@dcc@WisdomExplained@envelopeme Wow he has got to be the most dry and boring person whose timeline I tried to parse, and I rarely even use emoticons. :vomit:

>that protection needs to go on physical stuff too
For the most part it is. You can take a book for example and light it on fire right outside of the store if you want to and the courts (at least in the US) have affirmed this and many other rights regarding physical ownership. There was a time where the saying “ownership is 9/10ths of the law” meant something.
It’s all the mental gymnastics people have done to convince themselves that owning a property forever and penalizing those who attempt to share it that have caused a majority of this rot. People need to shake away this knee-jerk reaction to innocuous things like piracy and we all need to collectively come up with more common sense rules regarding this kind of thing.
I honestly wouldn’t mind getting rid of copyright law altogether myself.
>You can legally make a copy of your games and blu-rays or whatever, but the provider is also legally able to attempt to cuck you in any sort of ways
Current copyright law and anti-piracy measures were always retarded.
@Zerglingman@Soy_Magnus@Jens_Rasmussen@MK2boogaloo When did it go from “in reality you’ll never be anything more than you are” to “in fantasy you can’t be a women with huuuuuuge booba that jiggle all good”?
You bought it, you get a copy, you own it. The company cannot take it from you. You can share with friends. You don’t have to ask for permission to do anything with it once you’ve paid for and received it.
This entire problem rests almost exclusively on the shoulders of anti-piracy fags and copyright law.
@Suiseiseki >Unix is a trademark that a business can apply for if the OS in question uses any software originally derivative of the original Bell Labs or A&AT Unix and can pass a proprietary test suite.
Now you’re just being semantic. Don’t take the Stallman meme too far.
It was originally built from Unix (this is my understanding), uses an operating system (GNU?) which is based on Unix. It’s a derivative of Unix, no matter how far removed.
Just like how every programming language is ultimately assembly even if they are several abstractions away from it, since they all compile to assembly (or binary) in the end.
I really couldn’t care less about the minutiae though. I was just trying to be funny. :alexjonesbald:
I like to joke mostly. Sometimes I am serious. That is all.Want to follow? Please read carefully: No statuses within a few days? Blocked. Bot? Blocked.I've also got this thing called verbal diarrhea. It comes from my never-ending autism. Please be advised that if you follow me you'll need to deal with turbo-autism on a fairly regular basis.One last thing: I only follow those who post things I appreciate on the regular. Unless I am hurting for stuff on my feed. Nothing personal, but I get information overload at times and not following every rando helps keep that at bay to a degree.
