Oh, no biggie. Shit happens.

At least now you know to check your settings.

Old obscure shit you say? Sounds like I might be interested. Can you let me know what you’re seeding and where I can find a torrent or magnet?

I did not know of this app but you know I’m gonna install it now.

Thanks Google!

I think I would want to be able to adjust the viewing angle of the screen. I imagine you would want to set it up in a way that is similar to a mechanic typewriter.

With blackjack and hookers?

Me too. Don’t care much for commercial uses.

Don’t know where but I know I’d be interested.

I get the idea of paying for fonts but it’s like copyright law to me. After x years it’s free game.

Ah, thanks. That makes sense.

I personally only use bittorrent and irc to download anime and had never heard of this.

Can someone explain to me what aniyomi and anime extensions are?

I still disagree with the notion made up by punlishers that you buy a dvd or cd you somehow only buy a license to view it. I never agreed to that and you can’t just print text on something to make it so.

Ofcourse I don’t have the right to make reproduction but owning the physical product should make me the owner.

Maybe not related to your comment but I wanted to rage about this.

But I want 320mbps and I don’t want the extra sounds that come with some music videos.

I did not know about this one. I was using my free mp3 juices but that seems to have died in the beginning of this year.

No, it was me

This makes me want to download it to snoop around.

I agree, this kid would be a great pentester.

You could care less about that for sure. See what I did there, hehe.

I understand that at a personal level you would want to share wealth with your children and their children, but that is not what copyright is about. The intention is that the creator gets to make their earnings out of their original product for a limited time only. So that they can continue to make original products and make a living. It is not intended to provide for your family for generations. While this may be what it has become with the help of corporations, in my opinion this is not it’s intended use.

Aside from that I think your works should become public domain after a limited time, prefferedly during your lifetime. So that as much as possible people get to enjoy your original works of art.

You make a good point about generational wealth in business and I think there should be limits to that as well. It doesn’t help the world at all if wealth just stagnates like that and in my opinion it should be shared with those doing the actual work, instead of a select few who were born in it, were extremely lucky, or gained money in immoral ways.

I’ll leave it at that since I am not the right person to go into a discussion with you about all of these things. I do want to thank you for your work and for gifting us with your books entertaining us and giving us an escape of daily problems, expanding our knowledge with educational content or whatever else. Know that you are valued and there are people out there being touched by your work.

I don’t know how many might be still be around, but I know for a couple of movies where they are. I don’t think they have been properly archived and/or converted to digital media yet. I would like to see if there are people in The Netherlands that can do these things and if the current owners of the rolls of film are willing to.

Some older dutch movies were released as rentals to the theaters that had to be returned after they stopped playing the movie. These copies were all destroyed and re-releases on DVD now look worse than what it looked like in movie theatres.

The good news is that some theatres hung on to some movies.

Tolkien Estate? What’s that? People profiting off of the work of an author who has been dead for 50 years?

Copyright law is fucked up.
