@broniebrown I'm gonna patent the act of filing a patent.
-
@scribus That wouldn't work
-
@scribus Sounds like a very good idea. So you'll end the flood of stupid patents that are ruining everybody's lifes
-
@broniebrown stupid patents? how so?
-
@broniebrown Oh no, I'll sit back and let them happen, and then sue everyone's pants off! >:D
-
@scribus if you sue them and they win, then their patents becomes that much stronger.
-
@calvinthedestroyer Just like in highlander!
-
@nerthos No one's going to challenge a proven patent.
-
@calvinthedestroyer You can't do something because there is a trivial patent prohibiting you to do so if you're going to sell it. The US has so many software patents such that you can't do anything because you're probably violating at least one patent. There are so many trivial patents in the system such that the whole purpose of the patent system is broken.
