Seth who now?

This is true. It’s infringement, and they’re different words for a reason.

But …

Infringement is against the law. The people doing this live in an environment in which what they’re doing is illegal. If they have philosophical opposition to intellectual “property” (that formulation is grossly dishonest) they can fight it. Or ignore it. Or whatever. But if they infringe while the laws are still there, they will have the current laws applied to them. (This is just common sense.)

And I said if you’re going to have the notion of intellectual property at all, it’s not the fourteen year old kid who downloads a Metallica album that should be jailed. It’s the motherfuckers literally walking off with the collected knowledge and creative output of humanity and walling it off behind their expensive product who should.

Wouldn’t that depend on the scale?

Steal $0.01 and prison is clearly ludicrous.

What about stealing $1,000,000,000?

I should translate it for Americans then: 🖕.

Thanks for the laugh. This brightened my day!

We also have people effectively indistinguishable from them which would make us invisible in the war of resistance, allowing operations deep behind enemy lines.

Keep in mind the USA couldn’t win a war with people who looked very different from them. Oh, wait. That doesn’t narrow it down very much at all. I mean I could be talking about Vietnam here. Or Somalia. Or Pakistan. Or Afghanistan. Or …

Whichever I meant, though, the USA has consistently shown its inability to hold territory even when “us vs. them” was pretty clear to establish. What chance do you think they’ll have when faced with people who look and talk just like them?

Wait, Russia and Israel just made a new defence deal? 'Cause Europe and Canada are no longer the USA’s allies. I thought that was made pretty damned clear on Canada’s side with the whole “elbows up” thing.

I’d rather see him continue increasing the dosages and frequency myself.

Like perhaps injecting 2g of ketamine daily and chasing that with a fifth of whisky.

A whole lot of that “Conservative Bible” project energy here. “Reality and truth are against me, so I’m going to rewrite it to make it match my stances!”

They haven’t come for us in Canada yet, and in fact are in the “finding out” phase of the lesson in why they shouldn’t.

Having a strict policy of never setting foot on US soil does wonders for not having to worry about Trump’s latest brain fart.

Some of us were educated back when school actually taught writing.

Don’t be a fucking putz.

Believe it. There’s a single community in the Lemmyverse that is “women only”. And it’s a fucking magnet for passing men who absolutely have to make sure they’re heard in this one single community when 99.44% of the other communities are so dominated by men that women participating is practically a unicorn.

Even the “leftists” of Lemmy can’t stand a women’s space. Lemmy is the manosphere!

What are men problems, huh? Like, dunno, expectation to always go after that false masculinity.

And you think we don’t have expectations foisted on us? Expectation to raise the children. Expectation to do the housework. All while conforming to standards of beauty that range from the uncomfortable to the literally lethal.

Compassionate fucking Buddha, there’s a reason why the manosphere is pointed at in disbelief and it’s right fucking here!

Fuck you.

I think someone is missing what “losers that can’t be laid” actually means.

Short answer: no.

Longer answer: Aw HELL no!

Came for the shade on slop, stayed for the burn on Boeing.

Google Maps has very spotty coverage where I live.

My goal is an even dozen.
