a victory for the plaintiff could be considered "a dangerous ruling for the spy cam industry and for Amazon," because "the court’s analysis could indicate that all surreptitious hook cameras are categorically illegal to sell." That could prevent completely legal uses of cameras designed to look like clothes hooks, Goldman wrote
Oh yeah, just all the perfectly ordinary and innocent reasons a person might want a hidden camera disguised as a towel hook. Like "in-home surveillance". Of the bathroom. Not for spying on people without their consent though. For... bathroom security? Got to make sure no one's sneaking in there while you're away, I guess?

Body wash is soap, isn't it? But yeah I use the same liquid soap I buy in three-litre canisters for everything except my hair and beard. (I have a dry scalp so I use tar shampoo.)

My wife got so mad the first time she used my tar shampoo. One tiny dollop for a huge foamy head of bubbles compared to her super special girl shampoos that needed half the bottle for coverage.

It's funny because liquid soap actually leaves far less residue than bar soap because it's already watered down, but people used to bar soap think the feeling of having a thin veneer of soap all over your body is what clean is supposed to feel like so they assume when it's missing they're still dirty.

Liquid soaps are made with potassium salts, which are inherently more soluble in water than the sodium salts of bar soaps.

Reichspogromnacht is not even a holiday but a day of rememberance. So I assume they had also planned to make a crispy promotion on the Volkstrauertag, the day of commemorating the victims of war and oppression.

They pulled their data from a calendar that includes official days of remembrance in whatever country, set up a bot for the German market, and let it ride until it became embarrassingly clear that nobody thought to check that maybe there might be holidays and observances that don't warrant a promotional fried chicken event.

Doing the bare minimum of research to make sure your advertising campaign isn't horrifically offensive in the target market seems like a no-brainer, but what do I know

Dr. Bronner is some good soap. Soap up your body with the peppermint soap and it feels like you've got your own tiny manservant fanning your skin.
