I support piracy because I think:
First they need to destroy your income, then they can make you do whatever they want
They don’t need an economy. They need obedient workers
A company in Europe has to respect patents. Same for a company in the USA. Not a company in China. Of course this has an impact. Failing to grasp this is at best naive at worst purposefully misleading.

We should be critical of our manufacturers but we should also not forget China is basically getting its R&D for free by stealing tech from everybody (all do, but some more than others).
How do you want to do this? Linux is a kernel the world relies on. It powers your car, your fridge, your satellite, your phone, the entire Internet, the army, etc. Nothing comes close to Linux in market share. The distros are built upon the kernel. System76 may have to comply, but the other maintainers don’t give a flying fuck. They could even write a small line somewhere on their repo that says “this distro is not allowed in California” and call it a day.
No, I don’t think this is correct. There was a time during which Google did great things. Their search engine allowed millions if not billions to gain access to knowledge. They had a positive impact on a lot of FOSS projects. What they were is not what they are.
Quick reminder that anthropic CEO praised Trump for his AI plans. Anthropic also created an organization to help elect politicians that favor them and their business.
A broken clock and all that.
No but you don’t get it. AI is such an amazing tool, it can do everything and replace everyone. Did you try my new model yet? It’s blazing fast and can tell you to drive to the car wash to clean your car. It’s will revolutionize the world
I use salt as a a weed killer in some specific area. So I guess I know, at least a little bit
Wen speaking about copyright and how the USA is abusing its power, this is worth watching
I need a shit ton of salt in winter for my road. But for how long?
Thank you. Yeah, I can be pretty confrontational sometimes.
I wish you a nice day. See you around!
I hope this is satire.
Ho, so because it’s been like that, it’s ok?
Edit: don’t even bother answering, you’re a clown.
Already done and don’t assume nothing of me.
No, you cannot say that Valve is a shitty company. And your entire post is trying to make it sound like saying it is an extremist point of view.
Now I’ll wait for you to apologize and and acknowledge you did not have any idea of what you were talking about before commenting. I’ll let you throw day, so you can go through the entire series.
I am not saying you are. I am saying there are a lot of valid reasons and it is not as simple as “if I do it I am for it but when big bad company does it it is bad”.
