Enough of this defeatist “too little too late” bullshit. These comments are plagued with you fucks. We need EVERY little rock we can find to get stuck in their gears. We must move forward, so we can either accept defeat or beat back the second coming of Hitler. I don’t think anyone should be shamed for fighting for what’s right.
Credit no, but child support doesn’t sound so bad.
It took me a moment when I saw the pic to come to terms with the fact that, for as many times as I’ve seen kcal previously, I somehow never realized it was was short hand for kilocalories. 🤯
Ken M love obligates me to unbury you from downvotes.
Fortunately, very little value would be lost.
Oh wow - that’s something I was unaware of!
But then it is certainly the need for a jailbroken console that has Sony filing a DMCA. Sony has historically been ridiculously controlling and tight with their console software… I fortunately was pretty in the know and didn’t upgrade my PSP software beyond the version range for running exploits - but there were periods of months where no progress was ever made on future versions. It was a very long, hard fought cat and mouse game. And another example, mod chip makers for PS3/4/5 have been repeatedly taken to court and dismantled by Sony.
I’m saying that he is treating all of our existing laws as guidelines that you’ll have to sue him in order to reverse. Almost as if our laws matter only if you bring him to court to defend them.
Our congress is not balancing him. No formal objection or interference as far as I know, raising their own bills with horrifying implications in the meantime. But maybe it’s an optimistic view, I think maybe corporations and rights groups and foreign countries, and wronged individuals are going to be up his ass for four years. It’s the only way we can expect the judicial branch to check the lunacy.
“Fair Use” in media and on the internet is not a legal protection, it is a defense in court. Most cases never go to court over fair use, because the billion/trillion dollar company targeting you can afford to wait you out.
Our whole legal framework has degraded to this level, I fear. They would have to defend it I think court for it to matter - and what are the chances a college aged kid can afford to.
There are rights groups that used to be a help in these matters, but if everyone everywhere is under attack, they certainly don’t have the resources to deal with everything.
The subject of the photograph is meant to be the Great Wall of China, which the name Great Firewall of China is referencing. Now tech CEOs liked what ideas the dictatorship had and want an American version. Obama is present because I believe he narrated a wonders of the world documentary, and it was just a weird choice.
Bloodborne is a PS4 game and the mod used a PC emulator, did it not? That’ll be why right there.
citing the burdon of managing numerous pending cases.
It’s so easy to not have numerous pending cases against you in the first place. I want nothing more than for this dipshit to be stuck in court defending every one of his illegal actions taken the last 55 years. Couldn’t happen to a better person.
Yes, true, but irrelevant in this case.
I got the sense that was what you meant from the rest of your post, although I take it others did not get it based on down votes.
Fair question. On paper. On paper is what actually matters, long term… So long as the checks in balances in place aren’t all totally neutralized.
Biden did not “attack” TSMC, he developed a plan to bring chip Manufacturing to the US. Orange man’s attack, an actual economic attack, has no actual plan. These attacks will send industries into free fall and he’ll pull the trigger flippantly, right now (the moment when he thinks he has just an idea of his own), long before the market will be able to correct and without taking any steps to mitigate a disaster. Maybe reactive half measures later, but disaster will happen all the same.
I live in a at-will right to work state, so I understand that. But not every state is an at-will right to work state, and surely the way federal employees are treated is legislated differently and not on a state level. Do federal employees have zero protections?
I wouldn’t attribute to malice (on the part of China) what can be attributed to stupidity (Boeing taking short term gains at the cost of their entire brand). Capitalism ruins everything eventually.
I certainly haven’t read the Art of the Deal - can someone point me to the chapter where he explains the strategy of spreading misinformation about your counterparty, aggressively pressuring them to do something not in their best interest, and anger an entire continent of world leaders? Because it sure is sounding like he’ll get NOTHING and Europe will protect their own. The Felon is just racking up the wins.
