But also, it's a Facebook post. The author's not selling subscriptions to this content. He's not charging per download. He put it in the public square himself, and in the comments he even positively comments about it being shared more widely. I would be very surprised if the author felt as strongly about this as you do.
Don’t worry. You’ve done nothing wrong. You just copied a public Facebook posting in a comment for a HN posting for said article. At no moment you violated any copyright or license.
It’s not Facebook I care about, it’s whoever wrote the post. I’m a photographer. When I find people pirating my work from social media sites I send them takedown notices. If not wanting people distributing my work makes me a corporate stooge, then so be it.
There's a difference between art and a statement of facts. What we're talking about here is mostly a statement of facts, written with the objective of informing the public instead of profit (the fire department doesn't rely on online "exposure" to fund itself).
What does the person who wrote the post lose by having a small subset of people ordinarily unable to view their original public post get to see the contents nonetheless?
I read this piece ages ago but stupidly forgot to save it. Every once in a while I'd try to find it again but I could never remember enough specific details, so thank you for posting this so I can finally read it again and save it!
Can anyone recommend some specific books to look at? This seems like a great treasure trove but as a beginner to art appreciation I don't have much of an idea of where to start.
The main reason I use Winamp is because it has global keyboard shortcuts for controlling playback. I'm not sure if any other media players have that, if anyone knows of one that does I would love to know.
Out of curiosity: I use AHK to do basic testing automation for a windows application that I have literally zero ability to control programatically (to achieve actually good automated testing). Anyone have a better option for this kind of use case?
I wrote some software (http://www.mute.fm/) that controls playback for you automatically when you watch a video (it will pause/mute it and resume it afterward.) It also lets you set up global hotkeys.
No I feel the same way at age 21. It's quite hard to follow the quick-cutting nature of most videos. The ones I tend to like the most are comedy videos that have really quick setups and punchlines.
Argh. I thought the way this work is you got soundtracks for all the games. Anyway, it's worth it just to play the game and hear the damn music. I linked the full soundtrack, though not in the best format.
Absolutely, the soundtrack alone is worth the playthrough. Here's a link to the studio's soundcloud which has the soundtrack up at what I think is a better quality than youtube is offering.

(be warned it autoplays at quite a high volume)
I'm assuming he means that you can go to the game's assets and listen to it yourself, and not that the game has a separate "official soundtrack" built-in.
