@Absolis I told you. I'll post when I get home. Patience!

@Lmpkio

Patience is for the weak and the people who have the mental fortitude to wait for extended periods of time.

As long as WW3 isn't started and day to day life isn't worse off I don't really care too much tbh.

Though with enough pressure the US could prob make permanent allies out of China due to their huge water problems. If they don't fix their pollution, expect a Chinese cival war in about 15-20 years.

@Archmage MC

They don't have drinkable tap water, but boiling it makes it drinkable. That and they can easily import from Russia and Canada, albeit it'll affect prices. Other pollution problems are being fixed as fast as possible I believe. I highly doubt civil war will break out because of this in the near future.

Well its basically a trend when it comes to country conflicts and the like, IE, they are very likely to happen when food or water runs low. Example, Ukrane and Russia, they were running low on Buhckwheat, which is basically the USSR area equivalent of rice+bread+Ramen+ect all rolled into one. Now look at whats going on. yeah... Sure thats not the whole story, but it def accelerated the problem thats for sure.

Happened a bunch in ancient times I'm sure.

So that's why some of my favorite vocaloid songs have been being removed on YouTube recently! People are fraudulently removing them from YouTube by posing as various fake artists and companies!

Cyano needs to have a few words with these people

[Absolis]

This is why youtube needs better security. It's run by google, they can afford to do some fact checking when it comes to videos being marked as copyright.

@Absolis

If it ever happens to one of your videos over something thats public domain, like say... Beethoven's 4th or other classical music, just appeal and say you WILL go to court if they strike it again. You can easily get a newer lawyer on your side for an easily won public domain case and incur no court costs due to the other party being countersued for like 5K plus court fees.

Chances are they wont even show up in court or if threatened with court action they'll settle outside the courtroom though, which is a won case either way.

Legal fees aren't that bad either, its only 600 or so dollars which you get back at the end of the trial, plus some extra, maybe less depending on the lawyer.

[Absolis]

The horrid part is that that happens a lot.

@Archmage MC

Thats the thing. Vocaloid is a tricky subject, because the program is public domain, but the music isn't always public domain. Bands use the program with the music they create. So it's not technically public domain being pulled. Rather, it's copyrighted works being pulled down from official sources (such as the band's own YouTube channel) by fraudulent claims.

@Absolis

yep, hence why I've studied some law. I'm in no way a lawyer, but I know a decent amount about it.

@Absolis

Oh, you can't do anything about Vocaloid, I'm talking actual public domain stuff like 1400s classical music and the like.

[Absolis]

I don't think anyone would try to pill classical music.

Okay. Um. I'm busy with finals and stuff. So I won't be particularly timely.

@Archmage MC

It's far from the whole story.

It has, when a certain economy needed more resources, they'd often go to war for more. We can see that with the US invading everything. But civil war for water? Not so sure. It might happen in a distant future, but China wouldn't be the only one concerned. If it were for other more valuable resources, perhaps. In any case China is investing heavily in green and renewable shit. More than most countries, so it isn't a lost cause.
