So what do you guys think about extracting audio from official (or non official), music videos? I do this often with youtube-mp3.org

i guess it's not too bad if it's just for personal use..

Phew. I just thought that I'd be trueful and say that I get a majority of my music from that website. But, I'm hoping to delete it all and have a fresh start.

theres no laws against any religion in the us as far as i know but there are some really unfair laws out there, like outlawing gay and lesbian marriage

And on the laws that are in place to prevent discrimination, many are not actually followed.

I don't really think that's unfair, because of my beliefs. Seriously, that just seems really messed up.

in truth the bible really says nothing bad about homosexuality, so you cant reference that as a source of your opinions

That is unfair. You have a First Ammendment right to freedom of religion. That does not give you the right to enforce your religious beliefs on someone else either.

You said pirating was not right so I said what if I pirated a song that was on Youtube only but the creator never put up a dl link? Is that still pirating?

Re: Pirating - your opinions?

The Bible actually does say things against homosexuality, but that is way off topic. And homosexuality isn't a religion, so it's the governments discretion, not us, keeping it illegal. Anyway, this is about pirating, so back on topic.

Re: Pirating - your opinions?

An interesting tie-in to piracy is that there is a group who made a "religion" based on their right to share information. Basically their goal is to make it so that suing them for piracy would become religious persecution, and therefore using the first ammendment against the government. It seems very shady though.

It's true. Kopimism is even a legally recognized religion in Sweden, and is spreading to the United States.

Re: Pirating - your opinions?

Alright, the whole of by and for the people thing isn't really true anymore, since only a small portion even bother to vote. But the laws are made by a few hundred people, voted on, signed by one guy, and boom, it's a law. Not the rest of the country's fault, as opinnions and policies change after someone gets elected. The anti piracy law was a good one though, since it protects people's work from being stolen, piracy is STEALING.

Edit: I had to make an effort to get back on track, hence the piracy part  tongue

Hey yes! I do! :DDD
What you need to do is have some building skills (you'll need to have a ship seaworthy enough to get to Mojang offices) and a pirate outfit.
BUILD A SHIP. I cannot state this enough. It is the fundamental step.
GET IN A PIRATE OUTFIT. It is also fundamental.
GO TO MOJANG OFFICES. Also fundamental.
Scream "Yo ho ho give me Minecraft!" at a random person.
DONE. Quintessential.

That's better then it used to be. You used to have to be a man, a landowner and a myriad of other requirements.

I never really thought of it like that, but that's very true. The only real reason against homosexuality is religion. The government shouldn't be based upon religion.

Forcing everyone to vote would just mean people who aren't interested in politics and have not much of an opinion can easily be brainwashed by the first party they see into voting for them.

Re: Pirating - your opinions?

It's a bit stupid. Until they tackle spam which costs billions a year. Also people who complain about it have three houses, and also they use piracy as an excuse to cease peoples freedom (CISPA SOPA etc). Before they whine about people being morally wrong they would sort their act out.

(I don't pirate by the way.)
