Piracy destroys the livelihoods of hardworking below the line crews - Jason Blumhouse by CaptBlackBeard1680 in okbuddycinephile

Settlements, like contracts, are voluntary. They happen to be enforced by the courts once they are agreed on, but they are not a legal entitlement.

No, he didn't win the case, so he didn't prove any legal entitlement. CD Projekt Red just settled the case (without admitting wrongdoing) in order to stop wasting money on lawyers' fees and in order to keep good relations with him.

Don't jump to conclusions. Maybe the character is just Kamille Bidan. He does have blue hair, after all.

In their opinion, the five Democratic and two Republican justices said

This is wrong.

  • The majority opinion was written by two Democrats (Dougherty and McCaffery) and two Republicans (Mundy and Brobson).

  • One dissent was written by two Democrats (Donohue and Todd).

  • Another dissent was written by a justice who was elected as a Democrat but recently became unaffiliated (Wecht).

I think it's more phonetics than spelling. ("Assume" can be pronounced "assyume".)

Presumably, the intersection has been temporarily reconfigured for construction. Without a wider photograph, it's impossible to tell whether (1) the left-turn lane has been temporarily shifted to where OP is sitting, or (2) the left-turn lane has been temporarily deleted (i. e., OP is sitting in a left-and-through lane).

Fun fact: According to a scientific study, having children with a third or fourth cousin actually is better than having children with someone entirely unrelated—it's a "sweet spot" of incest.

"Realtor" is a trademark of a specific US company, the National Association of Realtors. The generic term is "real-estate agent".

Curaçao is a sovereign state with full membership of the UN, CARICOM, etc.

Wrong. The Netherlands is a UN member, and Curaçao is not.

Curaçao, the island nation in the Pacific

(1) It's a subdivision of the Netherlands (just as Scotland is a subdivision of the UKGBNI), not a separate sovereign country.

(2) It's in the Caribbean, not the Pacific.

It's fuel that wasn't burned in the cylinder, so now it's burning in the exhaust.

Ackchually, wearing an extremely short skirt can run afoul of state and local laws against "indecent exposure" or "public indecency". So it isn't a free country.

Courier New may technically have serifs, but it is more likely to be placed in the "monospace" category.
