  • Actually, a lot of that sounds pretty practical.

    The barrels would work as slow burn barrels for long term heat on cold nights, the bike parts could be a source of income (part bikes > full bikes to sell), more than 2 pans seems too many, but he may go through them fast if used over an open fire (depending on the type of pan), for millennia campers kept fires buring over night or for days to make cooking later easier (yes it’s risky in some situations, but practical in general), and covering his car would ensure it looked cleaner and required lower maintenance (both have a lot of perks for a homeless person trying to live cheaply and fly under the radar). I’m not sure about the tires, but keeping cans and some other materials can def provide a source of income.

    Nothing is ever really disposable, except the abusive people in your life. We could all benefit from less of those. Everything else is reusable or recyclable. Just listing this guys possessions without explanations for them makes them easy to dismiss as trash, but that isn’t necessarily even close to honest. He likely had some actual waste on site from food prep or completed projects, but by no means was all his stuff trash.












  • Funny, the statute $2500 should be for the circumvention act, which was likely singular, not per file obtained during or as a result of the act. And the $150k is ridiculous in and of itself, even if for all files obtained. What a strange world we live in.


    Spotify built a system of control in order to profit a few at a cost to many, perhaps everyone else.

    Someone broke that system in order to benefit many, possibly at the cost of some of their ability to profit from their system of control–if they didn’t lose customers, or prospective customers, they didn’t experience any financial loss, or a loss in their ability to maintain their system of control (which is still very much in place and working).

    Either way, nobody was hurt.

    But the person who acted selflessly to benefit of society in general is punished.

    Because… We, as a society, celebrate and work effortlessly to maintain complex systems of abuse in order to satisfy our greed or the greed of others. All despite being taught in school not to lie to and bully each other, and to share with and care for each other.

    As a species: We are bat shit fucking crazy!




  • No.

    I’ve only ever read a forums rules when adding a post, in order to ensure it gets accepted.

    My comments on posts are responses to the post being seen by me. Any and all post seen by me are responded to as I see fit, ad hoc.

    If you don’t like em, you can feel free to do your job and moderate whatever content you can as you see fit, but I am in no way ever going to read and study and memorize the combined thousands of rules for every community that pops up in my feed on any social platform before commenting.

    Your demand is so far from reasonable, or rational, that my immediate conclusion is that you should be banned from ever moderating a public community.

    So, please take your head, and remove it from your ass: BTW, you sound like a hardcore fascist POS!

    Cheers.
