It's not even just the US, that just happens to be where most of these companies register their copyrights, and therefore, where the "infringement" occurs. Many Western countries subscribe to some form of "contributory…
While I completely agree with the general hacker consensus that you should be able to do whatever you want with your hardware, up to and including buying and selling mod services, I cannot for the life of me understand…
What makes you think that and not that it's just an average auto-translate job from the author's native language (Korean)?
I'm curious, what was the bug that was so critical the publisher decided it was best to perform such a (what I assume was) costly operation post-distribution?
It can't be circular reasoning because it's not an attempt at reasoning. It's an incredibly common English phrase that means "The argument is independently bad on it's own merit", not an attempt to show a logical…
It's a bad argument because it's a bad argument. It also happens to be a bad argument from people who traditionally and historically have made similar bad arguments.
But that's not what's happening. They made a Gameboy game and now you're buying hamburgers. If you're doing a 'vote with your wallet' thing to try to convince them to make more retro games that at least makes sense,…
I don't think it's unreasonable anti-corporatism so much as it's a very rational cynicism about the psychological effect of marketing. They did something cool and now you want to give them money. Why is that?
>In the Western world, "modern women" want established older men to take care of them, or complete independence and hookups that they consider "empowering." Look inward
Totally bizarre that they invested a team of 50 in exploring entertainment in what was never more than an uninhabited collection of billboards and For Rent signs
>General worker apathy is endemic everywhere I go people seem aggravated I would dare to check my order and point out they didn't put in the ketchup i asked for, or the napkins, or whatever. Or when I dine in the tables…
The latter approach certainly hasn't worked either. Look at the rise of white fascism in America. It grew out of the free-speech open dialogue wild west internet (4chan, 8chan etc) and became so radical that it's racked…
If customs detains you with the intent of searching your electronics, they will almost certainly open your checked-in luggage and search that as well.
It's not unprecedented for a nation's military to become subservient to foreign interests. Look at what the military in Columbia did in the 20s under direction from The United Fruit Company:…
I used this to prototype algorithms for a polyrythmic midi sequencer I'm working on. It's really a dream to use. If only using midi on low end hardware was this easy.
Yep. I worked at a toys r us in high school, and can say that selling toys was a secondary priority. A sales associates main purpose was to sell extended warranties offered through some bullshit 3rd party. I don't know…
The analysis of the social construction of gender is not derived from "feelings." This technology is actually quite inconsistent with gender studies, which is why I find it quite baffling. Gender as an identity would…
How likely do you think it is that the settlement amount is less than the money made running this scam?
Well, one obvious solution there is to simply accept no compromise and vote the right and corporations completely out of power.
I think you mean authoritarian state. Fascism is a specific right wing thing.
Great, let's start by making bad usernames illegal and you can be the first to try out the program.
This would have the unintended consequence of poor people voluntarily going to prison as a means of payment. The social implications of this would be devistating. class stratification is already a major issue in the…
You're getting downvoted and told to "shut up" primarily because of your use of the word "sjw", because it's a dumb meaningless slur used to drag anybody with socially progressive values. It's not a criticism, it's just…
What? How does "a group concerned with social issues" translate to "unruly, malleable, intolerable, unprofessional mob" ?
Apparently they aren't that woke if they aren't aware of the systemic injustices that lead people to become homeless. But then again, most people aren't. Most people seem to dismiss homeless people as "lazy freeloaders…
