What’s the precedent and current consensus for caselaw? I remember that Capitol v. Thomas kicked off the notion of “making available” as an infringement of the distribution right, but I haven’t followed everything that came after.

A streaming media player that uses a plugin system to greatly customize its capabilities: https://www.stremio.com/

Here’s a guide.

It’s poor for the second, since the result is a gas (hard to store long term). We would want it as a solid or liquid product, which this doesn’t do.

Why wouldn’t the device include or feed a compressor to liquidize the CO2? It takes just a little over 5 atm of pressure which is trivial.

I think a likely scenario would be for name changes, such as taking your partner’s surname after marriage.

Talos Linux is another unique option.

Lots of people don’t have to pay taxes.

I was also thinking this was close:

Agreed (mostly).

Just because something isn’t illegal, that doesn’t make it morally right. The inverse also applies.

Even though the First Amendment prohibits government suppression of speech, it doesn’t mean that the expression is immune to consequences from society including non-governmental suppression.

I think the “no arrests were made” observation was meant in relation to your last point, not the first at all.

For most people, using https and dns over https (DoH) is probably all that’s needed.

You shouldn’t label him as transphobic if the only issue is that he said one thing wrong in an argument 7 years ago which he apologized for and took down. Is there a pattern of that behavior?

Every human misspeaks from time to time, and it looks like his response to feedback was handled with grace.

That made me think it’d look good as a card:

Isn’t that because Dan hasn’t open-sourced his project yet

Wrong: https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/blob/dev/LICENSE

and doesn’t let anybody else contribute?

Hmm, while there have been 158 contributors, a very small percent were from the other developers: https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/graphs/contributors

This information is pretty easy to look up.

Right? So much of this seems like people not able to tell if actions are good or bad independent of who takes the action. There’s no way their team could ever do anything bad, and anything done by the other team is automatically bad.

God forbid you try to reinforce a rare good behavior from someone who’s also done a lot of horrendous things.

I don’t know where you are, but real Coke is made with phosphoric acid, which is also used for rust removal or conversion.

Wrong. These people can’t handwave away their portion of responsibility for the current situation. They chose to lend their skills to a company with a long, well-documented track record of actions harmful to society. If you can get hired by one of the FAANG companies you could also get hired by nearly any company.

Leopards/faces, etc. These people were fine with contributing their cogs to the evil machine that is facebook in exchange for a ridiculous salary, but now want it to be a big deal when it affects them more specifically.

There are some blatant disinformation peddlers on Lemmy and it seems like Grue and yimby should have that reputation because the developed area in the second pic barely overlaps that of the first. How could this be anything but intentional?

Here’s a side-by-side with as close as I could get with current imagery:

Identified in each is the 1910 Harris County Courthouse which is many blocks away from the are of the second pic.

Here’s a comparison of the two and an intermediate perspective from modern imagery. The approximate area of the two pics are outlined in different colors, and a few buildings that are common in all three have been lettered. These are now some of the smaller buildings in the downtown area. It makes sense that lower-density / less-efficient buildings would be replaced with more modern structures (though one of them was replaced with a park 💚🌳). The implication from initial juxtaposition of the original pics that a bunch of tall buildings were torn down to make parking lots is a flat out lie.

Someone stealing any physical property is likely bad for one or more reasons.

Also, you can’t steal an idea or a concept. Copying digital information doesn’t deprive the creator of the original. Copying isn’t theft.

What commercial physical video media doesn’t have DRM?

Except the value proposition still needs to make sense, so resigning to just pay the creator license holder exorbitant rates for ever-more-enshittified services is learning the wrong lesson.

They have used their control over the system to grotesquely distort copyright from its original intent of getting more cultural works into the public domain for people to use and build on, to instead lock everything away for lifetimes. Don’t buy into their lies and propaganda that they have any moral high ground.
