Dicks are some of my favorite public art though. Right up there with tits and ass.

Wasn't Haaretz already accused by the Israeli government of being un-patriotic and even anti-semitic? Here's hoping the article is more gloves off than the title implies.

The "where" I was referring to was, yes, by jurisdiction, but also roads versus trails, and public vs private property.

Depends where you ride, iirc

I mean sure, but the things people are prone to stealing physically, when they wouldn't otherwise but for price, tend to be those they must have just to live. That's not the sort of consumption we can ethically reduce.

I think the rich are more prone to buying new items. Eventually the prices of used items will rise as a result of demand, but not right away. No one needs a new game console, and few could not meet their needs with a used PC or laptop.

Most in the US already have all of the above, but sure, this disproportionally "hurts" the poor.

The comment I responded to was regarding climate change and resource consumption, and piracy's "impact" on them, so ...

Where the hell have you been? Even I've already heard about this tyranical oligarch. Haiti has no effective government, and this fascist is largely to blame.

Nope. Climate change is a pollution issue. Reducing consumption can reduce pollution, but paying or not paying for a digital copy of something has effectively zero cost in the form of natural resources or pollution.

Californians are the reasons I left California. Just like Americans are the reason I want to leave this country more and more each day of my life, but still, nothing about that first issue has changed for the better since I left.

Seriously, where are the stop-blocks, and why is that curb so low?

Silver Lining. Fuck Consoles. Nothing that powerful should have most of its capabilities locked behind DRM, Licensing, and Walled Gardens.
