Rambus shares surge after Supreme Court victory

[UNCjigga]

Infineon just got pwned.

Link.

38% surge (stock rose $7.07 to close at $25.80 for the day.) Not bad for one day's work...

Is "pwned" a good thing?

 

[ViRGE]

Not in this case. Let's try "fvck".

 

[xxxxxJohnGaltxxxxx]

..so this is not "phat" or dope?

It is not a "Supreme Court victory" when the court declines hearing the case.

Could someone please tell me what "pwned" is? I see this a lot from internet kiddies and like to stay current on my netbonics.

I believe it is a derivation of "owned" meaning to have dramatically had the upper hand in some argument, made a great insult, or to have hacked someones computer (or h4x0r3d), . Which then in kiddie speak it is popular to insert characters or other letters...

example: "shut up b1tch, i pwn j00, j00 r n0t 31337"

:gift:

Its one of those letter transposition things. pwned=owned. As in "I own you". "you got owned"

Screw these Companies and the Courts for allowing them to Rape and Own the World.

It is clear these Companies are powerful enough and rich enough to buy the decisions of the Courts as well as the Politicians.

Aren't you being just a bit hysterical here? Because the courts don't share your views on this you assume they have been somehow bought? This is only one case out of many involving Rambus and as the article makes clear no one is yet predicting how this all my turn out in the end.

Are you a legal scholar? Do you know anything about why the Supreme Court decides whether or not to hear a case? Do you know anything about patent law? Did you read the original opinion from the Court of Appeals? If so, please explain why you hold this opinion. If not, kindly keep your uninformed knee-jerk reaction to yourself.

 

[rjain]

Better yet, does dmcowen even know what the decision of the Supreme Court even means?
