Such utter bullshit, can't believe this would get modded interesting. The officials should just hush it up and let price-fixing go on? That's where the money is you know, getting paid to shut up (which is why the US financial sector is still very much alive and kicking). What the fuck has
Nice jab at being specious, but all I know is the article. Nokia has been succesfully suing over their patents before MS deal and will continue to do so; they do have patents which actually are standards essential as in they were a big part of making the standards themselves possible.
Try looking in the mirror and seeing how you parrot someone elses per rectum theories; the amount of pure stupidity and mallaced bias in
Well, you obviously did not RTFA (because it's about Nokia, not MS) and were just prepared to go on the 'oh, the M$' rant about how they're using Nokia to do their dirty work... Nokia and MS have a deal, they're not going to sue MS & WP, try processing that.
I think Nokia would/should require Google to license their tech even without MS deal; there's no reason for Nokia to subsidise Google even if they aren't out to make real money on the HW itself. They've told Google to get in touch, but since it's an American company expect a minimum 2 years of litigation for tax reasons or just because the US courts are what they are.
Nokia missed the mobile boat? Fucking news to me. Considering Nokia sued Apple before MS deal I think you really need to try and get over the fact you were literally born yesterday compared to Nokia.
Google isn't interested in the HW so much as the fact that they need to control the OS and the ecosystem... you're essentially saying that since Google isn't out to make money with the devices they should be allowed to minimize their losses by not licensing tech developed by others.
The Nexus 7 isnt fundamentally different from their other tablets/phones in regards to these patents. Why bring suit now?
They haven't sued, RTFA... they're telling them to license the damn tech and I'd be surprised if they hadn't approached the subject before.
Idiot... software patents vs tech patents, big difference.
Okay, seriously you need to stop snorting the urinal cakes... your comment is a new low even for
Nokia was under completely different management 2 years ago, which essentially makes every point on behavior prior to the microsoft deals entirely unrelated points.
How exactly is this shit insightful? Afaik they went after Apple for freeloading and now they're going after Google... or maybe I just answered myself. Microsoft and Nokia have a deal on patents so Windows Phones aren't being targeted, go cry me a river.
I guess tea just doesn't have that Good vs Evil side to when compared to caffeine to make those stories pop and when I hear 'superfoods' and 'antioxidants' it just registers as marketing lingo ("umbrella terms" under which you can drop just about anything).
A study published today linked the acceptance of funding from coffee cartels to the finding of health benefits of coffee consumption.
(More) News at ten.
This! You rarely get similar exciting news about tea either killing you or giving you eternal life, makes me think I've chosen some kind of third world beverage... even alcohol gets the occasional "it's okay if you don't overdo it" so it has to have some first world banking behind it.
What is Batman without a little bit of camp? It's Christian Bale, one of the most boring actors ever. Personally I liked Batman, Batman Returns and even Batman Forever; I was a teen back then, but still they had solid actors and for films of their time they looked good.
After that it's been at best ok... I'm not sure why Bale is incapable of actual facial expressions, but from the looks of it it's contagious.
As far as I'm aware national copyright laws don't apply when you're at sea, and a warship under sail is hardly a "public place"! OK, the political/media fallout could get awkward, but that's why none of my forces mates ever pass ripped films around when they're on active service. I'm with the anti-piracy brigade, but as far as I'm concerned the military covenant outweighs that one.
Yes, we know they'll most likely never be called out on it, publicly at least that is... but getting away with it doesn't mean that it isn't a crime though. If you're able to easily "share" your media you're most likely in violation of DMCA (amazingly a lot of countries have in short timespan created similar laws too), going against the FBI/RIAA/MPAA warnings and all sorts of things you shouldn't be doing.
Plus you're in the navy and taking part in piracy, arrr-r-r-r! The moderators are scallywags!
Their idea of an offer you can't refuse is an offer... and you'd better not refuse.
