For apartment complexes there's yelp/Google maps reviews.

Not before abolishing capitalism or you're just making things worse.

Disagree, without IP laws whoever has the most money can crush all competition. An example of this is how the first pump hand soap softsoap couldn't patent the hand pump design because it already existed so they just bought all the existing stock to prevent anyone from releasing a competing product.

If you get rid of IP laws you'll just further entrench the existing winners.

Write a good book? Without copyright, Penguin random house publishes an exact copy at a higher quality and sells a million copies while you sell a handful to discerning fans.

Build a quality product? Without trademark, proctor and gamble flood the market using your brand name and nobody can distinguish their products from yours even though their quality is much worse.

Invent something revolutionary? Without patents you have to keep your process a secret so you don't get copied. If you get hit by a bus your invention is now lost to society forever unless someone manages to reverse-engineee it.

Voidtools "Everything" is how we mimic a fraction of your power thank-you-very-much.

The leak didn't include phone numbers or emails but I'm sure there will be attempts at spear phishing businesses since they can figure out the business name from the physical address.

The creators of the games also have also said it's just a thumbs up and not the mushroom cloud thing.

I actually dont understand why we not do something drastic. I mean like ban cars and planes.

Talk so some other people about your idea and you'll understand why we don't.

Because blocking an instance only blocks their communities from showing up in your All feed, it doesn't block comments.

This comic is probably based on the movie which changed it so that he was adopted and an actual mouse. It somehow makes even less sense than the original story.

the_artic_one ,

A boy who looks like a mouse is magical realism, you can assume the setting is like the real world except for this one-off magical event. A talking mouse is fantasy because now you're in a setting where all mice can talk if you teach them how which creates a bunch of plot holes including the comic is poking fun at.

Yes, fanart is almost certainly copyright infringement unless the copyright holder grants a license. Many companies have an official license for non-commercial fanart and generally nobody cares about it but if someone really wanted to they could absolutely file takedown requests against all fanart of their work.

You just opened a can of worms

The thesis of this comic is "women have reasons to be afraid of some men". Responding to that with "not all men are bad" is a straw man, it's responding to an argument that nobody actually made.

Five guys is a $15 burger with no sides place not a $20 burger with no sides place.

When my face gets sweaty, my glasses will sometimes slip off without me feeling it which usually means I don't catch them before they hit the floor. I could see someone pulling something out of the oven in a rush and not noticing that their glasses came off. Particularly if there was a bunch of steam or smoke and they closed their eyes.
