These companies do not make profit in paper but have already made millions for others.

It's all smoke and mirrors

... To the surprise of absolutely nobody

Actually I have a question and I admit knowing nothing of the legal framework here but...

Isn't it absolutely ridiculous that a not-for-profit entity can exists solely for the purpose of developing a closed-source piece of software, demand to train it for free off copyrighted material, just to switch to a for-profit entity??

Sound 100% like tax avoidance. Like me registering a charity so I can throw a mega concert/party privately, secure preferencial treatment on supplies, get discounts on artists or even free performance and then switch to for profit as I start selling tickets

Nothing here is about you bud... Self centered much?

I'll just stop feeding the attention hungry hippo

Having more experience than you in a topic does not mean projection

Now, Apple might argue that they’re being environmentally conscious by reducing packaging waste. That’s a fair point,

It isn't... That's like not flushing the toilet in a public bathroom to "save water"

Oh please, there are hundreds if not thousands of stories about suicide out there and they don't have warnings

Stop being so overly cynic, trust me, it's not as edgy as you think it is

Hopefully it's because you'd never need one

By that low bar then, there is nothing special in the video either. It's not like journalists own the only cameras and access to the internet and accidentally let Miller spew vitriol

Maga mouths can always do that freely, openly and unchallenged on their own. The fact that a simple question made Miller lose his shit and throw a tantrum may not disuade the morons but it definitely is not a win either

Disney built its entire empire on existing/public domain stories. Cinderella, Little Mermaid, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Beauty and the Beast, Robin Hood. The list goes on. Hell even Aladdin is largely located from Middle Eastern fairy tales.

Absolutely, but at least back then they truly added value by tweaking the stories (those original stories are mostly horror stories to our hears) and providing great animation. Nowadays, they buy great IPs and just ruin them; not only they are not adding any value, they are actively taking value away from them

THAT is likely... but even then I am still concerned that, once the Democrats hopefully win, they'll be all "let bygones be bygones" AGAIN
