Palworld maker vows to fight Nintendo lawsuit on behalf of fans and indie developers
  • Idk about that, maybe indefinite copyrights would be but limited term is entirely fair. Like imagine you spend 5 years and $50M to develop something (random numbers here), then the next day someone just copies it and sells it cheaper since they had no overhead in copying your product. There's no incentive to create if all it does is put you in debt, so we do need copyrights if we want things. However Pokemon came out in 96, that's 28 years. There's been very little innovation in their games since. And seeing as Digimon wasn't sued it's not about the monsters, it's about the balls. But those balls haven't changed in almost three decades so I don't think the really have a case to complain

  • Hostile architecture reinforces hostility
  • This seems a bit oversimplified. Yes the homeless need a place, and that place should be built and funded. But at least in most of the places I've lived there are certain bus stops and parks that are not usable as they are full of homeless and addicts sleeping on all the benches and leaving needles all over (putting these together because this close to methodone clinics many homeless are addicts). It's unsafe for children (or adults for that matter) to use the parks, nobody can sit at the bus stops and at some stops there's such a crowd of homeless that people generally avoid them altogether. Would these measures from the picture help? No chance, because the anti homeless benches they've built are too small for the pregnant and too uncomfortable for injured and elderly so they've made it useless to everyone. I'm sure there's a reasonable solution where everyone wins, and I'm sure I'll never see it

  • As an adult, what seemingly childish things do you get excited about?
  • Dogs are a big one, I can be furious while stuck in city traffic and then see a dog and I'm happy for a minute. Also those pajamas that have the feet covered and everything. Also cartoons and video games but I feel like those are more acceptable adult things nowadays

  • What book(s) are you currently reading? 19 October
  • Just started black company by Glen Cook, also picked up a mistborn box set I'll either read after black company, instead of black company if i lose interest, or at the same time of my bookclub starts again

  • It's important to read it right
  • I think originally it was rhode island and Providence plantations. Rhode island was Newport (island) and the plantations were providence, kings, and kent. But yeah Rhode island referred to the actual island. Then it became a state and eventually dropped half its name
