If you’ve seen IV, you’ve essentially seen it.

Ironically, your handle is pretty apt right here. Comparing tangible items that have a component cost associated with their physical existence (e.g., a car) with intangible items that can be replicated/reproduced for no cost (e.g., software) is creating a false equivalency. As many people have pointed out before, if…

“I would love a Ferrari, but you don’t see me busting down a show room window GTA style and taking one for a joyride.”

What if you could make a copy of the Ferrari for free?

I don’t endorse piracy, but your example isn’t exactly analogous to software piracy.

“YOU WOULDN’T DOWNLOAD A CAR”

If you’re trying to argue that most of the people who pirated it would’ve bought it if they had no other option, I’m calling bullshit.

If you’re a grown man, and you concern yourself with buying garments that have been worn by grown men who are not you, then you are a huge fucking nerd and you deserve whatever garbage you get tricked into buying.

There is currently no evidence that any creature down to about the complexity of crustaceans lacks the neurology necessary for consciousness, according to a consensus statement of leading researchers in the field - the Cambridge Declaration on Animal Consciousness.

Did you guys even watch the video? There was someone merging into the road at that exact moment. There was no opportunity for him to merge right without changing his rate of speed (cruise control).

his own damn fault. You want to be an aggressive sonofabitch on the road, you accept the risk. Hopefully he got a fairly sizable ticket to go along with his wrecked SUV.

I flash my brakes at them first 3 times, if they continue to tailgate I slow down until they go around. This is of course on 2 lane roads. On 4 lane roads I am in the right lane 99% of the time (unless passing). Looks like the guy got what was coming to him IMO.

100% endorsed. I’m a Sanders supporter, but this is the correct answer. Electing Obama didn’t End Racism or anything like that, but it is proof that getting involved in the system can work. You can get elected and you can make a difference once you do.

As a Latina also supporting Hillary: expect nothing but contempt from white commenters here. They know what’s better for us and they are baffled that we dare to think for themselves and have reasons to vote for Hillary. How can we? They know what is better and they don't agree. We must be ignorant!

I’m black and voting for Hillary. #SorrynotSorry. I don’t find this condescending at all. Why don’t you get in government IS the right answer. I’m so tired of all these whiny people running around complaining all the politicians are in someone’s pocket or are “UNAUTHENTIC” . GO BE A POLITICIAN Then. That’s an…

This this this. Posted about this in the comments of another article. There is been no trial, there has been no verdict. People need to stop using those words.

The Court is NOT on Dr. Luke’s “side.” The Judge merely applied the law to the facts. As an attorney one of the hardest things to deal with are bad facts. They are what they are and we do our best to construe them most favorably to our clients but ultimately Judges have no discretion to choose a “side” they like. It’s…

So they are finally admitting that the entire idea of the N52 (and the pointless events and soft reboots since) was just as terrible as any long term reader could have told them it was back in 2011. Hopefully they are serious about undoing some of the damage and they are not just using this as yet another excuse to…

I hate “free to play” games that nickel and dime you, but I have spent more on Marvel Heroes than any game other than World of Warcraft, because they earned it by being awesome. You can get everything for free by playing and earning in game currency at a reasonable rate, other than storage space and purely cosmetic…

I agree with you that Heath Ledger’s performance was exemplary in The Dark Knight, but he was a terrible Joker. He was a big messy psychopath whose end goal was just cruelty. That’s not the Joker at all! The Joker’s endgame is the big laugh, the guffaw, the Joke that puts aches in everyone’s sides and he accomplishes…

I actually didn’t think Ledger’s Joker was very good. Don’t get me wrong - Ledger gave a fantastic performance. It was incredible acting. The problem was, his/Nolan’s interpretation of the character didn’t do justice to the character imo. The Joker is defined in large part by his twisted humor (especially gags like…

I know people have a lot of love for the Nolan Batman films, but in my opinion they’re some of the worst. The Dark knight is a good film, but it’s mostly due to Heath Ledger’s performance. The rest of the film is clunky, ugly, poorly edited and poorly shot. The same goes for Nolan’s other two Batman films - they go…
