Bethesda wants to sell mods for skyrim and fallout 4 for real money
>>735564430
That's what people get for playing closed-source games.
>>735565064
It's to make the modders money....
>>735565139
No it's not, retard. Modders could already sell mods. And even then, why play closed-source games?
>>735565353
If you have to support the things you say with insults it makes you look bad.
Closed-source games? Hmm, maybe you should explain to me first what you define that as and why it's bad.

Closed source software means software you can't compile or modify.
>>735565655
Hey, if it makes you feel better to think that's justification then good for you :)
So tell me why that's bad, I'm not trying to act an idiot. Just want to know what you think about it.
>>735565803
Imagine if you had a lego set, but some of the legos were illegal for you to view. You could only legally use those legos blindfolded: that's what being unable to read source code is like.
Now imagine having some legos where it's illegal to take two pieces apart: that's what not being able to modify source code is like.
And in general, the NSA and CIA like closed-source code because it means they can put in backdoors and no one will know.
>>735566102
That's why you get Mega Bloks instead, they have better minifigs and licenses.
>>735566323
wwwww
any requests?
>>735566102
I have to admit, I really admire that analogy. I think it lacks depth though.
A game is not Lego. Legos are the literal building blocks that you create out of whereas a finished game has all the pieces in place. What you have is the finished result there for you to use and experience rather than create the experience on your own as you would with Lego.
The main reason the source is protected is usually because developers don't want you to see their code because if you can see if you can duplicate it. If you can duplicate it you can create a knock off with ease. Studios pour an enormous amount of man hours and money into these games and as much as we can hate them for it not all game developers can run on passion alone.
You might feel differently if say you created a successful game and then you leave it open source because you want to see it improved and evolve in the community only to find someone else has created a near mirror and is selling it for other regions. This doesn't even take into account brand protection which as you know is very important for any company wishing to build a reputation to sell games.
Open source projects are always good things to have, but this is an argument like any. To have only one or the other is probably not the correct decision. Who are we to believe ourselves the arbiters?
Your thoughts?

>a game is not Lego
Unless it's a Lego game. Or Minecraft. Or the inevitable Lego Minecraft game. Or Minecraft Lego game, either way it's stupid as hell.
Oh, yeah I don't really have any comments on the rest, here's some more Mega Bloks (now Mega Construx) I guess.
>>735567442
Yes! Your picture demonstrates my point. That circumstance was created by the shall we call it "player" of the lego and not the lego. In this case the player creates the game.
Minecraft is a tricky one. It would be ignorant of us to compare Minecraft to Lego. That ignores the fact that the game is more than putting blocks together. There is a lot of that depending on who you talk to though.... ;)
Yo can we get some horse in here?
Any more cumshot or creampie pics? Those are my favorite
>>735567864
>>735567765
Lego is building stuff and then playing with it. Minecraft is building stuff and then playing with it. Oversimplification perhaps but accurate enough, especially now that the two have combined and Minecraft Lego is a thing.
I enjoy Lego as much as Mega, just dislike some of their decisions of late.
>>735567964
Thanks. Pussy creampies are better imo
>>735567090
>Legos are the literal building blocks
But that's all code is.
>protected
Protected has a positive connotation. Remember, programs are open-source by default: making something closed-source actually takes time, money, and effort.
>you can duplicate it
This is a good thing.
>not all game developers can run on passion alone.
That's fine. All the good developers seem to be able to, though.
>You might feel differently if say you created a successful game and then you leave it open source because you want to see it improved and evolve in the community only to find someone else has created a near mirror and is selling it for other regions.
I'd simply be disappointed in the capitalist behavior, not for that they used the code freely.
>To have only one or the other is probably not the correct decision.
Eh, I believe in absolute freedom, that's the sort of person I am. Intellectual property is inherently flawed anyway.
>Who are we to believe ourselves the arbiters?
I do get this point though.
BUT
To make something closed-source is to make yourself the arbiter of what people can do with it. How can anyone ever claim to know a user's needs better than the user himself?
you want it as shes getting creamed, or with the cum flowing out of her after they're done?

