It’s illegal to circumvent encryption measures designed to protect works protected by copyright (in the USA - other counties that have ratified the applicable WIPO treaties have similar legislation on the books.) Whether that should be illegal or not is a different question. But the law is pretty clear on it. “But…

In today’s big budget games, animators are not animating this scene. They’re taking motion capture data and cleaning it up for ingestion into the engine. That’s real busy work. So I think this stuff is more coming for some of the work done by motion capture performers, and mocap tech teams where you have a lot of…

I don’t think anyone should be surprised if they have even a passing familiarity with churches in the United States.

A campaign that the right have waged so successfully that you dismiss on sight people who use the word ironically. The terrorists have won.

I hope you don’t spend your entire life under the delusion that you are yourself because you decided to be that way. Because not only is it patently false, it’s exceedingly ungrateful.

Now that’s a zing I can get behind.

“full transparency” doesn’t excuse behavior that leverages power dynamics involving authority, fame, money, or age (or other imbalances in status)

Shipment is life

aim your rage at your therapist, who is paid to help you learn that well adjusted people don’t aim their rage at anybody
