Surely the US federal minimum wage would kick in then? Or does it not apply to overseas territories?

Trump wants to weaponise the FCC to go against social media companies who "ban free speech" or whatever, just like Elon complained about before buying Twitter, and like all other right wingers are so mad about. But if the FCC doesn't have any authority to regulate ISPs, why should it have authority to regulate social media companies. Not that the courts seem to care about precedent anymore, but that's the silver lining they are looking for.

Fork in your left hand, knife in your right. Yes, that is common European etiquette.

Maybe I'm showing my Europeannes, but don't most people eat with their left hand?

It's actually the exact opposite to what he says. In the US you can do almost anything you want with human remains, while in Europe it's much more restricted. In Denmark for example, you have to have the body/ashes buried in a licensed cemetery. You can't keep the ashes yourself, you can't bury them in your backyard, you can't spread them at some random special place (except for the sea in rare circumstances).

Website for pirating books. A godsend for me during university, where I saved 100s of dollars per semester, while getting the books in a digital format which I prefer.

How did you get an invite key? I would love to get one to try it out.

Foot-pound is not a unit of pressure, ignoring the fact that it's a stupid non-metric unit.
