schestowitzDr. Schestowitz,Apr 26 06:23
schestowitzIt has been brought to my attention by my client, GTX Corp. (www.gtxcorp.com) that you continue to "blog" via your website techrights.org, making reference to my client, when in retrospect you are confusing my client GTX Corp. with an entirely different company, GTX Corporation. The company in which you're attempting to blog about is in fact GTX Corporation of Scottsdale, AZ. (GTX.com). I would like to think that this misunderstanding isApr 26 06:23
schestowitzindeed a sincere mistake, confusing two companies that are identical in name. However, this mistake, though innocent, has become problematic for my client and quite frankly has brought about grave concerns as my client now grapples with the irreprehensible fear of fiscal demise as well as public scrutiny. Such implications of yours, though false and Ludacris have shown themselves to be quite damaging.Apr 26 06:23
schestowitzI implore you to cease and desist IMMEDIATELY  in referencing my client within your blogs. Such behavior, though potentially innocent, is antagonizing and inviting of civil litigation that shall pursue punitive damages on the grounds of misrepresentation, including but not limited to defamation of character, slander, misguided judgement and false accusation. again, I REPEAT, STAND DOWN in attacking, making reference to or discussing my clientApr 26 06:23
schestowitzin ANY way, shape or form as my client is NOT the source or point of origin for your intended assault. I am available to speak via telephone if you find this correspondence to be perplexing in any manner.Apr 26 06:23

schestowitz It is nice for UK to have ratified before Brexit, but I still fail to understand why UK can stay in the UPC once it has left the EU after Brexit.Apr 26 22:49
schestowitzI have seen a lot of of comments on the topic in which it was stated that this is possible. My doubts however remain.Apr 26 22:49
schestowitzHow is this possible if the UK will not accept the the jurisdiction of the CJEU?Apr 26 22:49
schestowitzHow can the CJEU accept a prejudicial question from a court from a non-EU member state?Apr 26 22:49
schestowitzHow to enforce a judgement of the UPC in another country in the UPC and vice versa. By leaving the EU, Brussels does not apply any longer.Apr 26 22:49
schestowitzIt is only once convincing replies to these fundamental questions will have been given that I will possibly believe that UK can remain in the UPC as a non-EU member state!Apr 26 22:49
schestowitzI am not against harmonisation of IP practices in Europe, on the contrary, but I do not like to be taken for a ride.Apr 26 22:49
schestowitzIt is neither correct nor fair to put pressure on the GFCC. In any case there are questions before it about the boards of appeal of the EPO. I guess that those are on the pile of pending cases before the question on the UPC will be dealt with.Apr 26 22:49

schestowitz <p>This review is going to be a little bit different from others in that I am completely unfamiliar with the modern stock Ubuntu desktop since GNOME 2 was abandoned. I started on Ubuntu back in the "badger" days when it was basically a lightly modified GNOME 2 desktop. Once Ubuntu's default desktop switched to Unity and GNOME 3 was released at about the same time, I found immediately that neither of them would work for me. So I bouncedApr 28 15:05
schestowitzaround a bit between various desktops like Cinnamon and MATE before finally settling on XFCE via Xubuntu over the past few years. It's not quite where GNOME 2 was before it was abandoned but it's pretty darn close. Today, we're going to see if Ubuntu 18.04 ("Bionic Beaver" or as I like to call it, "The Beav") and its GNOME 3 desktop is usable for someone as finicky as me. </p>Apr 28 15:05
