My question is this:

A. IS the computer business infringing on the rights of Nissan Motors?

B. Is the computer business trying to inflict harm or consequential damages on Nissan motors?

C. Why did Nissan Motors, if they were truly interested in Domain names, not register the domain name, before Nissan Computers?

D. Must the big company always win?

Thanks

BB

I think this guy is a nut. He owns a third rate computer company that no-one has ever heard of before and now he wants national attention over what amounts to a pimple. I bet he gets about 6 hits a month at that site. It isn't even very well done.

If he were smart, he would have asked Nissan what the domain was worth to them and sold it. Then he can register www.nissancomputers.com. He'd be none the worse for wear and have a few sheckles to boot.

I don't own a Nissan and I'm not saying Nissan Motors is in the right . . . but I still think the guy is stupid if he even spent $10 on this issue. It's a no-brainer.

One other thing . . . .

Eminent Domain isn't anything new, just about every State and Local Government makes use of this practice. If they didn't, then one or two people could screw the Government or a Business concern by holding out for a grossly inflated amount. Do you realize how hard it is for a Community to put together the volume of land required for this plant? It's obviously a boon to the area in terms of taxes and employment.

In the US, the Government is "The People." The elected officials look out for the big picture. They are their to make sure that the actions of Government serve the public good. As long as the price for the land is determined using sound assessments, emminent domain is called for here.

I found this Passage particularly telling . . .

But, it was Burns who determined that nine black landowners ? for their combined 175 acres purchased at barely $3 million, did not deserve more than Dinkins alone got for his 73 acres and timber at $4.4 million.
The mention of timber leads me to believe that there is more to this story than meets the eye. If the residents who received $24,500 per acre owned pasture and Dinkins owned land that was covered with trees that could be or were being harvested, then his property would be worth more. But they don't say directly.
While it is not about the money for the Archies and Bouldins, they are clearly not stupid about the true value of their land and homes. And the state also now knows it. These landowners are in court fighting to force eminent domain off the table on behalf of every landowner seeking justice, fairness, and equity.

Nope, they're not stupid . . . they probably made a killing. And they don't want the courts to decide that they should get $60,000 per acre . . . they want to dismantle emminent domain. They probably didn't want to leave or are angry because they couldn't "squeeze" Nissan.

I'm skeptical of this story, it plays on the emotions of others and doen't tell yje whole dtory I'd wager.

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By zikalify · Posted

      Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates by Paul Hill Microsoft has just announced that starting with Edge 152, it will be moving to a two-week release cycle for faster, smaller updates. This faster release cadence will begin on August 27. This change comes just several months after Microsoft switched Visual Studio Code to weekly updates. The company said that the Extended Stable releases will remain on an eight-week cycle and that no admin changes are needed to experience the faster release cycle on the Stable channel. The new two-week release cycle will enable the faster delivery of security updates and platform improvements, all while reducing the size and complexity of individual updates. Microsoft claims that organizations will benefit from this change as it offers predictable validation cycles. For organizations that prefer a “more deliberate pace”, the Extended Stable channel remains an option. This change will affect Edge Stable releases on Windows, macOS, Linux, and mobile. The Extended Stable channel will continue to be updated every eight weeks, or every fourth Stable release, for example: versions 152, 156, 160, and 164. The Extended Stable could be a good option for organizations that don’t want the latest updates twice a month and don’t want as much hassle constantly updating browsers. In the case of Visual Studio Code, many of the updates being pushed by Microsoft are AI-related. As we all know, Microsoft Edge has a lot of AI features, so we could see Microsoft pushing more AI, thanks to the faster cycles. On the flip side, quicker releases could mean faster security updates, which is beneficial in a world where AI systems are hunting for software exploits. What do you think? Let us know in the comments. For more updates on Edge, be sure to follow Neowin's coverage. In May alone, we reported on Edge offering in-browser pop-ups to assist users with website compatibility issues, that Edge was losing Copilot Mode, and that Microsoft had fixed a plain-text password bug in Edge.

      not yet, because at the moment it is not a threat to MS, if and I mean if it did become a threat to MS Office, then it may be a different thing. MS don't like competition
    • Zen Browser 1.21b

      By Copernic · Posted

      Zen Browser 1.21b by Razvan Serea Zen Browser is a privacy-focused, open-source web browser built on Mozilla Firefox, offering users a secure and customizable browsing experience. It emphasizes privacy by blocking trackers, ads, and ensuring your data isn't collected. With Zen Mods, users can enhance their browser experience with various customization options, including features like split views and vertical tabs. The browser is designed for efficiency, providing fast browsing speeds and a lightweight interface. Zen Browser prioritizes user control over the browsing experience, offering a minimal yet powerful alternative to traditional web browsers while keeping your online activity private. Zen Browser’s DRM limitation Zen Browser currently lacks support for DRM-protected content, meaning streaming services like Netflix and HBO Max are inaccessible. This is due to the absence of a Widevine license, which requires significant costs and is financially unfeasible for the developer. Additionally, applying for this license would require Zen to be part of a larger company, similar to Mozilla or Brave. Therefore, DRM-protected media won't be supported in Zen Browser for the foreseeable future. Zen Browser offers features that improve user experience, privacy, and customization: Privacy-Focused: Blocks trackers and minimizes data collection. Automatic Updates: Keeps the browser updated with security patches. Zen Mods: Customizable themes and layouts. Workspaces: Organize tabs into different workspaces. Compact Mode: Maximizes screen space by minimizing UI elements. Zen Glance: Quick website previews. Split Views: View multiple tabs in the same window. Sidebar: Access bookmarks and tools quickly. Vertical Tabs: Manage tabs vertically. Container Tabs: Separate browsing sessions. Fast Profile Switcher: Switch between profiles easily. Tab Folders: Organize tabs into folders. Customizable UI: Personalize browser interface. Security Features: Inherits Firefox’s robust security. Fast Performance: Lightweight and optimized for speed. Zen Mods Customization: Deep customization with mods. Quick Access: Easy access to favorite websites. Open Source: Built on Mozilla Firefox with community collaboration. Community-Driven: Active development and feedback from users. GitHub Repository: Contribute and review the source code. Zen Browser 1.21b changelog: New Features Updated to Firefox 151.0.4 Added 'Space Routing', a new feature that allows you to route links to a specific Space. To get started, click on the three dots in your Space name and click on 'Space Routing Settings'. Fixes Fixed extension-opened tabs not being created with the correct container (#14100) Fixed a bug with the Boosts editor having the wrong theme colors (#14099) Improved overflowing space icons being inaccessible and improved the feeling when hovering over them (#13747) Other minor bug fixes and improvements Download: Zen Browser | 89.8 MB (Open Source) Download: Zen Browser ARM64 | Other Operating Systems View: Zen Browser Home Page | Screenshots 1 | 2 | Reddit Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
