>>304296 Sounds like someone hasn't seen the Diablo Immortal reveal.

>>304297 I haven't, but it rivals $599 USD in devs being out of touch, so I do know.

>>304293 >it's the assumption things will still be produced despite their production no longer being productive. The implication being that nothing ever got produced before copyright and patents were conceived.

>>304299 99.9999~% was the Bible, and you could tell how long a chapter was by how many shelves in the bookcase it took up. It wasn't nothing, but it isn't the last hundred years either, anon.

>>304299 They were things only invented for the tribe, the army, the religion. How come damascus steel and greek fire aren't in common use today, that stuff is ancient.

>>304299 >nothing ever got produced before copyright and patents were conceived Not with the speed and extent seen today. 500 years ago, the average person was illiterate, and the printing press was JUST invented.

>>304300 >>304302 Oh I'm not just talking about books because patents and copyright cover all kinds of human artifice. But yes stories, plays, histories, etc did get produced before modern IP concepts came into being. >>304301 >How come damascus steel aren't in common use today? Uhhhhhhhhhh anon.

Fortunately the people in this thread will never be in a position to dictate any laws, let alone national copyright and patent laws.

>>304301 >How come damascus steel Because we know how to make stronger, purer steel by a better, faster, more efficient process. >and greek fire Because naphtha and crude oil are garbage in comparison to white phosphorous or even just napalm. >that stuff is ancient. Yeah, and we've surpassed it, and not by a short way. You'd be further ahead bitching about how we actually lost the ability to produce stained glass windows of the quality we had been able to, although I vaguely recall reading that the old (or a new?) process was (re?)discovered and we can actually produced them as intricate as we could hundreds of years ago. >>304302 Even just with Amazon being willing to publish any old piece of shit for a pittance, there's massive volumes of works in excess of even a couple decades ago. Publishing just isn't gate kept the way it used to be.

>>304303 Chink pig iron with funny waves isn't damascus steel, it's just what they call imitations due to noone going after counterfeits. >>304305 It was an example of not sharing the process with random idiots, of course we made progress since then. Nobody even needs either of the things we listed when you can just use a laser cutter and nuclear bombs, which are closer in the timeline of history to your post than damascus steel and greek fire.

So Killdozer bread next, right?

>>304307 Yes.

>>304307 Wasn't expecting the thread to fill up so quickly. I'll just take the Killdozer images from this one for the new thread which will be posted at 700.

>>304161 >he MUST, be allowed to steal other people's work Be free to do so if a person chooses to, yes. And other people be free to pay the thief for stolen work, if they choose to, yes. Create what you want. Other people can take your creation and do their own version of it, maybe improving it. and anyone can choose to pay you or anyone else for the same idea. Ideas are not property.

>>304307 I thought that was days ago, june 6 is when tetris was released in the soviet union.

>>304293 >Acclaimed chefs make money being chefs, not from cookbook sales. The idea was that even though the chef's recipes aren't copyrighted, and someone else could cook the same recipes and sell them, restaurants still exist. If someone were to take Gordon Ramsey's recipes, reproduce all the recipes and open a restaurant, people will still go to Ramsey's restaurant, even if other people cook just as well and the same stuff as he does. >they make money selling clothes I agree and clothes are made, even though there is little to no copyright laws protecting them. You can't copyright T-shirts or ripped jeans, yet they are still made and sold. >but it's still a performative field that can't be reproduced with a scanner or a copied PDF Someone else can go on stage and say the exact same jokes with the exact same tone, at worst they get called a fraud and people stop going to his/her performances, but there are no copyright infringements, yet comedians still exists. The idea was that even if there are few to no copyright laws in these fields, and copycats can easily appear, chefs still make new recipes, designers still make new clothes, and comedians still mane new jokes.

>>304268 >The jew thinks that his race controls anyone As hilarious as watching your race being genocided.

>>304313 Back to work wagie, type up some more posts for me to feed LucianoGPT.

>>304166 >There are hundreds of games released into the public domain But there are still games not in the public domain. All so called "IPs" shall be public domain. Every single one of them. >>304172 Other people being prevented from making money of your idea is idiotic. You had an idea? Good. Now this idea is free for everyone else to make money of it. "Your" idea does not belong to you, or to any institution, as ideas are not property. >>304176 And corporations must release their ideas for public domain too. No amount of ideas already in public domain changes the fact that corporations are still holding some ideas behind retarded copyright laws. Billions of works in public domain? Not enough., Take out those that corporations hold. Everyone shall be allowed to profit from Disney characters, Star Wars, Robocop, whatever (insert name) "IP" you call it. Every single person in the world must be allowed to take those creations and make whatever they want with them and sell however they want to.

