  • Medical experts: Biden needs to be evaluated for Parkinson's
    www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com Medical experts: Biden needs to be evaluated for Parkinson's - Lawyers, Guns & Money

    Yet more examples of how copyright destroys culture rather than driving it
  • If we did ever get away from copyright we'd have a very different funding model for artistic creation. More patronage, patreon, and tipping based and less payment per sale. Artists, or groups of artists, would create and share their work, and people would direct money towards those they enjoyed the most. Physical copies of anything would decline in importance with all art available for free download, and would be sold and costed more based on the effort needed to manufacture that physical object than anything to do with the original creator or creators.

    TIL states that passed laws allowing a married person to seek a divorce without the consent of their spouse saw female suicide decline by 20 percent
  • Traditionally both parties had to agree to get divorced if there had not been some "grounds" for the divorce that could be proved in court. That's why the classic business for old timey private detectives was proving that their client's spouse was committing adultery in order to legally justify a divorce.
