6:50 the judge is left speechless by his incompetence. Amazing stuff. I wish Russ and Melinda could afford his amazing services.TIL Rodney Mayer Esq is possibly even worse at lawyering than Russell fucking Greer.
That is incorrect. There are many, many people who have found out the hard way after they shared music, movies, or media with absolutely no profit to them and got reamed by the copyright system. I'm honestly not aware of anyone here who has ever expressed a desire to fully read fatrick's writings. It's not like Russell Greer where the whole thing is interesting in a car-crash sort of way.I suppose it's only copyright infringement if we actively profit monetarily
So is anyone going to question the SFWA's judgment in funding this idiocy? Way to spend your members' dues, if that really happened. Is there any evidence the SFWA actually bankrolled this dumb shit any even shyster level lawyer would know was destined for failure? Or is this just some bullshit Fat Rick made up?
It has to be the SFWA. The forums trolled their President, VP, and any other nerdy author who shot their mouth off about the Fatrick saga. So they definitely have a bone to pick. That's probably why he's so confident he'll never pay a penny himself. The only other person he's publicly allied with is Louise Mensch, who has her own lolcow thread. That's definitely a weird little side story, she's everything he bitches about on twatter, yet they found common ground about being trolled for being retarded online. She supposedly hooked him up with some resources for his fight, I seriously doubt she's helped fund it but you never know.
Why not just send the purchase price directly to Quasi's lawyer? That would be the polite thing, it would save Pat the trouble.And please remember that if you do download Pat's books, be sure to buy a legit copy because Pat is over 23K in debt and every penny helps.
They're literally paying thuggish creeps to do the same kind of shit Disney, Sony, RIAA, etc. do. A so-called "writers' association" paying to sue to stomp out the writings of people who criticize them.Might also gut thier attempts to raise money the SFWA legal fund, if folks knew it was going to sue meanies on the Internet, instead of defending writers from Disney and thier ilk.
Such is the quality of the lawyer SFWA can afford"You're just dead wrong" this judge is based.
EDIT: HOLY FUCK THIS MORON DOESN'T UNDERSTAND SECTION 230. HOW CAN A JEW (eta: no proof he's a tribe member, but Mayr...) BE SO BAD AT LAWYERING?
He argues that there's no freedom of speech protecting the site owner?!?
Are you brain-damaged?I suppose it's only copyright infringement if we actively profit monetarily
Not going to expose myself to potential brain damage by downloading and reading this shit but I would love to see one or two reviewed by Krimson Rogue. He did a good job reviewing Onision's "novels".If you really want to read Fat Pat's books so bad, there's five of them on Libgen.
Part of me hopes the case progresses and we get a decision whether going off your meds and using Pat's mil-spec sci-fi tales as props in a series of tasteful nudes from the nuthut can be considered fair use or not.There are many, many people who have found out the hard way after they shared music, movies, or media with absolutely no profit to them and got reamed by the copyright system.
I think as long as it's not 1:1 adaptation but with nudity it would fall under fair use as a porn parody if someone wanted to adapt it this way. Using the book as a prop without going into its content should be fine too.using Pat's mil-spec sci-fi tales as props in a series of tasteful nudes from the nuthut can be considered fair use or not.
Tripping the Rift already exists. Why make a worse version?I think as long as it's not 1:1 adaptation but with nudity it would fall under fair use as a porn parody if someone wanted to adapt it this way. Using the book as a prop without going into its content should be fine too.
This high art.Half an hour of impotent narcissistic wailing is pretty tiresome so I condensed all of Patrick's key points into just over 3 minutes.
He is fucking insane.
