it's the thing the Commissioner uses to contact Batman during emergencies.

title is ominous. because humor was literally banned or cancelled from all facets of society from 2010 onward. thanks SJWs.

Baseball is turn-based , where most other sports are real-time. hence baseball may feel slower or less action-y. on the contrary, baseball has more suspense than most real-time sports. which may be its main attraction and advantage over other sports.

Baseball is played in phases. thus one can hone in on specific phases, moments, or (pitcher-batter) matchups, when the tension and stakes are elevated.

OTOH soccer is real-time, but 90% of the time lacks tension, action, or suspense. Highlights aren't that amazing either. Obviously since the range of allowed physical and athletic moves are severely limited.

Overall, I think American football has the best combination of real-time action, suspense, phases, player-player matchups, tension, stakes, strategy, athleticism, and highlights.

Even highlights of soccer are boring. Arguably more boring than golf, which has no "action".

wotc sucks on digital platforms. they had 20 years head start than hearthstone, but the latter is a more famous household name.

it's only november, but feels like january. stupid global warming.

Pantone owns an index that associates a "name" to a color. that's it. Adobe used to license that index. But without that index file, those colors now appear as black. this should be the real issue, how Adobe is handling it. many creators fear the ruining of older works that were created under the old licenses.

Pantone's main use is creating dyes and paints that can be coated onto physical objects. The process to create a specific hue onto paint is nontrivial. Thus is easily traceable if a client wants to trademark a color. which the trademark of a color is only valid within a specific industry. that's the main infringement that's liable regarding Pantone color. in other words, you can register a color with Pantone as part of the process to protect your trademark.

nevertheless, you can freely use other indexes or colorspaces, such as RGB, CMYK, HTML hex, YUV, etc. even if they do overlap with Pantone's list of colors. in other words, Pantone doesn't own other ways to represent colors. in this case for digital images created by laymen, Pantone is moot. since we more commonly use binary indexes, like RGB, or HTML.

someone described it youtube:

for those asking how this happened -
people started pushing because there was a large crowd in a narrow alleyway, and the alleyway was on an incline. people tried to mitigate the situation from getting worse by shouting walk back but because of the music/noise, it was mistaken as telling everyone to move forward. people at the top started pushing even more and everyone started falling from the top and it was a domino effect. the ones at the bottom basically had the weight of 100k+ bodies on top of them... most of the victims are reported to be women right now because of their smaller frames/not being able to withstand the force/seen wearing heels so harder to keep balance (interview from a bystander).

this was a PUBLIC street, and there should have been more security/cops to control the crowd. however, the past years have never had a number this big. it's assumed that because halloween hasnt been celebrated since 2019 due to covid, a lot more people wanted to go out/celebrate. some media channels are wrongly reporting that this was an event/concert/festival. IT WAS NOT A FESTIVAL. people were just on a public street, trying to get to their destinations. it didnt help that this alleyway was right in front of a major subway stop

remember when western nations similarly tried to takeover and chop up China? hence they were threatened and lost territory like hong kong, macao, etc. china is not playing a weak paper tiger anymore.

Karma.

not sure it's "stupid". you shouldn't be able to, for example, use some random company's color scheme (down to the RGB values) for your own commercial purposes, like Pepsi's or Coca Cola's, etc (endless examples).

if I make a logo for my company using Coca Cola's RGB values, that's at least pretty sketchy if not blatantly infringement. (maybe there are better examples if Coca Cola has like 2 colors or something; the more colors are involved the more valid it becomes to be protected).

coke doesn't copyright or own colors. an infringement can only happen if everything, including colors, pattern, font, etc. has great resemblance to another copyright or trademark.

a color by itself cant be copyrighted. for that matter, copyright is the right to put something on a medium, or a representation thereof. since a color can't be copyrighted, that means people are free to represent those colors in various methods (or encoding in this case.)

Pantone may own the copyright to a specific representation of colors. However as stated above, other people can legally represent the same colors using other methods or medium.
