About equal, I’d say.

Maybe I’ve got it wrong, but surely the statute of limitations had long since past?

Very effective, this persons self immolation will certainly change the war.

You’re right, I got frustrated with work and took it out on you, I apologize.

The penal code necessarily uses incredibly narrow definitions with very specific verbiage.

Using the word steal in OPs title is common use of the word, which aligns with the dictionary definition, they certainly are not quoting a legal definition

Get outta here with this dumb shit.

So much ‘verbal’ diarrahhea to try to make yourself feel better about what you’re doing.

I pirate shit, that is a form a theft. Cope with it or stop doing it.

You do understand the difference between penal code and the definition of a word, no? Surely the reason why the two are not at all even slightly interchangeable is plainly clear to anyone of reasonable intelligence.

To selectively focus on one small sliver of the definition of the word, ignoring the full meaning of the word and the context to push your agenda? Smells like propaganda.

I guess you can’t steal anything when you just decide to limit the definition of the word.

But if we’re in reality and using the way words are actually defined then yes you can steal something intangible, and no it does not require someone to be deprived of something.

How exactly is one supposed to just know someone’s a criminal? And what do they think the flight attendants job description is?

Throw the guy in jail, terrible it happened. But I dont see how they’re gonna get anywhere in that lawsuit

Theft isn’t specific to property, you can steal services too.

The water is certainly muddy with digital media, but this is just another oversimplified argument.

If you need to do mental gymnastics to feel OK about pirating then…idk find something better than this.

See comments below for more mental gymnastics

That’s not the point: paying people for any random thing they decide to do doesn’t make sense and doesn’t work.

Pirating games isn’t nearly as attractive as other media. Big studio Games are usually released in a broken state and pirate sources rarely keep titles updated.

I get a feeling people aren’t a fan of family gatherings with you.

Freight? No.

You’d use a sprinter van for that.

Hahahahahaha

A perfech illustratration why lemmy sorta sucks.

Breachd by a battering ram

When you don’t know that they are ethnically the same people…

You talk like AI I’d a singular entity that can only do one thing?
