I guess they antagonize anyone that has moderate exposure using their IP

In some countries copyright law says that if you let people use your copyrighted material with little to no impediment then you cannot suddenly request whoever is using your material to stop

Let's say that Nintendo allows fans to make fan made Mario games for 5 years. Then they suddenly sue everyone and say "hey you have to pay for copyright or shutdown". A judge can decide that since they didn't enforce their copyright for some time they cannot sue people that are using their IP.

From a legal perspective the act of policing your own copyrighted material is the company's responsibility. This law prevents companies from relaxing their copyright claims for years (essentially allowing people to use it) and then suing everyone for using their IP. In other words Just let everyone use it, then sue them. The law is there to prevent that

Nintendo is likely super strict because "let people use your copyrighted material with little to no impediment" has room for interpretation in a court room. So they go to the conservative side and shut down everyone. Also consider that they're right next to China. The piracy capital of the world. It's not a surprise they're scared about their copyright.

I'm not saying that what they're doing is right. It's not. But I see where it comes from.

Nah I'm sure he got some joke proposals from people that are actually attracted to his eccentric dress code

I mean, he does look pretty sharp. It's just kind of silly at the same time

What's funny is that he sort of bragged about these joke proposals to the article

I guess this is targeting landlords that just live off the rent income and/or own multiple houses

You could argue that Landlords who only live off rent money are contributing nothing to society while still having a considerable income.

In Amsterdam for example, if you have 1 property in the state you're allowed to rent normally, but from the 2nd property on you can only make your house available for affordable rent programs (for refugees, low income families etc)

Which is cool cause it discourages people to buy multiple houses and live off rent

I could be wrong but I can see too much detail consistency to be AI generated. Perhaps it's AI + Photoshop.

I definitely can see one of the vertical wooden beams disappear behind the right elbow, it's subtle but it looks like someone erased a small part of the beam where it touches the elbow

There is a slim shadow cast by the chair on the wooden floor, on the right side of it's silhouette. This feels very real. DSLR cameras can actually produce this effect tue to the few centimeters of distance from the flash source and the camera sensor

But I feel like the same kind of shadow cast by the animal on the chair has a less real feel. Something about the mostly consistent thicnes of the shadow cast by the animal seems off to me, especially on the left side of the frame where this effect sound be reduced. So I think the chair and deck could be real, and the animal is likely edited.

The smoke looks fake to me. There is a large cloud of smoke coming from the direction of the animal's wrist and not from the cigarette. It also looks like it's too much smoke to realistically come from an idle cigarette

The animal is either a really good prop or really good Photoshop skills.

I'd say most likely it's AI + Photoshop. But it could also be just really good AI.

Truly disastrous. And hopefully a serious wake up call for Europe. Inconceivably sad that many Ukranians died and will die as a result of this stupid political game that delayed funding for the most critical conflict of the 21st century.

Seemingly anything is leverage for US politicians to discuss MeXiCo and GuNs!

Not even a potential conflict with their arch enemy "the commies" can focus them away from fearmongering internal affairs

Great to know that you can recognize your imperfections. I'm sure you have a good character. And i'm glad you're feeling better. Cheers!
