It is not about ownership of copies it is about respect for significance. If I print a photograph of a member of your family I will own that print, can I then deface it in front of you and will you remain passive and unaffected.

This is a difficult thing because in theory burning books is not illegal, a person is allowed to buy a book and burn it. So making it illegal to burn this specific book sends signals of Islamification of the law but context is important here. This book means very much to Muslims, not just in the obvious religious way but personally, individuals will remember their grandfather teaching it to them when they were a child. This makes burning it very emotional, it is like someone burning a photograph of your mother outside your house just after she died. It is true that burning pictures is not illegal but the context here is emotive to the point of incitement. It is not Islamification to view this book as a special case, it is about honouring beliefs you do not share and respecting other people.

A noble act and good luck to it but I doubt these few water weak men trying to take over the world will even notice.

I think other than Chile the UK is the only country in the world that has privatised the water supply to its population allowing large private profits to be drawn off what is recognised as a basic human right. Even most of the USA has not allowed corporations to be parasitic on its people to that level, and it is a Labour government bought and paid for by business that is trying to avoid re-nationalisation and that allows the water regulation body to be comprised of ex-water executives.

Ask Lemmy is not the appropriate place to ask Lemmy about Lemmy specific enquiries the proper place is Ask Lemmy About Lemmy where you can ask Lemmy questions about Lemmy and they will be answered. Ask Lemmy will not answer anything you ask Ask Lemmy about Lemmy and will only answer what you ask Lemmy that is not about Lemmy so try to only ask Lemmy about Lemmy on Ask Lemmy about Lemmy and not ask on Ask Lemmy. Thanks.

Yes it is actually the ATTG string, we all have a good laugh about that one back in the creepy crawly labs.

No sorry I just made it up, I did play the original Resident Evil back when the world was young but nothing after and have not seen any of the films beyond them just being on in a room I happened in but some cultural reference may have seeped into my head when I wasn't on guard.

There was a supplementary paper that noted the AGGT gene string was being activated by this fungal process and led to giantism with some individuals reaching the size of dogs. Growth spurts of this sort in spiders studied were accompanied by hyperactivity due to respiratory problems and an insatiable hunger for flesh. Twelve specimens that seemed most prone to these symptoms are being flown to the Huugens Spider research labs in Baltimore for further study. Results are not expected to be immediate due to problems Baltimore is currently having with its security.

Forget altruism and kindness, even at its crudest level this money is not to save them it is to save us, unchecked diseases over there mutate and spread over here.

Whatever you think about this photographer there is no denying he got his ass in the grass.

Yes that is a good one, is the mental association in his head or under the deck because in his head it is under the deck but under the deck it is in his head.

'I shall become the thing I hate', Duke Nukem.

That's too good of an idea to be usable, the powers that don't want it would tell the nurses, construction workers and farmers their livelihoods were being undermined by slave labour.

You don't use a mop to clean up a stain, you mop up a spill which can then leave a stain. You have to scrub a stain and maybe use something like vinegar or baking soda.

Very minimal to cover basic admin and licensing, venue costs are low due to the under-deck siting. Accidentally setting up a Mental Association can be very rewarding.

Is there any accompanying physical sign, is your skin red or bumped before you start scratching? You may have just set up a mental association.

I have a still working updated 4a which I use for a second phone account I have because it is so pleasant to carry around. I bought it late in the 4a production cycle and I think it must therefore have a battery that is different in some way to that included with earlier models and that is the reason the update did not brick my phone. I think what happened here is Google knew of a flash bang fault in those batteries which touch on wood later ones did not have so sent a targeted update to hash those specific early devices for safety. The question is not did Google intentionally scupper those phones but when did it know about the fault. My guess is it discovered it during production and that is why later models are altered and now remain usable after the update. The upshot of that is Google had some idea they were faulty very early on but chose not to recall them then but instead only disable them very late in their life. This is just speculation of course, I could just have been lucky and Google could have just recently found some fault with aging batteries.

This is a workable method to deal with these four years, a clever leader deciding strategy suggested by very clever advisors can beat a strategy suggested by very clever advisors decided upon by an unclever leader.

I always thought oolitic limestone took the name from carbonate ooliths present in the rock and had no idea it was a locality.

Yes as with almost everything the ability to do a thing is just a function of how much you want to do it.
