Fonts are different from #TypeFaces.
#Font is a subset of a typeface including size (some say traits like Italic or Bold). But scalable fonts blur that a bit. Amiga fonts have color, sparkle, reveal, pattern. texture, etc. All possible in 1985. #Font

Recall the dirtbag patent on using the XOR logical operation to create "reverse video" for the blinking cursor. He didn't invent the XOR gate. There was nothing novel about the idea. #Commodore fought this and reportedly took major damage leading to loss of the #Amiga future (shit wintel instead).
Patent trolls couldn’t kill patent challenges in Congress. They couldn’t kill them in court. Now the Patent Office is trying to do it for them. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...
The Patent Office Is About To Make Bad Patents Untouchable
The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has proposed new rules that would effectively end the public’s ability to challenge improperly granted patents at the Patent Office itself. We need EFF

There’s a lot of misinformation out there about #CEQA (the California Environmental Quality Act). As special interest groups continue to pressure lawmakers to dismantle the law, it’s important to know how it works.

New York is not immune from Trump White House pressure. The state just OKed an underwater natural gas pipeline in exchange for lifting a blockade on an offshore wind project, coincidentally on the day that Elise Stefanik announced her run for governor against Kathy Hochul. Over to you, New Jersey.
State Permits Trump-Backed Natural Gas Pipeline in New York Waters
The Williams pipeline would span 17 miles near the Rockaways and Staten Island. The state had rejected the project three times previously.
