  • Nintendon't: sues for "facilitating piracy"

    Also Nintendon't: facilitates piracy by restricting access to games people want to play

    Also Nintendon't: facilitates piracy by pointing people to Yuzu

    Also Nintendon't: facilitates piracy by hinting that "free" access to games might be at risk

    Also Nintendon't:

  • Suena interesante. ¿A cuánto se vende una cuenta?

  • Thank you! I was getting worried.

  • Only if good people can get into the public offices in the first place.

    No cookie for guessing what will the secret interview question to become a marriage officer will be in those States.

  • only just avoided

    The US in the 1940s: proceeds to round up and cage human beings specifically because of their race and country of origin

  • Aps perdón me auto corrijo, Boccelli fue segunda noche. Menos mal. Aún así, siento que fue muy temprano, en particular mirando en la parrilla lo que viene después, onda Maná y Los Bunker, hubiera tratado de shufflear un poco mejor esa baraja.

  • Creo que fue un craso error partir con Andrea Bocelli y más encima tirar todo lo otro grande la primera noche. Es literalmente lo mejor que tiene la parrilla de los últimos seis años y lo único que realmente cuenta como música, todas esas cosas del narcorap y el trap y vtubers esas cosas supuestamente más "modernas" son puro ruido, no música, no para un Festival de la Canción.

    Y ahora que partieron con lo mejor está claro que todas las siguientes noches, por definición, irán en declive, la verdad es que podrían dar por terminado el evento ahora que van ganando y sería lo mejor.

    Si hubiese sido mi organización, Boccelli hubiese sido el closing de la segunda o tercera noche. Porque eso es lo otro: si pones a alguien coo Boccelli, a cualquier artista o humorista que venga inmediatamente después lo mataste en vida.

  • Those corporations just leech off the work of developers just like they do off the work of everyone else. The only difference is developers get it worse because at least the employees get something close to the minimum wage.

  • Most Americans believe everyone else in the world is also American and views thing with skewed American morals, and this type of comment right here highlights it.

    Really?

  • Honestly I don't understand this thing of thing. If you are so for freeing Palestine, or against Israel, and limited to being one person, wouldn't it make more sense / do more overall good if you can take down at least one israeli with you? Instead of burning down alone.

    Frankly, it barely counts as a symbolic gesture.

  • Passive loaf says this incident will be reported and might result in a downgrade of your feline credit score.

  • Spotify wants to generate translations for these audiobooks in the original voices.

    Would an author be able to claim trademark infringement? Not to mention libel or slander, if the translation says something the author definitively wouldn't (and obviously hasn't)? Such as, say, AI inserting slurs.

  • Ah yes the "labour should be free" / "but if we have to get permits from every artist we won't be able to feed our AIs!" argument.

    Listen, I'm not gonna lie. it'd be wonderful if we lived in the utopia where everything is autotranslated for us (not to mention it's done correctly, no "Brock's jelly donuts"). But there's 123456 ways to get it done with human labour properly paid and the corporations are in the position where they have the power and the responsibility to do it. Else authors are going to end up with automated translations which are sold as "official" but over which they don't have control, in particular if the AI translation misrepresents them (using language the author wouldn't changing concepts, or even - imagine - adding slurs).

    Like, sure, maybe these corpos don't want to pay for someone to do the translation from scratch... but have they thought of looking for fandom translations and sourcing and paying for those? That's work already done, and has the advantage that someone cared enough about the "niche work", kinda like with anime fansubs. Or they could also, you know, novel idea and all, pay people a wage to translate this. I know. The horror. How dare I suggest that a company doesn't divert wages and income to the CEOs!

  • There’s a core disagreement about whether making a public post means consenting to it being used for all purposes without consent

    Wouldn't this better be served by implementing per-post licensing, rather than mixing federation into it? After all, most of the real issue is people not accepting the fact that, regardless of federation, bad actors can do bad things with their content. Federation is not gonna change that, but at least licensing posts would allow you a legal avenue to pursue, which currently doesn't seem to exist.

  • Care to cite sources for that? Haven't seen people playing "competitive multiplayer games" from most people in a while, now.

  • Lol you wish Linux was an equivalent to an iPhone in this analogy. Pretty analogy from you.

  • The Help: namespace is not articles tho.
