No. Everyone does understand that such usage is fine. It's like owning a gun. You can use it legitimately to display on the wall or illegitimately to rob a liquor store. In the case of guns the fear for illegitimate usage is such that

Tons of people do things that might one day make money while not actually ever making money. For me that's an indie game. But that kind of mostly unrewarded labour won't be done if getting paid one day relies on, essentially, begg

What i do not understand is how it works. I had not followed anything yet it gave me a result. But the search results seem to be allright. It even had recipes for andijviestamppot.

Yes I'm aware switch games won't be forever and that's sad. I wish Nintendo was a little better in that regard. But I do not subscribe to the idea that these are multi billion dollar corporations and hence we can do basically

Great. Facilitating more piracy. Can't people wait at least until the successor is out? I understand that it's a good way to put your name out there by being the first to do a certain thing and upload to GitHub but it's also

The thing is they need to sell things to pay for those dollars hence it's free goods for the us as the us does not need to pay for the dollar. Free stuff is always nice.

What i do not understand is that this happens while the bank still has enough liquidity to cover 50% of deposits. At least from what I understood. Seems like there will be quite a few banks with less than this.

I mean I guess I did build an overbed table to put the TV on. I don't know whether it counts as tech though.

Not every e-commerce site agrees. I tried to review a book that I wasn't entirely happy with on bol.com recently. They told me I can only write reviews of books that I purchased there (ironically I bought it at a retailer that is part

I think honestly the problem is small disks. Games are achieving almost photorealism on 4k with maybe 150gb. That's quite honestly not bad. You can't store the universe on a floppy disk.

Trains are great if they go where you need to go. But of course their high infrastructure requirements mean they won't always. Still to visit my friends i usually take the car as they don't live in the same city and housing near t

Not just bikes makes it feel like the solution to everything is to be like the Netherlands. In that sense it's a fraud. To some extent yes you should be more like us and offload some of that traffic onto a bike path. To the extent that

You ask 'why so extreme'. What mostly riles me up about some 'foss movement' people is the fact that some of them think they're morally superior. In cases like the poster I replied to it seemed obvious and I point o

It's only a great alternative if you believe GitHub deserves to die because it hosts everyone and making proprietary software should be made as difficult as possible. Which is the same as being against people making a living from build

Personally I'd rather see something getting done than endless feasibility studies. That sort of stalling can really prevent countries from making any progress.

Mistakes have been made in the past. Just because something can be done safely doesn't mean it always will be. I am also a big fan of nuclear but that doesn't mean it's perfect.

Does knowing where someone is from disqualify him or her from having an opinion? This type of sentiment borders on racism.

I think if the batteries will be too big of an issue then we will end up going hydrogen for cheap cars and battery ev for more expensive vehicles for people who drive a lot.

Copyright is also old. Not as old as the library of Alexandria but old. public libraries seemb to be at best a few centuries older than copyright.

I inquired and their price for any economic usage is $2400 per year. They left that out. This is not a suitable tool for ordinary developers.

it makes sense. Libraries are a form of copyright infringement. Philosophically at least. Of course it will suck when everyone realises that but that doesn't mean it's not true. I'm making a game. Perhaps it will be bought b

Paying adults more does not really cover a labour shortage, it just ensures the ones that can't afford to do that go bankrupt or relocate so it's a false equivalence. Whether this is the right solution people will have to figure o

Not sure what he thinks but here's what I think. Although the verticality thing isn't bad in and of itself (it does look nice) it effectively gives you less space on the screen which encourages usage of space saving measures like
