Sure, you've just described one of the ways that Monsanto is evil. Keeping a deathgrip on the seed production and making the cost of signing another contract just slightly less than the cost of a potential legal battle is scummy as hell. Instead of making things up to be mad at, let's be mad at them for that.
If tariffs work, then fuck yeah. I don't think they will in the long run, but if we end up winning the lottery I'm not going to get upset because I didn't like the numbers we picked
It's also super not worth all of the other shit we have to put up with, but let's take what wins we can
Edit: of course they aren't moving manufacturing to the US, so I guess this hurts China at our own expense. I guess it's only a win for whatever country they move manufacturing to
I feel that I'm correct because by both the strict definition of the word suing, and the inclusion of out of court settlements, I can't find any examples of Monsanto pursuing any sort of legal action against farmers who accidentally grew their crops when the seeds were spread by natural means.
Don't get me wrong, the concept of patenting a living thing is ghoulish and evil, and farmers should absolutely be allowed to grow whatever seeds they want. Just don't misrepresent someone intentionally breaching a contract as something totally accidental and out of their control
Piracy is a moral imperative for this exact reason. Right now it's "offensive" plotlines that they're removing. How long until they decide to remove any reference to Patty or Smithers' sexuality?
I don't want them to slam it, I want them to stop it. If any Congressperson were to physically restrain musk until he was arrested, I would move to their state and vote for them for the rest of their career.
I'm not trying to throw any shade at you, but it's kind of sad when the the question isn't "how do I get by without buying stuff," but rather "what can I buy more of to improve the situation?"
Well I mean my way is waiting until gameplay is published, as well as making sure the story isn't ass. I'm gonna let my coplayer decide if he wants to get it day one, but I imagine he'll hold out for a bit
Wrt BL3, we were gonna buy that on release anyway because we'd done the same for every other entry and DLC since the day BL2 came out. If we'd waited a few weeks, the only difference would be that we're prepared for the story to be ass
Almost never. The last one I digitally pre-ordered was Borderlands 3, and given how that turned out, I think I might buy BL4 on release day, if not a few weeks later
