109 (b)(1)(A) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (a), unless authorized by the owners of copyright in the sound recording or the owner of copyright in a computer program (including any tape, disk, or other medium embodying such program), and in the case of a sound recording in the musical works embodied therein, neither the owner of a particular phonorecord nor any person in possession of a particular copy of a computer program (including any tape, disk, or other medium embodying such program), may, for the purposes of direct or indirect commercial advantage, dispose of, or authorize the disposal of, the possession of that phonorecord or computer program (including any tape, disk, or other medium embodying such program) by rental, lease, or lending, or by any other act or practice in the nature of rental, lease, or lending. Nothing in the preceding sentence shall apply to the rental, lease, or lending of a phonorecord for nonprofit purposes by a nonprofit library or nonprofit educational institution. The transfer of possession of a lawfully made copy of a computer program by a nonprofit educational institution to another nonprofit educational institution or to faculty, staff, and students does not constitute rental, lease, or lending for direct or indirect commercial purposes under this subsection.

1)Giving a copy to a friend is an indirect commercial advantage as they are not paying the license fee the copyright holder requires for distribution.

2)You aren't a nonprofit library or educational institution so you don't get a free pass to lend.

Citation needed. Nonprofit educational uses, sure. But giving your friend a copy of a video game is certainly not fair use.

You are for sure violating the copyright law by doing so. You have the right to make backups for personal archival but not to distribute. The second you share with someone else you are breaking copyright law.

Have you actually ever used Ada? It's like programming with handcuffs on.

Fucknugget is a good surprisingly used term

My grandma is over 100 and still licks the plate clean after eating. Things like that get ingrained with you

You are correct. Technically a snapshot, but unmodified files are not duplicated from the previous. Imho that is one of the key things to understand about how git works ( and why rebasing and branch manipulation works so well)

[–] Brosplosion@lemm.ee 1 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

To piggyback, the true main difference is svn stores commits as snapshots and git commits are deltas from previous. This is why git is depicted as a tree since it's inherently a node-based structure.

I feel like a SOCOM revival is desperately wanted by the community, but the cost / earnings ratio isn't good enough. They really mean "Wish we had some IP characters we could make a hero shooter with"

Inflation ate it all. $60 in 2005 would be almost $100 now. Hell even from 2015, $60 would be $80 scaled for inflation.

Might sound odd, but I loved Dark Arena. Basically a Quake-esque FPS but for the GBA.
