Karen would like to go where no one has gone before, too.

The problem with tourniquets is that you sometimes lose the limb. And I would say that the limb that has been lost here, the music industry is fighting to try and save. Because, "BUT, BUT, BUT, WE OWN IT!!@@!" They wanna control how people get access to it. They wanna control how people buy...

Is no one here gonna mention how fucked up IGN's rating scale is? 10/10 is not perfect. Okay, got'cha. 5/10 is not average. wat? So... Lemme get this straight... IGN will give a game an 8/10 even though it's a dumpster fire, but it's pumped out by a AAA company, unless it's a...

It's not really the film makers that would benefit from this. It's the advertisers. Imagine if we had Revolution, by The Beatles playing on every advertisement? And I'm only saying 10 years because of the extreme, already in place, over reaction that copyright law extends. If I go and say...

That's why I say that all of it should be tossed over into free domain after 10 years. Of course, Captain Obvious (err, I mean @China Bat Soup ) over here, refuses to address this, and refuses to go back and read my rant. If the billions of dollars per year music industry can't take a shitpost...

Oh and hey. Water is wet. Anything else new and interesting you wanted insight on?

Wow, I think I'll just jump into a conversation that I know absolutely nothing about. And then call everyone weird, to boot.

And still, nothing to do with my previous points.

Look, dude. You obviously aren't part of the solution. You're only part of the problem. You're the reason I say that copyright laws should be cut back to ten years. I knew some fucker like you would come along, and lo and behold. Here you are. I would say that I set a trap, but it wasn't...

It doesn't matter. If they said it in the trailer, it's gonna suck. I'm calling it Goish's Law. If they say in the trailer "lootz0rs!" or any derivative, it'll really blow chunks.

Said one of the no-no words in the trailer. Loot. Sorry, I'm out.

The music publishers don't give a two shits less about what you heard online. All that they wanna know is where you heard it, and how they can make money off of it.

It always amazed me the number of people that have said, "Aww, yeh, MetaCritic's user score? Never check it out. That place is a dumpster fire." Like, really? Do you go on Amazon and buy whatever Shiny New Product there is, just because it says it'll wipe your ass for you? I mean, do you...

Joe Rogan recently said, and I'm paraphrasing here, "I wouldn't be surprised if they start to do with podcasts what they did with music across the board." Which is, fuck the podcast owner over while only paying him in exposure. EDIT : Oh, sorry, it was Bill Burr who said that.

Looks like Cyclops from the X-Men at 80.

I've had a copyright claim (as a matter fact, a couple) before. One was for a Marvin Gaye song. The man has been dead for thirty six years. Yet, there's BMI, CHA-CHING! Ready to cash in. It's fucking disgusting. As a matter of fact, I wouldn't hate it if we kept the copyright laws the...

What, like it is now? Writer writes a story, goes for years that it doesn't get made into a movie... Signs away his rights to it, and then all of a sudden it gets picked up and made into a blockbuster that the studio will own for 100 years? That's only if they don't decide to renew their...

Yah, Pantheon might be released by now. I realize that this doesn't help my case, but still funny, if sadistic.

Where will Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 source code be available? | Red Hat Connect for Technology Partners So, if you wanted to take the time out and build it yourself, you can. Just don't expect any support. Because the people who have support, have paid for it. I mean, that's what CentOS...

I believe, although I'm not certain, that Red Hat is still a FOSS project. It's the support people are paying for. Not the OS.

Right, and that's exactly why Linux is used for 90% of our servers today.

What's the alternative? To have shitty shows and movies coming out, like we do now? Games? Games have such a low sell through rate after say, a year (hell, a month) that I just wouldn't care. I don't think that anybody in the software industry would give a shit either. The only people that...

Our copyright system is crazy. It's your lifetime plus twenty years. So, If Billie Joe Armstrong of Greenday, at 18, had only written When I Come Around (and no other songs), he was already set for life. And his kids were probably set for most of their lives, too. I ran into a guy who...
