Pablo Bluth posted:They almost certainly have arrested people who were generating the streams (fpr profit) and not those watching them, The only time I can think of it coming up was a sort of hybrid example seen below. https://www.dailypost.co.uk/news/uk-world-news/joshua-boxing-facebook-sky-klitschko-14127413 (Basically the guy got an illegal stream of a boxing match. But his drunk mate started livestreaming the illegal stream.) Now that is such a fringe case that it can be judged on it's own merits. There is an interesting legal debate about if streaming actually meets the legal definition of theft. My understanding is that under Irish law streaming (but not file downloading) doesn't meet the requirements as you can't be shown that you intended to deprive the (copyright) owner of their product. But due to some change in English law (the exact change I'm not aware what it is), streaming would be considered theft.

Yeah I think it says more about the brains of the adults that they hear a kid wanting to be a dinosaur and have an existential crisis about it.

OwlFancier posted:Yeah I think it says more about the brains of the adults that they hear a kid wanting to be a dinosaur and have an existential crisis about it. I think there's a part of them that thinks if they do respect trans people's entities then they'll be mocked for having been 'tricked,' which is further reinforced by their endless tweets 'correcting' trans people's gender on twitter. Like I think the existential crisis comes from that fear that they are being 'forced' to call the kid a cat/ dinosaur and other people will laugh at them for being weak and forced to do it; therefore anyone who does it is weak and being forced and so they must be laughed at. And then they get defensive and butthurt because mean trans activists made fun of them on twitter, and made them look like the bad guys.

NORMAN! The school children are identifying as cormorants now Norman! One of them is identifying as Nibiru, the hypothetical planet that could destroy the housing market! No I know none of it's real Norman but what if it was, what if it was like when Milli Vanilli turned all the white children black. No it isn't racialist to say that Norman, David Starkey said it on the news, and he's a historian!

Turns out that no-one was identifying as a cat, when one student defended gender identity another student said "if you identify as a cat or a carrot you are insane". https://twitter.com/Otto_English/status/1671844313607593985?t=C5wzUfX6ncE3et7yl9GdaQ&s=19 Transphobes are stupid lying dipshits, who knew.

Bobby Deluxe posted:This is just my own half-formed theory, but I'm starting to think it's similar to how a lot of the transphobes act. I think the transphobe can't understand or relate to the idea of someone's identity being different to what the transphobe has ingrained as 'normal' or 'acceptable' in their mind, and instead of accepting the new idea of identity they've been presented with, they see it as an attempt to trick them, and think it's big and clever to point out they will not be fooled. I can't say I really understand it at all to be honest. Like what difference does it make to me if a kid wants to be a cat? Other people's identities are like, a them thing. It's as irrelevant to me as what colour underpants they're wearing. The only way I need to interact with it at all is that we have a thing where we're sort of expected to guess what words to use to describe a person by what they're wearing which, like, the solution there is figuring out new social habits to make that work, and maybe that expectation is just kind of dumb anyway. To have a complete loving meltdown like these people do over one particular social custom being shown to be kinda crap unless everyone dresses one of two ways which is just stupid even if everyone is the gender they were assigned at birth, I don't get it. There is obviously something so hosed with their brains that I don't have any credible explanation for why they're like that. They definitely seem horribly insecure about some social thing, so yeah you might be onto something with the whole "everyone will laugh at me for going along with it" angle but just... how do you loving live like that for long enough to make it to fortysomething when you have your meltdown in the papers about it? Unless you're literally a time travelling victorian aristocrat or something and spend three hours every morning tying your tie in the appropriate knot for that day in the social calendar lest you be snubbed in the gentleman's club... Like nobody IRL actually lives like that nowadays? Or is this the bourgeois morality I have heard so much about? Rich people are just like that because they don't have the necessity of getting along with people.

When I was in my 30s I wanted to be Xena Warrior Princess but sadly my knee was knackered from a motorcycle injury so I couldn't do the high-kicking moves. Also didn't look particularly fetching in the leather corset outfit.

OwlFancier posted:Or is this the bourgeois morality I have heard so much about? Rich people are just like that because they don't have the necessity of getting along with people. That involves by necessity focusing on the family (while donating to Focus on the Family) and believing in whatever dark forces are today's enemy, not because you necessarily internally believe them, but because they reify your status within the hierarchy of the community. This kinda ties into the idea that under patriarchy, you're the property of everyone above you, in exchange for owning everyone below you, which is of course important also for small business tyranny. People just being able to identify out of their place in the natural order is a horrorshow as far as these people are concerned, because it ruins the whole thing. smellmycheese posted:https://twitter.com/adambienkov/status/1671876256281903105?s=46&t=m_nNbkNoHG4lLitcpyHReg

Guavanaut posted:People just being able to identify out of their place in the natural order is a horrorshow as far as these people are concerned, because it ruins the whole thing. I guess the rub here is that you can't do this, because the "natural order" will be imposed on you by society whether you want it or not. Although yes alternative identities usually come with accompanying "micro societies" I guess I'd call them, like LGBT groups who will pointedly not be a dickhead to you and probably also generally be a lot more open to anarchic ideas about interpersonal relationships overall. And you can, especially with the internet and age demographics/attitudes to lgbt rights, spend quite a lot of time socializing predominantly with people in these little utopian socities, rather than the older and more hegemonic ones that are hostile to them. So the real threat is people wanting to make a better society that might supercede the old one that the shitheads are attached to, and the individual people pushing the boundaries of personal identity are just the easist targets.

Yeah I was reading about different ways it could go if there was a breach in the vessel and it implodes apparently the pressure of the water at great depth will slice you in half. Apparently happened to a Russian submariner. Can't find link now. Let alone that Byford Dolphin incident mentioned previously ITT. Re the debris field. I assume they have detail on the preexisting field? I visited the Titanic expo in Belfast a couple of years ago and seemed well mapped.

Imagine those kid's brains never actually progressed intellectually and now they have a platform. That's really all there is to it.
