Exquisite.

Also the first twin stick arcade game I played.

So, like none of these folk read The Running Man then?

Or many of the hundred times this idea has been used in Sci-fi.

The devil is in the details. Different contracts state different usages.

Often, I’m hired to make things for folk, and they own it entirely. I see these things out in the world, I sometimes see other artists hired to butcher it to fit a new purpose. But that’s OK, I account for that, and often I hand over the source files from the things I make… Layered documents etc.

However, there’s a really disturbing trend of large companies appropriating fan art and claiming that because they own the IP any derivatives belong to them too. This is far ickier.

The main thing though is credit. You’d think that giving a nod to the original artist would be nice. It costs nothing and can have a massive impact on their business.

Not viruses as such, at least according to the inventor of the term, rather they are already part of our inheritable structure, our DNA (so to speak) seeking new ways to be inherited.

We are our memes.

I’m sorry, “lenchings” is not a word in this puzzle, or the dictionary. Watch this ad to gain another credit and gave another guess.

It’s always been about context and provenance. Who took the image? Are there supporting accounts?

But also, it has always been about the knowlege that no one… Absolutely no one… Does lines of coke from a woven mat floor covering.

He’s been arrested, not sentenced. That’s the innocent until proven guilty bit.

Not sure where you are from, but I suspect not the UK.

Huffing lead is just OG eating microplastics.

The forgotten generation. Little chance of owning a hone or a business, skipped over for work.

Still, at least we have spent our whole lives learning to be slackers.

Yeah, and fractions of that stone? Pounds.

So like 10 stone 5 pounds.

Or, conversely, just switch to Linux.

Take an hour or so to have a look around the place.

Go on the internet if you have any questions.

People are smarter than you assume and if you want Linux to grow in popularity we need to stop pretending any if this is difficult.

I think some folk want to pretend using Linux is hard so that they can feel more… Uh… Technical for using it.

You know we use pounds as a weight measurement too, right?

Some countries use imperial measurements, others metric, but the UK enjoys both.

Hey, I’d go down if I knew he’d go down with me.

Or just being an absolute wanker.

Yeah, OK, time to hack their schedule.

Look on your list, you’ve already been in here today.

This is just a tutorial level.

features with a high degree of customizability - you can swap out the back cover, and also attach things like a lanyard.

Ooooh, a lanyard strap… That’s the sort of right to repair we’ve all been after.

Are you saying that I made something up? If so, let me know which bit it is and I’ll happily correct it.

Just to be clear though, I wasn’t saying he hasn’t had an impact on British politics. As the front man for some very shady interests he helped bring about a brexit referendum by causing the Tory party internal angst (Cameron really thought the country would vote to remain and he’d silence the right of his party that was being egged in by Farage). Nor am I negating that he has enjoyed unprecedented media exposure that has helped divide the UK.

“Disrupter”… Yeah, we need to stop using that word. He’s as much part of the establishment as the Tory members he’s helped replace.

His party is a corporate entity, and we’ll see how he gets on niw that he legally has to file his financial interests.
