I’m not endorsing piracy, but honestly, shit like this is a major reason as to why piracy still exists.

Can’t wait to hear how this is somehow Bernie’s fault

lol can’t this guy just be happy he is the richest person in the world?

Bethesda have shot themselves in the foot enough times trying to monetize or control mods that they have learned that anything less than full mod support for their games will cause revolt.

Maybe the hedge fund should try shopping the masters to Taylor.

This feels more like some misogyny at play. “The little girl won’t fight us!” The back catalog was a dead asset the minute Taylor said she was going to re-record them. The leverage she gained with the streaming services might have them promoting her new versions over the originals. That’s truly going to hit the bottom…

I work in finance and deal with private equity groups all the time. The fact that one would make a purchase of this magnitude without knowing conclusively that she wouldn’t re-record the same damn songs is mind-boggling. The amount of due diligence involved in selling a company to a private equity group is usually…

I have no feelings about Swift either way, but I loved the story from Imogen Heap (I think) about working with her. She was expecting a bubblegum star to show up and be like "write me songs, lol", but Swift was like "Here are extensive notes and lyrics, here are all the hooks I've already written, I'm already playing…

I’m not big on her music (can take it or leave it), but I do like her play on this.

The path to fame and super stardom is far more difficult without a major record label. Most record labels will not sign a new unknown artist without ownership rights over the music said artist releases under them. And once you sign it is very difficult to get out of contracts early (and if you do you still don’t own…

Not my music taste but I respect her work ethic.

Do you think its a standard American attitude that 60mph is a super fast road where everyone will die?

It clearly was NOT meant to be funny. I’m really, really fucking sick and tired of Republicans being treated with kid gloves because “it’s a joke”.

Do you have any examples of “death threats that members of the government threw at Trump” or are you just talking out of your ass?

Lol, remember that one time trump sycophants tried to overturn democracy and murder politicians they disliked? Crazy times. Oh but this is just a harmless little jest. Just super harmless, teehee.

Per capita? Or overall? Because if everyone is a cyclist, of course you’re going to have more crashes and deaths.

Oh lord. You sound like someone who has never had a car accident in their life, which, kudos, but man, you are unwittingly projecting your ignorance as moral or legal authority.

Any time there is an accident, there are regulations that help find the person ultimately at fault. Literally every single accident, as a…

I have ridden on route where cars zips by at 60-70 mph. But guess what, not only was I in the designated bike lane, but they also pass with a three feet buffer. Cars and cyclist can get along, its just a matter of mutual respect.

Every surface level road is a legal road for cyclists unless it’s specifically marked otherwise and you, as a driver, are the responsible party to avoid hitting them.
