  • In the event there is one, I expect nothing less than Senator George Lang to be right there on the front lines leading the charge.

    Last Civil war took 2% of the entire US population with it. And that was during muskets and cannons. So I’m pretty sure Senator George Lang wouldn’t mind being one of the 7 million people (if we’re that lucky to keep that number that low) that a second Civil War would inevitably kill.

    All these blow hards cry war, but would start running with shit in their pants when the shelling starts. And looking at the turkey Senator George Lang is, I doubt man could run more than ten feet before being winded. A better title would be “Poster child for heart disease coward wouldn’t mind if a lot of other people killed each other so he could feel better about being unable to see his cornichon sized penis.”

    Fuck this cunt and any other like him that call for war and clearly have zero intent or ability to actually fight in one. If you aren’t wanting peace in your own country, you should see your dumb ass out.





  • you cannot copyright a drawn apple with a piece bitten off

    That’s correct, you can not do such. Apple does not litigate its logo with copyright but in trademark disputes. Prepear and Georette are examples of this.

    You too can create a logo of an apple with a piece bitten off. It’s up to a court to decide if it’s coming too close to the Apple trademark, most people want to just avoid that and settle amicably, but if you’ve got to the pocket change to fight it in court, you can argue that your bitten off apple isn’t a trademark infringement.

    If you find a company that isn’t keen to defend their logo, you can totally get away with it. Apple is on the other end of the spectrum of being someone who will protect their trademarks to the bitter end. Jack Daniels and Disney are two more examples of companies that will legally punch a five dollar start up into a bloody mass over trademarks.



  • Things to note:

    • The Court heard the case en panel. Only three judges heard the case. Plaintiff has asked the case to be reheard en banc, with all the judges present.
    • The Court did not rule on merit. The ban was not ruled Constitutional. Instead the case was ruled on procedure in that Plaintiff had no standing.
    • The 6th District is 6-10 Judges appointed by Democrats vs Judges appointed by Republicans. Of the ten Republican Judges, six are from Trump specifically.
    • The United States District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee case is still on-going. There the Judge has ruled a temporary injunction on the law.







  • The reason for that is that you have to look at this as if you’re some greedy corporate bastard.

    A robot butler costs money to build and if it doesn’t pan out, they’re on the hook for the cost. Firing people saves money right now, and if generative art doesn’t pan out, they can hire new employees that will work for less.

    AI is just the latest craze to justify what these greedy bastards do all the time. The way they’re fucking us is new, but the act of fucking us is as old as dirt.
