Comment Re:Western District of Texas?!? (Score 4, Insightful) 37

Judge Albright is in the Western District of Texas (Waco), which has taken much of the new patent cases that used to go to Eastern District of Texas.
While article says this court is "plaintiff-friendly", in reality this court has a specialized IP litigation docket, with processes that expedite patent cases to trial. Some plaintiffs may favor that, but it also benefits defenses to have the court know the ins and outs of IP and to have specific expertise.

Comment Too bad Congressman Khanna (Score 4, Insightful) 377

doesn't bother to understand to whom the First Amendment does and just as importantly doesn't limit restricting speech. You wonder if he bothered to read the document he swore an oath to defend and yet he has no problem using the heavy hand of his office to interfere with the decisions of a non-government organization.

Comment Similar to Kindle (Score 1) 36

As alluded to in the post, it is similar to what users have to go through with Kindle on IOS. You purchase a book, you have to go to the web version of Amazon. You can't use the Amazon app or the Kindle app.

It's an extra barrier of stupidosity due to Apple's rules. If Apple were to charge a small, reasonable fee for distribution -- say 50 cents for a purchase -- everyone could end up happy, including consumers. But instead, you have to work around because Apple insists on charging a percentage of the value of the content.

Can we please have a end to the "$1Zillion NFT purchase using StupidCoin" stories. There's no liquidity in whatever the heck is "MANA", so there's no real value.

Here's an ICO for "IdiotCoin", 1 of 10 quadrillion. Key: #000001. I'll buy it from myself for $1. There, now I'm a multi-quadrillionaire. Now I'll use 1 IdiotCoin to purchase virtual land on a virtual server. Wow, this is making me rich!
