Top EU Court Says There’s No Right To Online Anonymity, Because Copyright Is More Important
  • 5 years: pay what it costs now

    It doesn't cost anything to copyright something. You just automatically own the copyright to something you create.

    (This may vary outside the US; I'm not familiar with international copyright law.)

  • to those of you of either sex who wear thongs or strings, doesn't the back side get in direct contact with your anus?
  • "Thong" can mean a type of sandal, also known as flip-flops, but it's also the name of a type of underwear or swimsuit bottom that's basically a string in the back.

    I grew up calling flip flops "thongs", but as I got older, people were almost exclusively using that term for the underwear, so I switched terms to avoid confusion.

  • Why don't passanger airplanes come with parachutes for people?
  • It is a truth universally acknowledged that a medical intervention justified by observational data must be in want of verification through a randomised controlled trial.

    This was a great read. Thanks.

  • Would you drink breast milk if it was commercially available?
  • That depends on how you define breasts. From Wikipedia:

    The platypus' mammary glands lack teats, with milk released through pores in the skin. The milk pools in grooves on the mother's abdomen, allowing the young to lap it up.

  • Why do people hate TV shows like The Biggest Loser and My 600-lb Life?
  • Because eating less doesn't require any effort.

    Eating less takes a lot of effort for me because if I eat until I feel reasonably full, it's actually too much food, and I gain weight. If I'm maintaining my weight, then I'm constantly hungry. If I'm losing weight, I feel like I'm starving.

    I used to be pretty thin, even slightly underweight. Then I went on a medicine for a few months, and it completely ruined my appetite. I'm currently on a medicine for something unrelated that happens to curb my appetite, and it's the only reason I'm not severely overweight.
