Surely the only languages that are not weird are those specifically designed to be widely spoken?

And no-one wants to speak those!

“Who goes there”, John Campbell, 1938.

(And I seem to recall more movies that are rehashes of that novella.)

It’s German, and you’re about as right as anyone trying to say a German word in English can expect to get.

That’s actually a nice one.

Yeah.

And we can still block entire sites on the web.

The sites the friends with adblockers promote.
The friends who don’t notice what they promote.
What unholy bastards the people who own the sites they promote are.

You know, that’s a good idea anyway.

I wonder though what that would mean for the copyright?

In Buddhism, yes.

For Hindus, well, it’s complicated.

For other people who happen to believe in reincarnation?
That would be anybodys guess, I guess.

In Denmark the case surrounding “Nøddebo præstegård” caused copyright to be enacted.

I’ve noticed the theme come up in other countries, amongst these France, but I’ll grant that I may have overestimated its importance by overfitting to prior knowledge.

The purpose of copyright in the USA, and as far as I know in Brittain, yes.

But please remember that in much of the rest of the world copyright is a reaction to people, creators, getting in trouble over third party usage of their creations.

Leading to the idea that a creator should have the power to stop people from using their works for whatever the creator deems objectionable.

Denmark has 880 Pirates of all kinds and they “reach” 46% of 15-24 year olds?

That’s some bloody effective Pirates right there!

Thank you, I was really wondering what “csb” stood for.

And Krita.

Also Blender? I’m mean if they’re adding sound effects.
Sofie Jantak does 2D stuff in Blender

Also don’t pirate rain and door knocks, just get them from people who freely share that sort of thing.

Oh, by the way, text-only browsers are still a thing.

You might want to look at links and/or lynx and see if they cover your usecase.

It’s a service.

It’s a service given to you for free by a company with no apparant way of generating income.

Would you think about that, please?

The vast majority of the value of a consumer facing computer system is in the people who help other people.

They know that.

Can we be totally honest here and just state what the fear is?

If slaves could vote they’d vote for freedom.

There’s a hole the size of a railroad junction in the 13nd amendment.

Ford was innovative because he used the scientific method to find out how long the work-week should be from a factory-owners perspective.
And then he set it to that.
If you’re a cog in a wheel in a factory that is still the ideal work-week from your owners perspective, sorry.
