I think this paper is refuting Conway (and others') proof of the claim that a set can be divided into 3+ parts without relying on the Axiom of Choice. It does so by observing that the proof only applies to sets that have an ordering, w

Netflix is draining of quality content and people still pirate memberships. Not a good example. If Netflix was working so well, all those other services wouldn't exist, because they'd have no customers. You undermine your own argu

It's just circular logic to fallaciously justify itself. "criminal organization" == "Any group of >1 person who breaks this law". The term isn't in the text of the law itself.

All you have to do is not make copies of content the creators don't want to give to you. It costs you nothing to not infringe. Do you also want to live in a society without personal property? Can I come to your home to borrow anything

That's only for the cheap fake cheese, not a good cashew cheese. What's nice about cashew cheese is that it won't make you sick as quickly as a dairy cheese pizza will, which despite it's good taste charged a hefty tax a
