That is a poorly written sentence if I’ve ever seen one.

The beatings will continue until moral improves.
Ok, that is kind of clever.
Though I suppose even the dumbest user will chicken out once the terminal pops out.
IP law firms tried to get their cases into my country and they only got a 50% success rate on court so they stopped trying (cost benefit thing I suppose).
Also private trackers in my country do not allow the use of VPN (why do they care IDK, they say it is to have more control on who join), so there’s little point on getting a VPN for piracy here.
I don’t see the lemmy model failing. So, as others, I think is more of a solution in search for a problem.
In general I don’t see any reason to leave Lemmy right now.
Also I don’t think things will keep simple with that model. I see a lot of underlying complexities that the current formula does not have.
Maybe it would be a better to try that model on a fediverse area with less success than lemmy.
Peertube is really struggling for instance. Not really on the developer side of things but on the content creators. Maybe a coop of content creators for peertube could me something that is needed on the fediverse.
I agree with all those points.
I don’t know if adding exceptional cases to de equation adds to the argument or not. But there are many instances where the ones selling the product are not the ones that made it, and the ones that made it will never see a penny of what you paid for. This is true in old games/media, where rights were bought long ago by corporations and creators see nothing. Also true in any big production made by a big corporation with many workers. The workers who actually create the IP were paid by hour, while corporations and investors get to keep milking the product after creators had been paid.
This will invalidate any argument about creators getting compensated for their work. For those cases at least.
I’ve got the feeling that drift is an issue that is becoming more prevalent more and more.
I have controllers from ps1 and ps2 that work flawlessly nowadays. But the more current the controller the more probable it has stick drift.
I’m not all for conspiracies. But I wouldn’t be surprised if this is a lightning bulbs type of pact to introduce programmed obsolescence on a product that otherwise would just last forever without need to buy replacements.
You should trust information that has verificable independent source.
It’s not like in order not to like CIA you have to become a Taliban sympathizer.
As said by Taliban minister.
Take its veracity with a grain of salt.
I’m physically unable to make 8 in binary with my fingers.
My finger just refuses to go up by itself, it will just go up with its friends.
Not really.
Firstly they never said that they would turn him to the US. They said that they would turn him to a third country. And only if irrefutable evidence of his guilt were to be provided. And they said that the only would turn Bin Laden, not any other AlQaeda members.
Algo this happened after they US started the bombings. Before the US attacked the Talibans refused to even talk about it. And they would probably just tried to make time to start a truce until Bin Laden left the country.
So it was actually a fake proposal and only after their previous refusal started the bombings on Afghanistan.
I’m operating on the not so ignorant notion than the Taliban supported Al-Qaeda and its ways for decades, becoming a safe haven for Bin Laden and other terrorists.
They had no issues with terrorism and supported the use of terrorism against the infidels.
Being also targeted by other islamist terrorists doesn’t clean their history with support of international terrorism.
I mean that creators of a tool shouldn’t be liable for a crime committed with that tool. Unless the tool was purposely made for doing crimes.
Why rely on google which is going down on reliability so quickly.
What we need is a GOOD lemmy based search engine. Which I think is entirely possible with current lemmy implementation.
I did know about the uk proposal. Didn’t knew about the EU one. I will sign it today 🫡
Counteroffer. We eliminate copyright laws all together. For anyone and everyone.
Let move to a system in which we found the projects before their release. And once released they are available to everyone for free.
Also let’s make a system where everyone can work a basic work like 20-30 hours a week and get a living wage and the rest of the time we can just produce art of any kind of thing for free to anyone and we’ll already had our needs covered.
The butlerian jihad is missing the point here.
The fraud is using bots (not AI just plain python with selenium or something like that. Sorry) for making fake listeners.
AI here is just some coat to hide the fraud a little better, but nothing more.
What.
If he used python for creating the bots, should python creators go to jail?
Have you ever lived in a building block?
I don’t know in other countries. In Spain we have horizontal property law, that means that a building block is managed by all it’s members. Probably the same in other countries but IDK.
The thing is that it is a NIGHTMARE. We have not one, but two of the most famous spanish comedy shows are about how hellish building block communities are.
I know cases were old people have to walk stairs everyday because other members of the block refuse to put an elevator. I wouldn’t want to know what would happen if a few buildings could just choose not to put plumbing, or not to put traffic lights.
And if I’m correct the US equivalent would be this communities in the suburbs that make “law” that you cut your lawns at 3 inches tall exactly every sunday a 7:03 am, exactly. And become extremely anal to everyone complying to their ridiculous aesthetic ideas.
People in small communities can be incredibly shitty. I feel like bigger communities tend to grant more rights to people and ensure those rights are applied.
I just don’t believe in copyright, IP or having fences on human culture.
So even if they straight up put Pikachu in their game I think they have the moral right to do so. If they can make a good game with Pikachu in it, who is Nintendo to private humanity from that piece of culture?
My statement is about morality. What’s legal or not is another matter.
