  • I was with you until you tried to lecture people on what's bad for them or not. Yes people know. Lots of things are bad for you, they are adults.

    Did you know science has proven that being on social media is bad for you?

  • This is an example of where it didn't do nothing, it actually made things much worse.

    Dissenting online is, believe it or not, how people become aware of issues and know they're not alone in how they feel. It's a precursor to actual events, like we've seen.

  • Yes, I have.

    But how exactly does getting rid of IP laws since that exactly? Because that's what's being proposed.

  • This guy has no idea what nuance is.

    The Boxers lead a rebellion in China and failed horribly, accelerating the very thing they were trying to stop. Guess rebellings is bad too.

    What a bad faith argument.

  • Small companies have defend themselves from Apple. People make money from their inventions and writings. There are tons of examples. You're creating this idea of unbeatable huge corpos that isn't true. They don't always win, you can easily prove with with a 1 minute Google search.

    They also don't want it just because of AI, this would enable them to steal and mass produce any IP anyone makes. This includes physical inventions.

    Also copyright didn't exist for a long time and neither did the Internet or global trade. Times change. We went millennia without many things, it doesn't automatically make them wrong or bad. What a silly basis.

  • This is a bad faith argument.

    Forms of IP have existed for a long time. And back in your days you didn't have one company that could have global reach in second.

    You still ignore the fact that if I spend 5 years of my life writing a book, it could be taken away with no money to me. So people can no longer dedicate their lives to creating when they have bills to pay.

  • Yes, and I think this is how it should be looked at. It is a hyper focused and tailored search engine. It can provide info, but the "doing" not as well.

  • I like to think I'm smarter than at least most gorillas, and I would lose a fight to a bear in the woods. The bear is a car with claws and thick hide trying to kill you. It's faster and stronger than you. It also flights and kills to survive and eat often, gorillas do not.

  • I man that's a lot of assumptions. In that case, throw some cubs in there and the bear would fight to the death.

  • This is a horrible idea. Why would an author dedicate years of their life to a book only to make no money off of it. Why would I spend time and money prototyping a new invention only to not see a dime from it as a big company steals my idea.

    People need to eat and live. If you can't survive by creating, you do something else instead of creating. How can people not see this very simple concept?

    You could literally write the next Lord of the Rings and another company could print and sell the book, sell merch, and make a movie about it and you'd see 0 money. But no one would make movies any more because what's the point?

    All these indie games disrupting the gaming industry, gone. Game dev takes a lot of time and money, guess big companies will be the only ones who can afford to do it. The indie guy trying to sell his game for 5$ will be buried by a company that steals it and dumps a few hundred K into it to make a better version and the original creator is left with nothing.

    People think about getting an the stuff from companies for free and forget that big companies would benefit most with no protection to the little guy. There is a reason why the rich want to do this, honestly think about it.

  • You seem like a confused person in a park talking to no one lol

  • No one is assuming, you just have bad reading comprehension coupled with an ego that doesn't allow you to do the very thing you're asking. I'm guessing (because you refuse to have an actual conversation like some ego filled boomer) that you think you're cute and clever because "dying is a death sentence", but you seem to miss the part where people said the "penalty of murder" not the "cost of being murdered." Fuck you are dumb.

  • For the victim, not the murderer. Penalties are for criminals, not victims. Are you ok?

  • Oh boy, people are just out here being confidently incorrect. Either you think the whole world is the US, or you don't realize that the death penalty is outlawed in some states. Big dumb trying to act big smart.

  • You mean false equivalencies and reality are two different things?

  • Such a bad faith line that tries to down play the damage this did. Do better.

  • You say it like I had a choice to get a pension.

  • Oh, so my 401k losing money isn't real? Damn, that's a relief.