well tbh im not a big fan of horses so i dont have many horse pics, ill look in the folder and see what i can find. also, did you mean you like the cream pie or the bondage?
>>735568234
I suppose in a sense yes code can be building blocks, but this is again a massive over-simplication.
I don't think you're correct in assuming programs are open source by default. Scripts maybe but most programs are built in environments where that is the only place that the program can run before a protected compiled version is output. Making them closed source.
Duplication of code is a bad thing if you're a company that spent money creating it only for someone to duplicate it for free. This is that thing called context. Of course duplication is good, but in this context where a company stands to lose money on it it's a bad thing.
Most of the good ones can, if they had to find another way to feed themselves then they would and that would be wasted talent.
You'd be more than disappointed if you went broke because someone stole your code and lime light :/
>>735569530
Freedom? Intellectual property is built on individual freedom. It gives the individual rights to something that they created. It's part of our western philiosphy and all that.
It it important that the user can get what they want out of a product but not their right to dictate it if they didn't create said product. I'm speaking in a legal sense.
You would like the Chinese style of dealing with property if you believe in freedom in this sense. Over there you can't own land, as in you can walk onto any land and do whatever as long as it's not a military base or something. People have no sense of communal land there. They also have very skim IP laws. You can take something someone has made and use it to your own needs such as software or a car etc.
These things do present their own problems howveer. As they have no sense of owning land or communal spaces they don;'t maintain any of their buildings or spaces of land. They get built and within 3 years they are a wreck. Their high rise flats look great on the inside (in their homes) but the place is usually a tip.
>>735569558
Commies have no sense of communal land? Ikr The irony is not lost on me.
You can also copy each others answers on tests there. They believe you should emulate the best. So they find the best and smartest person and copy them. Exactly. You can pass tests in school and University in China easily doing this and never learning anything.
So no IP does have negative impacts that I'd never thought of before looking into it.
It creates an atmosphere where everyone is very good at tasks like programming and maths but not very creative because they are used to emulating not innovating. This can be seen in real world examples such as the rise of the car manufacturing industry in Japan in the 60, and 70s and it's decline in the 80s and 90s.
Their car industry got so powerful it nearly killed Europe's because it was so efficient. But the cars they made were never different, never a step forward. They took our cars and made better versions. So when they surpassed ours they had nothing to build on and the European manufacturers recovered as Japan's ran out of ideas and steam.
This is also partly responsible for the whole Asians good at maths but that's a lot to do with their work ethic more than anything else.
Anyway, digressing....
Why do you think IP laws are bad? Or is it simply the idea you take issue with?
>>735569530
No, a program exists by default as written code: the binary is created later. The effort needed to distribute binaries that actually work on other computers is far greater than the effort needed to just release code.
Money is inherently bad though. It's incompatible with anarchism.
>You'd be more than disappointed if you went broke because someone stole your code and lime light :/
No, I hate money. I don't like having it.

No, intellectual property is built on the idea that integers can be copyrighted, which is insane.

Nah, this is something different, Argos having a discussion with Martin about IPs and shit, but I know what may happen next.

Ooh, Anarchism, I thought some of the things you've been saying were eluding to that.
I wana hear about why you like it :)
Without the necessary binaries code cannot be interpreted by a machine in any meaningful way.
It's like having a key with no lock to use an over simplified analogy :p
>>735569798
IP goes further back than that, it's birth might be in our law but it's influences hearken as far back as the Greeks. That's what I was trying to get across.

>Without the necessary binaries code cannot be interpreted by a machine in any meaningful way.
Well yeah, that's why every computer has a compiler. You also simplify: interpreters exist for many languages.
Binaries are fine to create, but they're very limited compared to actually releasing code. Even if a game is released closed source for GNU/Linux on AMD64, it won't work on NetBSD on MIPS.
I like anarchism since I like happiness and freedom. I'm tired of people having power over me and wrecking my life. If I was free I'd be so productive and do so many things, and it'd actually benefit other people for me to be that productive, along with benefiting me.
>IP goes further back than that, it's birth might be in our law but it's influences hearken as far back as the Greeks. That's what I was trying to get across.
Eh, applying property law to intangible things like information itself still is flawed, even before you realise all information can be expressed in some form as an integer.
>We get so mired in the discussion that we end up rage fuggin?
I don't feel angry, but sure, when and where?
