    You seem to be missing the point of IM GUIs. They are just intended to render the UI in a stateless way. If you try to use them in another way you'll find them awkward, of course. …

    Markets alone won't do shit of it's not profitable. That's why you need government regulations. Some things should not be driven by profit. Thinking otherwise is delusional.

    Can you provide some proof that "pirating" (I hate that word) had severely diminished sold copies? And I don't mean all those "studies" based on the false premise that downloaded r…

    Copyright isn't here to protect the creator, but the copyrights holder. The great extension of copyright (way beyond the artist life) is there so a few copies holders keep their IP…

    OT: Luckily for him, he studies at a public university so much likely he doesn't even need a student loan. Students shouldn't need loans. It's an aberration.
