If they start making watching media content a dangerous and hostile environment where you're not sure if what you're watching is illegal or not, people are just going to move away from said media and find some other form of entertainment.
They're literally just shooting themselves in the foot with these laws.
No, you clearly don't understand and neither do the people who voted this Insightful.
Showing it in a non-sanitized version is only giving them exactly what they want. You're validating their viewpoint that the people of the West are nothing but vicarious bastards who should cower in fear at what this regime is doing, or worst, demand action that usually doesn't even lead to the destruction of the original culprits and the harming of many an innocent person.
That news channels would show any part of this kind of content is appalling. Its nothing but a sick tool to push a sicker agenda. Nobody should be exposed to that level of violence and anyone producing such content needs to be silently dismissed, as to not validate their ideas and provoke even more violence.
There's more to it than a lack of political willpower. Nobody, short of the mentally sick, enjoy what's going on. It's just much more complex than a simple lack of willpower to do something.
They're probably too short-sighted and assume that this lack of talent will result in the only remaining talent asking obscene amounts of money (obscene to the bankers, that is). You're right, though. That is the solution they need to use, it's just not obvious to people who don't do software. That problem isn't singular to banking either.
No, it is most definitely a sport. Just because you don't agree doesn't make it not a sport. The reason sponsors and cheerleaders(?... man, I miss the Brood War days) have gotten seriously into it is because it shows potential (doesn't always mean it has any) to be just as big as conventional sports and therefore, highly profitable.
However from my personal perspective, I love (that's a serious understatement) driving around and just enjoying the world around me. Around here, it's always been high volumes of the following vehicles : - Civics - F150s - Sierras/Silverados - RAMs (Not the kind you put in your PC)
VWs in general were fairly common, but not to the tune that they are today. I've seen more GTIs in the past couple years than my entire years in high school, and those are hard not to notice, I think they look pretty slick, actually!
To keep this conversation rolling (hah. hah.), I don't think its people going out of their way to buy cars with a higher pollution output. My good friend recently bought herself a new VW, because well, she's used to them and the service was far above-average.
Usually when people think about the impact their purchase has on the environment (and they only do because the media tells them to), the vast majority will resolve that with a "well, what real difference am I going to make anyways?" and then gravitate towards the more personal reasons to buy X from Y company, like good service for example.
Really, I can't blame that method of thinking. If something is so truly damning to the environment, it should be handled at a much higher level than an individual's though process while making a purchase.

The whole point is to protect criminals. Who do you think the people lobbying for these laws are?

Hey what do I know though, right?
But dude, GLOBAL WARMING.

Holy fuck, this, so many times over.
Did you say bacon?
There's no way an honest group of people like the NSA would ever do such a thing!
Hey hey hey! I'm a very capable programmer, sir!
Then what? You just stare blankly at your monitor? I don't think your manager would appreciate that.

Wrote this article with a big smile on his face, silently whispering "hahaha! I'm really going to piss off those stupid slashdotters today!"
The mammoth was actually slain because it had infringed on a copyright agreement.
No, he's dead serious.
Thank you. That was very insightful!
I also heard the later was secretly funded by an unknown guild of funeral home owners.
I thought it was "kindly do needful" ?
I swear I had to look it up a couple times and it still catches me off guard.
Not too bad at all. My hat off to you sir.
Humans! Not talking racooons; fucking humans!
Too soon man, too soon.

No.
Nevermind gaming competitions, go outside and enjoy some goddamned sunlight!

I'm really glad the summary took the time to specify that AI was short for Artificial Intelligence, I had no idea!

That's an interesting idea.

I was drunk. I send you many apologies.
