what does that even mean? the whole point of the tech industry is for tech-literate people to work to provide products and services to the broadly tech-illiterate public. the goal of a tech product is to be used with as little tech-literacy as possible. why would you assume that someone is highly tech-literate just because they use the product of a tech company?

oh, yeah I didn't get that at all. good premise though, sounds like it woulda been funny

if I understand correctly, it's actually because she is. it explains that in order for a civil case to be under the jurisdiction of a federal court (and a civil case must be what she's attempting, since she doesn't cite any federal law to allege that the defendants have broken it), none of the plaintiffs can be citizens of the same state as any of the defendants. otherwise, presumably, it would fall under the jurisdiction of whichever state both parties are citizens of. so because both she and some gay people are Nebraskans, the case would have to be handled by a Nebraska state court, not a federal court

my favorite part is where they explain that for her to claim that this is under the jurisdiction of a federal court, she would have to prove that there are no gay people who are citizens of the state of Nebraska

to unambiguously say "unable to be locked" would be "nonlockable"

in my head it's Foghorn Leghorn

when reading The Silmarillion, it's important to remember that Finrod, the brother of Galadriel, is different from Fingon. Fingon is Finrod's cousin, and also the brother of Turgon. Fingon and Turgon's father is Fingolfin, who is the brother of Finarfin, who is Finrod's father. you'll have a hard time following the story if you don't keep all those straight

oh cool, more supervillains appropriating Tolkien

it probably produces dialog that sounds more like it was written by a human

they're called "psychopomps" btw

they're for storing cool rocks, obviously, and it's adults who are the fools for abandoning this wisdom