Go to bed Lu.

>he needs corporate permission to borrow other people's ideas Turkroaches really are subhuman.

>>304181 >Now days if you do that some lawyer will send you a letter with the tags #analexpansion #noncon #allthewaythrough attached to it. And that is why copyright laws must be abolished.

>>304186 This conversation is about everyone must be allowed to profit from any idea created by anyone AND everyone must be allowed the freedom to pay or not to pay for anyone's work. >No, that can still be illegal. Yes. And that being illegal is a mistake that must be corrected. >>304189 You won't pay then. The whole point is: people shall be allowed freedom to choose to whom give money to. >>304202 >There is nothing wrong with collectivism. Correct.

Killdozer bread?

>>304206 A better question: Why not allow everyone to make anything they want about Star Wars, and profit from it without any punishment? With the possibility of even improving it?

You guys really want me to do the Killdozer thread or go with something else? The thread's been filled out with it as the theme. Although it seems next year will be Tetris' 40th anniversary and Killdozer's 20th.So's your last chance or hold your peace.

>>304322 Just go with the killdozer theme so I can go to sleep.

>>304208 That is another example why copyright shall be abolished. Giving freedom to anyone to create works based on (for now) copyrighted material would inevitably enable better products, regardless of how many worse products get made.

The Killdozer birthday message is still up for me, so...

>>304325 Every day should be Killdozer day.

Alright, it may be late (or early given its a year short of the 20th anniversary) but come join the party where everyone's invited in the NEW THREAD: >>838614 >>838614 >>838614 >>838614 >>838614 >>838614 Except Nulistfag, kill yourself with the Lucianopill, my man

>>304217 >Doesn't that go back to the discussion we had earlier about capeshit and how people treat characters like they're a brand rather than a concept that you can drag and drop? And how everyone was disappointed by people having this mindset. And that mindset is what sells. >Vampire Savior didn't seem to have any issues. And it died quickly. >>304220 That is literally what has been going on since the beginning. They are there specifically because they are failures that can be easily exploited and discarded. >>304222 True. Hence the whole sperging against AI.

>>304223 >Anon, the entirety of the Star Wars Expanded Universe was created under said IP protection, and you're pretending it couldn't have been. Just a small fraction of all the people who like Star Wars and want to create their own works based on it AND profit from those works but don't want to be wageslaves to jewsney, but are prevented to do so by copyright laws. No copyright laws = more creators and more creations.

>>304270 Hello newfriend.

>>304031 You do understand that Castlevania is literally about Dracula, right? It's not just about random vampires. Dracula is the bad guy in every single game. It's the entire premise of the series. In Japan the first game (and at least three other separate games in the series) is called Dracula's Terrifying Castle, and the second game is called Dracula II. It's literally a series of Dracula video games, and none of it was licensed. >>304122 >how come we don't get more adaptations of things that are over a century old? Why do people want to see more adaptations of things that are still culturally relevant and haven't had their popularity fade as much over a whole fucking century? >>304125 >without any sort of regulation, I have no "right" to "copies" of my work. What? Of course you do. Nobody is stopping you from making as many copies as you want. You're being disingenuous. You keep acting like letting other people do things stops you from doing things. You keep acting like if someone else opens a convenience store, you can't also open a convenience store. Yes you can. You just have to compete by actually being better at what you set out to do. >>304223 >Anon, the entirety of the Star Wars Expanded Universe was created under said IP protection, and you're pretending it couldn't have been. No he's not. He's saying that more could have been created without IP protection. Everything that was made could still be made, and all the things that Lucasfilm and Disney stopped from being made could also have been made too. We'd simply have more. Your image is also a perfect example of why government "protection" is bad. It says it's because "their laws allow things," but it's not, it's because their laws selectively allow things and disallow others. >>304242 Dracula isn't the same as all vampires. He's a specific character in a specific story. >>304267 >I'm going to write a book, I want to be paid for it You think authors weren't paid before copyright laws? They were. People paid them to write it. That's still how authors are paid. Again, you're confusing authors with publishers.

>>304044 >>304045 Why are you niggers so goddamn obsessed with razorfist?
