Lemmy is free. I can self host Lemmy on a raspberry pi for exactly 0€.
Dang, where can I get a free Raspberry Pi and internet connection? That sounds awesome!
The instance I use... Is also free. I donate because I choose to, but if my friend can't afford to donate they can still use the instance. Nobody is profiting from it.
This is exactly my point. It's like when people call it "free healthcare".
Do you think Lemmy is free? Your admin is paying, and trusting you to donate to help out.
Likewise.
The claim was that Ubisoft called piracy "theft". Have they done that, or not?
copyright is a type of intellectual property, an area of law distinct from that which covers robbery or theft, offenses related only to tangible property.
Every AAA game company's have been for 30 years and still currently are arguing this in courts all the time.
Are you sure about that? Because it isn't theft, it's copyright infringement.
their other line 'piracy is theft'.
Have they ever said that?
Don't use services that track all your activity down. It should be pretty obvious as to why.
This doesn't really apply here.
It's 1:4 but everytime the card is played a new set of 1:4 starts
Of course it does, or the odds wouldn't be 1 in 4...
If you flip a coin, you "start" a new set of 1 in 2 odds too -- that's what makes it always 50/50
That's nice. Just exposing your dishonesty. Move along.
My computer isn't free, nor is my internet connection, nor is my electricity.
When did I call Google searches "free"?
