    If it weren't for closed source software x86 would no longer exist. Backwards compatibility and the massive overcomplexity that comes with are unnecessary when you build everything from source.

    Woo hoo!

    Patent troll, Personal Audio LLC, was defeated in court by #EFF again. Their appeal was rejected by the Supreme Court and podcasters are free from this blight in the US

    How this stupid patent was allowed in the first place boggles the mind, but the entire patent system needs an overhaul

      EFF Wins Final Victory Over Podcasting Patent
      from Electronic Frontier Foundation
      Back in early 2013, the podcasting community was freaking out. A patent troll called Personal Audio LLC had sued comedian Adam Carolla and was threatening a bunch of smaller podcasters. Personal Audio claimed that the podcasters infringed U.S. Patent 8,112,504, which claims a “system for...

    Ok, so I got lured into some Reddit lore.

    This was pretty amazing. Guy wonders who is stalking him, one redditor picks up on the clues and suggests it's CO poisoning:

    Followup:

    https://www.reddit.com/r/legaladvice/comments/34m92h/update_ma_postit_notes_left_in_apartment/

    The ambien stories in the followup are pretty amazing.

    > My former boss gave me one because I was sleeping badly, and my wife said that night I sat straight up in bed, grabbed a book and a cat and headed for the living room. She asked me what I was doing and I said I was going to go read to the cats because, "those motherfuckers need some culture."

    Oh wow, I started reading it but now I realized the damn thing is 71 pages long. But I saw the first clear-as-day strawman already on page 3, so I feel like it's just good self-care to put this thing to the side and not read it until I feel the need for some righteous rage.

    Show me one author thinking "Well, I could write a book, but if it will only benefit my grandkids and not my great-grandkids I don't see why I should bother.".

    After smacking my computer like every ten seconds for an hour to keep the fan from going too loud, I just suspended it and woke it back up and it's silent.

    Quick thinking there.

    @herrabre @seanl It's addressed in the article. The Supreme Court decision that allowed Sony Bono to stand was based on "[no seriously this is probably the last one]" and yet another increase would undermine that.

    No need to get excited, but particular, specific points against specific increases in dominant parts of the world is part of what will hold perpetual copyright back.

    US-specific arguments are super important, simply because they are the big intellectual monopoly and they are keeping everyone else on a leash.

    Apparently Hatch was the face of the Sonny Bono round. I only knew him as random prominent politician.

    http://www.copyrightextension.com/page03.html is an excerpt of his speech when introducing the bill.
