fullroundaction posted:In theory, how would copyright/IP/whatever law deal with stuff like murals or all of this BAYC-alike poo poo popping up everywhere since most of it isn’t a 1:1 pixel reproduction? Toilet Terror posted:There's a pretty decent possibility that procedurally-generated images aren't even copyright-able at all. Courts have generally found that only humans can create art, and I don't think an algorithmically generated bored ape would meet that threshold.

It's been brought up before, but it's likely that the individual components, as drawn by artists, are copywriteable, but the specific combinantion that makes, say, Bored Ape 420 isn't as a whole.

That advert near the end of the video was such a bad idea, imo.

quote:Ripps has publicly admitted that the current state of BAYC appears at odds with its alleged “nazi origins.” In a previous Twitter Space with OKHotshot, Ripps said in a recent interview that BAYC’s attempt to walk back its Nazi origins is similar to “black people reclaiming the n-word” and its “loving genius.”

Collateral Damage posted:I'm convinced all the top people in the fashion industry meet up every now and then, do a ton of drugs and just go "Right, what kind of absolutely ridiculous poo poo can we trick people into wearing this time?" The lead designer of Balenciaga, Demna Gvasalia, is basically a fashion troll and specifically releases stuff like this to wind people up. He started it with Vetements and leaned hard into it when people would post "omg who would wear this poo poo" followed by Instagram influencers wearing it as a meme to get eyeballs on their posts. It's for people who want to be "in on the joke" where the punchline is $600 Crocs, it absolutely doesn't make sense but I don't think fashion ever has made sense.

The long and the short of it is that the real test is in how someone reacts to you pointing out that their sick skull with two awesome lightning bolts and a hindu good luck charm is kinda problematic. If they go "oh poo poo, wow, ok, yeah I had no idea holy gently caress I'm going to change that right now" then they're probably OK. I mean, probably an idiot for not knowing that it's not just a generic sick nasty skull design but whatever. Worst case they knew what they were doing and backed down when you confronted them. If they go "nuh uh, the cheekbones of MY skull are ever so slightly different and the lightning bolts are angled five degrees differently therefore. . . " they're a shithead trying to make excuses and throw up a smokescreen.

A org called “Yuga Labs” claims they’re not nazis. “Yuga” is a term from Hindu cosmology that was picked up by modern neo-nazis via the nutty (even by nazi standards) fringe concept of “esoteric Hitlerism”. These ideas were created by a Franco-Grecian nazi who became convinced that Hitler had been an avatar of the god Vishnu and had ushered in the “Kali Yuga”, a phase of the never ending universal cycle of creation and destruction. The Kali Yuga is viewed as a sort of nazi equivalent of the Christian doctrine of tribulation. Once the current degenerate era (Yuga) ends the old world will be destroyed and the new, racially pure world be born from it’s ashes But no they’re not nazis

Hey look, two US senators put up a Github repo with a proposed new Bitcoin bill. Problem here is that Github is open source, anyone can contribute. There's a few legitimate contributions, but the vast majority is trolls. It's amazing, go check out the 'issues' and 'pull requests' pages: Lummis-Gillibrand Responsible Financial Innovation Act (S. 4356)
