Some party fuckers or the traditional kingdom clans?

Wouldn't mind either if they drop their cheating and copying after

I would

"Cheating and copying", my ass. Free market capitalism, baby. If they can make a product of similar quality and NOT charge a 10,000% markup over material cost, I'll happily give my money to them

Oh fuck

Space Jam 2 is a thing

"H-how will we pay our executives outrageous salaries if we don't artificially stop people from making the same thing we make, but cheaper?"

"okay guys, I came up with the idea for this widget. It costs $1000, and since I had the idea first, nobody else is allowed to make it, okay?"
"Hey I can make Widgets too, but I can make them for $400! They're the same, functionally, but I trimmed the fat"
"OMG this is theft"

Based matt

i agree with matthew tho

patents are bullshit

and their abuse even more so

Thank the burgers for that

patents are good in a 2year range or so

But as soon as it gets massacred into allowing design/forms to be patented it's just ridiculed by everyone

even 2 years is long time with current steps we take in automation and invention

Yeah, but the intend is to reward innovation not everyone creeping to copy each other

and there still exists questions if patents are benetifical for invention or hinderance

even with "copying" there would be different implementations and so on and so forth

and they would need to research manufacturing etc themselves what would lead to innovations too

sadly we just cant know which way is better for future

```

Yes, that's exactly what we're seeing the chinks doing

Great innovation all the way

last time i checked due chink copying we have taken quite bit steps forward

any tech device what tries to be better than other with new forms of gimmicks etc ?

cheaper lab equipment what has caused leaps on material and chemical fronts

etc etc

failure to implement certain things properly has gotten us some stuff too

afaik RCWL-somethingsomethingnumbers is one of such "accidents

and the all the new ways to measure fat,heart rate etc etc are mostly reason of trying to copy/experiment on tech that someone else has already made and so on and so forth

I'm preparing the absolute poverty lunch

eww straight fries

you talk like the shape influences the taste

it does good sir it does

specialy when you rape those straight litle sticks in oven

they are good for deepfryer but you cant just get them right from oven sadly

crinklecut ones are superior when made in oven tbh~

looks p good porco

@porco nevermind those are crinkle cut fries

i just needed to open the picture in browser

for it to become large enough

... goddamit discord

Electric or gas oven porco?

electric

sadly gas cooking is very unpopular in Switzerland

then it's absolute patrician's meal

Electricity will probably beat the cost of the food

kek no power is cheap af here

one of the last places in Europe where crypto mining is still viable

fuck

in switzerland? really?

🤔

yes, electricity is dirt cheap here

I have my computer running 24/7, I have a huge additional freezer is my basement, I have 3 homeservers taking 300 W / each running day and night

I pay about 20 CHF / month for power

how much per 1kwh

!answer 20 chf to eur

0.13 CHF / kwh

so the oven needs 2 kwh for 20 minutes

tfw paying for gas and electricity together so i cant be fucked to calculate shit

that's 600 W so that's 0.08 CHF to heat the food

@Tervy So we should pull our research and rely on accidents? Great concept

where did i say that good sir

When you said you're against patents and explained copying is a good thing. The problem here is still if the original innovator doesn't get something out of it, why bother at all?

Then we're indeed just copying of each other and relying on accidents

you really think that patents are only way for researchers to get paid ? wow

Then tell me other options

State fund all research?

!answer 0.70pln to chf

So yeah

@Sdeck37 Profit sharing on the fruits of their labor instead of a set wage

I mean, not to say that would ever fly in modern capitalist society . People tend to start making angry NPC noises if you insinuate that executives shouldn't be making 60+% of the wages in their companym when they make up 1% of the workforce

source on those numbers: My ass

```

```

I have actually no clue what you're saying here

@Sdeck37 I will use small words for you

>Make thing
>thing makes money
>For each thing sold, employees get a certain amount of money.

Instead of
>Get paid same amount for product if it sells 1 or if it sells 10 million

holy fuck that would kill me

i think we're planning to sell like 100 devices total in 20 years

Yeah, the concept of having a vested interest in the success of your employer makes a lot of slackers <:blobsweats:427568683003412505>

Then you're off-topic
My point is there is no profit, if we're not at least pretend to honour some kind of patent system/rwarding innovators

Nigga what did you just say

I notice chinks tend to defend Huawei a lot

>Huawei is attacked by the US government because they are threatened the most advanced company in the world

>Huawei makes the best phones, you should get a Huawei

Xiaomi is better than Huawei.

fight me.

im better than huawei

Huawei was caught trying to steal shit from Apple. I mean, I don't like Apple

No

That would be Vivo and other no name brands

Alcatel

Anything with a mediatek in it

@nitrokojote Huawei has spies in companies that steal info for them

theyve been caught doing it multiple times
