> Because Apple paid to produce that knowledge? It's good that people can spend a lot of time and money developing new knowledge and then for some period of time they get to exclusively reap the rewards of doing so.…
> What would be the point? Ideal scenario? Meta decides it's not worth operating in my country, geoblocks us, and pulls their apps from the app stores. I'm sympathetic to the people who get real value from meta…
The DMA designated gatekeepers seems to be pretty well-targeted as a real law that's currently on the books. It applies solely to Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, ByteDance, Meta and Microsoft.
> If you think these imaginary laws would only apply to Facebook and TikTok We can literally write "these laws apply only apply to Facebook and TikTok" into the laws. Or base it on sites that have advertising.…
The upside of well-crafted social media bans for kids under a certain age is that you can use them to apply financial pain to social media companies for failing to prevent kids from signing up.
Well, I'm not American, and the regulatory capture that you describe, and America's efforts to impose it on the world in order to benefit American corporations is detrimental to society at large. But even if copyright…
May work better in some countries than others; e.g. checking the book I'm currently reading that's published by Hachette, my local indie book store sells it for the same price as amazon.ca, (and I can easily order…
Yeah, I'm sure it does - libraries buy licenses to a specific number of books that can be lent out. I've got no insight into how the licenses my library has stack up against other libraries though.
> For the same reasons and in the same way, those ideas — that intellectual property — belong to the company. No, it's for fundamentally different reasons. Physical property rights exist to protect people. IP rights…
Most indie bookstores will happily order books for you from the publisher/distributor if they don't have them in stock.
I find that integration near-useless. Even obscure books (if available) tend to have a multi-month wait at my library. Since the wait times seem to be semi-random, it's basically impossible to queue up books in a way…
You could have strong property rights for physical goods while simultaneously having no intellectual property rights - there's nothing that makes the latter instrinsically follow from the former.
Notably, those questions aren't actually hypothetical.
I generally agree, but it seems darkly comical to be worried about gatekeeping antibiotics as a tick disease prophylactic when the vast majority of antibiotics are applied non-therapeutically to farm animals.
Networking isn’t my strong point, but my impression is that if you do this (e.g. with a Pi-hole) there isn’t a way to gracefully failover all your in-home devices to the second hop when your Pi-hole is down. In practice…
It’s better than mp3, and my car supports it from a usb stick.
That’s not historically uncommon though. Like the house I grew up in was a rural house built in ~1890 by the brothers who farmed the land. Of course it had the usual quirks of an old house, but it was well maintained…
The implication here is that “done with whatever” happens, rather than “start another thing” while the previous thing is still in progress.
Thankfully I’ve got admin access on my corporate laptop so disabled this nonsense.
In practice, performance will probably be better overall with a DNS that blocks ad servers.
The parent comment was partially about Canada's VHF Weatheradio service - that was comparatively much lower power - the average station power was somewhere around 200 watts ERP.
I guess depends on your definition of "crap". In practice, my city has some hills, and none of the half-dozen FM stations I listen to in my car come in without static in some places in the city. Whereas the single HD…
Alternately, we could have some regulation that says that if you license your content to anyone in a way that allows them to provide access with a "buy" button, the license automatically becomes perpetual and…
Yes? Or just call it a chatbot if you don't care about the implementation details.
> So the issue is that more northerly areas are getting much more variance in temperature and lacking long deep consistent cold periods. It impacts the population, but even a couple solid weeks of -20C weather doesn't…
