All I see are some hands...? You need to clean your dirty mind!

Well, yeah, because they initiated the code to verify it was you who called them. Better than them asking your "security questions" or such. It's a completely different situation if you got an incoming call who asks for that.

There's nothing illegal about downloading streams, but if the purpose of your downloads is to get fraudulent royalties, then of course it's illegal as wire fraud under 18 U.S.C. § 1343.

but totally fine when so many other media companies do it?

Do other media companies create fake streams?

Fraud is the crime of obtaining money or property by deceiving people. He deceived streaming platforms, as he botted his songs in order to earn royalties.

The whole "AI" thing is irrelevant; it'd be the same situation if he manually produced all his music.

I'm not a rail expert, but I thought for some reason that rails without electricity would be too old/unmaintained to be allowed to serve passenger traffic, lol.

40 minutes? I would have imagined that everyone would hop off at the station, they'd then drive out to a parking junction, and then drive back the electric train to the station for people to load in again. Isn't it also very expensive to take the train (you're from the US I assume)? Not weird that no one wants to take it when it's in such bad situations :/

If you're already laying tracks, why not lay electricity as well?

Dogs don't care that much about covering their poop, they just do it as a way to mark their territory and such.

that the drain line that the hose is dumping into is partially clogged

That'd be my thought, or even that the hose isn't tightly pushed into the drain.

The spin-spin relaxation! I'm not a radiologist, but it's my understanding that T2 weighted images are the best way to see lesions. And it's believed that ketamine abuse gives brain lesions. I'd bet a couple bucks that his brain looks like Swiss cheese. (I'm not sure if I missed some reference or if the question was serious btw)

I have no doubts that he frequently does that, as well as other controlled substances. But it's okay for him to abuse drugs; he's rich and powerful after all! Though it would be interesting to see his head under an MRI with T2 and see how many Olney's lesions he has.

That guy: wow, these people are such suckers... keeping me employed for over 18 years despite not building better infra?

How much chaos is it gonna be for your company if he's hit by a bus?

I can't think of many examples where a postal letter will be so time-critical that it will make a big difference if it's delayed 1 day (or until Monday if delivery was on Thursday)?

But I agree, it shouldn't have to be like that. And how much paper-profit they make would probably be nothing compared to the benefits society gets (and thus benefits the country's economy regardless).
