109 (b)(1)(A) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (a), unless authorized by the owners of copyright in the sound recording or the owner of copyright in a computer program (including any tape, disk, or other medium embodying such program), and in the case of a sound recording in the musical works embodied therein, neither the owner of a particular phonorecord nor any person in possession of a particular copy of a computer program (including any tape, disk, or other medium embodying such program), may, for the purposes of direct or indirect commercial advantage, dispose of, or authorize the disposal of, the possession of that phonorecord or computer program (including any tape, disk, or other medium embodying such program) by rental, lease, or lending, or by any other act or practice in the nature of rental, lease, or lending. Nothing in the preceding sentence shall apply to the rental, lease, or lending of a phonorecord for nonprofit purposes by a nonprofit library or nonprofit educational institution. The transfer of possession of a lawfully made copy of a computer program by a nonprofit educational institution to another nonprofit educational institution or to faculty, staff, and students does not constitute rental, lease, or lending for direct or indirect commercial purposes under this subsection.

1)Giving a copy to a friend is an indirect commercial advantage as they are not paying the license fee the copyright holder requires for distribution.

2)You aren’t a nonprofit library or educational institution so you don’t get a free pass to lend.

Citation needed. Nonprofit educational uses, sure. But giving your friend a copy of a video game is certainly not fair use.

You are for sure violating the copyright law by doing so. You have the right to make backups for personal archival but not to distribute. The second you share with someone else you are breaking copyright law.

Have you actually ever used Ada? It’s like programming with handcuffs on.

Fucknugget is a good surprisingly used term

My grandma is over 100 and still licks the plate clean after eating. Things like that get ingrained with you

You are correct. Technically a snapshot, but unmodified files are not duplicated from the previous. Imho that is one of the key things to understand about how git works ( and why rebasing and branch manipulation works so well)

To piggyback, the true main difference is svn stores commits as snapshots and git commits are deltas from previous. This is why git is depicted as a tree since it’s inherently a node-based structure.

I feel like a SOCOM revival is desperately wanted by the community, but the cost / earnings ratio isn’t good enough. They really mean “Wish we had some IP characters we could make a hero shooter with”

Inflation ate it all. $60 in 2005 would be almost $100 now. Hell even from 2015, $60 would be $80 scaled for inflation.

Right: Women are the only thing in their world 🌍

Key word reported

Might sound odd, but I loved Dark Arena. Basically a Quake-esque FPS but for the GBA.

Just to parrot you with an example, which would you prefer? A half pound of chicken breast or two apples and a banana? Guarantee you the chicken breast is gonna leave you better off on the whole than the fruits.

“An offender could refuse to get the surgery, but would then be sentenced to three to five years of an additional prison sentence without the possibility of getting out early.”

It’s elective in the rare heinous cases it would be applied in.

This is why playing a randomizer is so damn fun. Every cave/catacomb/ruin can have “the” item! Makes exploration fun again.

Battle Chasers: Nightwar

Runs pretty well on the deck and the turn based-ness of combat lends well to pick up and play

Fun fact, there’s an advanced dev option on the steam deck to not power limit the WiFi card and it downloads 5-10x faster if you disable the power savings in my experience

I think you are conflating performance of economic models with the study of economic systems. Economics is literally just the study of a real phenomenon that occurs in the world. It’s a valid study to try and understand why it operates the way it does.
