a qualified charitable purpose but only lets you deduct half as much of contributions.

Foundations aren't deductible though. You have to give it away to an honest-to-God charity approved by the IRS for it to do anything. And even then, you can never get more money by donating it than you would just keeping the money.

Logitech doesn't manufacture anything in America. They moved production from the US, Ireland, and Taiwan to China in 1994.

Yeah, they're nothing fancy, but that's their sole purpose. People aren't carrying around spark plugs unless they're car thieves.

Because they have special ceramic tools. Windows will always be incredibly easy for thieves to break with no effort, but they're incredibly hard for people without specialized burglary tools to break.

Stocks are basically a percentage of ownership. The share price as a dollar amount is meaningless because it could be 1% of a company or 0.000000001%. The relevant number here is that Reddit is IPOing at a valuation of $5 billion (that stock buys a ¹⁄₁₅₀₀₀₀₀₀₀ interest), which all I can reply with is hahahahahahahaha

It's very hard to have glass in single-stream recycling. Glass inevitably shatters and gets mixed with tiny bits of paper making it worse than new glass and really increases the work required for the whole recycling process. It's great to recycle in a dual-stream system, but if you can put your glass and paper in the same bin, it's about as difficult to recycle as plastic is.

And Milei didn't cause this. He was in office maybe a month at this point? And the poverty rate had already rapidly risen from 40% to 50% in the six months prior under Fernández.

Yeah, people love to look at who's in the White/Pink House and think everything since the day he took office was single-handedly caused by him.

You mean Peronism?
