People also shouldn't just be able to make money off of other people's creations without limits.

IMO, ideally we would implement a system of 'open licensing' where people could freely use others IP as long as they pay a public, standardized percent of revenue based on the usage.

It comes from the FFG Star wars RPG system and its method of creating multiple success/failure conditions. It's an entirely independent system to the light/dark side force mechanics.

That's fair if it's not solving a problem for you, but it does add something new that resonates with a lot of people (at least it did for me). I'm speaking from the Genesys side so I don't know how daggerheart handles it, but I absolutely loved it. I found it made skill checks more collaborative, my table would suggest ideas for how to interpret the roll, and having more to 'explain' got people more descriptive in how they talk about their actions. We went from 'I take a swing. Nope, that's a miss' to 'failure with advantage, ok I go in with my axe but I can't get through this guy's defenses. For my advantage, I want to hook this guys shield with my axe so the next attacker gets a boost die to hit'.

It does make checks more involved, but I prefer fewer, more impactful checks as a general rule anyway.

"Fan"

That's the part that precludes payment. Fan works legally have to be free, that's what makes it not copyright infringement.

That's pretty much exactly what I'm saying. If you offer software that requires outside servers to run, you should be legally obligated to release the code used to run the servers if you discontinue supporting that software. That doesn't make mmo's any different, just a minor change to how they handle end of life.

Yeah if you think most people are going to care or even know about this, you haven't been paying attention to the last 20 years.

Or people are used to this concept and accept it as normal instead of unethical behavior that should be illegal.

Why would people here care that much about this? This kind of material exists on any site that allows user submitted content, and the only solution is aggressive automated moderation, which winds up hurting everyday users. Would you prefer that anyone who uploads a song or podcast that names a drug be automatically removed and have to be manually approved?

These are low-effort scams to steal credit card numbers, it doesn't seem like any of these had an actual avenue to purchase drugs. They should be removed for sure, but this is hardly some wild breach of responsibility.

This has got to be machine printed right? They're no worse than Wizard's usual minis, but yeah they always suck. The biggest problem IMO is the sculpt, they look like they're made out of mud. I assume it has to do with the rubber they use. I don't know, I'm way too spoiled by printing my own to consider buying something that looks this bad.

Then you probably shouldn't waste so much of other people's time by claiming something didn't happen if you haven't even bothered to fucking check.

He very clearly salutes, turns around, and salutes again. Twice in a row, enthusiastically and perfectly executed.

If you haven't seen this, you didn't watch the inauguration.

I don't think you're on the right track here. There are definitely existing laws in most states regarding 'revenge porn', creating sexual media of minors, Photoshop porn, all kinds of things that are very similar to ai generated deep fakes. In some cases ai deepfakes fall under existing laws, but often they don't. Or, because of how the law is written, they exist in a legal grey area that will be argued in the courts for years.

Nowhere is anyone suggesting that making deepfakes should be prosecuted as rape, that's just complete nonsense. The question is, where do new laws need to be written, or laws need to be updated to make sure ai porn is treated the same as other forms of illegal use of someone's likeness to make porn.

Thank you for being one of the few people in this thread with any sense.
