IP strikes again lol

holy shit lmao. care to make any more of a reach? I’m not arguing that IP laws don’t apply, I’m arguing they are immoral, ahistorical, and against the benefit of humankind.

Copying data is not stealing, it is re-appropriation of our history, culture, and learning.

For all intents and purpose, yes, historical media should be treated as public domain and I encourage everyone to do so safely.

Just because it is enforced, or that you can have bad things happen if you ignore it, doesn’t make it a moral or just law, and I am arguing you should circumvent them safely whenever possible.

No, its just pretty basic moral reasoning. Just there are laws in Texas that ban sodomy (homosexuality), doesn’t mean that you should treat them as if they have any bearing on your life, morally speaking.

Just because you can get in legal trouble, doesn’t mean the legal ruling is just or that it is something we should follow. Break IP law as long as you can get away with it.

Disagree. All historical media is public domain, even if the companies claiming it don’t agree.

This is why emulation, and violating IP law as often as possible, is essential to preserve our history.

I think I’m just sick of MTG being driven by attempts to be the next esport(?) and just really appreciate goofyass Friday kitchen table games

art bad, mechanics fun!

I fell off of Valorant, how is the current meta? Do good aimers get rewarded or can they be shut down by a good utility user?

so it’s all an incredibly stupid game of calvinball, got it

yes and yes

That’s a shame. They weren’t careful enough about it. Should release open source tools without profiting and rely on software solutions rather then circumvention devices. They seem pretty arrogant and profit seeking, which makes them nearly as bad as Nintendo.

when he is right hes right

because it means perfect. its not an abbreviation.

pirate GTA:SA, mod it, play it on an unlocked Oculus.

those charities are already dens of graft and money laundering. I would rather not encourage them further.

who asked for thoughtful and well-shot cinematic masterpieces, you ask...?
