It’s no illegal in the sense that the airline can’t put you in jail. On the other hand, it’s also not illegal for the airline to cancel the rest of your ticket (leaving you stranded) and choose never to do business with you every again.

But someone recently said he revived the NFT market single-handedly, with people making a bigly 1000% return!
“anyone who tried to harm the robot would be identified and arrested.”
But what if you sneak up and dress it like a Dalek, maybe with a speaker that yells out, “IT IS THE DOCTOR! EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE!” That cannot possibly be a crime.
Besides the earthquake, there was also a literal rain of fire across the planet, like a blast furnace, that likely killed everything that wasn’t underground or underwater.
Instead of drilling a hole, another way to do it is to slam an asteroid on the other side of the planet.

The loophole seems to be having an app pinned to the screen (I’ve never done this, but it presumably keeps the phone from locking) while requiring you to have an unlocked phone to use NFC payments. This doesn’t seem to be a common scenario (I can imagine doing this in some sort of kiosk mode, or giving the phone to a kid and locking the app so he can’t wander around).
Maybe all his companies are like this, it’s just the first one that’s been so public and shown his true colours.
I’m not going to look for it now, but there was a Twitter thread from last year that kind of talks about this.
Basically, SpaceX and Tesla are companies that grew up with Elon as an early investor, and have learned early on how to contain him. They institutionally have firewalls in place to keep him from wrecking the real work they’re doing, like dedicated Musk-handlers that slow walk his bad ideas until he changes his mind a few days later.
Twitter basically had none of those institutional firewalls, and could not container him with company culture.
Meanwhile, you have the Elon fanboys still pretending Twitter is doing better than it ever has.

Well, it is, if you’re a Nazi.
To be fair, those are Mission Impossible chase scenes really disrupt traffic.
Making the pee more expensive, yes.
As a former sysadmin who hopped around to different machines to do stuff, I would hate it when I had to type on some developers’ computers, because they had set it up as Dvorak (vi on Dvorak is a special hell). Yes, it’s a more efficient keyboard as long as that’s the only machine you’re on. If you have to use different machines where most of the users are on QWERTY, you just use QWERTY.
Should that not be properly, “Oi, cunt!” ?
We can call everyone “Colonel”, a la Col. Sanders.
But how do you keep the ice cream cake from melting over that time?
IIRC, the Soviets placed their primary artillery school and tank factories in Ukraine. As a percentage of the USSR’s military base, the Ukrainians were well above average.
On the other hand, the Simpsons did a not-so-funny-now with this:
Remember that the USSR included not just Russians but Ukrainians.
Eh, I’m pretty American, but I think I started the post with this image of what a “soccer-like” game would look like if hands could be used and the ball size was a baseball (i.e., the size of a rock you’d throw at an animal to get it run as part of hunting), and then think of deviations/restrictions to that. Yeah, basketballs are perfect for dribbling, etc., but unwieldly for what I had in mind. As to football, you’re right: it’s good for passing. For some reason, my mental image had players with mitts on, which wouldn’t work well with footballs.
Artificial constraints to make the sport more interesting:
Basketball: you have to bounce it. Plus, the ball is unwieldy
Football (non-US): no hands!
Football (US): it’s a weird shape, and you can’t fall down or drop it
Ultimate: no ball, flying saucer
Lacrosse: small ball, but you have to use sticks
Additionally, I just realized that you’re flying internationally. There might be weird passport/visa issues. I’m glad you’ve decided not to try it.
