Er, you worked for the new SCO? That IP clearinghouse didn’t need Groklaw to make people hate them.

The problem was SCO’s own legal team and C Suite.

I have nothing but respect for the original SCO, but I have a hard time seeing the one that sued IBM as much more than a side business to being an IP holding company that turned out to be holding less IP than they thought.

They were originally designed for cleaning ears by someone who didn’t know how the inside of an ear worked.

That said, I’ve used them twice today already to clean the outer ear area AND to fish an errant piece of wax out of my ear canal.

One problem is that part of a functional ear that helps it self-clean is a bunch of tiny hairs that a Q Tip can damage. Another problem is that you don’t want to poke anything solid anywhere near your ear drum, because tou can permanently damage the sensitive components at the end of the ear canal.

Thing is, Gen-X has always felt invisible and under appreciated. And for good reason. This shouldn’t be a new realization.

So… over 50s are starting to face the reality that under-50s have been dealing with since the over-50s were hunting for their first job?

Of course this is the Patnou account again.
