So I have noticed that 12ft.io is having problem with newer articles. Anything posted in the last 3 or 4 days seems to not have been scraped by whatever they are using or however they are using it. I've also seen some people say that they've taken money from corporations to not scrape articles. Now I don't know if that is true, but I will do some research and get back to this shortly.

Thanks. I didn't know, and the original thought came from a post in this community right before I posted this. Thanks.

Also keep in mind that paying for news often leaves the poorer community without information. While yes, i agree that journalists should be compensated, news organisations have become profit seeking businesses since the 70s, and not, as they should be, places of information gathering for everyone.

A paywall prices poor people out of information. And things like this still help them.

The guardian should be lauded for their model yes, but that is one company. They can't write about everything.

Fines are literally only for poor people. They've done studies on it. Shit is crazy.

Those particular trees are trimmed yearly, but NEVER in the heart of summer. It can fuck up the trees. However, they deemed the trees "salvageable" which I mean, I guess...

Thanks for the links. I didn't have this information. Fuck...

Actually, America does have several whiskeys that cannot be cultivated anywhere else. Bourbon HAS to come from America, just as Scotch is from Scotland.
