  • India's first Apple Store teased before Tuesday's grand opening

    Oh I am not criticizing Apple at all here. It’s just that India is growing with gigantic wealth differences, which dwarf what happens in Europe or even in the US. It might become the biggest economy in the world but it will still have huge slums everywhere.

    There are slums a few hundred meters from there. Mumbai and India in general are so shitty. I can tell you because I live there. I can send you pictures of the store next week if you like.

  • Man who claims to be Bitcoin creator eyes lawsuit against Apple

    Wow so many clowns who claim to know somethign about copyright law.

    The document itself contains no Copyright—the word Copyright does not appear in the document nor the © symbol, no date of copyright and no individual/company who owns the copyright. These are three more impediments to a successful copyright suite against Apple. Furthermore, although Apple has deep pockets and is therefore a 'good' target for such a suite, copyright provides the least protection of all the intellectual property laws. He can threaten all he likes but a successful suit is highly unlikely!
    Wrong. It is not necessary to include the (c) symbol to sue someone for infringement. Including the symbol is beneficial to the copyright holder because, among other things, it precludes certain defenses.

    because an unused sample white paper appeared in macOS? FFS Attention seeking, fame fucker. Even if he had proof he was the author it would still be a very dubious case. Without proof it sounds like a grift from a former president who's about to be a convicted felon. Humanity really needs a reboot. 
    What makes it "dubious" if he can prove he is the author?  What element of a copyright infringement claim is missing here?  


    Although Wright has yet to file a formal lawsuit against Apple, it's unlikely he will succeed since he still has to provide irrefutable evidence that he is indeed the creator of Bitcoin. Given the nature of the document, it's also unclear if any copyright law applies.

    No, he only needs to prove he is the author. Fictious names and pseudonyms may be used, and the author is still entitled to copyright protection.  

    He also doesn't need to prove that he invented Bitcoin. All he needs to prove is that he wrote the article. 






    This comment read with an annoying voice in my head.

    I don't think Apple is their risk factor.

    I think the fact that people are is interested in VR as they were in 3D television is the risk factor.

    The number of people who want this crap in any near future is a rounding error.
    That’s a really ignorant take. VR is amazing for many types of videogames for example. 
    That’s not an ignorant take.  As an overarching interface to the next gen internet it is spot on. Besides Zuckerberg I don’t know of anyone besides Sweeney who thinks this is a good idea.   We’re not talking about dedicated game use — no problem with that.  And we’re not talking vertical market use for specialty needs.  That is all fine.  We’re talking about the idea that people want to interact with each other regularly on the network through VR.   No one is asking for that or cares about it.  
    Oh yes sorry, I agree completely.
