I saw some video on A Difficult Game About Climbing a while back. The things they did to make the guy appear to grip the rocks and suck normally make the hands utterly bizarre when seen from the side.

They don't seem too clear on the science they're reporting, but if I'm understanding it right, this is supposed to be the largest stellar origin black hole. The fact that Sagittarius A* is just a bit under 4.3 million solar

I wasn't claiming that SLAPP applied, I was claiming that it's used to avoid even getting to discovery when it does apply, because even letting cases get that far is expensive.

The part I was trying to get at is that under current law, true threats are their own category. Hate speech that is a true threat is illegal, due to being a true threat. Hate speech that is not a true threat is awful, but legal. So hate s

Certainly, but if they had a theory where sites like 4chan (and HN) were excluded, they wouldn't have sued them in the first place.

True threats are a distinct category that may sometimes overlap with hate speech. But those statements are illegal because they threaten immanent lawless action, not because they're hateful.

Child porn is illegal. Hate speech, however disgusting, is not. And FWIW, most of the platforms do their best to filter out both.

It's more important than you're implying, because it subjects the sites to discovery, which is quite burdensome. Avoiding that sort of trap is why we have SLAPP laws.

The problem with that is that the only "product" here is their website. Regulating harmful speech as a "product" seems a bit odd because the product exists only to convey certain speech. Any device used to convey harmfu

It's funny, the game companies lost the emulator court cases. But the companies behind those emulators still went out of business.

The other thing is that averages remove distribution information. As even the article admits, the crime is not evenly distributed across the USA. Getting your car broken into almost never happens for most of the USA, though it's very,

When picking how you dress yourself, you use the local temperature, not the global (or national) average temperature. The same is true of crime rates, distribution information is lost when averaging.
