I still believe that titles of books should be copyrighted as I believe that some people are deliberately misleading with their duplicate title of books. Do not believe that it was a lack of imagination but just sucker bait. |

patent. Just did a google on "apple retina patent" & saw that the patent was officially approved in May, 2019 even tho the retina patent was applied for back in 2017.
Wonder if it will affect my diabetic retina scan I need to do every year.....or people who need to have their retinas digitally photographed prior to cataract surgery.......etc |

I once had to fill out a job interview questionnaire that confused "The Invisible Man" with "Invisible Man" where I made corrections on the side of the paper to fix their error. Needless to say, I did not get the job. Last edited by Dr. Drib; 09-03-2019 at 01:58 PM. |

Speaking of Apple: "In 1978, Apple Corps sued Apple Computer for violating its trademark. The two reached a settlement in ’81, agreeing that they could co-exist by functioning in separate spheres. Corps would stick to entertainment while Computer would stick to, well, computers. Jobs’ technology company also paid $80,000 for the rights to keep the Apple name.

The book itself may be a hoot, as well...A man with no face...hmmm. I don't know which one of these horror novels below I should buy...maybe both! (One rarely goes wrong with the great Bentley Little.) |

There's a part of my that wondered if Stephen L King just slapped a new cover on Bentley Little's book and called it a day.

There’s a review video out which is linked in a thread over in the Kobo forum so I’d expect official word soon.
ETA Apparently it’s going up for pre order on the 10th and hitting stores the next week Source https://techcrunch.com/2019/09/03/ko...cheaper-model/ Last edited by MGlitch; 09-04-2019 at 01:51 AM. |
