The problem with that is it doesn’t provide disincentive. If you catch 1% of pirates, the fine has to be more than 100x the loss to make it an economic disincentive.
You know, assuming these are tangible goods that cannot be copied without harming the creator. Reality is piracy does not correlate with sales very well.
I don’t always agree with your posts, but this one is 100%. Captures exactly how I am feeling.
In the actions page it lists three:
Tell your senators to confirm more judges - really? I need to tell them to do an obvious part of their job? Either they’re blue and they’re already doing that or they’re red and there’s no convincing them to go against their interests.
Take the pledge to vote against maga republicans - if you’re reading this site you already did that with negative effing results.
Regulate the use of AI in elections - weird choice of priorities but ok.
This masquerades as action but I don’t see any REAL action. We need to organize, plan, and execute real actions. Crash their parties, protest in front of offending politicians’ houses, 24/7 broadcasted surveillance of key offenders to apply real pressure to these wackos(if that’s legal, IANAL). If we keep doing what we’ve been doing we’ll keep getting the same results. We need to be large and loud and force our voices to be heard. We need our own news broadcasts calling them on their crap.
It’s perforated, just needs a little help.
I switched to the Tmo 5G internet a few months ago and it has been great. It’s not symmetric, DL is faster than UL, but it almost always matches or beats the 500D/50U cable service I had previously.
Looks like I did hit 1.2 TB one month but am usually half that.
That new thing could be worse than the current thing without a plan to drive it to where we want to go.
He blames his sleep meds for saying the quiet part out loud.
Which cabinet position is Elon vying for? Commerce? Transportation?
I came up with a new hotdish recipe using chili and made it for some of that Walz good luck. In a casserole dish, par cook 1 box of cornbread mix for 15 minutes. Let sit for 5 minutes, add 1/2c shredded cheddar to a 35 oz can of chili. Spread over parcooked cornbread, top with frozen mini corndogs, bake for an hour.
We’ve gotten much better at mass producing houses, but then they look like mass produced houses. New building supplies and methods are very fast to assemble and produce houses that are more energy efficient but without the labor and craftsmanship they are plane, square, and without craftsmanship. My century house with plaster walls and wooden siding and trim is not particularly ornate but there is a sense of craftsmanship. I have learned through repairs that maintaining this aesthetic is a LOT of work but the results look better than modern assembly methods.
