Ironic that Claire (who I love) posts against cacio e pepe, which leads me to the comments (which on Skillet, I love), which leads me to Not Another Cooking Show (which I’ve watched for legitimately 10-15 hours since you posted this comment and now love), which leads me back to cacio e pepe (because I’m dating a…

There isn’t a single one of these recipes I’m not putting a fuckload of pecorino on.

Yeah that comment was obviously made by someone who doesn’t know much about (and definitely isn’t a customer of) Trader Joes.... 

It’s just not that simple though, no matter how many times people imply that the games being played are owned. NVIDIA isn’t just selling a virtual machine - they’re selling a service that specifically markets having certain games available and then provides digitally distributed copies of those games, games they have…

Legally, the party that was “skimming off the top” was NVIDIA the whole time. NVIDIA knew perfectly well it didn’t have a legal license to distribute those games and it clearly didn’t want to pay for that license even though it’s now charging customers for it. NVIDIA is profiting off the developer’s copyright without…

Because NVIDIA is charging for the use of the distribution copyright and making money off copyrights it doesn’t own and doesn’t have a license for. That’s why. Legally, it’s piracy. 

Copyright law is a complicated m’fer. The ULTRA short overly simplified answer is that the moment NVIDIA started streaming these games, they stepped into the distribution right of copyright—for which the end user, who thinks they “own” the game but really only owns a license to play it and make limited local copies to…

Yeah the issue is that muckraisers on the internet very rarely have any concept of what the legal meaningof “evidence” is. 

I’m glad I wasn’t the only one feeling awkward about that. Found a P100 respirator in the painting supplies too... 

reach out to even others in his own party.

This is crazy genius. Although I’m usually so impatient that I can’t imagine waiting another 10 minutes once my pizza got there for it to reheat... 

The biggest problem with Aldi is also it’s best feature. The constantly rotating selection of interesting items means you may fall in love with an item (I miss you, smoked mozzarella ravioli) and never see it again.

Oh so it’s not nothing huh.

Then turn it down if you’re so convinced it’s nothing. I’m sure the rest of the people making under $75k a year don’t think it’s nothing.

It gives you 2+ months of shelter with which to try and find work or make a plan. It’s not everything anyone could need. But the idea that it’s “fuck all” is asinine and absurd. For a lot of people who are living in lower wage situations it’s a substantial aid and it buys time to get through the crisis. Which is the…

I’m actually shocked Lindsay Graham has managed to even half identify a real issue. It’s actually an incredibly bad thing that unemployment insurance drops out when formerly-unemployed persons take low paying jobs, particularly part time jobs, because it keeps them from taking what work they can get. The answer, of…

As someone who also lives in a high-rent area, I fail to see how paying the rent for 2 1/2 months isn’t “doing shit.”

You have backed your way into the difference between the distribution right under copyright and the reproduction right. They’re different and licensed/regulated separately. But yes, this implicates distribution, which the “I bought it” license doesn’t allow for
