How does this article show it was a valid defence? They withdrew, as they knew it clearly wasnt going to work for them, so im not sure what your point is…

I’ll eat my hat if that turns out to be a working defence for Disney, so as a reason to pirate, it’s pretty feeble.
Duh?
Hardly. Hollywood is breaking box office records every other month, and the pirating community is very, very small compared to the larger population. Have you looked at video game prices lately? Movie ticket prices? Theyre out of control, seemingly not bothered by piracy in the slightest. Studio lawyers are going after piracy because they have nothing else better to do then pursue every point of revenue increase they possibly can, including going after the small fish.
But you forgot the biggest reason…It’s free.
The large majority of people who pirate couldn’t give a shit about “digital media preservation”. Sure, people all have their own reasons, but to the other commentors point, most people are gonna delete shit right after they listen/play/watch it. Storage space is expensive.
Totally agree. The self aggrandizing, “hero of digital media preservation” thing is getting a bit ridiculous.
No luck today i guess, haha, tried that code and it seems its been used as well. Appreciate you trying though :)
Damn, i thought I was quick, lol
More like bullshit tasks
So frustrating seeing this shit. I simply dont understand how this type of language is allowed to be present in T&Cs.
If we take a cue from dark matter, they could just not interact with the EM spectrum but still have mass
Love this
Yet a cop in the US can legally forcibly use your finger to unlock your phone to go through it, makes no sense.
Just make enough money selling the diamonds to buy co2 credits, now the footprint is zero! /s
Oh, I do the same for other things and didnt mean to imply you should do anything differently, everyone has their “line”. I’m just saying maybe you dont have to throw out the baby with the bathwater. The Foo Fighters, particularly Dave Grohl, are some of the more humanitarian artists out there. Dave himself routinely puts on BBQs to feed the homeless. So considering your comment about actions having consequences, they’ve earned a little bit of wiggle room in my eyes.
But regardless, I respect ypur opinion and enjoy your weekend!
Oh, dont get me wrong, most anyone hoarding that much wealth is an asshole by default, but theres a lot worse out there than those guys. Hell, just this year Dave BBQed for 24hrs to feed the homeless, and has done many such events over the years.
Obviously it’s entirely your prerogative what artists to support, but I’m having a hard time understanding how the Fighters of the Foo accepting money from rich douches changes how you feel about them. Now, if they took an Amazon record deal and wrote a bunch of garbage jingles or something, then yeah, id bail on em too. But in this case, I don’t hink theyve done anything they havent done 1000x before; Played on a stage for a few hours, shook some hands, took some photos, and went home with some extra zeroes in their bank account.
What harm are they doing though? They’re being paid to do a private concert, not donating to their super PAC. It goes without saying that lavish spending on executives when people are being laid off is super gross, but at the end of the day I dont think the band did anything worth being chastised for.
Certainly, but with its “lifelike” movement I couldn’t help but have a visceral response to seeing it’s knee blow out. Not something I anticipated watching a fancy hunk of metal hop around.
Ah, the old faithful, “legally binding until you spend a million dollars proving that it’s not” strategy. Classic.
Watching this robot land weird and shoot hydraulic fluid out of its knees makes me physically uncomfortable, but I gotta say it’s pretty neat how similar the “panic motions” to regain its balance are to human attempts to regain balance.
Am i the only one who just presses the windows button and types the setting thry want? I havent looked at control panel forever…
