Bombs and cars possibly. Poison with very favorable conditions maybe. Bats and machetes no.

Bomb are illegal, of course you can create bombs with materials legally acquired. Still way more complex than shooting, the Columbine shooters’ bombs failed to explode, their guns did not.

Cars can be deadly as well but they have way more important alternative uses to firearms. They also are not as commonly used to attack people as guns where both are readily available.

The cause is not the weapon, yet with firearms the same person would be able to hurt more people.

This is a Linux community not a professional art/design community.

I figure that since proprietary software developers use copyright to stop us from sharing, we cooperators can use copyright to give other cooperators an advantage of their own: they can use our code.

Yes but the spirit of FOSS is clearly anti-copyright and a non copyright world would be preferable.

You don’t get to just do whatever you please with someones work.

The FOSS positions is that you should if you are not preventing that someone doing what he wants as well (or anybody else), which is the case with IP unlike real property.

It’s also how the world has worked for millennia, copyright and other IP law is relatively new phenomenon and even in the time it has existed it has not been as well enforced or accepted by society as say the concept of physical property.

AI is a great chance for commercial interests to push pro-copyright positions with a narrative of big bad tech corpos (absolutely true) vs little artist guy (bullshit, it’s big bad media corpos). I remember they tried to portray copyright and associated enforcement tooling (DMCA etc) as a solution to revenge porn, to rehabilitate it’s image.

She had an ‘association’.

Like, maybe the evil lady was at some point a co-worker or a neighbor or said hello to a gang member.

She had an association, ethnicity. That’s good enough for the right.

And then somehow: Open source = Siding against Palestine.

This is the most ridiculous part, if they ever try to enforce the license against someone the definition of evil is going to be decided by a court. In that context a humanitarian organization using your software to help Palestinians is more likely to be condemned than a military contractor that kills Palestinians.

We’re removing the bypassnro.cmd script from the build to enhance security and user experience of Windows 11. This change ensures that all users exit setup with internet connectivity and a Microsoft Account.

Any windows fanboy cares to explain how this supposedly enhances a user’s security?

The spin on requiring an internet connection being phrased as ‘ensures all users exit setup with internet connectivity’ is amazing too.

Certainly not in Congress.

In this case it’s not mere spinelessness, they were pushing for this before Trump to server the interests of their corporate masters (copyright lobby mostly, though big tech would also benefit).

And in Europe, the Spaniards, Italians, French, Russians and Swedes, are generally of what we call a swarthy Complexion; as are the Germans also, the Saxons only excepted, who with the English, make the principal Body of White People on the Face of the Earth.

The photos were in the ‘trash can’ according to the article. Most people would wipe their phone with a kleenex tissue.

They most certainly have this covered in ToS. IP law is not about actual creators’ rights.

You would pay the family that provided him with the means to kill himself?

They actually should be held accountable.

Its an incredibly pro US biased instance despite not being hosted in the US and having a .world domain.

Greatest hits are politics@lemmy.world forbidding non-US topics and of course news@lemmy.world and its bias check bot according to which every non US media is left wing biased.
