I once witnessed a Belgian and a Franco-Canadian together mock someone from Paris for his accent.

I know, it’s hard to bring nuance to this. The current copyright system is completely fucked. I think we still need some sort of copyright, but one that expires after like 10 years after first publication. I would actually be fine with everything being used to train AI models, if AI wouldn’t require ungodly amounts of resources and the companies wouldn’t be owned by tech bro assholes. If it would belong to us all, be free to use and not burn down our world even quicker, AI would be fine.

If reviews from people paid to review is what you crave, you are part of the niche group. I do read reviews, but I only care about reviews from people who share my taste in books. Every other review is worthless to me. I don’t see why different thoughts would be helpful. Oh, they didn’t/did like it for reasons. Cool. That’s all fine, but why should I read that?

Fuuuck copyright.

I don’t like book reviews by professionals. The only reviews I trust are by two friends on Goodreads who I know have very similar tastes to mine.

These sites are losing domain names left and right at the moment. The fucking copyright mafia is spending a lot of effort at the moment.

OK, grandpa. I’ll roll you out onto the patio and bring you a blanket for your legs.

Können wir nicht einfach aufhören, Ökonomen, MBAs, BWLern und dergleichen zuzuhören? Die haben entweder keine Ahnung oder die falschen Prioritäten oder, oft genug, beides.

Yeah, exactly my thoughts. This article is so one-sided and negative, it reads like it was written by Disney. Disney is not even mentioned in an article about a media company gaining too much power, that’s laughable.

I just wanted to help because the headline really confused me. Then it took on a life of its own.

I mean, you don’t need to know what ESL means for my comment to be helpful. The helpful bit is in the second part without any confusing abbreviations.
