[SD] Do I need a business license to sell shirts for my YouTube podcast?

I have a YouTube podcast and I've had shirts designed for the podcast. I sell them on a friend’s website where he does print-on-demand for several bands and podcasters. I put a link to his site with my shirts on it, and if I sell one through his site, I make a commission off that. Is this something I need a business license for or any other types of permits?

[SD] What specific laws and rights pertain to bail forfeiture, revocation, and recovery in the state of South Dakota?

I was arrested on a fugitive warrant (FOJ) in another state. I was asked to waive extradition, which I declined. I was then offered bail to appear on my own in the state where the charges were filed. I posted bail and was released by the asylum state. The conditions of my bail were that I must appear at all scheduled hearings until the matter is resolved. Upon release, I was given a document with these conditions — but I wasn’t given a specific court date to appear in the wanting state. I asked why, and was told that the wanting state didn’t provide a date — likely out of spite toward the asylum state for releasing me. So instead of saying “you must appear on such date,” the document says “you must appear on this matter in such state as soon as possible.” My question: What are the specific laws and rights surrounding bail forfeiture, revocation, and recovery in the state of South Dakota?
