That's actually a good question. Surely Mastodon and Lemmy instances should have also seen an uptick in registrations?

I'm sorry, Bruce. These boys get that syrup in them, they get a little antsy in their pantsy. You just can't keep them under control.

Just out of curiosity, are you an Apple user, looking for alternatives to Apple's AppStore?

WD, in turn, claimed the firm had not infringed Suess’ patents

So did they or didn't they infringe? The article doesn't say. I imagine MRT disassembled some drives to examine for infringement.

It is also possible that these hundreds of employees across the globe working R&D for Western Digital may have developed the same, or nearly the same, technology. But then MRT filed first if they were awarded the patient.

Given the track record of memory and other computer parts manufactures, I would say it's more likely that they're simply lying through their teeth.

No, I think it's, maybe, a little bit different. So, I've known him a long time indirectly, not directly very much, and he was always of white heritage, and he was only promoting white heritage, I didn't know he was orange, until a number of years ago when he happened to turn orange, and now he wants to be known as orange. So, I don't know, is he white or is he orange - but, you know what, I respect either one
