That island does not really solve that problem.
That island does not really solve that problem.
People quoting Quran as if it’s facts.
Will be interesting to see how China will takle that problem. Other countries didn’t find any solution besides immigration.
We just need AI consumers to go full centipede.
Not really, they are clearly spending money and resources to grab my attention and it’s not like the work is done by people who are profiting in the end anyway. Than again - I’m rather anti consume to begin with, so maybe people like me are not a valuable market to beginn with, which is fair.
We removed to much stuff there, you are absolutely right.
But they just get less money from me, because I remove all non organic ads. Would non organic ads be less annoying, they could sell more shit to me.
Being conservative is not a disability.
Like for real, you have all the money in the world and you know what I like and don’t, so why don’t tailor the ads to not annoy the fuck out of me?
Upvotes I guess?
If people are interested, it’s easy to find a case by case solution, which fits best the given situation - but some people are just asholes or populist so others have to suffer.
Thanks for the sacrifice. Do you think it’s really funny to them or just jaded and bitter?
That’s a lot of words. So, what’s the answer to the question?
If you not interested in my opinion feel free to leave at any point.
If copying is an action open to everyone, what can a person create on a computer, that they could expect other people to pay them for? What could they make that doesn’t have equal value simply to copy, than to buy from its creator?
Quite simple because you value the works of others? If you want for example a specific art piece from a specific artist you commission it from that artist. We also don’t need to have a theoretical debate about it - since steam exist. You can have most games pirated or get them even cheaper (than on stem) from grey key market - but if one makes a convenient affordable (localized cost for example )distribution options, people will pay for things they use - because most people actually think that it’s the right thing to do (as long as they can afford it). No everyone is an asshole, most people are actually not.
I would love to talk to someone who really thinks this is funny - we would be like to aliens from different worlds.
I miss like one community and sort by controversial to enjoy a really nice shit show.
Dude are you really that dense? I say that digital goods are not the same as physical goods and the concept of ownership or theft which applies to physical goods does not apply in the same way to non physical goods. Humans created different frameworks to be able to make money and integrate non material goods into economy. But that does not change the nature of things: unlimited number of people can have the same thought at the same time in different physical locations - that is not possible with physical objects; if someone copies an digital objects it’s still there for others to use, not so much if someone steals an objects.
If we are talking about copyright infringement, sure - but don’t equate copyright infringement to theft. And we can talk about use of immaterial goods, but no-one really owns them. Again - you can not own an idea, even if you create a legal framework that pretends that it’s possible - at any given time at any given place someone can come up with the same idea even as complex as say - periodic system of elements.
What ever they can find someone to pay for. I my self pay or use legally free software for my work. I just do t think that if someone pirates a copy of adobe cs it’s equivalent to theft of a physical good. Completely ok in my book for private use a bit shady for commercial use - but adobe subscription model is shady in my book anyway.
Nope, that’s not what I’m saying. I just make a difference between copying, stealing, physical goods, digital goods and immaterial things. They are not the same.
Easy examples: original and copy does not really apply to digital works or two people on opposite sides of world can have the same thought but not have the same physical object at the same time, etc.
Pretty sure it was Marvel or something.
Some are and some aren’t. Like a lot of folks on here are here because reddit went to shit.
