Samsung appeals the Samsung Galaxy Nexus ban, obviously

Samsung's lawyers made an extremely unpredictable (sarcasm) move yesterday by filing an appeal for the preliminary Samsung Galaxy Nexus ban that Apple made a couple of days ago. Samsung's lawyers are claiming that the ban is "inconsistent with the Federal Circuit's directive that market share losses must be substantial," and as FOSS Patents says, "attribute to the 'infringing feature,' not just the presence of the infringing product on the market." This appeal is a lot like the appeal Samsung made for Apple's Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 ban that stopped United States sales of it last week. We here think that these bans are completely unnecessary and just a nuisance. These bans are just Apple's way to make more money and take products off the shelves without making a more compelling product and innovating more. Apple should just stop nitpicking patents, just mind their business, and work on making products that would wow us like they used to. These patent wars are just messing up and ruining the technology landscape by not letting companies put out great products, because of all these patents. We do understand that patents are to protect a companies good idea, but when they have broad, stupid, patents they just go around trolling products to make money.

Review: The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water

It's 7:15 at night. The sun has been below the horizon for quite some time, but it is not yet my bedtime. I go to the cashier and ask her if they are showing my movie. She gives me a puzzled look, checks the queue, and luckily finds the tickets I am looking for. After asking my age she assures me that I have nothing to be ashamed about, nothing to fear. I then pass through the doors and embark on a journey I have been waiting for more than a decade to begin. Back in 2004 Nickelodeon, Stephen Hillenburg, & company released the very first feature film of the SpongeBob Squarepants franchise: The SpongeBob Squarepants Movie . The cartoon had been around for less than five years at the time, and many people did not expect much from its box office release. However, it did do very well for a television cartoon movie grossing more than $32 million opening weekend and receiving average scores of 66/100. This might sound mediocre compared to Oscar winning films, but this is incredib...

A New Leaf

Hello everybody; it's been a while. With school, work, and my extracurricular activities, I haven't had as much time as I would have wanted to spend writing. In the two years since I've last posted, I was vice president, president, and varsity captain for my high school's Academic Decathlon team, went to the California state Academic Decathlon competition twice, was a student commissioner for my city's Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission, a speech coach for Chinese students learning English, earned my Eagle Scout rank, and was accepted into my dream school, the University of California San Diego. With that in mind, I'm also about to graduate high school. I wasn't the speaker that my high school teachers were looking for as graduation speaker, but I thought it would be remiss if I did not say anything. My original speech would seem a bit out of context as an article, so this is a slightly abridged version. "Throughout my high school career, this...

Moto G: Moto Grrrreat!

Before the Moto X was officially announced, people speculated that it might be offered at an incredibly low off-contract price. Some people even guessed that it would be $199 off - contract . This was sadly not true, but Motorola did say that they would eventually offer a device similar to the Moto X, but with a lower unlocked price. Motorola also said that the cheaper device would be geared towards more markets than the United States, like Brazil and other emerging markets. They have finally taken off the covers of the Moto G, and it is almost exactly as Motorola said it would be. It looks like a Moto X, but it has less expensive internals. Many other smartphone manufacturers have made cheaper versions of their flagship handsets, but they almost always turn out to be pieces of junk. Is the Moto G a worthwhile handset, even at its $179 off-contract price? Can you be happy with the Moto G as your primary device. Scroll onward to find out, but you can just look at the title if you wan...
