Murder has a fixed cost of human lives, which is considered (by the living) to be reprehensible at every scale.
Piracy has a negligible cost on the industry, and contributes to a positive upward pressure on IP holders to compete with low-cost access. These two crimes are not the same.
Oh, so you believe in mob rule then OK I got it. And no because there are uncensored LLM’s like menstral so it’s a you need to worry about yourself problem. Stop trying to parent me who the hell are you?
“but a large enough majority of other people feel differently.
In other words, it’s a you problem.”
Ignoring the enormous strawman, you just made, how do you know what the majority opinion is on this topic?. you don’t. You’re just arrogant because what you actually did is conducted a strap hole in your own mind of people in your echo chamber and said yeah the majority of people think my opinion is right.
that that’s called mob rule.
Next time I’ll speak slower so you can keep up that’s why it seems scattered you’re having trouble connecting the dots.
“The only thing worse than an idiot is an arrogant idiot.” you’re the dumb one here you just are too dumb to know it.
It makes no sense to spend more money to mint the actual money, then the money is worth OK. You might not like it, but something has to be done because to continue in a slow and methodical process

2) people love to throw out criticisms of solutions that aren’t perfect not realizing that it’s still better than the status quo. To do nothing is costing money or in the case of Ukraine it’s costing lives.
3) I bet you $100 You don’t like Trump.
1) DMV is state-run, not federal govt.
2) Why can't we at least spend 5 minutes studying how it went in Canada, and learn that govt guidance was helpful to the transition, so do that too?
3) Sure. And even more because, even when he DOES pick up on a good idea (I support elimination of the penny), he does so in a haphazard / slipshod way that the end result is often worse than if nothing had been done.
I actually like Trump (or at least his presidency) a lot more than I think most Hacker News browsers do. I like Trump's presidency more than most of my co-workers and many of my friends do. My arguments in this thread are entirely my own, not the product of some political allegiance.
No, otherwise Sam Altman wouldn’t have had a outburst about revenue. They know that they have this amazing system, but they haven’t quite figured out how to monetize it yet.
They really like to blow sunshine up your ass don’t they? I have to do the same type of stuff. It’s like have to assure that I’m a big boy and I can handle mature content like programming in C
> Yeah, because nobody can take personal responsibility from them themselves anymore. And everybody turns to big government to save them.
Ah yes, why demand that doctors be properly licensed – you should just "take responsibility" and do a little background check after your car crash, just to make sure you're not operated on by some random hack.
I wonder how much time you'll spend inspecting farms and food processing plants in order to "be responsible" about the food you eat.
Have we seriously learned nothing from the last century or so of mostly sensible regulations? I dread our species' future.
