Same, but I feel like a steward of the web, I’ve been using it for so long lol

Not interested in that other stuff, but are there any sites you recommend that are closer to the old qa?

Yeah that’s new 2014+ Reddit technology, back in the early days of the internet sarcasm was a lot harder to detect and you were expected to figure it out with context haha

lots of us don’t know people expect /s and still try to be sarcastic without /s

instead we used clues like emojis to denote it’s not serious like “lol” or “haha” when it’s sarcastic and funny or ;-; or T-T when it’s sarcasm and expressing frustration

It’s mostly 16–22 year old autistic kid boys from around the western world, so you’re not far off in that it’s the worst demographic humanity has to offer in terms of internet discourse. I say this as a sperg who’s been on 4chan since he was 16 😂

It’s old internet sarcasm, I seent it many times in my life. Yeah, pretty sure it was harmless satire :) the emoticon at the end is a dead giveaway maybe—that there looks like a millennial or zillenial calling card

What’s wrong with accepting payment for playing a sport? I really don’t see a problem of somebody trying to earn a living by doing that

Selling a game based off of the hard work of a game engine: good
Selling a mod based off of the hard work of intellectual property: bad

Is that too reductive? It’s the same industry: game dev

Okay but reverse engineering is no longer under any protection because no ip

Open source is effectively no different than public domain in this circumstance. You don’t have less rights

Making source available suddenly makes it free of copyright

Copyleft “fanfics” are what we call the entire SCP universe. CC-BY-SA is just like the GPL. Notice it’s not CC-BY-SA-NC (NonCommercial). Labor, even if it’s “mods” or “fanfics” is still labor. What, suddenly your work grew in value because it was based off of a different license agreement? The hard work didn’t change, yet it suddenly legitimately grew in value?

If i ever made a game, im making sure everything is released cc by sa and a FLOSS software license for the source code. Because fuck the mentality that says your work isn’t valuable simply because I didn’t give you a license to “my stuff”

People get mad when payment is expected for labor

Coops are companies that are worth championing in a capitalist setting, no? While money and capitalism is ever prevalent and seemingly necessary to interact with for survival, it’s good to have an option like a coop. Or actually an open source based coop.

And we can be hopeful for companies to have solid principles where if they are accused of genocide that they reflect on their actions instead of firing, and hope for a future where that’s the expectation instead of apathy.

It’s the minority report wtf

Tariffs apply when they arrive at port, not when you order. Yours might not ever show up because if they don’t pay the tariffs by EOD after arriving at port they get destroyed.
