I believe in order to sell a patent you would have to wait till it's actually issued. You could do the negotiations ahead of time, then when it's issued to you, hand it over.
Here in the US something like 90% of the people have one or two options. Where I live I only have one local provider who is exclusive, if i want cable TV or internet I have to go with them or move out. I pay $80/mth for 5mbps, which even then goes out about once a day at peak times. (officially I pay for 20mbps, but have never seen half of that)
Yep, many times in these sort of reports they do not figure in digital sales, only "albums", so they sell a shit ton of a single song but in the final report it's only the albums that are counted and they appear to be hemorrhaging money; then claim to need more protection for their "failing" business model, even though they are swimming in money.
And if you would do some research by reading OP's comment you could clearly see he was suggesting that vitamin C was a good alternative to a healthy immune system.
The whole "Vitamin C = cold cure" was started by a Noble Laureate (Linus Pauling) who did not even have a degree in the field of immunology, though was a chemist. One his awards were for the Peace Price, and not related directly to his scientific research; and the other was for his work in Chemistry, but related to the nature and structure of atomic bonds.
Basically OTHER people told him about the whole Vitamin C thing, then he started taking some 3000mg/day and did not get any colds, and concluded it must have been the vC, and wrote several books about vC advocacy, which ended up getting a lot of attn from his Nobel achievements.
Followup studies by the Mayo Clinic found that even higher doses (5000+mg/day) of vC were not any better then a placebo for cancer treatment. And that claims relating to the common cold were quackery.
Best research we got suggests if you take something like 1000mg a day at the start of a cold you can ease the effects, but you'll also develop nausea, headaches, and kidney stones.
Even then, one of the big selling points for Valve is that they offer steep sale prices frequently.
Sony & MS on the other hand will sell a download game for more then the it's retail counterpart because they do not want to piss off the retailers. Valve does not have this concern since few places still sell retail copies, and even then only the biggest AAA game of the month.
The only difference is the PS+ offering which is more like renting for an unknown time since games can come and go from the service.
Also it's unfair to demonize just Valve for the digital goods. Apple and other retailers of digital goods have been trying the whole "license/lease" argument for years, long before Steam became popular.
Yep, on the PC now even retail purchased games are requiring codes to be tied to some online account, so you'd have to setup a new account for each and every game you buy, and if sold would have to hand over the account itself as well.
Wasn't Gamespot or someone discounting used copies of some popular game by like $10, which was the cost of the one time use activation code?
Just FYI a quick trip to Wiki might educate you on that. Don't assume stuff and pass it off as scientific fact. It's not been conclusively shown it is dehydration. It is but one of several leading theories:
Yea they need to be working it in reverse, make a vaccine to prevent hangovers. They wouldn't even need scientific grants, the liquor industry alone would be happy to foot the bill.
Well none of them argued in court that they should have the ability to literally make up and lie about things and that they technically are not news shows, but an Entertainment show.
You're trying to say the average GOP Senator is as bad as Hitler, just because they agreed on a couple points.
They both get shit wrong once in a while, but only one went balls to wall wrong and are proud of it.
Also regarding ACORN, there was a criminal investigation which resulted in no charges being brought against them or any findings of wrongdoing on their part.
And as part of that same investigation they got Breightbart to hand over the unedited video which showed them applying for the housing subsidy wearing a suit/tie and acting normal, and another doing the whole Pimp/Ho routine which was denied. They just edited out the denial and spliced in the approval for the first one.
Exactly, we already paid for these upgrades, but instead of doing them, the companies just pocketed it and claimed people were using too much and capped us.
They either need to do the upgrades or give back the tax money.
Yea, when I was using 2.4ghz in my Apt building I would get shit speeds, I'd have like 30+ networks in range. I then moved over to the 5ghz and I got two, including my own network.
My guess is people show up initially to accuse him, then get the police involved later when he invariably professes in his innocence; at which time the Police hopefully backup his claim.

Yea... only thing in favor of Lightning seems to be the fact you can insert it either up or down.

Exactly, you have competing service providers.

Not just an anecdote, but some pseudo-conspiracy theory.
> Big pharma is trying to keep us sick and anyone who says different is a paid shill.
Vitamin C and vitamins in general are not some magic bullet against common illness.

So what's worse? runny nose of a kidney stone?

You can read more in the cited sources of the article.
I assume they do, why else would you order the expansive brand at a bar over the cheap shit? Especially if being mixed.
Yea they need to be working it in reverse, make a vaccine to prevent hangovers.

I've got to disagree somewhat, Broder is a fucking cheat in this whole thing.
He admitted to driving pasta charge station when the car indicated it needed to be charged.
No matter the car you're in you don't drive past a gas station when you're on "E" and then blame the car when it runs out of gas.
Well they have competition with a similar setup, but it uses hydrogen, not butane.

But looks like you'll also need a refiller, but depending on the life of it all, it might pay for itself vs. buying these butane ones.

Let me guess... the Ford Hindenburg!

Audience...
Fox would qualify as a tabloid save for the fact that a large part of the US takes them seriously.
Yea, cheaper to buy a few senators than upgrade the network.
Exactly, we already paid for these upgrades, but instead of doing them, the companies just pocketed it and claimed people were using too much and capped us.
They either need to do the upgrades or give back the tax money.

Hamster... what are you smoking?
It's obviously too many trucks backing up the inter-pipes.
Does AT&T even offer an SLA for it's residential customers?
Yep, and even if they go in knowing they will lose, it'll still cost the other company a ton of money to defend against it.
My guess is people show up initially to accuse him, then get the police involved later when he invariably professes in his innocence; at which time the Police hopefully backup his claim.
