Seeing things like "slide to unlock", "rounded corners", and "scroll bouncing" are all patentable is ridiculous.

Workers of lemmy, what was the reason that customer got banned ? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 20 points 3 weeks ago

A recurring customer having habit of delaying to pay the bar tab because he's "too drunk". Usually took him weeks and multiple asking before he paid his bar tab in full.

This time he bought a bunch of pretty girls lots of expensive drinks, at the end of the night he is so drunk that nobody can reason with him to pay (but we suspect he's faking it as always). So we put his bill in his tab and let him go.

The next day he act like he doesn't remember anything and refused to acknowledge that he was buying anyone else drinks even with the CCTV footage of him on that night (and of course refused to pay his tab).

This went on for 2 weeks before the head bartender get into a fight with him. The customer ended up with a black eye and got banned from the bar. He doesn't press any charges.

I couldn't remember his bill total in the end, but it was close to 2k.

It's so soft and smooth, if it hadn't been all over on social media, I would have believe it if somebody tell me it was CGI.

Maybe i'm stupid, but why would a TV even do that? All it's know is what you're watching today, right? How is that information useful? If you're living with other people, the TV couldn't even know who's watching, that would make the data useless.

The IP and copyright laws is century old and in dire need to get reformed. Nintendo being able to takedown a video just because it show the title screen of one of their game for literally a split second is ridiculous. Or a studio able to take all of the revenue from someone's video because they hummed a tune for a few seconds.
