Ilovethebomb,

There is a legal answer to the question, and the answer is yes, it would continue to be the same ship, at least according to Lloyds of London.

In philosophical terms, also the same boat. It has continued to exit as something we would recognise as a ship throughout, and has not been modified, merely repaired.

Ilovethebomb,

If you delete a sentence, and re type it, is it the same sentence? What about if you copy and paste it somewhere else in the article?

Ilovethebomb,

It would be a new boat, yes. The component parts are older, but it has existed as something we would consider a boat for a shorter amount of time.

Ilovethebomb,

I realize this won’t be a popular view, but I don’t think you should be able to use, and profit from, a character someone else created, regardless of how long ago they were created. The original work becoming public domain, sure, but write your own characters.

Ilovethebomb,

There’s a difference between getting inspiration from something, and downright stealing it.

Ilovethebomb,

I imagine saying those people are fictional characters would make some people angry.

Ilovethebomb,

Mostly seeing the appalling job some people have done adapting a former beloved character, or the inevitable NSFW adaptations.

Imagine someone writing a story where, for example, Christopher Robin kills someone, and profiting from it? Would you be happy having your childhood memories of reading Winnie the Pooh tainted like that?

Ilovethebomb,

The alphabet is free and open source.

Ilovethebomb,

Interesting angle.

Ilovethebomb,

Meaning you can freely reproduce the original work, but you cannot create a new piece of work using the original characters.

Meaning, in the case of Winnie the Pooh, the original books and associated works are free to be used and shared, but you could not create a new book or comic without the permission of the estate of AA milne.

Ilovethebomb,

I really don’t think this is a difficult concept to grasp, to be honest.

The original work becomes public domain, and can be freely reproduced.

The characters therein are, and remain, the property of the author’s estate, and cannot be used in new work without their permission.

We are already seeing this in the real world, where Disney cartoons are public domain, but the characters, having been used in consecutive works, cannot be used by anyone other than them.

This allows a published work to be used for generations to come, but doesn’t allow an author’s legacy to be tarnished by less than quality adaptations.

Ilovethebomb,

What’s your point here, exactly?

Ilovethebomb,

You’re the second person to say something like this. Suggesting the characters in the Bible are fictional will make some people very angry.

Ilovethebomb,

There would always be the option for an author, or their estate, to allow such a work.

Clearly labelling whether a work was by the original author is only fair, of course.

Ilovethebomb,

Who was it? What was their name?

Ilovethebomb,

Not having a more senior person to go to when you get stuck could be a problem.

Ilovethebomb,

Wut?

Ilovethebomb,

It’s a parody, not a genuine slogan.

Ilovethebomb,

I thought they shit in the woods.

Ilovethebomb,

Chat GPT, and the many other similar systems, are unable to conceive of something new or original, merely imitate what has already come before.

Students who use it to write essays are shooting themselves in the foot, because, chances are, they can’t think for themselves either.

Ilovethebomb,

Given that people quite frequently try and present AI generated content as real, I’d say this will be a huge problem in the future.

Ilovethebomb,

My experience with AI, and the absolute fucking dorks that talk endlessly about it, is that neither are capable of original thought.

It’s not the technology I don’t like, it’s the users.

Also, why so angery?

Ilovethebomb,

Lol.

Ilovethebomb,

We do have flying cars though.

Ilovethebomb,

What TF is meant to be happening here?

Ilovethebomb,

Comments like this are why I love this place.

Ilovethebomb,

This photo makes me feel like I’ve got something stuck in my teeth.

Ilovethebomb,

Boooo👎

I bet you eat it with ketchup too, you absolute animal.

Ilovethebomb,

I want to know if this can actually work now.

Ilovethebomb,

I suspect not many, the Supra has always been worth decent money.

Ilovethebomb,

I don’t think passenger comfort was a high priority when they designed and built the HMMWV, I don’t think this is a great plan.

Ilovethebomb,

I’m pretty sure that’s an H1, I.E the civilian variant. No way the seats are that plush on the military version.

Ilovethebomb,

Buy a Rolls Royce or a Range Rover instead.

Ilovethebomb,

It’s almost like those things are important somehow.

Of course losing your keys is a big deal, what absolute nonsense is this?

Ilovethebomb,

There is no form of currency that doesn’t sound absurd when you phrase it a certain way.

Ilovethebomb,

Mostly because hydro means water. Of course that would be confusing.

Ilovethebomb,

Not really, the whole point of a pipe bomb is for the reaction to happen as fast as possible. This is sub optimal for rocketry.

Ilovethebomb,

I imagine calling in an artillery strike would make you feel very powerful. Like a God doing a spot of smiting.

Ilovethebomb,

I want to see Russia try and build a tilt rotor now.

Ilovethebomb,

Using an existing engine from a fixed wing aircraft that can’t autorotate, meaning an engine failure anywhere other than forward cruise would be fatal.

Ilovethebomb,

Shooting at a fighter aircraft while in a parachute seems like a very bad idea to me, you’re in trouble if the pilot shoots back.

Ilovethebomb,

It wasn’t a war crime back then, of course.

Ilovethebomb,

That sounds more like using military aircraft to collect the vaccines than taking them by force.

Who's winning the war in Ukraine?

The media won’t give me great answers to this question and I think this I trust this community more, thus I want to know from you. Also, I have heard reports that Russia was winning the war, if that’s true, did the west miscalculate the situation by allowing diplomacy to take a backseat and allowing Ukraine to a large...

Ilovethebomb,

You sad sacks really are desperate for red team to win, aren’t you? You’ve been saying this for over a year.

Ilovethebomb,

I was hearing the opposite all this while.

From where? There are multiple, reasonably reputable maps available that show the lines, and regardless of who the map makers support, they have to be accurate because of how easily they can be proven wrong if they make false claims.

Besides, much like Vietnam, or the many wars in Afghanistan, victory won’t happen on the battlefield, it will happen when the invader finally gets tired of paying the price of war.

Ilovethebomb,

Hexbear user ranting about nazis, you mean.

Ilovethebomb,

Let me guess, can’t bring yourself to say Russia is winning?

Ilovethebomb,

Interesting. I know they’ve historically been close to Russia, I didn’t realise they still had so much support.
