If copyright were abolished, all FOSS and Creative Commons licenses would be rendered null and void, since they depend on copyright law to work.
That’s certainly reassuring.
I’m just imagining someone on lemmy.world going on a long, profanity-filled rant, and people on lemmy.ml having no idea what they’re talking about.
Can’t wait to experience the tech support call center scams in Dolby Atmos.
Out of the frying pan, into the fire.
I’m really pushing the limits of “No Stupid Questions”…
Not yet, anyway.
The MPAA still has never been able to demonstrate that privacy even has actual impacts on movie and ticket sales…
It does. If everyone paid for tickets in cash and never online, they wouldn’t be able to harvest user data.
Jobs, who once famously characterized death as “likely the greatest invention of existence,” left this world with a lasting gaze at his loved ones and a simple, yet enigmatic remark: “Oh wow. Oh wow. Oh wow.”

I must say, that is an excellent Firefox theme.
I’ve seen this happen far too many times.

There is another fan project called “4K77”, which also attempts to restore the original version of Star Wars. They somehow managed to get their hands on the original film reels, and scanned them digitally in 4K. It looks very grainy, but this is to preserve the original experience of watching the film in theaters in 1977.
So if you want a modern-looking and cleaned-up version of the original “New Hope”, then watch Harmy’s Despecialized Edition (keep in mind it’s only 720p). If you want the genuine '70s theater experience with the film grain and everything, watch 4K77.
