Comment Well done. Time for copyright reform. (Score 2) 16

It is way past time for profit to be made from other things than the abused copyright system.

Newspapers and publishers should make their money from micro-payments for access to new IP, their old IP should quickly lose copyright and become free for everyone.

Copyright is a *privilege* we give to *creators* to encourage *creation*, not an endless money source for parasites to live off others' old creations.

Exactly.
Whereas you went on about "access to a licensed firearm".

Here are the figures for QUOTE "gun ownership rate GUNS/100"

USA: 120
Switzerland: 27
New Zealand: 26
Australia : 14

Yes, those are the same as the figures I quoted.

Comment Instead of doom-mongering, make money (Score 1) 22

All the doom-mongers posting these stories would surely make a better use of their time by investing in shorts on all these companies ?

For the record, I think the AI crash will come. Selfishly, I mainly hope it comes because Sam Altman is a cunt.

But the problem is when will it come ? : Tomorrow, within a year, within 3 years, in more than 3 years, never ?

"Switzerland in particular, given their high gun ownership"
"nor Australia and New Zealand which also have relatively high gun ownership rates."

Simply incorrect:

USA: 120 civilian firearms per person
Switzerland: 27
New Zealand: 26
Australia : 14
