How is it his right to interfere with the functionality of someone else's property?

To each their own!

So you think the punishment for being even remotely associated with the politicians doing that should carry the punishment of a slow and painful death? A lot of fundies don't even fucking vote. I think we need protections against their craziness enshrined in law and anyone directly interfering with someone else's autonomy should be arrested, but mass murder is fucking insane and you know it.

Isn't advocating for genocide a bit much?

Edit: apparently not. That's really disappointing.

There are 309 million possible ways to combine 6 letters. I would wager only a few million are even remotely pronounceable. The notion that someone can claim a bunch of those words and prevent other people from using them, even in unrelated areas, is completely absurd. There are over 8 billion people on this planet, words get reused. They should just fucking deal with it.

I'm not super convinced it actually reduces eye strain much. I like it at night because less blue light = less wakey wakey, but that's useless during the day.

Eh... Blue light filter reduces image quality. I definitely 100% use it at night, but I'm not sure what benefit there is to using it during the day, especially when 80% of the screen is black or some shade of dark gray most of the time anyway.

Jurisdiction't.

Hmm, interesting!

Like I said, Bungie isn't getting a dime from me.

That sounds awesome! Too bad I never played D1.

Piracy can only be considered to be depriving someone of some good if you can prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the pirate would have paid for access to the content had they not had a pirated copy available. Not only is this not true in the majority of cases, it's also completely impossible to prove in 99.9% of the cases where it is true.

I feel like I got scammed by Bungie with the shit they pulled with Destiny 2. I will never give them a single dime ever again. I loved that game and they completely ruined it.

Not a lawyer, but most of what you said is true, except:

then it’s not possible to copy that data without depriving the creator of its value.

We're talking about the theoretical value the creator might get if you decide to pay for something. If you never had any intention of paying to access something if you couldn't find a pirated copy, no value has been lost by the creator due to copying the data and therefore no harm has been done. The requirement for criminal liability should be that a harm has been inflicted by you beyond any reasonable doubt. Piracy as a deprivation of monetary value can not ever meet this requirement. Of course, the actual requirement is that you have committed a crime beyond reasonable doubt, so if corrupt legislators make piracy a crime, the justice system can obviously charge you with it despite it being victimless, hence the scam.

I hate that. Thanks for the response.

How can they prevent you from hosting unofficial events? What legal basis do they have for it?

And of course, the things they'll be looking for with this will be things that are settled with two bullets to the back of the head and a suicide ruling.

IT'S BAAAAAAAAAAACK!?!?!?

I took it to mean that too and thought it was saying that there was some update that was taking forever. We already got 4 though, so it wouldn't make any sense being posted lately.

I'll keep that in mind... If I'm ever well enough to leave the apartment again lol.
