- Here's a parallel to this Rambus/Samsung situation:
-
Rambus: "It's mine!"
Samsung: "No, it's MINE! I want it!!"
Rambus: "No no no, you doodyhead, it's mine!"
Samsung: "WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! It's mine! MINE! MINE! MINE!" (jumps up and down)
Rambus: "GRRR!!! WAAH!! I'm going to sick daddy on you!" (points a finger menacingly)
Samsung: "No way turdbreath, I'm gunna get daddy first! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" (sticks out tongue)
As children, we're taught to share and make friends, often in pre-school and Sunday School classes. But once we "grow up", we seem to revert to pre-education status (in other terms, we act like unevolved TODDLERS, incapable of rational thought or the ability to share - a concept that's crucial to the sustenance of any 'society' worthy of the label).
Share and share alike and do so for the common good of man. This patent nonsense is only going to get worse as laws get more and more a--- retentive and continue to devolve us. Heck, if Unisys wanted to, any big corporation using GIF format pictures could be sued for infringement. Doesn't that make y'all feel good? Not me. WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
Still, I now see why everybody wants to be a lawyer... (hey, that's the profession that can replace IT! That or the millitary...
)
