That’s not unreasonable. That’s a law-suit. They will get back all this money with surplus.

Imagine that you have a company A. And you legitimately licens something from 3rd party company B. That’s your cost.

And you license something else from company C… that’s your profit some how?

On paper your relationship with company B and C is identical. There is nothing tangible linking you to company C more than B.

And if you manage to find something, they will shift the structure and change it.

You probably pay higher taxes than some of those companies.

Pirates. Enemies of the human kind.

Company A is in Poland. You regulate law in Poland. Company B is in USA. You don’t regulate a law in USA.

You want to tax company A, based on company B report, that was created for 3rd party government?

If only tax-evasion was so easily solved. The are not shy of restructuring completely just to fit into any gap that law created. On paper “BigBadCorpo US” and “BigBadCorpo Irealand” could be two completely separate entities, with BBCI turning zero to no profits becouse it license brand from BBCUS.

You would think that Worner Bross is a movie making company. It’s not. On paper it’s a company that lend very overprices movie equipment. To shell companies created solely for the purpose of creating one movie…

Taxes are hard and people who employ literal armies of layers have the edge over slow law making.

I think that surprising amount of them are already located in Ireland for that and other tax related possibilities. Giant corporations are basically pirates sailing on lawless waters.

Carbon tax.

Probably Russians using bots on Twitter… oh, wait.

Oh, that’s simple. They are idiots that don’t understand the product they sell.

Imagine that you are a best in the word graphic designer. And you have to sell your logo to someone, who literally don’t see the difference between quality work and the logo that their nice did in ms paint.

In their mind those are the same picture, so why should they invest in you while you are 300x more expensive?

The don’t see it, so their use data - that they also don’t understand - to look for X factors and came up with idiotic conclusions like “star trek movies with older first captains perform better than movies with younger first capitan, so good script should have old one” or “movies with 3 joks per 5-minutes performe better than movies with one joke per 5 minutes”… or “jar-jar bings”…

When future comic book author of the masterpiece Bone finaly got his 5-minute meeting with publisher who was basicly a godfather-legend-who-is-who off paperstrips he heard “you should redraw all your comics so all speech-bubbles are thought-bubbles. Why? Garfield uses thought-bubbles, and it’s so successful”.

Soulcrushing.

It’s the same reason why all all translations are shit now. People who decide are not literate enough to distinguish nuances of top-level translations from product of Google translate.

You’re thinking additional 30k to make sure that a script is good is rounding error in the cost of the movie. They are thinking, typing one page should take like 10-minuts right? So with $15/h…"

Remember, for them LOTR and Hobbit are “just as good” source materials for epic blockbuster trilogy.

They are literally quality-blind. Cost-cutting is all they bring to the table.

You’re describing my Facebook wall.

Hahahahahaha

Do you remember when writers strike, and the producents paid to cut leafs of trees, to denny them comfort of marching in shadow? It seems there is no limit of how much corporations are willing to pay to get rid of the inconveniences of dealing with human beings.

It seems that AI is amazing tool, that is bound to be used to make everything worse.

If you have this, you should have a sing-along blog as well.

I think that license similar to what D&D has is having a cake and eating a cake. You open your word to be used which grows the community, but you remain the control on key characters and aspects, so your onwers intrests are protected.

Thank you. I have trouble navigating peertube and finding good content and this is a step in the right direction.

Thanks

Can someone please provide the context what epsilon and phi suppose to represent and why they are 4 and 1/4?

Proton Pass has a feature exactly for that. You can create unlimited number of aliases, and kill ones that bacame compromised.
