If you set it up right you could capture some of the evaporated portions and turn it into brandy.

I'm actually kinda surprised that data centers aren't repurposing the heat to evaporate lithium brine

until their orders were obeyed, the court wouldn't hear any other business brought by the government

So that's kind of what's happening (very slowly)

The original law didn't have any teeth or punishments for failing to release everything by the deadline. However judges orders come with the threat of contempt, so if Acting AG blanche fails to produce the documents or a valid reason for redacting them he can be held in contempt. And this matters because the attorney general is required to approve things like Fisa warrant requests, media subpoenas, death penalty cases, official DOJ opinions.

Trump could fire him and appoint another, but they'd be hauled into court to face those same questions under that same threat of contempt.

but the Texas law means you have to locate the owner AND ask for detailed sales records to determine if a business makes more than 50% of its revenue on alcohol.

Kinda, but they're at the county/parish level

Cancelled after 1 season and ends on a cliffhanger. You have been warned. (It's really good though)

Well except the southern cross constellation in the 4 o'clock position from the NATO star. That's definitely southern hemisphere.

I'm kinda surprised nobody has tried to use trespass laws to force the issue.

Are you having some kind of wedding so you can marry the ketchups?

Lol worst case you can convert it to an ultrasonic parts cleaner

Yeah basically, but at a much higher frequency since it's ultrasound. Human hearing tops out at 20khz, and this would be close to 50khz
