  • Why in the fuck is copyright protection longer than patent protection? I feel like both should be 10-20 years maximum, but if you have to full on invent something, then work out production, the get sales going, I can see an argument for 20 years. But just drawing a fucking mouse gets you life of creator plus years beyond that?

    I guess Disney isn’t waiting for competitors IP to hit public domain, but another type of company lobbying for longer patent terms might wind up with an own goal by locking themselves out of using some newly refined processes or something? It just seems really weird they haven’t been increased together.



  • So maybe should just get comfortable policy-wise with turning away passengers fucked in passengers at the gate.

    A two drink maximum doesn’t stop me from snorting a fistful of ket in the cab, getting 1-2 drinks after security, then going ballistic during the flight. Getting turned away at the gate because I’m obviously kholed does stop me though.

    The thing that works the best might cost Ryanair some money though, and we obviously can’t have that, won’t someone please think of the profits?







  • You’re not the moderator of the community, so the “These guidelines will be enforced on a know-it-when-I-see-it basis” bit isn’t applicable to you.

    I maintain that the live stream of a political rally doesn’t have a title, regardless of YouTube having a “Title” metadata field. As OP is directly linking to the primary source, the live-streamed rally, one could go as far as to argue that OP is the one reporting on this event to the community, in which case they aren’t editorializing they are just titling their own second-hand reporting on the event as they see fit.

    Ultimately neither of our opinions on this matter, and regardless of which one of us is “right” we are both being needlessly pedantic. If the post is breaking a rule a community moderator will moderate it.
