Parent article: Apple's patent attack

Sigh. One of the biggest bummers about legal stuff is the way it makes everybody feel they need to shut up. I have, over the years, gotten a lot more careful when I do an article like this, especially with regard to saying that specific patents might read on Linux. What a pain if I can't even be snide.

Should somebody try to enter my comments as evidence, I'll happily show up to clarify what I meant...

I suggest you to put the sarcastic expressions on double quotes.

LWN wouldn't be such a joy without the occasional snidity.

You know, I just glanced at that comment and thought maybe Jon had resorted
to taking pictures of himself and putting it on the website ;)
