[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 14 points 2 years ago (12 children) He's right. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 12 child comments replies: [+] finitebanjo@lemmy.world -18 points 2 years ago* (11 children) No, the very premise of that user's analogy is that he isn't profiting from it. If somebody invented hammering nails literally this year and a company came in selling it as a product without permission, then it would be comparable. It reads as if he failed to read my comment entirely but still replied with multiple paragraphs. The game development analogy is better, floating arrows about characters heads was actually patented, but it was widely criticized and it expired in 2019. Plus I already took offense to simple mechanisms and especially certain software and firmware solutions. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 11 child comments replies: [–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 12 points 2 years ago (10 children) A patient on hitting a nail with hammer is ridiculous if it's your framing or theirs. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 10 child comments replies: [+] finitebanjo@lemmy.world -17 points 2 years ago (9 children) Countless buildings would never be built if you didnt invent hammer and nails, being paid royalties for a few years by large businesses who make use of it seems pretty fair. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 9 child comments replies: [–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 7 points 2 years ago (8 children) You have absolutely zero knowledge of history, I'm embarrassed for you. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 8 child comments replies: [–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world -2 points 2 years ago* (7 children) We're very clearly not talking about history, we're talking about the ridiculous hypothetical of if Hammering Nails to build Houses was patented today. I can understand why you'd think that was fucking silly, my original response to it was "jfc this guy" permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 7 child comments replies: [–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (6 children) Yeah pretty much, that comment set the mood. I'm cool, I hope you are too. It is interesting as a thought experiment if very basic human improvements could have been shut out from other people using them. What if, for example, Plato was able to "copy right" his ideas. Or if any of the ideas from the Renaissance where prevented from being iterated on. Would we have the scientific method today? Edit: Electricity? Pfft have fun with only one person owning the right to use it for 175 years. Next to no improvements for almost two centuries. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world -2 points 2 years ago* (5 children) Again, people are not shut out from patented ideas.
