Starving to death in the forest is probably not very dignified, I gotta say.

And almost all of those servers have those channels marked as such. But when I set it as an NSFW channel, I didn't agree to demand my users' privacy be invaded. Now, I just remove the NSFW flag from those channels. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Don't make the mistake of thinking comments on a random article are indicative of the way the population actually thinks. They may not even be real.

Why get hung up on the legality of something like this, assuming you're just going to use it for personal use in your home? It's not morally wrong to take music you pay for and use it in a perfectly reasonable - and fun - way.

Haha, using that Fisher Price toy for this is super cute.

Oh no my PHPness is showing! Also, many, many countries use $, like Canada.

I won't deny some of the recipients are questionable, but I don't see how someone receiving the award or not would help prevent - or embolden - suffering in a country? I'm not familiar with what happened in Ethiopia, so apolo

Is it really that shocking that someone on HN would have worked at as many as 2 private companies?

Why not put a more powerful agent in there to handcraft defences?

Yup, a fundamental side effect of freedom is that some people are assholes and will abuse it. No, it won't kill open source, just as it hasn't killed the Internet.

What a strange way to phrase it, considering in your last comment you were talking about how copyright expiry is exactly for this purpose. Anyway, what is copyright expiration in America these days? 100 years? Also, is it simply a matter of

I think it's still a good deal even for more casual gamers - I imagine it would feel worse to spend $80 on a game that you may put an hour or two into, if you ever launch it at all. I imagine most casual gamers will simply not buy many

This recent price increase notwithstanding, Game Pass has been, in my opinion, and those of almost every gamer I know, incredibly good value for the money. I suppose it's probably like Netflix at the beginning though, and we'll st

Well I don't really have a line, but that doesn't mean I'm going to go linking directly to such sources in public - not everyone agrees with my stance on copyright. Those who do can easily go find it themselves. Also Macbeth
