I open cans also, but im not
religious so it doesn't say much.
Oh, anyway, I go with the pesakim of R Shlomo Zalman/ shmiras Shabbos kehilchoso in hilchos Shabbos.
I believe that many are noheg to follow the shmiras Shabbos in hilchos Shabbos. Especially Israelis/Europeans.

Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

It's already been discussed. All TimT's horses and all TimT's men can't bring back this discussion, though...

I don't think many people said it was straight out assur, IIRC. Some said it was unethical, or it was a gray area halachicly.

The bearded people had turbans, though...

IIRC there were opinions that way (not mine). That's why I stated ALOR  (ask local rabbi)

Most of these things are explained by the rambam himself in many places.

They are discussed in many many reshonim and achronim.

There are also English books like this https://books.google.com/books?id=5gOehr6FT-4C&pg=PA128&lpg=PA128&dq=rambam+spirits&source=bl&ots=7otvNvx7im&sig=QszJY1w4uEQ_NjQ1D6rBHbwNAUY&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj5u6GQ09XMAhWHzIMKHU4VBkYQ6AEICjAA#v=onepage&q=rambam%20spirits&f=false

And meisalmans..

the rambam generally doesn't actually discuss it but merely mentions it benogea lehalacha. Rabbi meiselmans book- I began to read it but never really got on with it.
