I've seen signs on the NY subway 'si el tren si para entre las estaciones' (forgive the spelling errors) so 'el tren' is a word in at least that context.
I don't think the judge will dare, but it's within the court's power to appoint a special counsel to prosecute the case if the government brings a corrupt dismissal.
But few would dare. We aren't too many weeks away from the first political assassinations.
It must have been a really long time ago. Nowadays, the publishers charge the author for open access (and often still behave in the way you observe, keeping the money.)
No, peak enshittification comes when streaming services start suing ESPN for republishing their schedules. (Cutting off their noses to spite their faces, since ESPN could only be sending them business, but the services see only another 'licensing opportunity'.)
Don't forget that for a time Boies was the lead attorney when Caldera/new-SCO was suing world+dog for supposed copyright and patent infringement in Linux, trying to revive USL's old 'mental contamination' theory.
Anyone else ever encounter the alphabet book, "Chicka Chicka Boom Boom?" A coconut tree figures prominently.
"A told B, and B told C,
I'll race you to the top of the coconut tree!"
My (Millennial) daughter loved this one as a toddler. I wonder if Harris could work it into her campaign somehow.
(Warning: pedantry ahead)
My approach: when writing in English, Champagne with a capital 'C' is the place, or the wine originating there. (Which includes wines not made by the méthode champenoise: Bouzy is a very nice Champagne that is still, not sparkling, and red, not white.) With a lower-case letter, 'champagne' in English tends to refer to any sparkling white wine, and has become generic through long usage.
When writing in French, proper nouns are capitalised but proper adjectives are not, but there's the vocabulary to describe wines properly. I wouldn't be tempted to write champagne when what I mean is vin blanc pétillant.Prosecco is made from a different variety of grape and is not actually that similar in taste to most Champagnes. At least it's a generic term, and was largely introduced because 'Asti' is denominazione di origine controllata.
I think the argument could be advanced that growing bhaat basmati anywhere but Bihar is cultural appropriation, but the rest of India committed that appropriation a very long time ago and so India-as-a-whole is a fine one to talk.
Part of the confusion is that there are two related ideas that are almost surely in the mind of whoever uses the phrase. He who reigns over the players has the power to rein them in. (He holds that power entirely regardless of whether the weather forecast portends rain.)
Also, traditionally, the zodiacal sign of Libra reigns over the reins. (Yet another homonym!)
Wow, were those Limmer boots or something?
I find that the hiking boots that I favor are good for about 600 miles. After that, either the midsoles have collapsed or the tread has worn to where I don't feel safe with the grip on the rock. (I do use ones with fairly sticky rubber, because I hike in technical terrain.) Even just getting out on the weekends means that I can kill a pair of boots in just one summer.
It's interesting that Trump offered Section 230 as a supposed defense for violating the gag order in his New York election interference case.
Justice Juan Merchan was having none of it, particularly when the prosecution pointed out that he changed the wording - and meaning - of the statement that he was reposting.
State legislators keep floating bills like this, in hopes that someday one of them will reach a Supreme Court with six Republican appointees, five of whom support policies resembling those of the Fascisti of the 1930's, and that some decision will issue that reinterprets away the First Amendment. I suspect that the decision will hinge on the fact that the 'last mile' of the Internet exploits the public right-of-way, and therefore the government might purportedly have a right to regulate the content that travels over it, much as it has a right to regulate the content that travels over the public airwaves. Because the corporations that own the Court really, really want to return to the model where freedom of the press (which, of course, belongs to the one who owns the printing press) is prohibitively expensive for the peasants, and we'll return to listening to the speech of our betters.
If the OnStar hardware is aboard, it wouldn't astonish me if it phones home about driver behaviour even when the driver has not subscribed to the service nor agreed to such data sharing.

Poe's Law gets harder and harder to apply.
Last sentence - I think you meant 'less than half their height and less than half their age.'

The Constitution. In Clause 8 of Section 8 Of Article I.
No, peak enshittification comes when streaming services start suing ESPN for republishing their schedules. (Cutting off their noses to spite their faces, since ESPN could only be sending them business, but the services see only another 'licensing opportunity'.)
Boies has been at this game for years!
Don't forget that for a time Boies was the lead attorney when Caldera/new-SCO was suing world+dog for supposed copyright and patent infringement in Linux, trying to revive USL's old 'mental contamination' theory.
Sorry, disconnected thread and mobile site doesn't let me edit or delete.
Objection: assumes facts not in evidence.
Falling out of a coconut tree

Quaified immunity isn't supposed to be absolute immunity.
It would take a Philadelphia lawyer to complain about those.
