This article says they’ve only been trying to contact Valve since last October (2015). So that doesn’t really hold up. And as everyone has pointed out all over the place, these generic-ass patents apply to a ton of other services as well.

Who also happen to be acting like patent trolls...

Patent trolls need to be the ones prosecuted. All they do is hold back progress.

So basically what you’re saying is you don’t understand the purpose of a coach at all?

On the street you deal with it. Not at your home, you have issues please seek help.

So basically it’s not right. Shut the fuck up.

Amen. There’s literally no reason you can’t be both an opponent of Donakd Trump and a decent human being. It may be emotionally satisfying to pay shitty behavior forward, but engaging in shitty behavior is still engaging in shitty behavior.

Yea. I looked at this and cringed. Its both rude and thirsty.

Yep, I don’t care if you don’t like your customer but if they want to give you business the least you could do is show some class. Go ahead and donate the money and maybe even still send her the note but don’t post it online. Publicly posting this kind of comes off as a cheap jab for publicity and cheapens your image.

Yeah, I loathe the Trump family but this self-congratulatory shaming bullshit is lame. They don’t come out of this looking good.

Yeah, I loathe Trump, but I still feel icky about publicly treating a (supposed) customer that way.

I know. I’m not famous (like super not famous) but the idea that it’s cool for a company to be like “Hey, Sehjma, thanks for ordering <potentially embarrassing thing> from us!” all over their social media is...not cool.

I agree. Also, this type of shaming is coming from a bad angle that just renders the whole thing embarrassing.

I agree. If they wanted to write and include the note to her- fine. But posting it publicly is crossing boundaries/ a bit of a violation to me. Not cool.

I’m a little surprised to be feeling so much “Nope” over this.

In this case, yes, the Ref knows. It’s why the ref is not giving a count when the Azerbaijan fighter goes down and why the ref is shaming him into to getting back up each time. The ref knows the Azerbaijani fighter is going to be called the winner and the fighter is supposed to be a better ‘actor’ and make it ‘look’…

That’s nothing. That defense was just used here in Canada. The lawyers said the criminal didn’t understand morals so they shouldn’t be found guilty. The crime? Stabbing 5 teenagers to death. At a house party. He just stabbed and stabbed and stabbed, leaving 5 kids dead. But no, because his lawyers said he doesn’t…

I saw that too.

Forgive my ignorance here but are the refs told who won the match before the winner is announced? If you watch the replay carefully the ref definitely raises the guy in the blue's hand before they announcer says "...in the blue corner"

I see they're already regretting the decision to use UFC referees in the Olympics.
