But doesn't shareware refer to software that is distributed freely, playable (maybe with limitations on how far you can play into the game, or how long you can play it for free) but it's generally a proprietary game that is distributed through this model? I may not have a perfect grasp on the precise meaning of shareware.
I see chess more like abandonware - if someone developed a proto-chess game and didn't assert their ownership over the IP (recognising that this happened before copyright and IP were understood concepts), doesn't that make it effectively free to play, noting you of course need a board to play?
Maybe an ancient and highly modded board game doesn't translate that well to a software/copyright analogy. Also you lost me on your comparison between Mario Party (I think you mean only one person needs to own the game) and the first levels of Doom (which are more like a demo). I don't see either of these as shareware, though I guess a freely playable demo is a form of shareware with my understanding of the term above!
It's too easy to make, and weed is too easy to grow, so neither should be restricted since they're part of our culture and will be consumed anyway. Broadly true for other drugs as well since they can be got, but it's not like just anyone can make MDMA (which, if taken in a pure and controlled dose, is safer than both cannabis and alcohol incidentally, with therapeutic benefits too).
Yes, a prominent manufacturer is likely to publicly destroy their product to target one person, rather than simply have their lawyers and accountants make life as difficult as possible for this person.
It's just more climate catastrophising. CaCO3 and H2CO3 form a buffer that would minimise the effects of acidification. The idea that all fish would die is dumb. Terrestrial plants produce oxygen by photosynthesis so oxygen won't disappear from the atmosphere.
Try not to let the bot hurt your feelings, it was trained on cunts 'n' assholes
