Have you used OBS? It’s not just “streaming software” it’s a software audio video mixer.

This is incorrect. For example, this happens all the time to celebrities. Someone takes their photo in public and sells it to magazines who publish the photo on the cover. They receive no money and have signed no release.

Purchasing a manuscript doesn’t give you the copyright to it. So it would be you that needed a separate contract in this example.

Did you even see the movie?

Something I learned when working on the Sonic the Hedgehog movie is that SEGA doesn’t own that ring sound. They have a license to use it in video games but it’s owned by a 3rd party. It had to be relicensed for use in the movie.

That requires bob to sign a certificate of authorship. Good luck getting the AI to do that.

The majority of filming that happens in Colorado and New Mexico is done by crews that belong to IATSE Union locals. Acted in by SAG-AFTRA members and written and directed by DGA and WGA members. You don’t know what you are talking about. Pr

No, the article doesn’t say that’s, it says that in a statement the university said that. They are (if not outright lying) surely calculating that number in the most favorable way possible probably doing things like include remote grad stud

That’s not really how it works. Copyright is less about process than result. For example, a human can—-completely from memory—-draw an entirely new image and it can be found to be infringing on an original. Similarly if I took someone else’

That’s the minority of their images and also if it’s the version from their server with their watermark on it, it actually is their IP to manage. So as you said it’s not especially relevant and it’s very clear stability didn’t limit its scr

Could this be combined with Blender Apps as a way to make apps for Symbian I wonder? https://code.blender.org/2022/11/blender-apps/

I’m assuming those headers are just from whatever he based this code on or autogenerated by some sort of Symbian/Nokia IDE/devtools. But also this seems to be a “lite” version of Blender, what makes you think it has nothing to to

I mean the parody account being referenced here (@madandpissedoff) was one that pretended to be the WWE wrestler undertaker and almost exclusively tweeted denials about shitting his own pants at the mall. I’m not sure it was really leading

This will change if they switch hosting but here’s a list of all the ip prefixes for their current hosting provider. https://bgp.he.net/AS35913#_prefixes The IPs they switch between may all be from this pool.

The comments I’m talking about are not speaking about Luxembourg they are speaking (incorrectly) about the US and copyright in general. Also the Luxembourg system does work this way. In the case discussed here, they simply said the underlyi

I think you are misunderstanding what a derivative work is and what is required for something to be considered one. Read the examples in the link you posted. Many of these don’t incorporate a literal direct copy of the underlying work.
115.
by VanTheBrand 4y ago
That’s actually incorrect. In your example it’s fine only because the painting is old enough to be in the public domain. In general (with rare exceptions) you can’t paint an exact copy of a work under copyright and then utilize that copyrig

Lots of posters here seem to fundamentally misunderstand the basics of copyright protection and derivative works. So many replies about the example here not being an “exact copy” and therefore “obviously” not deserving of protection. I wond

As far as I know that hasn’t been established yet but is presumably what would be decided (especially in an academic environment). But yes the output is a totally different question.
