That won’t put butts in seats in theaters to make up for the money being invested. Microsoft wants a new generation of kid money.

People need to wake up to the fact that these movies are ads to sell shit. This is an ad to sell Minecraft to a new generation in of kids. Why in the world do you think they keep rebooting movies that’s made for kids like Star Wars and Transformers? Because they sell toys to kids.
So, why Minecraft movie? You admit the stats yourself: they need a new generation of kids to like Minecraft to sell Minecraft branded shit. They don’t even have to play the fuckin game as long as they’re paying for cheap branded clothing and plastic and skins for kids to show off to their friends what brand represents their personality the best.
People don’t understand: we already outlawed “theft” and “stealing”—we wouldn’t need COPYright laws if they prevented theft or stealing 😂 they only prevent copying, aka not theft or stealing.
But people keep strawmanning “stealing is bad mmkay???”
I’m not sure how you can look at hundreds of years of IP laws getting btfo by pirates and say the ship is sinking 😂
I’m sorry, but until you can somehow answer the question of “how to make people avoiding laws impossible?” without causing a revolution, there will be laws avoided by people
No laws have ever stopped people from getting what they want. Games will be made by those who hate IP laws and be played by those who seek it. Will that scene be a trillion dollar industry backed by governments and international corporations like the AAA scene is today? Probably not. Will a punk indie scene exist? Of course.
Every popular entertainment medium that has a giant industry will see these same results as well. Movies, books, music, etc. As long as the medium is popular, it will persist outside of IP laws.
Thom has a point about Trump and not playing in America. Personally I’d rather see more people boycott America.
I don’t think anyone is against paying to watch a decent quality sports stream without popups and any additional ads. I won’t give the nfl $100/mo but I’ll pay $50/yr for some pirated setup
Pretty easy to set up a remote for GitHub in Gitea.
You can just look at the source code… no need to assume anything. You can’t prove a negative lol
If the entire US economy necessitates oppressing rail workers, then yes, rail workers striking is a good thing. It sounds like they are extremely important, according to you, and should be listened to.
Love typst! I’m looking forward to writing RPGs in it some day :)
Refusing PureScript and Haskell is a signal that you don’t care about code quality.
My point was that it’s pretty much impossible to indent with tabs in lisp. It’ll be harder to read and scan for everyone else who has a different tab with. How you indent and what you want to indent to is very different compared to a c-style language.
laughs in lisp
Nah, I’ll keep on sticking with spaces or whatever the language’s formatter uses. Ain’t no way am I mixing tabs and spaces, will just stick with spaces.
all D&D movies ever will be bad ig
