This is just blatant corruption

So fucking hyped for this

Australian democracy vs the CIA round 2

Length or speed?

I mean surely if a toothbrush is too dirty to share it's too dirty to use

Shoutout to Satyendra Nath Bose who helped pioneer relativity as a theoretical physicist because he didn't want to study something useful that would benefit the British.

Forgot the add 1.78ml/g of anti nucleation dispersers during step 4.2 (only necessary at 1.01 atms follow as written for anything higher)

Literally undrinkable

God did loser it's written in the bible

Because everyone does it for that exact reason

My hyper coalition an-cap-com people's democratic uniparty dictatorship will save the west.

Another benefit to waiting for the next iteration of handhelds is that the price of current ones will probably drop

I am a solstice enjoyer. I want 16 hr days in summer and 16 hr nights in winter. 12-12 is basic and cringe. Fuck the fake ass seasons like autumn and spring and fuck the equator!

Patents are bad, how to solve-

Step 1. Abolish currency.

Yeah some of what I've said doesn't portray my arguments well. In trying to explain that IP law is a process that protects creatives and without it creative endeavours would be eroded. This is not a point of debate. Virtually every country has an IP law. IP law doesn't make it so people won't share their ideas, it makes it so people who do are rewarded.

Again, not a problem with IP law, a problem with corporate structure.

All of the jobs needed in society are not all of the jobs people would do if left to their own pursuits. Incentives are required.

Society doesn't run on good vibes my guy

Also. You don't think the logic holds up well? That is literally how it works and how most countries do it.

Okay tell me, are you more motivated by the innate human desire to contribute to society and discover the universe, or by the innate human desire to contribute to society, discover the universe and a paycheck that will give you material benefits such as free time and luxuries too?

Yes companies profited off of public sector work. Strong protections for what a person creates is exactly the kind of thing IP law is. Again, the problem is weak public institutions being eroded and misused by companies, not the public institutions themselves.

You want to talk about Cuba aye. Lol. Lmao even. Tell me. What's Cuba's patent law like. Go on. I'll let you google it.

It's not exclusive. You can meet everyones needs and then say, "hey if you make some cool fucking shit we'll give you a little extra." Why insist on people doing good solely because they feel like it. Why not push people to be better.

We know what people do when their needs are met, they're called retirees. They don't provide a net gain of almost anything btw. Yes people will pick up rubbish off a beach out of the goodness of their hearts. But the amount of litter collected from philanthropy is not greater than the amount made. And it's a rounding error when compared to the amount of rubbish managed by garbage collectors.

IP laws are good precisely because they encourage people to create and discover even if all their needs are met. They compliment the selfless and persuade the selfish.

Oh boy here we go. What is a corporation? What does it mean for corporations to not exist? How exactly does that even work in practice?

Yes creative scientist invent things spontaneously without expectation of reward. But no scientist will contribute as much as a well funded and motivated team with a clear goal. And I'm sure all the scientists love it when you tell them they won't be credited for their work and literally anyone will be able to take their idea and do whatever they want with it, that'll do so much to help foster humanity's innate desire to learn and be creative.

And it's about coercing people who won't act in good faith with the system into doing so. Most people would keep a secret to make money especially if their livelihood depended on it. Why force creatives to choose between sharing their works and profiting from them?

Private companies don't need intellectual property. A corporation will steal your creation and outcompete you in profiting from it if given the opportunity. Intellectual property laws are what stop them from doing so. Again, the system has been eroded and misused by companies but at its core it protects workers and their labour.
