This explanation is interesting. Thanks for sharing it. While reading it, I got the impression that the simulation is not fully quantum mechanical, but rather classical with select…

I'm saying that copyright is unjust. It violates fundamental individual freedoms of people like freedom of expression to achieve goals that do not justify that mean, and is therefo…

Copyright does not deserve voluntary submission anyways. It is an unjust and ever stricter becoming legal framework to give life support to an industry that is unwilling to adjust …

RetroShare was removed from Debian in the past. Anybody any clues why?

It is not stealing. It may be illegal, but it isn't stealing nor robbery. You may be violating the copyright law, but nobody is taken away any object and there is no threat of viol…
